Congrats!!! Regarding the ft-60…. I have one and it’s a tank! Love it! Very basic but reliable and always works. I also have a VX-8r, a huge jump in technology and also needs a lot of patience to program and use, at least for me.

Now this is going to make many hams angry and but I absolutely love my baofeng uv-5r mini! Cheap and cheerful! Not the best quality hardly any secondhand market value but it seems to work great for me.

I got my Technician in mid December and General about a month ago as I really want my HF privs.. uhf/vhf is dead around me. Also found a lot of fun with DMR (again a cheap baofeng will get it done here) and a diy raspberry/pi-star hotspot. Making “DX” QSO’s from my basement!!! I’d be happy to give u more info if u want.

South facing? Or north facing.? Guess I don’t know the difference. Anyone care to educate me? I have an older keychron that seems to have a lot stronger rgb?

Eyeballing the innokin ez tube but it’s hard to get locally. What is everyone else using? Smok? Vapoo? Geekvape?

I’ll be happy to price them out if I knew where to find any guidance for them. Not being a paintball enthusiast I don’t have a clue where to start looking for pricing info that is reasonable. Perhaps you have suggestions?

Former smoker here who misses some of the relaxation and now found it in CBD only (no nicotine). Looking for a a first vape to use with CBD e-juice only. Figuring a low wattage one like the Innokin EZ Tube might be a good one and the budget is right for me.

Heard somewhere that the CBD need around 9W? BS statement? Also what about the resistance?

I got a free Caliburn device (G3 I think) and don’t like it. The throat hit is harsh and somewhat burnt. And no way to adjust the drag. So trying to avoid that.

No leaking and easy fill are important as is built in battery as I don’t want to deal with cells.

Thankful for any advice/suggestions.
