Pretty stoked...my Lawless Drip Tip for the Flave came in. No idea if it truly matches though...had to take the word of the guy at Lawless lol...Mild tritanopia and protanopia... why most of my clothes are gray/black/dark blue... Not color blind ( Like no color) , more I can't tell like colors apart in the slightest...put Blue against a white back ground...I can see it...same with Red or Green...give me the Ishihara color blind test and yeah can't see any of those fucking numbers lol... same when we painted the house and wife showed me a few different gray and cream swatches, I was like, " Get that shit out of here... just pick one" lol

Just did the one here at http://colorvisiontesting.com/ishihara.htm of the 8 I only saw the first one lol "16" LOL

Poor guy at Lawless...he messaged me earlier last week..." I'm having a bitch of a time getting that double step down right so the tip fits"...well he nailed it. fits perfect...probably why it took nearly a month for me to get... poor dude probably turned at least a few and kept putting mine off after a few failed attempts to finish others... doh

Sorry for my wall of text...haha

Floris has black 2x700 enclosures for sale!!!

Edit: His site keeps crashing on me when I go to look at his Little Orca Doors. It's driving me bonkers! Anyone have a solution? I'm trying to look at the site on my phone.

Grab a laptop or wait out the resets, the images can't load quickly enough on your phone and it wants to reload over and over.
-just my personal experience.
If you're debating colors, his Facebook page has them listed someplace with good pictures.

Weird. It just reloads over and over again when I visit the page for the doors until Safari gives me an error saying the page had a recurring problem. Looks like I'll be taking minimalsaint's advice and checking them on his FB page.

My iPhone is jailbroken and I have some tweaks that speed it up...and others to prevent scripting and redirects etc...

Oh that explains it. I used to have my iPhone 4 jail broken but it made it too unstable and I constantly had to restart the springboard.

But yeah I was looking for the red frosted door and I found pick of it on the ol' BookFace. Thanks for offering to help though!

Yup wraith is keeping me company. Rather use the fuchai. I saved those batteries for the wraith and pulse 22. Vaped fruit punch vapade and Ew. I rather have my grape or try the blue berry. But hungry for some strong menthol since I have to deal with the warm heat =_= any recommendations? I need to feel like I'm back in mountains in Salt Lake city
Menthol crystals off ebay, or a health food shop. 1 tsp in 10 ml of PG. Dissolve, then use that as concentrate.

You should 1kg crystals for 30 bucks, which will last several lifetimes.

Get yourself some method flavoring (usually 10% solution) from a DIY supply and go nuts on your favorite liquids.
Menthol is my Frank's red hot.
I put that shit in everything.

Edit: @jasonandsarah straight up beat me to this idea.
My wife enjoys menthol and I do this trick for her. She won't change her own coils or even fill her own tank lol so yeah I have to do it for her. Whatever keeps her off the stinkies though!

No literally I love menthol too much. I buy juice with it. But sometimes, the juice overcomes it lol

Cool thing is. There is a DIY shop down the road. I think once everything gets back to normal, I'm going to stop by there and make a mixture in 70/30 of menthol & watermelon maybe.

You might want to try Argentium while you're at it. Not as soft as pure silver but slightly higher silver content than sterling. Doesn't oxidize as quick as sterling either.

Not a good choice. Germanium drastically reduces the conductivity of silver and is not as efrficient as Sterling Silver which is made with copper. Copper being the 2nd most conductive metal on the planet has molecules that fit silver molecules like a glove and actually fill in the gaps allowing for what is normally 2 soft metals to become a much harder metal while still keeping its excellent conductive properties.

Yes, i know this is a old comment but it appears it was never quite answered thoroughly.

Thank you for the reply, at the time I made it I wasn't thinking conductivity, I was thinking tarnish. ...

Conductivity should not be much of an issue at all with the size of straps they use in the little printed mech squonkers.

And here i thought you were all exagerating about squonking... No, no the craze is very real. Must not spend, must not spend :smoke:

Most people lose more voltage in their battery / atty pin / build than would matter with contact material.
Yep Mooch did an article/post over on Reddit saying that the material of the body in a tube mech mod did not really matter as to voltage drop as it was large enough to drop the resistance way down.
Voltage drops in mechs are 99% at the mechanical contact points. Threads, switches, 510 connector, battery contacts, etc.

My thought is to get the most corrosion resistant material.
Less maintenance and better more consistent performance.

FT have an 80w 3d printed yilong mod up now

not for me, but looks a viable option

LG422 Sterling has been the best material I've found to resist fouling.
I'm not getting into the "silver vs. silver" pissing match that always seems to abound with contacts, it's just my personal experience.

They also have a Yiloong Geyscano 50w squonk mod for like $58.
I got one for $17 last year and it is pretty crappy.
The one they have says 3D printed but the description says aluminum body construction.

Ohh wait it has a 3D printed door....
Otherwise looks exactly like mine.

Correct. In the end, the adage "it is only as strong as its weakest link" holds true, for the most part. Silver will most definitely enhance performance but not necessarily so much or noticeable if it is simply your silver plated contact on your RDA. And don't get me started about "gold plated" contacts...Not sure if i can say it, but people mind-fuck themselves every day over yellow fever in the vape world...Ridiculous.

Bullocks! My Fools Gold Colored Plated Galvanized Steel Contacts from Fuck Face China is worth every bit of Unappreciable (Typo on purpose to enforce validity) difference of Copper alone! Don't tell me I am wrong damn it when I have my own little world of people in my head saying different! lol

Also just made a ejuice of: cantaloupe /watermelon/ and menthol ^w^. Going to let it steep for a week or two can't wait.

The microinch of gold plating does keep the copper from turning green as fast :)

Glad you got one (two)! Mine should be here tomorrow but, alas, I may not have time to play. I'll see if I can get some pics posted.

Last time I bought two of something new without trying it first I regretted it, so we'll see :confused:

From everything I've read I've gathered that if you like the Hadaly, you're going to love the Entheon. Fingers crossed!!

Dang!



That is what is keeping me from buying it...Hadaly was just a tad to tight of a draw for me

Plus my pennies are stashing for the 22mm Flave :D

That will most likely be the next one I get if I can't score a Haku.

Definitely on the list once we can get one, lol

I just put one in the cart and went to pay, and the cart was empty :headbang:

Worried that I got there too late.

So, went back, added another and went to pay and both were in the cart - so a split second decision said YES and here we are:cloud:
