Any Vapers?

[Dude]

I was just looking at the DNA 30, looks like a good price too

$37.84 HANAA MODZ Pack DNA 30 Style Mod - black

I just saw a deal on the Cloupor 100w mod for only $67- if anyone is interested in a powerhouse type mod?! You have to use the purchase link fund on the review page in order to get the discount for the Cloupor T6 100w mod seen at $67.92 Cloupor T6 100w Variable Wattage Free Shipping | Vaping Discounts

Soon I will be getting in the other Cloupor 30w mod I ordered at Fasttech for $52- something at Fasttech as well as what the vendor has it priced for being "indestructable" mod while not actually water proof just water resistant with a durable body. $51.98 E-LVT Variable Voltage /Wattage Mod / Power bank - grey

Fasttech had it in a few more colors there however since most only see the grey or the blue as the two choices.

Then FINALLY today the other 50watter I had ordered on 11/13 made it in. That's the Bluetooth capable Smok BEC Pro I mentioned before and it comes with two not just one eGo thread cover one having a large opening to allow the base of a typical 1.6ml clearomizer like an IClear 16 to sit down below the top of the cover.

What's unique about this one besides being able to remote control it with an IPhonie is the Mech mode as well as the wattage and voltage modes. In mech mode it still managed to throw off some watts like about 14w while it came in set for 35w.

If you look along the end cap itself you will see the slot shaped intake holes for when you have a large tank on that covers it up. The next shot shows the difference in end covers.

When first firing it up with the one of three Atlantis tanks still not used along with another flavor not tried at the higher watts a cloud burst be seen! When later moving the same tank over to the ZNA 50 I had to run it at 40w to get the same amount seen with 35w on the Smok APV there. So there are differences to take into consideration when going to pick out a new mod.

For me after the Smok Groove II quit suddenly one night when it hadn't actually seen that much use from January to June that urked me about buying any more mods with sealed batteries until deciding to take a chance with the iSticks since I could simply keep one of those on me while not getting the millage the others will. I don't need a belt holster like the MVP or VTR would or have a longer eGo battery falling out of a pocket.

One of those plus an Atlantis and you are good to go Doug!

Ironically that same vendor had a group buy offer a little cheaper recently. But that's a good catch for that price since most places are asking at least $10 more.

The resistance minimum on that is 0.3-0.5ohm at some places. And when I mean a good catch have a look at what some places will charge and understand I price shop around quite a bit until I run into some reasonable prices since some of these vendors are ??? Hana Modz DNA 30 - AVAILABLE NOW – Planet Of The Vapes

The good thing with that one is that you can easily pop out a battery that goes on you while you have to get into better tanks when going with the peppier mods! That's the flip side of the coin so to speak.

Anybody looking for the Eleaf iStick Bending Adapter at a reasonable price it might be a good idea to grab one of these before they're gone 1x Eleaf iStick Bending Adaptor

Just got 2 for $11.38 including delivery which in English money = £7.49

 

[Night Hawk]

Well that will beat Discount Vapers price of $4.99 for sure! Eleaf iStick Bending Adapter That was the lowest price seen so far for a US vendor. HeavenGifts I thought was in the UK.

I think you'll find the links for the Bending Adapter for other vendors have already been posted earlier on this thread while only a few seem to have the iStick. I bought two and then ran into the folding bracket what I call it and ordered a pair for the pair of iSticks here. Now they even an iStick 10w Mini mod that just came out about half the size of the first. https://originvape.com/product/eleaf-istick-mini/ Have to wonder while it should if the bracket would fit on one of those while I'm not planning to go for any of those.

 

[youravinalarrrf]

HeavenGifts I thought was in the UK.

No they're definitely in China according to the website but it's the best price I've seen anywhere if you don't mind waiting a little longer for delivery.

 

[Night Hawk]

I knew they weren't domestic. You'll run into any number of sites between Hong Kong and Singapore like Fasttech for example is located in Singapore. Smokstore.us is located in China! And everything leads back to "Alibaba.com" the major wholesale site in that part of the globe! This at or that at everything at Alibaba.com whenever you try to look something up!

Anyways for paying more at the first vendor I still can't complain since I cashed in big time on Black Friday deals that saved a fortune on a few items of interest! One vendor had a factory deal on the Nautilus I stumbled into when ordering from three separate vendors at Amazon.

One included a free glass replacement tank and two additional spare coils on the Aspire promo card which saved later after going back to that same vendor to order two more before the price went up from $28 to $45! One tank alone saved enough to cover the two folding brackets!

Actually while running enough searches for pricing on a large variety of hardwares over the last two weeks I kept running into that site in the Bing search results often enough. But I was more interested in finding the best pricing amongst US vendors.One out of three orders from Fasttech finally arrived after let's see ordered on 11/28 and arrived on 12/9 which means what? 11 days! Generally 12-14days is the average.

A video review of the Atlantis vs Subtank.

