What you got today

My DD UF-2100 arrived today. 5 mode, looks like it's always starts in "next mode". Going to get a driver swap anyway.

Can't wait to see how the V6-T60 fares against it...

I hear ya Kelly. Same in the uk, but I was a little optimistic regarding the up and coming summer that year…

Where in Canada? I’ve always wanted to visit Vancouver

Got an UltraFire V6-T60 from DX, ordered on May 16th, 2 weeks again for delivery from DX! I am pleasantly surprised!

I got some non flashlight related goodies from Manafont an amazing delivery a delicate glass milk carton, how it made it here in one piece I will never know. I fully expected to find a box full of powdered glass, but alas it arrived completely intact.
The infamous baby peeing jet flame lighter. My girlfriend loves it and on more than one occasion someone has picked it up and lit their thumb on fire not expecting the flame to be excreted from his baby dick.
In an order made in frustration after a bad batch of atomizers from Priceangles destroyed three of my five e-cig batteries I ordered two from Manafont and two from Priceangles big surprise here the Priceangle ones got here one day before the Manafont ones and the Priceangle ones are twice the size and twice the capacity as the Manafont ones and they have the ego brand stamped on them unlike the tiny generics I got from Manafont.

That lighter is great, everyone should have one.

E1320, can you give links for the e-cigs please from priceangels? What do you fill them up with?

I have been using these for over 3 years after being a life long smoker. I have tried a couple different designs and prefer the Ego tank system.

You want to start by ordering one of these three kits any of these will work fine.

You are going to need some replacement parts.

Atomizers burn up after a couple months or a couple weeks so you will need some replacements.

I recommend you order ten you are going to need them. The last thing you want to do is commit to quitting smoking and have your e-cig out of commission.

You also need some cartridges this is were the e-liquid is stored before it’s converted to steam by the atomizer as you inhale it.

A couple extra batteries is a good idea I always try to keep four on hand because again you don’t want to run out of power when you need your nicotine fix.

An extra bottle to hold your e-liquid is good to have to aid in a quick refill of the cartridge.

Your starter kit will come with some e-liquid. I started with Camel cigarette flavor since that is what I smoked.I mix my own e-liquid now I use 35mg per ml of nicotine which is extremely strong, but I find it keeps the wear down on my equipment. I can’t vouch for any e-liquid suppliers except the one I use. I am sure you can find a local supplier if you search the e-cig forums.

Thanks for the detailed info E3120, I had absolutely no idea how these stuff work and what you need, it’s for a member of my family who’s been smoking for decades and can’t quit… :smiley:

I honestly had no intention of quitting when I first got into e-cigs. I just built a new house and was tired of going outside in the freezing cold to smoke. I found myself almost instantly addicted to the e-cig and have been smoke free for over 3 years now after smoking a pack a day for most of my adult life. I can tell you it isn’t for everybody, but it worked for me.

The lighter is a representation of the “Mannekin Pis,” found in Brussels, Belgium.

The original peeing statue is there, as is the museum devoted to his 700+ costumes. You can find just about anything in the shops there that could possibly have that figural attached…keychains, corkscrews, pouring bottle-tops, even full-size souvenirs of the statue to take home.

The original is only about 2-feet tall, and off of a tiny alley in the Grand Place…but the wee thing sells a ton of merchandise !

@E1320 - ha! And I was wondering what the rubber band was for… Brilliant shot! :bigsmile:

Received a xm-l 1a for $6.12 not great but good, and an xr-e P4 warm white $3.00from LED-DNA on ebay ordered on 5/27 received today 6/5 very fast shipping. Both on 16mm board to start my self modded lights and the warm white to see if I can get addicted. Want one of the nichia leds everyone is liking.

Hopefully that P4 warm white will be a cheap start in warm whites!

2 L2m’s

Sorry crap photo. I put 3 extensions on one body and can use 2 18650. I only bought these eight days ago from a Hong kong ebay seller.

Got a L2P in grey from Solarforce, together with non-crenellated bezel. Ordered 31 May, sent next day, arrived this morning. We’ve just had 2 days public holiday, so pretty amazing really.
Trouble is, the Intl Outdoor drop-in I ordered at the same time hasn’t shipped yet :frowning: Think I’ll give Hank a shout. Still, put my only other drop-in in, and had a play. Very nice.

EDIT - Just noticed - this is a special edition. It’s very special. In fact it’s “Specical Edition”. Woops.

I got yet another four pairs of XTAR 2600mAh 18700s.

Yes, the BLF deal is still on!

Yes, XTAR delivered these in seven (7) days!

And yes, all four pairs were exactly at 3.78V!

Got a P60 drop-in from Manafont that has a Samsung 3535 LED. The LED is pretty much the same as a Cree XP-G. Mini review here:

yesterday received an xr-e 16mm in the colors red and green, 2 - xml 12volt version, and a xr-e R2 drop-in, Ordered these from goodluckbuy.com on 5-26-12 and received on 6-7-12. Fast as all get out! Will try them again.

I got a shipment from the BLF FB XTAR giveaway! :smiley:
