Does anyone know if you can swap a DNA60 into the SXK 70w version? The body and everything is 1:1 right? So it should just be a matter of soldering a new board in?

I think I've seen that done but from a cost standpoint you're better off getting the SXK DNA 60 to begin with. You'll spend about the same in the end.

Now, that said: I think a lot of our mods can be switched to PWM for next to nothing.. (that's today's chore, as soon as I get back from the oil-change).

They're out of stock everywhere besides gold color or I would. Sure some other colors can be had on non FT/3F websites but they're overpriced in comparison. I was thinking of getting the 70w version for a backup then solder a DNA 60 if the 70w took a dump should I ever have to use it.

At least they didn't sell you one to email and tell you it wasn't the right color and would you accept <other>.

Bait&Switch is not cute in a B&M and it's worse online.

I picked up a Northbridge adapter to try in my BB. I hadn't used a factory coil in a long time but figured for convenience sake it might be nice to just drop a coil in once in a while instead of rebuilding. The first coil fired once, glowed red in the boro and then wouldn't fire again, giving me a temperature protection reading on the screen. Second coil, same thing.....I started thinking I killed my board. Went back to the insider and it worked fine. I just tried a third coil in the bridge and it's vaping like a champ. I guess I got 2 bad coils in my pack of 5, this reminds me why I went into building my own shit back when I was still a relatively new vaper.

When I've read about stuff like that on here it's always been Chinese sites.

It's happened to me in meatspace, but that was years ago.. I've learned to walk-the-hell-away.. Usually after laughing in their face. Thus, it's a small waste of gas and time - since I never, ever drive out of my way for stuff.

Albert has a new set of TRVP inner plates arriving in gold and silver this month. You have to buy both though, you get one gold one silver of the plates and button. Keep an eye on his website if interested.

My panels from Fasttech shipped but my set from Mums has not. It's a little sad to be compared to fasttech lmao

For those of you with the North Bridge or a Nord. Don't bother with the 1.4 ohm ceramic coils if you're looking for MTL. For some reason they decided to use crazy huge airflow so there's no flavor.

Good to know, I'm on my first pack of Nord coils, but they're the .6's

Any of you interested in an Atmizoo Tripod RTA?


I signed up on the list for one, won (Think everyone who signed up this batch won) but I don't want one...signed up for a buddy, who also won.

I can be the intermediate for you. I am in no way obligated to buy, its not a RTA I am interested in... looks cool... just dont care for a few things about this RTA to ever pay the cost of obtaining one.

the 112+DHL+usps 2 day to you from me.

Again, not a sales post, just a, " I can get one, don't want one, can get one for you post" ;)

I definitely like the feel of them better. Ive decided I like flat panels more so than curved. But as soon as I get some different ones, these will be replaced. They make my box almost look teal lol

Those pics are with light shining right on them. Without that, you can hardly see through and they're much darker

he has everything including silver innards, gold innards for bantam, panels, clear boro that does not leak, bridges ... he is my man (my work is two blocks away from his store which costsb me a week pay a month)
Albert is the man, really cool guy.

I haven't seen a clear boro or any rebuildable bridges in stock for a while though.

Lol, if I worked that close to his store I'd be in trouble, it's hard enough going in occasionally. Most of what I buy from him is online and usually arrives next day since I don't live too far.

Picked up one yesterday. He has. And he has the Nord and Nautilink bridges. I got the Dee before he sold out.

I bought the North Bridge from him, just hadn't seen anything rebuildable for a while.

I keep hoping he'll do another run of TRVP'd BB like he did last year in different colours. I wasn't into BB's at the time, but man they were nice!
