... is dating back to 2012 as it happens...

I've already apologised to jonski for implying that he might be shilling, and in retrospect I would withdraw the remark and replace it with an impersonal comment on GB.

My point remains, however, that I dislike GB's business practices, and hope people might consider, if not actively boycotting them, then at least denying them the oxygen of publicity.

From Boards' own Dav, before the volte-face caused by the lure of filthy lucre:

There is *NOTHING* more insidious and downright evil on a forum like this than shilling. It completely poisons the well of a resource like our Bargain Alerts forum if someone thinks that recommendations and "bargains" can't be trusted.
...

you completely burned any bridges with our communities by being a shill for Gearbest and by profiting from posting fake recommendations on this site on their behalf.

There are barely words to express how vile and despicable I think someone like you is, so don't ever come back.

Anyhoo, I'll just exit stage right, and not let the door hit me on the way out etc.

I posted that before reading on, so sorry for being a bit snappy.

Just people over on the other gearbest threads instantly accuse anyone of saying anything positive about them as being a shill.

And when it happened here it really annoyed me. Just because someone has a different opinion of a company doesn't mean they are linked. Like giving out about a company doesn't mean you are working for a rival.

GB sometimes have things up for order before other sites even know they are coming to market. Fasttech seem to be the preferred Chinese option around here. But they are always last of the bunch to get stock of anything new.

I couldn't comment on GBs other stuff they sell, but for vape gear. They are a decent option.

Also personally, I couldn't care less about shilling. Fair enough its against the rules, but I trust myself to realise if something is a bargain or not. The internet is full of people trying to sell me stuff.

Anyway, sorry again for snapping.

AngryDiMaria · 24-06-2016 9:48pm

Gearbest and fasttech sell authentic vaping equipment at fantastic prices, the only downside is the long delivery times. People need to lighten up.

The company was banned from even being mentioned on the bargain alerts and android phone section, after they were found to have been using members of boards to shill their products and service.
Perhaps this ruling didn't apply on the vaping forum.

.... and now boards has jumped into bed with Gearbest, and gave them a dedicated sub forum in Bargain Alerts for them to advertise and for communicate with customers!

Theres a lot of comtroversy over it considering they banned members for even mentioning the site.

Well the first of the 4 Pico's I ordered came today and I'm really impressed. Here it is in the middle with a Pico tank. To the left is an Istick 50watt and to the right is a Tesla nano for size comparisons.

Yeah it is one of the new colours, I also have 2 of the new brushed steel ones coming.

Thecageyone · 27-06-2016 7:15pm

Don't suppose you want another Pico for that Tesla?

IRISH OS1R1S · 27-06-2016 7:34pm

The pico is smaller, but damn those Tesla's are by far the best small mod I have ever had. They are built like tanks and probably weight the same too.

Yeah, looking for one, have my Pico up for sale, thinking the tesla would be better for the wider tanks like my Avocado and the Mage that I'm eyeing up. Love the look of it too. Pretty smart. Also I never go over 60w.

I would say the biggest tanks without overhang would be 24mm, maybe 25 if you are lucky. Still worth the purchase.

How does this compares with Tesla?

I would say build quality and battery life are far better on the Tesla, but for the price and simplicity the Pico is the next best thing. You can't really go wrong with either imo.

That's the finish. Said I would go for something different. only thing is that it's pretty glossy, so if you suffer from sweaty hands it could be slippy. The black version has a rubberised finish though.

How much, and where from? I swore I wouldn't look at more single 18650 mods, but that looks nice.

moleyv · 28-06-2016 12:22am

66 dollars on fast tech with the code MAP. SMY SDNA75. It comes with presets so makes the learning curve on the evolv software a bit easier. With the code it's not too much of a premium over other single 18650 devices for a dna chip.

I seem to have to put the temp up fairly high though compared to my other devices. Might just be the build I have in there though. A 0.3 build in a kayfun might not be the best idea but I'm out of thinner SS at the moment. I'll do another few builds in the coming days to see how it goes.

IRISH OS1R1S · 28-06-2016 3:17pm

I have been using the Pico tank for over a week now and I just have to give it another mention. This tank is amazing, tiny, great flavour and super silky smooth to vape. If you enjoy mouth to lung vaping similar to how you would smoke a ciggy then this tank delivers in spades. I find myself constantly vaping it just for how enjoyable the vape is from it and not because I need to satisfy my nicotine craving.

I highly recommend using some ego one clr coils with this gem, it won't disappoint. I would say it is the perfect mouth to lung tank and hands down my new favorite tank. The direct lung users may not like it as airflow is quite restrictive, but perfect for mtl. You also need a needle tip bottle to fill it as the fill holes are tiny. Just ordered 2 more.

Is that the Melo III mini tank that comes with the Pico bundle or something else OS1R1S?

The tank he has is called the Pico, bought separately. The one that comes with the Pico mod kit is the Melo III, different tank

IRISH OS1R1S · 28-06-2016 10:39pm

No mate it is a seperate tank. Pico it is called. It is very expensive at €130, but I got a really good clone from vapvip

You could buy multiple genuine high wattage mods for that! :eek:

It comes with an rba deck to build your own, but it also comes with and adapter to use Ego one CLR coils.

Some more matchy-matchy. Never really understood the appeal of temp control but now I am hooked!

Thecageyone · 30-06-2016 9:28am

I rarely use TC, but have been dipping in a bit more lately. Only use ss wire atm, so it's nice to be able to switch back and forth without fuss.

If I am not mistaken the clp2 is Ss when I went in to the settings the coil was set to nickle :eek: And it was giving off a very harsh vape but set it to ss and have it on 190c with soft ramp up and it is velvety smooth! Over the moon with this purchase

Moonshot, Minikin and Super Cereal.

You must really like them fruit circles! I couldn't stand that stuff, in fact, I think it was the bottle of that I got that made me decide it was time for DIY

I have about a years supply of fruit circles here but you know this Super Cereal is very good. Gonna try out the Unicorn cake later and see what it's like. BTW if you'd like to try some fruit circles just gimme a shout.:D

jno547 · 05-07-2016 8:20pm

Limitless on a Sig 150 tc with a Unicorn Milk clone. There's a 0.25 dual clapton in the tank,100w and it's dare I say it,better than the Avocado,flavour is immense and it's 80vg so it's a little cloudy here but a fantastic vape.

I have 14/15ml still left in the bottle I bought still, probably never use it, lol. I think Unicorn cake was their best one tbh, it's not bad. Especially for the money
