That sucks
Feel Better!Hope everyone is feeling better than I am today. Got a cold and am blowing through Kleenex like nobody's business!
Old cellphone, rip it apart and get your chops up to speed.Seems like everything else is salvageable - I'll post a pic for everyone to decide...
Soldering skills are rusty at best - haven't had any reason to solder anything in a long time.
Well, that just means I need to get a soldering kit first. And a button. And a fat daddy connection. And wires. Let's not forget about the old cellphone! LOLOld cellphone, rip it apart and get your chops up to speed.
Also you have the box time to hunt for buttons and a fat daddy connection and heavier gauge wires and BINGO a pretty hardcore dna set up.
Here's what it looks like:
I'm afraid to put a battery back in and see if it still works.
Can I even (still) use the battery that came out of it?!
HahaIt looks like a lot of hot glue there.
The board looks pretty fried. I wouldn't try to use it again. I can't comment on the battery, not enough knowledge, too much potential danger. Sorry for the rough luck. The good news is there seems to be plenty of room to work with if you want to get a new chip.Here's what it looks like:

Interesting stuff. How'd you decide to start doing that? Are there others doing it, or are you the trend setter?Random thread? Oh yeah, I just linked my creations in one of my threads to explain my avatar. Check Em out, hope you like them! http://m.imgur.com/a/i4HdS
Started when I was around 12. Didn't have many action figures, and the ones I did have were non-articulated as hell. So, I made own figures by weaving twist ties together. No idea how I figured it out, it happened pretty organically. After posting on reddit, I found out I'm not alone, but mine seem to be very different than any others I have seen. I'm waaaay out of practice making these, doubt I could make the smaller ones so easily now. But I can still do it.Interesting stuff. How'd you decide to start doing that?

I just received my order from VW can't wait to try them!!! Do I need to let them steep or are the good to go?
Looks like the battery's clean - no marks or bulges or anything. Where to get building supplies and the board...?Unless the battery vented or has a scorch mark in the side of it... yes you can use it.
I would not put a battery back in that. Holy lacking shrink wrap and over hot glue... you can see where the board was shorting out against the hot glue which caused a rather hot and prolonged arc to the wall between the board and battery.
the box is fine minus the scorch mark, I would scrap the guts and rebuild but that is just me. I would have been sweating bullets and shitting twinkies over those WTF bare wire battery contacts.
In other news... VAPEMAIL! Just received my order and I'm unpacking as we speak. @VaporWatch packs these things like the valuable specimen that they are... will try to post a pic later
I needed something to turn this frown upside down and this just did.lucky bastards
Agent orange, WTF, 12:50 AND TEFLON DON what to try firstAll Vaping Watch juices are steeped to perfection and completely ready to be vaped right out of the mailbox. What juices did you end up getting?

I've only ever used simple 3 post drippers. Of those I've tried, I definitely like the TOBH clone the best. Really easy to build. Good airflow.Whats a good rebuildable for someone just starting to use them? Is a Penelope obsolete now?? I have 1 collecting dust but i have seen some pretty nice ones lately

The x looks really nice. That's on the Christmas list for sure.The cloud chasers had a thread going on and on about the mutation x, I have no personal experience, but will be keeping it on my list unless something else knocks it off. Air holes + a good deck to build on are my wants for my first RBA.
Howdy Y'all!
So, we just ended the "Huge Mega Monster Contest" and the results are coming soon.
I wanted to have a place that stirs up discussion and general chat but also gives me somewhere to go when I just feel like giving stuff away. So here's the deal....I will, at random times, pop in here and choose an individual or a post for a prize. What's the prize? Well, it really could be anything from a free driptip to a MVP to a Provari to a shopping spree! Basically, I'm saying it could be whatever I think of at the time! I will promise one thing......I promise I will give away at least one (1) prize worth $200 or more in this thread every month!
I'm not gonna set a specific time or number of posts or anything like that.......I'm going to do this totally randomly. I might pick a numbered post or a person....I might do it in the middle of the night or at lunchtime or anytime in between.
SO! Come on in, hang out.....chat about whatever in the world you want to! Who knows.....you just might win something really cool!
