Heard back from 2A. They are going to give me a $10 store credit, and told me to keep the Sichro rda. Not really thrilled with that, but better than nothing I reckon. The Sichro is not an RDA I will use, so that part is unfortunate. The post design just won't play well with the quad core coils that I use, it is clearly designed for smaller coils or round wire. At least I can salvage the drip tip and beauty ring from it. I am just gonna hold off on ordering the Flave from them again. I've recently gotten plenty of new toys that I am enjoying to keep me occupied anyway, plus I am trying to refill my emergency vape related "gotta have it" jar, as I have burned through that pretty fast recently.
Tell me about it, I have been on the search for one forever

FWIW, my 2F order for those Flaves appears to have hit customs....this should be fun...
Saw from 17track that they used Yun for shipping which is cool as they have pretty good tracking of their own...even shows the inward USPS tracking number. That is working on USPS site, but is in a 'not yet received' status.
Now to pray it ain't kicked back by customs...theirs or ours.

Otherwise, the little heat gun I'd bought from AMZ on recommendation from Gadget is out for delivery!
I don't trust UPS to find my Apt anymore, so having it sent to an AMZ Locker at a store that is open 24hrs a day about two blocks away where it'll be safe. Bonus: I get a $5 credit at Rite Aid for using it there.
I won't get the actual locker number and codes and shit until it's delivered though.

China Post has good tracking, too, with on-page links to the individual shippers' sites involved in the transport of a particular package.
A year ago I decided to collect blue and red mods. My first real dependable dual 18650 mod was a Blue and red Alien.. I buy blue mods with black or silver accents and convert them into blue mods with red accents. It's pretty much only Smok mods but I have a few others.
I bought the regular blue T-Priv a while back and fixed so it was red and blue. I stole the red parts off a red and gold t-priv.
I saw Element Vape had Prism Blue and Auto Blue T-Privs but they were around $50 for a mod and $60 for a kit. I ain't spending that much so I thought I was done collecting T-Privs. Nobody else seemed to have them colors for cheap. Usually all the colors are sold out.
Wet Vapes only had two colors left for T-Privs (I'd checked on them often). I looked a few days ago and all of a sudden they have a bunch of colors! I like these mods and I've used one for a long time. Supposedly on the side is the face of a Transformer but I didn't know that for a long time. I ended up getting my missing blue T-Privs and a couple more to steal red parts off of.
I got an Auto Blue one years ago.. It's been through the ringer. Here's some before and after:
I'll end up with two all black byproduct T-Privs ? .

Optimus Prime!!!
Honestly I had NO idea that is what that design was supposed to be. Very cool
Yes me either lol. I tried to figure out why it was shaped like that when they were new. I didn't get any answers so I just got used to it. Someone posted about looking for one last year and mentioned about the Optimus Prime. After reading that, it's kind of obvious there's a robot face there.Optimus Prime!!!
They made so many of them in all kinds of different colors. I can't believe I have all three of the blue ones I wanted now. I've been known to collect weird things ?. I'm over flowing with Big Baby Beasts from all these kits I buy too.
You are correct, I messed up on that when I typed it out, It is 2Fdeal.

Absolutely love it! I haven't put it down since I got it.
Hard hitter, comfortable in the hand, light weight, and for the money is a bargain.
Very compact for a 21700 mod.

Same here, what are your thoughts? It's not a bad tank but I like the Kylin M from VV better. I don't know, I feel like Wotofo took a step backwards on this one. Their profile RDTA to me, much better. Obviously it's a different type of tank, but still. Oh ya, and the bubble "glass"? it's plastic. Huge con for me.
I will hang onto it for awhile and maybe do the wicking a few different ways but not a lot of flavor here. Of course the Kylin M was the same way until you told me how to wick it. I consider myself still a bit of a noob when it comes to mesh tanks.
Also hate the low profile tip. I changed it out first thing. But that's just me. I know a lot of people like that style

Oh, he was talking to me ( I think? ) but maybe you said it wrong too??? lol
I haven't used it yet but I dislike slider tops of this style. The airflow ring on mine is pretty loose too. I'm not going to use that little drip tip on there either.Same here, what are your thoughts? It's not a bad tank but I like the Kylin M from VV better.

Even the strait glass for this is pctg or whatever it's called. More companies are going to that style to reduce breaking I think? Ill try it out tommorow.
Ya, I was adopted into the current fam at around 15-ish, but my birth mom's side was Royal Stewart. Dad was Irish...go figure, eh?
But, the first real tie I ever had Dad gave me and it was wool and that tartan. =)

aahhh okay and yes mine is Stewart too. I haven't pulled out my Tartan in quite some time. I should probably have it displayed somewhere.
Scots are from my Father's side of the family. Mother's side are all from and most still live there, Amsterdam. Now there's a combo ey? Scot and Dutch lol
I did say it wrong as well...
Love those honeycombs. I have a set of sxk ultem, mine are too dark fir my liking. Hope you like them. And yes yes yes on the intergrated tips ?? Love those.Got some skillet box parts today.

