If you love Noctua so much you can always get this RGB frame?

Can get the Noctua REDUX fans that are grey and then add these on?
Other than that do you want a Black fan with only White LEDs? Or any fan with RGB? There are a lot of options.

was looking at the InWin Polaris ones they seemed quiet enough plus daisy chain one to the other keeping cables to a min , build on them looks great but the leds look a bit of a let down plainish compared to some other bright ones
also lets you plug them right into the motherboard no need for a controller
but from what i see they only come in 120's

Nothing, because all of my cash is tied up in bloody Eliquid. *fumes*. I made a £45 order, it hasn't arrived. I am running dangerously low now after waiting an entire week, so I have had to order some for £25 from some one I know who can get it to me fast. Plus it also means I am now stuck at my mother's, even though I want to go home really bad.

So how is the vape going dude? have you packed up the fags completely? do you feel better?
I made the stupid mistake of ordering from Midland Vape Shack and it took over a week for half of my order to come. Fuming, tbh. At least the strawberry jam donut stuff came though.
I'm also on a Tesla Invader III now (two 18650) with a half ohm coil doing it properly straight to lung. I've noticed the coils last about two weeks rather than five minutes when you use them like that.
Going to lower my nic next time I mix (probably tomorrow) to 8ml of 72mg per 50ml (so 68 total) from 10. And will hopefully, now that everything stressful is out of the way for now, drop it again soon.

Really really well mate The Dovpo Trigger is my outside vape as its stealthy compared to the Smok Mag and with the Smok coils they don't last 5 minutes. I am down to 2 fags a day which is a massive improvement on 12.5g tobacco a day. I also have a Vandyape Pyro rta as well as the digiflavour Drop rba. i'm building coils with Clapton wire which come out at 0.2.
I have just started ordering my juice from Darkstar they are basically a diy kit and cheap as chips you get the bottleshot with flavour concentrate and the base liquid 85/15 mix for £30. you just add your required nicotine to the flavour concentrate i'm on 3mg nic so 8 bottles of 18mg nic cost me £5 from there and top up with the base liquid to get 70/30 e-juice, the shake the bottle and wait 2 days for it to steep other flavours can take up to 5 weeks though. cheap as chips for half a litre
.I paid £4.80 for postage and it was here the next day by 12 UPS was the courier
Overall I feel better for it I can breathe easier and my senses have come back so yeah well happy I started e-cigs and seeing as Cancer research are supporting Vaping it's got to be better than smoking tobacco. Also I have more spare money hehehehe
that's if my daughter doesn't get her grubby mits on it lol.

Yeah there were a few (not fair) stories going around about vaping lately but you would need an iron lung to basically vape like that. What they were saying was when the coil is burning (dry or just knackered) that it releases bad chemicals. But trust me, when it does that you cough your lungs up. It is not possible to do it more than once and you would know about it.
I see that in the USA now (on my vape bottles) Philip Morris have gotten away with putting a cancer warning on them. Just as, apparently, they are releasing a new cigarette that apparently gives you half the cancer /rolls eyes. I knew there would be fights in the USA because Philip Morris are evil.
Other than that and diacetyl (which is now outlawed any way) it should be fine. As you say, a yard better than smoking. And yeah the money is really nice. You sacrifice an awful lot to smoke tbh.

You make it sound more addicitive than regular cigarettes... maybe even harder narcotics haha

Oh it's addictive of course. It's damage limitation for me. I will never be able to quit nicotine it is far too addictive for some one like me who naturally feels like crap all of the time. Not getting my vape liquid in time is like running out of cigarettes with none around. Not cool lol.
Thankfully I've got 100ml now with another 100ml arriving soon and plenty of nicotine
Oh and Tole.. Yeah, I had the odd cig here and there. Maybe like one every few days. However, once you get to about 3 months you will realise how vile and nasty it is. Last week I had a cigar to celebrate my cousin's little boy (whose middle name is my father's) and gosh, it was gross. I stopped half way through, chucked it away and ran back inside to scrub my mouth haha.

mate you are paying an awful lot for your juice though dude check out bottle shots from Flavour Boss, Darkstar and the Shekem Shekits from the juice cabin you can buy the base liquid from darkstar which is only £9 a litre make sure you get the max vg one mind. i'll be ordering some kanzi tomorrow which is strawberry and watermelon with a hint of kiwi and marshmallow enough to make 500ml which will cost £23 with a litre of base liquid then just add the nic I want

Well I hate to be doing this so quickly (even though guys go through phones like water) but I have to wave the white flag, Blackberry are done. Not only is my phone slow it has now started refusing to show websites (license bolacks) and I know it's because RIM simply are not updating it. It still works fine as a phone but I need to access websites from time to time to stop my mother over paying for stuff. So I had to get a new one, and I wanted a top end phone without spending £900. Closest I could get was this.
Mostly because of the Sharp made screen. I hear it can be a little buggy, but tbh so was my Oppo but I didn't really care. The spec is amazing too for the cost.

Android 7.0 MTK6750T 1.5GHz Octa Core 4D Curved Screen 4GB RAM+64GB ROM
2MP+16MP Dual Cameras 3190mAh Battery Dual SIM Fingerprint - Blue
Youtube reviews were very positive too. Basically a mid to top end spec phone for entry level pennies. I paid £149. Which for the spec I consider good value. At least I can get the functionality back any way.

Nice!
I just had to replace my perfectly fine but sadly broken because it cannot pick up reception HTC 10. I ended up going with the S9 on contract because it's one of the only phones with a bloody headphone jack.

Too many phones dropping it, its a shame.
I'm going to get the OnePlus 6 when I've got the cash, I'm genuinely relieved that still has one

I waited for the embargo to lift on the OnePlus 6 before buying the S9. The reviews were amazing, but the lack of contracts (I don't have €580 right now), no water proofing, and no stereo speakers coerced my hand to the more expensive (in the long run) S9. I would also have bought the Huawei P20 as it's very good value considering and has a superior battery life, but that doesn't have a headphone jack or stereo speakers either. I could live without the stereo speakers or just the headphone jack, but not both.

I've gone off of big brand phones again. I did want a decent spec though. In the end I chose it because of the screen and the build quality (front and back are glass, chassis is metal and it has a headphone jack). CPU is not the fastest (the Snapdragon is quicker) but the price was very keen indeed and I am sure it will absolutely slaughter my BB.
What makes me laugh is when they are reviewing it and picking all the faults they say "The fingerprint scanner is a bit slow" yet it takes about a second. Are people really that impatient these days lmao? Gaming, apparently, isn't the best either but the only game I ever really got into on a phone was The Simpsons. I am sure it has more than enough balls for any of the emulators I could wish to use.
My days of spending £500 on a phone (note that only ever happened once and I still have it in pristine condition (BB Passport) are over. I discovered that when I bought my Oppo and then waited for a similarly priced phone (£170) that could beat it. I waited, and waited, and waited. Nothing. Anything actually better than it (Quad core Snapdragon etc) with a higher res screen cost double that. And none of it was worth it, because it was 1080p, more than enough for the 5" screen.
So yeah, this is the successor to that really. The BB Porsche (again pristine) will go back into the *huge* box and retain all of the collector goodness. I've got quite a few Blackberries now. One of my mini collections lol.
I do laugh at reviewers when they review phones. "It's a bit slow compared to the S9+" erm, have you checked the prices? How can you expect a £149 phone to compare with a near on thousand pound phone?
