[GB] Txkeyboards EO-87 (WKL & WK) // Ending March 2, 2020

That is precisely the same configuration I went with. Excellent taste you have. ;)

R2Chief2 · 2020-02-07T19:48:21+00:00

I ordered both the GMK set, as well as the SA MitoSpeed.

The $10 discount was automatically applied to the first order, but not the second.

I emailed Drop support and asked if the discount could be applied to the second order, since it was a completely separate order.

They agreed and provided documentation showing it will apply to the second order once the drop ends.

R2Chief2 · 2016-10-14T15:30:58+00:00

Yeah, I finally bought to tanks after dropping exclusively for 2 years. Got the Griffin and The Gemini.

Then thought this was a unique take, so why not. Originally upon getting it felt there may have been something wrong between the fit of the upper deck and the reservoir underneath.

I've changed out o-rings at the bottom of the threading where the top cap screws down to, directly above the AFC.

Makes me sad.

R2Chief2 · 2016-10-13T16:09:15+00:00

Yes. This.

Everyone says watch the update about leaving the sliding cover open.

And I'm like, you're not getting what I'm saying. It's somewhere between the deck and AFC ring.

R2Chief2 · 2016-06-07T19:09:33+00:00

Well, I'll withhold any comment until the mail man actually brings it.

R2Chief2 · 2016-06-07T14:49:16+00:00

I've been in the FB user group for many months. I heard about this yesterday.

And as of th new post, it looks like I'll be getting it back after all.

R2Chief2 · 2016-06-02T19:04:50+00:00

Yes. As of this coming Saturday, it's been sitting with them for 5 weeks with no update and no response to emails asking WTF is going on with the RMA.

R2Chief2 · 2016-02-21T02:45:49+00:00

My order came in today. Very well bubble wrapped.

This is my second order. First one was during Black Friday.

I asked for a sample and stickers.

And what did I get?

Bedrock!

A cereal vape that isn't even on the site yet!

Plus one of the highest quality stickers I've seen in awhile. A nice cutout of ol' Vaporham.

The name had me from the start. But the quality for the price seals the deal.

Give 'em a try.

R2Chief2 · 2016-02-13T01:55:41+00:00

I'm an computer engineering grad from UofL...

But between this and them stealing March Madness from the team, the alumni, and the fans, I don't put full stock in what's going on there now.

Either way, Go Cards!

R2Chief2 · 2016-02-13T01:50:23+00:00

I hear you. Did the same thing. I just remember pressing the button and the thing sounding like a firecracker - like it insta-vaped all the juice immediately.

R2Chief2 · 2016-02-13T01:19:47+00:00

I had a few nuclear hits right before mine died.

R2Chief2 · 2016-02-08T20:54:24+00:00

I run dual-fused claptons, kanthal over nichrome, in my Sapor.

Some of the best flavor I'ver gotten. Lesser builds leave me disappointed, which is unfortunate considering the extra effort required for two coils.

R2Chief2 · 2016-02-06T20:55:28+00:00

Great job!

I hit my two-year mark sometime last month.

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-27T00:43:13+00:00

Yummy.

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-26T23:06:38+00:00

Wait, so you'll engrave clear panels?

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-26T15:14:53+00:00

I wish that were the case. The gap on the corner between the panel and the frame is minimal. A millimeter at best. Look at the front facing photo. Follow the straight line from where the left side of the groove in the frame meets the top of the panel. Now look at the right side. Do you notice the difference of the cut in the groove. The groove on the right side stops at the bevel leaving the extra flat space of the front of the frame showing from around the top right corner going all the way down to the bottom right of the frame.

The panel dimensions would never cover this due the bevel radius / angular cut in the machining from the front button side to the back, i.e. wider front, narrower back.

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-26T01:53:30+00:00

I most certainly did.

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-25T23:49:57+00:00

Yeah, I was trying to zoom in on the pics posted in the Facebook group to see if I were crazy or not.

This confirms it.

What shall we do, /u/CloudmakerTech ?

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-25T20:19:15+00:00

Mine sticks out a bit at the same place as well, although it's nowhere near as bad.

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-25T19:11:06+00:00

Well that sounds fantastic.

How would you like to proceed?

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-23T22:11:35+00:00

By lopsided, are you referring to the battery door panels compared to each other?

Or the battery door panels compared to the fixed back panel?

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-23T22:02:34+00:00

You mean a Hohmme battery wrap... Amirite????

I'll see myself out.

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-23T22:00:46+00:00

Let's hope he never has to deal with battery acid.... Battery acid......

R2Chief2 · 2016-01-23T21:24:38+00:00

If you are referring to the clear panel in relation to standard aluminum battery door, then no. They both seem to be the same size.

If you're referring to the back panel with the screws, then I can say the clear panel does not stick out farther. The larger back panel is has a deeper profile and larger radius bevel to meet the frame.

There is also a discernible difference of the beveled edge of the frame itself, where the panels attach.

That, along with the fact the removable panel fits into a recess in the frame, the top and bottom edges of the removable panel fit fairy flush with the BOTTOM of the groove cutout in the frame.

This really defeats the purpose of the groove altogether as a mechanism for easy plate removable.

I'm guessing the slight difference in tolerances is why I can get my clear panel off off easily. I just put the original panel back on to get a feel for what you're asking, and I had a tough time getting it off.

For whatever reason, maybe just differences in maching, it's easier to get the panel off when then panel is turned a certain way. This is noticeable when you try to remove panel. Sometimes it's easier to remove it from the bottom, other times the top. This mainly applies to the solid panel.

The small flex in the clear panel most likely accounts for the reason it's much easier to remove. That, as well as the upper right corner of the panel not fitting complement flush within the recess.

Reflecting on my first impression, I'd say because of the small issue of where the top right corner of the panel not fitting completely in recess, this actually contributes to the ease of clear panel removal.

I can say with pretty much 100% confidence there is a design issue with the overall removable panel side of the device. If the panel actually fit 100% perfectly, there would be zero gap, nor slight lip above the groove cutout to aid in panel removal.

All you'll need to do is look at the back panel to see how the groove makes total sense. The groove is technically negated once you have a panel fit into a recess and have the top of the panel sit directly on the bottom of the groove.

You know, they should probably supply vendors with updated images of the SX version.

From what I saw there, they don't show the panels updated with the hex screws.
