There's also a 3 battery version that's nice as well but the placement of the 510 is closer to the edge. It won't fit anything bigger than a 26mm.

I got one of those today, the blue/purple kit. Sitting here vaping it now. It's way nicer than I expected for $30 for the kit. Might be a favorite once I get an RBA and see how it is.

alright, gadget may tan my hide. but i striped the paint all the way off and buffed it out. the artwork is not as detailed as an og, but boy, this bitch is HOT !
my goal is to make it look as og as reasonably possible. and og's didn't have paint just in the engraving, so ....
and many og's had that black area as red, and i would l;ike to do that. but for now, well, i don't have a red purge rda :(

these pics just don't do it justice.

Checked it a lot lately, but I am just on the Blank RDA. Flavor machine, can just drip right down the cap with no problems, AF wide open it perfect for me. Really need to set it up for BF and give it a go. On the Gab tonight, cuz who cares about battery life stuck at home o_O:D

I was looking at another full kit from purge. Not sure if I want to delve into it or not though. Seems like I'd be wasting money on something I'd never use. Lol

I bought this because it was a closeout sale. I love these devices and wanted to have an extra just in case.
They're really small and yet they can handle a 30mm tank with no overhang.
I felt the reason it was so cheap is that the only color they had was gold.
I love it, I think it's stunning!

Ha ha. So true. Believe it or not fire is one thing that definitely scares me. Never been burned seriously but have started a fire on accident as a kid and I don't mess with it now.
I have some pretty hideous burn scars on my legs and a few smaller ones on my arms and knuckles from a job I had years ago.

What you don't see in this video is the die hand. (I couldn't find one) That's the guy with heavy clothes, special boots, a mesh face mask and gloves who runs around sweeping the slag/scale off the die and the piece so it doesn't get pressed back in. A 4 man crew. A press operator, 2 drivers and a die hand. The die hand can also drive and the drivers take their turns at die hand. You get burned. It's part of the job.

That's pretty neat but dangerous
It's safe if you do everything right. If not, somebody can die in a second. A 15000 pound piece of high speed tool steel at 2300 degrees is not forgiving. The place I worked at has never had a serious injury. Maybe due to the one strike and you're out policy. There is thorough training and you're always paired with an experienced die hand for at least a month before they cut you loose.
