I traded a shiny for a not at all shiny. Does that mean I owe myself one? Makes one wonder...

@Huckleberried Allow me to be an enabler, Yes you must replace the shiny object. The penalty for not doing so is two shiny objects...:kickbutt:BTW I mixed up some "Golden Oreo Cheesecake".... Incredible.

Still has sheriff's to enforce county laws, lol
Maybe Orange county is just one big city?

Maybe I'm splitting hairs and being pissy from depriving myself of something nice and shiny to vape :D

I know how that goes. When I pre-ordered this, the release date was Dec 8th.

Any word on whether or not you'll be in the first batch or the one in March?

If I'm reading it correctly, there only is one batch here. I think they're saying that the drones are done except for the chips, but I could be completely wrong

Also, here's a message they sent me earlier informing me of a prior delay due to change from Ultem to Lexan where they say only one batch has been confirmed. That doesn't mean only one will be done but...

I heard they were releasing a limited batch (This month I think) and then the second that has a modification will begin going out in March

I could be mis-remembering that....

Pre-order sucks.

Every time I pre order I swear never again - until I do :cloud:
I ordinarily don't, but I had been kicking myself for not getting the first Drone and was worried the 250C would sell out instantly. I really don't mind the wait as long as I'm getting one.

Well I certainly hope it is worth the wait!

That's one of the cleanest shinies I think I've seen!

Thx! It's kinda rare, even when it was new and competing with the Hades and such...but it's a frickin' beast. No Vdrop at all...full copper end to end. Case is SS and brass. (May possibly be SS plated copper? It's heavy.)

The switch is a mechanical cantilever system I can't even begin to describe...sorta between a GUS and a Nanos...if that makes any sense.

The only video of it I can find is in French...

Ohhhhhh, I have to have that voltage reader :idea:

I don't speak French, but this guy looks like a really solid reviewer and that looks like a magnificent tube design.

@The Cromwell Looky what I did!!! :bliss::bliss:

20190128_205131.jpg

I used it for a couple weeks. Then I was cleaning it so I had it soaking in hot water. I decided to try one last time while it was good and wet. So I threw on some latex gloves and with a simple twist and tug it came right off! :eek: :D

Nope, but my family members and wife have made fun of me for my mouth expressions when concentrating on something :)

Me, too. I used to get it bad from cousins when I was little.

My mother, though, if I told her I couldn't get something to work, she'd always tell me that I wasn't holding my mouth right. :D

Well I had gotten pretty excited about a Zeus I had ordered, but this is what showed up.

Attached was this note:

I was sad, and most people will think I'm crazy.

Haven't decided what I'm doing with this, yet.
Nope I do not think you are crazy.
I would be pissed not sad.
They have no right to do that.
Either give you what your ordered or refund your money.
They should also refund you whatever postage it costs to send it back to them.

They would have to kiss my bum a lot for me to order from them again.

The last time there was an issue, they did contact me. They offered an upgrade on something that was way outta my vaping ballpark, I accepted a refund. I do wish they'd done the same on this order. I am planning on contacting them, absolutely. Was super bummed they oversold the Zeus. I've never had issues with this vendor before, I've always recommended them in the past. I hate when vendors don't upgrade their inventory. Had the same happen with a couple other places. :(

If nothing else, I can offer it for a trade in our Hardware area.... sigh. We'll see what happens.

@BobsHere, funny you mentioned @MrMeowgi.... he's selling me his Zeus, LOL.

I gave my son a dual-coil, and if I don't see him using it pretty soon, I want it back!

I swear, he and I do not see eye to eye on ANYTHING related to vaping.