Got an Atlantis and feel annoyed at the 2ml capacity? Fear not! Order this for it in the new year and join the all new 8ML club

[Dude]

I see a new badge/tank in your future Paul

The Kraigen 8ml Atlantis Tank - Kidney Puncher

That will be making a lot of people happy campers very soon! That's also one reason why I ordered the Big Dripper over just any of the RDAs found cheap for a pet project due to that having a 5ml reservoir sitting on top that drips down into the well as you go along for the increase in capacity.

Likewise in one discussion I was making some comparisons to what other then the Eleaf iStick leather holder could be used for carrying that around in and examined the mid size not largest eGo carrying case for the two I have here as well as what small tank would hold the most eliqiud while out on the go compared to what will handle the 20w output! The first two photos are the two easy to follow here.

Well that's nice having a few spare empty cases laying around looking for occupants!

And then for those times when you may want a spare in case the first ends up needing to be recharged how about a nice snug fit. Now don't mind the two different tanks quite yet!

The next is in regards to two small tanks and which one will hold more then the other as well as which one will handle the 20w max on the iStick itself. The Smok Tumbler fits down nicely with the Bending Adapter accessory with that being the first folding bracket of it's kind so far with the new mod.

The Aspire Mini tank is another one only good for 2-2.5ml while the 2.5ml Smok Tumbler can actually hold upto 3.5ml when using a needle bottle or eliquid syringe while keeping it at an almost 90 degree angle not leaning it way over trying to fill from bottle.

The last shot here shows the full size 5ml Nautilus placed up against the Tumbler. The Nautilus is obviously a bit clumsy when trying to fold it down for carrying it around in a pocket. The Tumbler however is maxed out wattage wise with the 2ohm coil in use at about 10w-12w but a better recommend for the newer iStick Mini 10w mod soon to be out.

The actual best application for the Tumblers would be for other VV/VW type batteries and mods since the best wattage range runs about 7w-10w. I thought this would be a good time here to show these here as well since some will be looking for the Eleaf leather case which is out of stock where it is found at the best price. $4.99 seen at Eleaf iStick leather case

The place that just got them in wants about twice as much and why they still have them in stock for $9.95! Eleaf iStick Leather Case - New

The main thing is, it's 15 weeks today since I quit smoking. That's a pretty long time. Longer than 14 weeks but shorter than 16 weeks.

 

[Night Hawk]

Don't be too overconfident quite yet! While that's progress I once stopped Cold Turkey for 8months not weeks solid without even one! but eventually picked it up all over again! The reason you will find it much easier then quitting without vaping is the change of experience you have undergone bringing about a new much much cleaner habit and dumping the nasty old one!

The reason for picking it up again was a little different from just about anyone else however namely using menthol smoke to counter severe allergies. I vape menthol flavors as the norm now of course especially the first so many hours daily due to anything and everything. A spec of dust or mold, someone mows a lawn with dandelions in it, plus other elements like ragweed being stronger this fall for some reason. I get pounded for those first few hours! With the heftier mods and now butt kicking cloud making tanks that will now be another plus factor in dealing with them!

Gollyeee... The things you don't see on FB! The following describes the new models coming out from Innokin which includes the MVP 20watt version with the eGo threading on the main connector however. Clearomizers don't fare well over 4.4v anyways or about 6-7w. The new ...well...

"The iTaste VV4 has a 750mah battery and the VV4M has a 1000 mah battery. The VV4 has a maximum VDC output of 15Watts and an advanced ARM 32-bit microprocessor and an OLED screen which clearly displays clearomizer resistance, wattage, voltage and remaining power level. It also has high quality threading and a spring loaded connector as well as micro-usb 'Vape while you charge' technology.

The iTaste MVP20W has the same legendary durability with even more power with a maximum output of 20Watts. The MVP 20W is more compact with a flush 510 connection with stainless steel threading and a spring loaded positive pin. Available in 4 colors Black, White, Silver and Lime Green the MVP20W is a powerful upgrade to the tried, tested and trusted MVP."

Obviously Innokin had to upgrade the wattages a bit while that 750mah on the iTaste VV V4.0 is less then the 800mah on the v3! The M version is 1100mah which helps while these are geared to use mainly the Innokin clearomizers and tanks over other brands which have larger capacities will outlast the charge of the battery. The slightly higher wattage however will help offset a bit.

Well I wasn't trying to even be confident not alone overconfident.

I know that but I was simply cautioning not to be since things can still be turned upside down on you. There will come a time however when you will absolutely 100% know you could never go back! That point of no return however appears at different times for each person.

I came to that point back in early 2013 after 35+yrs. the time had come. But that was still months away for the absolute last pack! Once you get there however you'll ask yourself "Gee if it was this easy how come I couldn't do it before?"! Because by then the slightest thought of going back will be repulsive. And vaping will certainly speed things up in that direction!

Way to go Paul, congrats!

Looks like your number awareness is improving as well.

 

[Night Hawk]

It's definitely a great start at getting rid of a nasty habit that all too many have difficulty letting go!

The reason I may seem a little hard at times is from knowing first hand how easy it can be to fall back into the old routine! And that's one place no one wants you to revisit! Keep up the good work!

Yeah it's not often I like to show off my mathematical skills as I don't like others to feel inferior but seeing as it's Christmas I figured what the hell
