From what I've seen it is a defective design that was copied to perfection so I'd guess all of them, starting with the authentic Xeta will have the same problem .

Grimm Kit AIO arrived and I'm shipping my Odis Eros out today in trade for a VWM Integra!
Excited to try both...
Grimm Kit uses Nautilus style coils and I have a RBA head on the way on the slow boat. I doubt it, but it may replace my Bantam for my work vape. It's lighter and has similar battery life to an 18350.
Integra literally just fell into my lap. I've been wanting to try one but had zero interest in trying to track one down. I'll keep you guys posted. If I decide to keep it one of my Dvarws may be going bye-bye.

Yes, this.
I have an SXK and a YFTK and I can't tell them apart. There's a guy on POTV who has an authentic and a YFTK and he says he can't tell them apart either. It is avoidable though.

so, i polished one of the original doors. still not a fan, but they do look way better. these pics "do not" do it justice.
if you like these doors, i think you will like them way more.
oh, there is some glare in all of these pics, so the sheen/color looks off in places

Settle down, son.
Mine's been sitting in Chicago for 7 days after being released from customs on the 29th. I assume it's actually left Chicago and in transit with my "Delivery Service Provider" but I'm only 500 miles from Chicago.
The Chicago international sorting facility is the worst. I've had a couple sit there for 7-10 days myself. It's practically a foreign embassy until they send it on.
Don't forget to put it on Escribe and grab that international firmware upgrade guys. This newest run may already have it though.

what works well on G10 to give a nice polished look is Carnuba wax...
You can do a progression of micro-mesh after loading the G10 up with wax... but before hand, I think you'd run the risk of actually making the canvas part of the G10 splinter within the bond.
Once you loaded up and done a few buffing passes you can do a coat of mineral oil.

yeah. i had ASSumed that it haad paassed through there. then i looked at it again, and thought no, thats to good to be truee.
i don't have any wax
or i would try it. after buffing it, i had to touch up a rough spot with 10000 sandpaper, it scuffed the fucck out of it
I'm not sure what the international upgrade even is,but i doubt the new ones have it.My orange one shows the board was programmed in May,when i connected it to escribe,right off it popped up as having an update available.
I don't think the international upgrade does anything for a DNA 60. It enables Replay on the 75C and 250C, but that's the only reason of which I'm aware to have it.
Oh, and this Grimm Kit is the best pod/AIO I've ever used. Variable wattage/voltage and uses BVC style coils. Beats the shit out of the Orion, Pal 2, and the Nord.

My understanding is that while the Escribe package is the same for all Escribe capable boards, the interface and embedded firmware for each board is different. It reads the board ID and loads the interface and checks for firmware upgrades for that board. Not to be a smart guy, but the firmware for the 60 is for the 60 and for the 75C is for that board and so on. One Escribe download for all though. Which is actually a very good way to do it imho.
I can't recall the differences offhand now, but the international version is not bound by the limitations of our laws, which Evolv is attempting to obey.
Lemme clarify this. I'm not trying to tell anybody what to do.
Software development is tedious and expensive. If a company releases new firmware for a device, not just vape stuff, any device, the vast majority of the time, it's a for a good reason, even if I don't immediately know what it is and therefore I want it
It could be totally invisible under the hood efficiency or something. That said, it's not like your mod won't work without it. Also, DNA circuits have the ability to downgrade to a previous version in the highly unlikely event that some function is compromised or there is some other issue.
Maybe this is another quirk in the mind of a computer guy. If there's a FIRMWARE upgrade, I want it. That's not the same as PC operating system updates from Microsoft, many of which I could happily live without.
I can't like that, but it's probably waiting to get on the boat
Or on the boat waiting for it to fill up.
They're just drip tips but they're throwing off all my matchy matchy-ness lolI can't like that, but it's probably waiting to get on the boat

Right. I guess I was thinking in terms of the BB, so DNA 60 and not really needing those extra features as there would be no real benefit for that board specifically.

is it saying "pre-shipment" ?
are you tracking on usps ? mine said pre-shipment right up until it was here in town.
all the stuff i ordered was 24hr ship = yeah, i know, but thats what it said.
Doesn't matter, he's fasttech Jinx'd.
They throw his order in a cart and push it to the back for a couple weeks.

So what do you mean "tracking on usps" for a 3f or FT shipment? Are you inferring there's a way to find the USPS tracking number for my Wanb Express or 4PX shipment?
in english, please.
that depends on the carrier. just put the # in usps and see what happens.
That was
Anyway, there are all types of knives.

All I get is an error. Are you saying you've done this?
Have you tried it with the rba yet?I don't think the international upgrade does anything for a DNA 60. It enables Replay on the 75C and 250C, but that's the only reason of which I'm aware to have it.

Been meaning to ask you knive folks....
My F-I-L gave me this for my birthday. I know from looking it up it's nothing super nice or expensive, but I really lIike it. It seems to be really well built and super sharp (compared to the junk I own). Know anything about it? Also, front flipper I'm guessing?

It’s a manual.
Crkt make some decent knives, especially the ones made by Vox Naes
A sharp knife is a good knife.
These are my only knives now, sold and gave away my other ones.

maybe it isn't coming usps, or it just isn't in the system, yet, if ever.
yes, many times. the tracking # FT sent me linked directly to usps.
What is a front flipper then?It’s a manual.

Even though it originated with another shipper (4px in China)? For instance, my package from 3fvape was shipped on DHL, has cleared customs in Chicago, went to "DHL Ecommerce Facility", and has been "Tendered to delivery service provide" which I assume is USPS. Maybe not, maybe it will come the last mile on DHL.
How can you tell USPS what you're looking for?
Front flippers have a forward tab on the blade, regular flippers the tab is 90* of the blade

Thanks. I'll give them a call tomorrow. Honest, I'm not a luddite. Honest. At least I didn't think I was.
i think all of them start with a china shipper, then are handed off to usps. i got a dhl one time, but it was air, got it in 3 days, dhl the whole way. but really god only knows how many ways they have to get shit to us.
if you have a tracking #, put it in there. they either know about it, or they don't.
"origin post is preparing shipment" is USPS saying they haven't received it yet. 17track will tell you what's going on with it in China or other parts of the world.
It will only show up on the USPS tracker once they have it over here.

No the RBA is a seperate purchase en route from 3F. Hippovape (wtf?) makes it and it fits the Pal 2 and a few other AIO systems that use a BVC style coil.

Wow, wtf just happened? Order placed Oct. 27th at 3F, package recieved today?????
Never seen anything like it. Down side....... Drunk order. Thought I got 3 vapeshells, one Xeta. Turns out (through my fault not theirs) I ordered 2 Xeta's and whatever the hell these other two things are 
Ah well, needed the Xeta, Vapeshells are just back ups. Can get a few more...
Who knows, maybe I'll like this tank. Quick look it takes BVC coils I believe

Hmm, that's interesting. Might take me a bit to get to it, but sounds like it might be kinda cool. Now I'm wondering if "tell" ans "shell" is where my mistake was. Especially since it probably mentioned vapeshell in the description
