Yes, I to be. There is always some kind of story out there which you can hang a hat on, which then further conveys the massage, narrative, data. I recently learned a bit regarding information sciences. Information is data collected and arranged in a narrative to convey a message, entertain, teach, raise or destroy morale, proffer an example (which goes to teaching again). Stories are how we communicate. Other animals might tell stories as well, we've not deciphered them if they do. We know other animals do talk though and are empathetic. Can they gather data and forge it into information? Not sure.
Purple? Hm, no don't think purple would go well with stainless steel, brass. *chuckles* At $29.95 too, *smh* I'm getting from Fast Tech at less than $5.00 for each unit.
Alliteration? Watched a show done by National Geographic with the past few days. It was called Killing Jesus before I'm blasted over that title, I didn't choose it nor does it convey all the negative it might be thought to convey. At any rate it follows Jesus from his birth to his death, and sticks very close to the biblical story of the Christian faith. I was surprised it was done by National Geographic as they usually err on being secular and scientific. The story reminded me of how Mennonites came to be. They come from Simon, later named Peter by Jesus. Peter is the "fisher of men". He was to cast a net, pray, bring men to faith in Jesus who then was intermediary to G*d. Story telling, alliteration is like fishing in that manner. Once you learn to fish you're not able to not do it.
Alright, out of that religious haze. I may not be this or that. I do know a difference from some of the darker places I've been and some of the lighter places. It goes on to say that I much rather see folks go to the lighter places. We're in the 21st century, why on Earth do we need war any longer? Why do children starve? These are a bit rhetorical and I have some inkling why but my point to ask them is, we have three major world religions all teaching about abundance and love, light. What the blessed Hell are we still doing handling dark caveman issues? We know better. We been given better stories that supply better examples. When do we learn?
*steps down and kicks ...
... across the auditorium and forbids himself from even looking in its direction for a month* So, I might "fish" now and again but only to teach others to fish and bring us all to lighter places. Yes, I'm alliterate seemingly constantly despite only change being immortal and eternal. "Nobody wants to live forever", is a catchy refrain. I find far too many do though, want and do live forever. Me? I'll just saunter off into the shades, crank out my work and move to the next thing, on and on, and on, ... Not sure I care if I live forever or not. For now, I need some coffee. Think I'll, ...
I bet Trinity Glass Hardware will carry the "Hybrid" caps in colors too. $12 for a glass top cap isn't as much when you can get a clone for less than $5. $50 for authentic from them though is kind of rough. I can save $33 get a glass & stainless, a stainless, a stainless & Ultem caps. Granted I won't have the Trinity Glass Hardware logos but for that savings, do I need 'em?
Okay, okay, alright, yeah yeah, I'm a ...
That's a beauty! They're practically twins.Nice setup. Reminds me a bit of this, which hasn't changed in quite a while...
I keep thinking about making this one a "carry around" mod - but haven't quite yet.
Carry around meaning, I have about 4 or so that are grab-n-go, from running errands to getting packed to fly (almost every week lately).
They get beat up a bit; they have to be reliable and/or repairable; they get used a lot...

It's been sitting awhile so I decided to try it out again and see if I want to keep it or trade/sell it.
Definitely a looker and feels nice in the hand!

You won't get an argument from me. I'm quite fond of many of the clones I have from FT and eBay. Have a ShenRay something or other at home now that I haven't had time to admire yet.
Still say that fans of single coils should try the clone of the Vicious Ant Radius. Try as I may, I cannot find a thing wrong with it.
I get why clones piss off original maker's. But truly believe if they come out with a clone days after the original they are probably all made in China anyway.You won't get an argument from me.

I would wager 90% of all "High End" so called "Modders" have their stuff made in China...
Especially the RDA "Modders" I am convinced 98% of them have their design rights forfeited cause they chose to utilize China.
I really wish they would start calling themselves "Designers" rather than "Modders"

There are already clones being sold for the Zeus X. Saw some on eBay yesterday. Probably come off the same production line as the authentics. Otherwise, how could they have machining ready to go that quickly?

That's some nice twins to have!
I saw that you got your 24ga n80. Have you tried a coil yet?

Not yet. I just threw in one of my premade fused claptons for now. I'll tinker on my weekend off coming up.

Yep, yep, yep. Kind of makes me wonder the old "who made who", borrowing from AC/DC. Well, need to collect and escort garbage out.

I have some AC/DC you can KEEP. No need to borrow.
(not my thing, if you kwim. and seriously, I really don't have any. Just wanted to say that, in a pissy frame of mind today. It's an outlet, what can I say?)
I think authentics go out the front door and clones out the back....
Naaah! They go out the same door, they just get put in different boxes!

That's because they were put in the wrong box at the factory!
Well, I don't care for Rap/HipHop/Ska much either. Might, or might not surprise you I like Benny Goodman, Neil Diamond, Hank Williams Sr., Bach as well as a lot of heavy metal, electronic music. I was in a cranky frame yesterday. Kind of figured out I'm growing again, ergo, bones are drawing out / thinning down and causing lots of so blissful pain. We all have our rough / bad days. I offer you a gentle hug. I would say more but less at times does.
One of the Juan guys must have been pranking, swapped out box labels again. I need to let that Juan guy go and get another Juan. I ought to hire three more Juans to track down this Nobody fellow. It seems Nobody is the only one that does anything. He would be a good worker getting everything done.
Same box, different cardboard filler.
I want to get another squonk mod or even kit maybe. I always thought I'd order a Recurve next. But now I dont know.
What I have-
How do you guys go about choosing a new device? Should I just get a Recurve already since it's so cheap (price)?
Also, for some reason I think I "need" an Elder Dragon. Looking at the AF, it looks somewhat restricted. I kind of like airy I think.

