My haul from vape wild. I ordered the four bottles on the bottom and they sent two more 30ml along with the mystery flavor and a cowboy cooler for my vape it forward bottle.

I'd trade you straight across.
My Pulse 2 RDA for your Profile. :)

Sent from a Galaxy far far away!
It's not that I hate it or even dislike it, it just isn't all I thought it would be ... for me.

I also ordered a ten pack of nexmesh for it and got far better results with my own wick than those massive wads that wotofo provides :D

So I'm not giving up on it. I seriously do like other attys I have better though, including the Pulse 2, Bonza 1.5 and even the Lotus RTA.

I'm sure it's a personal thing with me and please don't take what I'm saying as a dig at somebody who likes it more than I do. That's certainly not the point.

Nothing personal was taken in any way.

Noisy Cricket from EightVape and accessories from ElementVape, missing a battery case from Element though.

Beginning to comprehend the attraction of the Noisy Cricket.

Today received a Luxotic NC box in red resin from eliquid.com. Less than $25.

Been reading and watching reviewers explaining this series/parallel thing. Can't claim to actually understand it down to its bare bones, but have the general idea.

Put the dual-coil RDA from a Beehive squonk kit on it, turned it to series mode, at about 0.77 ohms and 2-2.5V the vapor is plenty, flavor is good, temp is warm enough for me. Nearly zero ramp-up time for coils. In series I get immediate firing of the 0.55 coil in that Smok Spirals tank that was having to have ramp-up time at 22W on a regulated mod. Vapor is a little warmer than I'm used to, but delicious. Flavor is out of this world.

Now I'm interested to see how performance holds up as batteries drain a bit. Also interested to see how quickly batteries drain (running two 18650s right now, don't have 20700s free).

Read somewhere a bit ago (in a device review) that for series mode, best build is around 0.2 ohms. I very much doubt I'll do that - not my style.

Mod is a little bit big for my hands but not too bad. Corners are rounded, so no edges digging in.

I've been really tempted to try out those cotn threads. I'm tired of wrestling with cotton bacon and throwing half of it away. I've found myself dipping into my stash of samurai pads lately.

My son was just complaining earlier today about having problems with cotton bacon. He has some thread cotton, but says it's too big for his coils. First world problems. :)

I told him to crimp down one edge of the cotton and then "shave" it to a point with scissors and roll it again. Seems to work for me.

I got a partial order from Fasttech.

These Smok Baby V2. Glasses are nice. They also work in the original Fireluke Mesh. I like these ones better than Freemax's bubble glasses.

I don't even remember ordering this/these. We were just talking about Vaporesso EUC Coils the other day. Someone brought up the Atlantis styled sleeve. I was like man, I wish I had one. I love coil adaptors.
1229181758-1.jpg

I've been getting a pack of the Wotofo Specialty Coils with my orders to try out. I forgot I ordered these too lol. What the heck. Fasttech takes so long to get here I don't expect it, and have no idea what's in the package.

There was supposed to be more I think. But they always seem to split up my orders when I don't pay attention. Sometimes it says "mails in 3 days" but mails 17 days later haha.

I tried one today and it worked really well, just snipped the end to length and it was great!

We do have legit 25 and 30 amp 18650's and 35 amp 21700's now. Not that I'm advocating being unsafe, but at least there's more headroom than ever.

I'm probably the last person who would need to worry about overtaxing a battery. If I get below 0.4 ohms I'm about to die from the heat. Still good info to understand though, for all of us.

Cotton bacon works fine once you get it setup, but one end is always thicker and if you to adjust the size, it tears unevenly and I bet I throw away 20% of a bag in little scraps. The pads are so much easier and efficient AND less expensive. To be honest, I don't even notice that much difference in vape quality. The Cotn threads do look great though.

I typically use Cotton Bacon or the Bacon Bits, I started using the pads that came with my Coil Master kit and they are pretty nice. I’ve found if I let the bacon sit juiced for like 10min the taste is great from the start...not that it’s really bad the first few hits anyways. The only real advantage I feel the threads have is you just pull one out of the bag and it’s ready to go, you’d still need to thin and trim the ends for an rta so it’s not really saving a lot of time.

.4 is where I typically build but with a single cell mech I find myself building around .2-.3 to get the temp I enjoy, the series mech I put a .7 in and it’s just great. I’m using VTC5A 18650’s so 25a gives plenty of room and the iJoy 20700’s are 30a, I probably don’t need that much room but it’s nice having them just in case.

Do any of the rest of you have this Luxotic NC box? I am loving this thing. Been steady at it all afternoon and evening. Awesome vape.

That's definitely worth trying. I still have a lot left. Like I say. It works great. It's just getting it into the coils how I want that's a pain.

I'm not a super high power guy, but I do get into the range that could be trouble if proper care is not taken.

I have a bunch of vtc5a's and they're great, but for mechs you really gotta try those Samsung 20s.

I dunno if I could handle a harder hit than the 5a lol, I put a set of imren’s in the Noisy Cricket and it’s noticeably softer. 30amp 18650’s would be handy to have though...and they’re in the cart.

They do pack a punch. (the 20s) Especially for the first third of a charge or so. Just like the 30T for 21700. I put one in my new Bonza tube and woo hoo HOOOO!!! Have a helmet on.

I just ordered a purple one for $12:99 and I admit that having it to try to figure out how to fix yours was at least part of the motivation, A little extra nudge shall we say.

Which is a nice way of saying it's all your fault :shades:
Honestly if you were to somehow get it fixed I was going to send it to you for your birthday. :santabanana:

No. Ultem is great. Sitting in customs sucks.......


Carpe Nidor

He should have marked it as an adult electronic device.

Disappointed in today’s mail call from EightVape. I ordered this the day after my Basium and the Basium still sits in their NV warehouse, not sure why this was sent and not the mod. I’ll add that I ordered the Basium a day before their shipping cutoff for the holiday break and even paid for Priority Shipping...guess I shoulda paid an extra $5 for their shipping guarantee lol!

at least you got something.

my order from them, tracking says today. but tracking history says :
December 30, 2018
In Transit to Next Facility
Your package is moving within the USPS network and is on track to be delivered by the expected delivery date. It is currently in transit to the next facility.

maybe that's is SOP, idk. I won't know until later, when the mail guy gets here = 5pm'ish.

oh. FastTech, 10 days ago. they have yet give it to the post man.
