hmmm tempting !! ss316l right? its recommended to fire in tc mode? but i see some people fire in wattage is it ok?
*
yup.. SS316L... u can fire both on TC/ wattage.. but, as times goes by and u getting used to it, u wont be firing in wattage.. wattage firing only when u wanna get rid of gunks only... firing in TC too good to resist..

Actually, 316 has rather iffy TC properties TBH. There are other "better" SS grades for TC as can be seen below:
In short, the higher the TCR value the more reliable/accurate the material for TC. As can be seen, 304 and 430 is much "better" for, although 430 rusts... VERY quickly in fact when heated lol.

Buuuuut, MOST mods offer a quick preset for 316, and its readily available so it's pretty much the de-facto standard in SS. Doesn't make it "the best" though, unfortunately.

Besides, you're gonna get a DNA anyway, and material presets are easy to adjust through the software so why settle for "normal".

On the other hand, 304 and 430 SS can be a bit hard to get locally though, even if a roll is often all you need for a looooooooong while.

Personally I'm rocking just 316 (coz it's easy to find) and it's TCing okay so far, thanks to modern chips being what they are. But I can't help but wonder how much "better" it can be with 304 or 430.

I think its best to use 316L ss wire, the material is medical grade, mmg built for biological use. They use it in bone implants and stuff. 304 is for general commercial use, like on house gate  sweat.gif

Serpent RDTA single coil build deck looks interesting! (not sure how steady and firm the dual coil velocity build deck is though) I like the Serpent mini build deck, now using Alto but dislike the post design. Hmmmmm…..masa untuk tank baru?
*
yup.. using 316L for few months already.. no complaint.. thumbup.gif

Besides not having TC, khantal is probably the material with the LEAST amount of horrors behind it lol. Simple and safe. That said I'm hooked on TC and the "clean" taste of SS edi so can't go back lol.

agreed.. SS a bit tricky at times.. but.. bro, same like u. I am hooked on TC and I also found "cleaner" taste.. so, no way back.. just sold off all my khantal stuff recently..

No coupon codes at the present time, but no harm if u pop the item into yr shopping cart and try the MAP code. At times there's unadvertised/obscure discounts if u use MAP for certain items.

Suggest u bookmark the page where FT announces discounts etc https://www.fasttech.com/forums/promotions

--------------------------

Aside: Just got a mail from FT saying they'll be splitting my last order into 2 packages (I didn't request for that).
Those 2 SKUs are the Pico squeeze and 10 squonk bottles. The stuff I bought may be spread out between 2 distant warehouses. Anyone ever got their order split like this b4?
*
tried the MAP.. unfortunately yilek... doh.gif doh.gif

as for splitting order, I experienced before.. not sure on the reason.. but, if I am not mistaken, it was due to one products suddenly got no stock and fasttech decided to move with another one first...

having said that, both item arrived safely except one came earlier, the other one a bit late...

Tested MAP with Triade DNA250....25% off  biggrin.gif
Ah well...hopefully the stuff u want will be discounted soon...there should be an Easter sale, but that's a long way off.

Well let's see if FT will move along my 2nd package "within a few days" (their words). Such are the vagaries of buying from overseas. We pays our monies and we takes our chances.

oh,ya.. used to have discount during Easter... so, can wait for a while since Easter is about a month plus ahead...nothing urgent actually.. just hand itchy.. sweat.gif sweat.gif
no worry lar, bro. I remember I used to have twice where they split my order.. everything went well at the end.. with FT, it's hard to complain on their service except their product quality. haha...

As requested, here's my somewhat meandering thoughts on the Pico Dual.

I've already got 2 Picos on hand, and a Pico Squeeze on the way...so why did I get the Pico Dual? Because it made sense. 2 batteries = less battery swaps. But more than that, it allows me to leave my (heavyyy)powerbank at home thus saving some space n weight in my fanny pouch. Just gotta bring the micro USB cable and adapter along...much lighter. I already carry spare batts for whatever mod I'm using that day, so I won't have to ponder whether to charge phone or vape! biggrin.gif

Cons (nothing major):
1) Condensation buildup between the atty and the battery compartment bulge.

2) Slight overhang when using 25mm attys. It doesn't bother me at all. Some of you may know that given half a chance, I'd put a 40mm Dump Tank onto an Evic Mini just to troll vapers who have overhang OCD  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif

Pros
1) Triangular base makes for a very stable mod when set on the table. Some slimmer mods can fall over with the slightest accidental nudge, but not the Pico dual!

2) Shorter height than other dual batt mods makes it easier to bring along (in my fanny pouch).

3) Feels more comfy and secure to hold in my hand than the Pico.

I won't compare the vape performance with a DNA device because it wouldn't be fair. It does the job decently, nothing more, nothing less. Am keeping the firmware that came with it...not installing fappy bird or custom stuff. The Pico Dual is my daily carry-around mod now, and I'm happy with it  smile.gif

oh.. sounds good.. thanks a lot for the info above... thumbup.gif
just browse through shoppee.. looks like another good deal there...
last question, bro.. any clone pico dual in the market? sometimes, I find it hard to believe the pricing at shoppee as it's obviously cheaper than FT... haha

AFAIK, no clones of the Dual yet. FT prices have been on the rise. They've been bullied by certain manufacturers to follow MSRP (or be very close to it) because of complaints from other sellers...FT had discounted deeply in the past, hurting their biz. Fortunately some local sellers here know well of our love for cheap prices and are not hamstrung by threats from vape suppliers.

ok, sounds good then.. time for another shopping at shopee icon_idea.gif ... but, browse through, can't find the silicon case for pico dual... last time, I managed to get the silicon case at sg wang shop (the one u told me). any idea where to get the case for pico dual? icon_question.gif
