That's sweet. I plan on keeping the skull and shield I got from bx10r unused besides what he used it incase I have to barter with you. Lol. You find anymore Deathwish and you let me know.

So is the guy that gave it to me :)

Well

It’s extra snazzy then

I really enjoyed that mech... build quality, looks, lined interior, hand feel, ease of button, price single, price stacked...

Hard to find a better mech for the price point stacked ($66)

I bet it would scream with an Asgard Mini series deck.

It nearly ticked every box for me.

It does, especially with the series deck. Not as snazzy as yours @debinnv but effective.

Effective truly is ALL that matters. @~Don~ was awesome enough to gift me one (along with some other goodies ) knowing that with the issues I have with my hands, I could use this one easily. ( and I can! ) I love this mod

Thanks, they are out, as is everywhere else I looked. I signed up to be notified if they get them back in stock

Dang didn’t know they sold out... although as popular the Asgard is... and those liking series, it was inevitable.

I ordered mine within the hour they posted about it on FB

Even before I had a series mod to use it with.

Now it just sits, due to a really crappy button...

Might have to buy a Octopus Squonk clone from China just for the button since it’s cheaper than printing one, having one made or buying direct from the mfg.

Perfect button though for the Saga

And to think, China had them for $1.79 at one time

Now I have to spend $22 on a whole mod for a dumb button lol

That was in our chat when I said $39 for a button

Only guaranteed shipping they have...

So $39 guaranteed or $23 and crap shoot


Edit: and 3F used to have them for $1.79 DOH!

Mechlyfe Arcless 21700 with the stack section.
Yes. What marter said. That is a worthy, well designed and machined mech tube that performs WELL out of it's price point. Nice smooth CCS/SA switch with a couple button options included

I got mine at Vape Crypto for 65 dollars with the stacked section. One of the best bang for buck new purchases I've ever made.

@debinnv have you looked at the Axial Pro RDA? Ships with both a parallel and series deck from Twisted Messes. Haven't tried one but might be worth looking at. About the same cost unless you have the Asgard already.
I have looked at it but I'm having a real hard time with that $75 price tag lol
Thanks though. I will wait a bit and see if someone does not get the asgard series deck back in stock

I hear ya. If you have an Asgard, I'd wait and see. If you don't, it will be around the same cost (~$50 and $25).

I like the Axials, but the Asgards (both sizes) are probably my favorite dual coil decks, the Kali V2 being a close second.

Good luck on the search.

Decided to throw a build on the Asgaurd Mini Series deck.
I threw it on the MDX Bastard dual 21700 Stack Piece.
I like the deck a lot, for a series mod it's fantastic.
I put two 0.32 Ni80 Claptons on it and they came out to 0.57 ohms just right for me on a series mod.

Taking a cue from @gadget!

My frankenstein Unicorn MDX 3:1 stack consisting of the brass tube and the knurled copper stack piece. I got both of those for 35 bucks I think from ArkansasEliquids. Great mod despite the not exactly matchy parts :D (528 Customs One Tip)

The Asgard Mini with the series deck. A pair of Ni80 fused claptons that come in at about .16 for the pair/a bit over .6 on the series deck. Fantastic!

.6 would be a yawn for me on a standard deck. I'm usually at around .3 or a little above on a series stack with a parallel deck. The way the build resistance effects power is very different with a series deck.

Depending on how things go, I'm going to have to pick up a 30mm copper Asgard with it's series deck to put on the fat top for my copper XXX. Now I just know that that will not fail to bring a response from @Carambrda :D I know he's a big fan.

I do hereby stand most humbly corrected. I bought it when I got the C2MNT now that I remember right.

You must have at least one Fat Top for the XXX?

Say yes or I'll have nightmares :D

No matter what I try, the camera on my phone sees the screen graphics as orange. Imagine them the same color as the mod.

The Zeus X on the Morph. A great mod btw with a snappy and accurate touchscreen that is a joy to use.