- Feedlink X 2

@VAPEROXX got an Elder Dragon. Maybe he can elaborate. He told me he liked it surprisingly well. I've been really wanting one, too.
I have a mech Pulse, just a cheap $15 thing and it took me forever to get used to it, but dang if I don't really like it now. Once I got it looking not quite so plastic-y and cheap, then I could pay more attention to the way it vaped.
All my squonkers have just sorta come to me as things I found for a good price at different times. Starting from scratch, and everyone having different preferences, it's hard to know how to choose, unless you just buy another of something you've already tried.Do know that a lot of people have really enjoyed the Desire Cut, me included.
I have been just very slightly disappointed in my Recurve mod; after a month or so the bottle cover and the battery cover (held on with magnets) have loosened up, and they wobble just a bit when I hold the device. It bothers me, feels like it just isn't well made.
I'm also very fond of my Wismec Luxotic BF (semi-regulated), but not the Tobhino RDA that comes with it. This is a small devlce, single 18650, so there is that.

Until about a year and a half ago, we all just bought anything new squonkwise if it was under $200 and just got the sexiest over $200
There were so few choices and scarcity was the rule back then -

I have a Pulse x and do not have anything bad to say about it....also have a Topside Dual ,aside from being heavy it is perfect. Because it's heavy I have a Topside single on order.....Did I mention the Profile...YES...
.
Get Well....
Get better soon!
If you got anything like the sombavabeach that got me down a month ago I feel sorry for you and feel your pain. The only thing I could vape somewhat was a menthol DIY. Flonase helped, so did Pedialite (the powder stuff in one quart of water or club soda) you need the electrolytes and stay hydrated. In other words, hope you feel better soon.
I had a basium
Slippery paint. But pretty good. Instant firing, with no annoying sleep function. Simple menu, I didn't upgrade the firmware. Smaller than they look in pics.
*sets down his Coppervape momentarily* Is it durable? Is it simple? Is it affordable? The more of these a product can positively answer the better. *picks his Coppervape back up*
Take your rest, get better.
Ah, ... the good old days, two squonk mods making the choice easy. Now, it's like the cereal aisle scene from Hurt Locker.
I don't have any of those mods,so can't say anything there,but i 100% agree on the Profile,i like it so much,i have 10 of them haha.I have a Pulse x and do not have anything bad to say about it....also have a Topside Dual ,aside from being heavy it is perfect. Because it's heavy I have a Topside single on order.....Did I mention the Profile...YES...
Again I am a rank amateur...only two and counting....
We all started there, don't feel too bad.Again I am a rank amateur...only two and counting....
I don't feel bad other than my mod stand still has one open space...
and I can justify every piece my wife knows about...
2 is a good number.I got carried away and wanted 1 for every mod i keep in rotation,and then a few spares to keep back just in case.I could of just as easily moved them from one mod to another when i switch around,but as i've gotten older,i've also gotten lazy haha.Again I am a rank amateur...only two and counting....
I have 2, 1 for each squonker, and 2 rebirths, and a dead bunny, a pulse and 2 mazes....although I have a single Topside on order..
and a profile unity....I think i'm gonna need another Profile RDA....
Again I am a rank amateur...only two and counting....
I've owned an assortment of squonk mods... I only own two now myself. And they are both Pico Squeeze'
What I really need to do is stop buying knives lol
I hear ya haha.I stopped buying mods for a while so i could buy some long wanted upgrade parts for my car in my avatar.I'd much rather go back to buying mods,their cheaper,i don't have to lay on the ground to install things on them,and i can use them right away instead of looking at them for 2-3 weeks saying i'll get to that tomorrow haha.
What I really need to do is stop buying knives lol
I ended up ordering another squeeze 2. I looked at the topside long and hard but passed. Ultimately I'm a cheapskate. I'm not paying double for top fill, at least at this time lol. I have a squeeze2 already and there's a few things I don't like about it but it gets the job done. I have no complaints about refilling my bottle or the time it takes to do it.
I also checked out the Pulses but its kind of the same situation. Again, I'm in bargain mode right now.

You are not a cheapskate, just reasonably frugal...The Topside Dual is my most expensive vape purchase to date. The Squeeze 2 is interesting if I can find the Mod only, on sale that is...
just ordered a Squeeze 2 from Breezy $27 w/code CVD10....
I don't believe there is any way to update the Basium software
Really need to look for another DS...or maybe a TS.

lol, how ironic, I come in here looking for advice on a new rda just after a post honoring the biggest enabler and one of the best friends I’ve made here at vu..
Bottoms up Spanky
I’ve come to really love the single coil vape off the citadel, elder dragon and drop solo.
But, I’m looking for something with similar performance that will look a little better on the drone.
Any advice or recommendations? So far I’m thinking the Reload S per the b2k...
help me spend money if you can.