Wondered about those colours myself..
My Fathers side, his Grandparents (my great Grandparents), came here in Australia in the Goldrush days looking for gold from Scotland. At the same time my Mothers, her Grandparents and again my Great Grandparent, came here and set up a fruit Orchard from the Isle of Wight.
Both sides were early Aussie settlers....no not convicts.. ?
Not sure of our Clans colours, I should have payed more attention when my Dad told me his history.
That is great to hear! I really liked them, and was hoping you would too. I tend to only carry one battery in mine, and a small bottle of juice to refill my squonk bottle in the other compartment.
I always carry a mtl set up, so how much it is used really alters how many 21700's I use. But if it is not much, I get into a 3rd 21700,

Oh lookie, it's a Wotofo Profile M !!
Many things, much excite.
Gonna need a nice bath, but otherwise it's a beauty.
Many thanks to Wotofo and VU for the opportunity to try one, and their diligence in getting it here.

Just got it in today and had to build it you know how it works its a very nice mtl vape . Im using the 1.2 on both side you can make it tighter but for me this is fantastic. I never recommend anything but I do this tank and the flavor is amazing not 1 dry hit . I've been trying for the last hr lol this tank is for sure on par with my kayfuns ..give a great throat bump .. very very easy to build on .. opinions vary but for me I need to order a couple more before they disappear and I should mention using 60 pg 40 vg mix no leaking flooding so far ill keep you updated if I have any issues its silent and a smooth draw
I'm using it now and it's not too bad. It's always been my opinion that the provided cotton for mesh rebuildables is way too much. I took a photo of how much I ripped off which was probably 1/3 of the piece.
Too much cotton under the mesh or in the wicking slots kills flavor.
After sliding the piece through, I cut it off right at the edge of the tanks base. Then, I fluff it all up.
I imagine theres a top half and bottom half of the fluffed up cotton. I start taking from the bottom half, just lightly pushing it until it falls in the wicking channels. All's I want is enough for it not to leak. It should be able to move around a little in the slots.
Once there's enough in the channels, I just cut the rest of the cotton off with my little scissor.
Looking at the pictures, there seems to be enough cotton for the job. I have no idea why they want you to use the whole piece that they have measured. It's always been too much, no matter what brand. I've found that using just enough makes the whole experience better. When I first tried the Profile I used the whole piece. It didn't squonk right and the flavor was really muted.
One last thing. If a mesh rebuildable starts getting hot or burnt, I make an adjustment to the cotton. I just poke around from the side with the objective of forcing a bit more cotton under the mesh. A few little pokes usually stops it from misbehaving.
Has anyone tried using normal SS mesh like we used in Genny devices to rebuild this?
I got lots of that left from the old days, be pretty simple to cut a piece and fold the ends. I could even 'tin' the folded ends with dead soft .999 silver if it'd help with the clamps.
I mostly have 400 and 500 mesh, but I'd think 300 would be better perhaps?
I made SS mesh RDA builds in the past and Gennies are the OG RDTA, so seems workable, eh?

Yeah, 300 is probably the most popular. Vandy Vape sells rolls of it. You can cut off a piece and throw it in there. It's just a bit too wide for this type of Profile deck. I've just trimmed it enough so it fits before. I prefer Kanthal mesh rolls myself.Has anyone tried using normal SS mesh like we used in Genny devices to rebuild this?

It seems like a lot of people like to use SS mesh in temp control. The reason they say is to avoid dry hits or hot spot type hits. I never get dry hits the way I do it but sometimes the cotton needs to get pushed under just a little bit more. Cotton needs to be touching the entirety of the mesh strip. If it's not, that one little place will get hot before the rest can.
That Soulkeeper looks "fabulous"!
I love the Kilo Kiberry Yogurt. It was one of the first juices I became very fond of.
If you happen to see it in your vendor travels I'd appreciate the tip.
@Just Frank Do you do a similar build for the Zeus X Mesh? I did a great job the first time and can't seem to repeat it. I feel there is too much cotton under the mesh to properly saturate the juice. This current build seems a bit dry and the flavor is lacking.
I only get dry hits when I run it empty, usually at night....
Yeah, I build all my mesh tanks the same. They work a lot better with less cotton in my opinion. When it's packed too tight under the mesh or in the wicking slots juice cant move around too well. When there's an overly thick wad under your coil, it just doesn't vape well. When the wicking ports are packed too tight, the cotton under the coil can't re saturate as efficiently.
Mess around with it next time. The Zeus X Mesh RTA can vape pretty awesome. I close the airflow down a bunch though.

That stuff works well in subohm tanks too. I just sampled the nexMESH Pro and one of the coils was clapton mesh. Really good flavor and not as dry. Warm saturated flavor that comes from clapton wire, but fires fast like mesh.
I tried one of those clapton strips in an older Vandy Vape Mesh RDA while I was waiting for my Mesh V2. I'll have to try it again in the newer one or in a Hadar. I don't think wicking has to be as critical with clapton mesh either.
