Another year passes over, and it seems it's my trusty ePetai's turn to hit the dust. After a few weeks of wonkiness (self-adjusting temps, "auto"-locking) which comes and goes away, it has finally gone full retard now and my brain aches trying to deal with the wonkiness.
That's okay, I have the Nano as backup, right? Well, unfortunately the Nano's back in work base... and it has become quite wonky as well. Which isn't entirely surprising as Nanos are known to suffer from oxidisation-related contact issues, besides the butter-soft battery cover threads and the crap screws securing the DNA board.
With all that in mind (and the fact that "recovering" the Nano was gonna need some work which I'm not really in the mood for), of course the only thing left to do was to get another mod. Thus:

The S-Body Macro DNA75... aka the one I skipped over to get the ePetai back then. And damn, is this thing TINY, even compared to the ePetai.
And thankfully I got a good one, considering that the battery door isn't TOO loose and the buttons are only the littlest bit rattly. Hopefully this one lasts at least a year without going the way of the dodo lol.
And no, I've already had a whole lifetime of squonking during my Vapage V2 days, so yeah I'm skipping the whole squonking "revival" thing lol. Just too much hassle for a tad more flavor for me.
