    I finally got my Fishbone + RDA from China yesterday. I guess a month in transit for a sub-$20 RDA that performs as well as this one does ain't too bad. Right now I'm vaping Wastegate by Boosted (Raspberry Cheesecake and Vanilla Ice Cream) and it absolutely tastes more intense now than it ever has. The Fishbone + has a triple-helix airflow design that provides exceptionally smooth pulls for a direct-lunger, too.

    It's nice to be able to see inside my dripper.

    I built it with a single .16Ω 2.5mm Ni200 horizontal coil between it's Velocity-styled posts.

    Yeah, I just put a couple of cups of hot tap water in the crock and then turn it on high. The water gets hot but less than boiling. Just drop the atties in the water and let 'em sit for a while. When you take them out, the hot water just flows out the bottom as if they're really clean...er...which they are.

    More VapeMail today!
    Today's arrival from 101Vape:
    Six LG HE2 18650's (Battery blow-out deal - $7/pr... I should have bought a few more at those prices?) Six AA/AAA battery boxes ($0.99/each, so I can organize my loose batteries and my rechargeable AA/AAA's) 50 Kanger BDC 1.2 Ohm ($3.99/box, upgraded OCC) coils for my Aerotanks and KPT3-minis Three Kayfun Bell Caps ($1.99/each, because they were cheaper than replacement acrylic center rings) One DOD Stainless drip-tip ($3.49, just to try it out)... it's similar to the ones shipped with Orchids One black Sigelei Vr2 50W Mod ($19.99 on clearance, bought for the SO... she thought it was "pretty", lol) From 101Vape back-order:
    My Orange Cloupor Mini Plus finally arrived on Friday last week....  Now I have three (blue, black, and orange)!  
    My thoughts on the Sigelei... this thing is bulky, even compared to my IPV-minis, and the "box" design is just not nearly as comfortable as my Cloupor Minis (because it is HUGE compared to them).  I'm also not thrilled about the silicone cover either... it's thin, and white, which ruins the look of the MOD, IMO... why can't they send black?  The MOD itself, looks good, and works as it should, but not exactly my cup-o-tea, and not exactly sure the SO will really like it due to size?  If nothing else, it's a good spare, $20 50W mod, and should be another reliable addition to the collection

    Today, I received 4 packs of Horizontal SubTank coils from Sweet-Vapes (I think they taste better, and they're so easy to re-wick to make them last longer), as well as two ST RBA's (one original, one plus), and something interesting...  They had Pyrex ST Bell Caps (with frosted drip-tip) for $5 on sale, and ST air-flow bases for $7, so now I have an all-Pyrex SubTank for 1/3 the price of a "real" SubTank Mini I think it looks kinda sweet on my Cloupor Mini! 
    I'll probably only use this at the house, for fear of dropping/breaking it, but it looks really good...  Next time I order from S-V, I may pick up a couple more caps and bases... the Bell Cap only has option for SS connection, but I think it would still look good with a black base?

    My Eleaf iStick 60W TC came in yesterday and I've really enjoyed using it so far. I set it up with an IGO-L RDA with a 3mm 28g .16Ω vertical Ni200 coil and just enough cotton wicking to touch the bottom of the juice well.


    It's the perfect setup for testing new DIY mixes because with such a small amount of wicking, you can drip about 5 drops through the top and get 5 or 6 good pulls, and TC keeps you from getting a dry hit at the end...very little overlapping of flavors that way.

    I finally got my DIY supplies!

    I hope with @Compenstine's help in his DIY Classes  I can make some vapable juice!  Even if I can't at least members get 10% off their juice.

    Sorry for the terrible pictures.
    I hope this lasts a while.  I hate to say I have DIY supply order on the way, and a cart full of tanks that should tide me over, no matter what happens.
    (1) Reuleaux RX200
    (2) Joyetech VTC mini
    (2) Wismec Persa 75W TC
    (1) NEBOX
    (1) TFV4 Mini
    (1) Crown Tank
    (2) Crown RBA
    (5) Crown .25 ohm SS coils
    (3) Black Glass for the Crown
    I am currently vaping the Crown on the Reuleaux.  I am having a hard time adjusting to the much larger size, and cooler, but bigger vape. The NEBOX really has me spoiled with it's smaller size, it just isn't the best TC mod out there.

    Just ordered a 5-pack of Vaporesso Ceramic cCELL Replacement Coils from Heaven Gifts, but these were preorders. Saw on a PBusardo video of the Vaporesso about these coils and he said they're usable in the Triton so I'm curious and want to give a ceramic coil a try.
