What is the difference between the DNA166 & the DNA133 apart from the obvious 33 watts?

Quoted from vb:

The 200/133 boards have 1 A on the USB side or 5 W (1 A x 5 V).
The 75 boards have 1 A on the battery side, about 0.8 A on the USB side and around 4 W.
The 250/166 boards have 2 A on the USB side or 10 W (2 A x 5 V).

You always get a little less because of voltage drop in the USB cable and connectors, but 250/166 are a lot easier to live with, you can get a good few hours worth of charge in in 20 mins.

So they charge up quicker, is that right?

Right.  Right. Okay. Right. Yeah. Okay..right..yeah...that is it..my bank account can't take anymore payments lol

So far I have bought about 10 tanks, 4 mods, enough nic base to last me years and some premade juices just to try out.  I also have bits and bobs on the way from fasttech to go with all this new gear.

I can't say how much I have spent and I have bought so much stuff I honestly can't remember what I'm still waiting on to be delivered    

I have decided to cut myself off NOW!.  I think all I need now is some concentrates but I'm holding off spending anymore until probably mid next week when I expect (hope) prices will plummet to rediculously cheap levels and then I may splurge a bit.

I think I'm covered now post TPD.  Never spent so much on vape gear in such a short amount of time but prices have just been too amazing to pass up.

I'm waiting until next week now and hoping that when the prices drop so do all your internet connections so I can get in there first before everything is OOS lol

I've been quite conservative really - I've picked up a couple of Griffin 25 Plus tanks at silly prices (sub-£20), a Geekvape Ammit which I'm still waiting for, and a Pico because they were too good to pass up on. I have about 3 years worth of Nic Base, and trust that this will be enough. Oneshots, spare coils for SWMBO's Subtank, and eveything else should still be available, so I'm not too worried.
I am still checking the UK vendors for good non-compliant gear though . . .

If anyone comes across a genuine Kayfun 5 please post it here or let me know... I have the SXX and SMY clones but would like an original

I am a little puzzled by the references to looking out for mods on here. If vendors are using the TPD to put mods in sales it is a bit odd as mods are not affected by the TPD at all unless I am missing something.

Don't be puzzled. You are totally correct.

The vendors are using the TPD as an excuse to have sales on many things. They just find it easier to 'pretend' they are doing this because of the TPD as it fits the general mood to panic buy.

Mods that come in kits with non-TPD tanks are of course needed to be sold.

It's been the same with coils recently too. They are selling off coils for non-TPD tanks at sale price. I guess they don't intend to keep stocking them for very long and be part of a general plan to 'gently persuade' existing vapers to buy new tanks.

Trying to make 100% sense of it is not easy. Some of it is BS strategy. Some of it is genuine.

if the mod includes a tank and the box dont have the right sticker on it they gota flog it befor tpdfg thingy comes in
it dont matter if the tank is tpd compliant if it hasnt got said sticker on it and im not sure if its the same for mods

none of it makes much sence but it seems to be like the warnings on fag packets ie if it dont have it dont get sold

[Pepperty]

I don't appear to be 'holding out' I keep buying everything ???

yep it will affect anything with a tank but not stand alone mods/batteries. Nothing in the tpd about them.

[thatguy]

Well as far as tanks go, all I'm looking for is more replacement glasses for krakens, still the best tank ever made, but as long as I can buy glass tube the correct diameter it's all good. I did put in an order for 1 litre of 7.2% nic but that will do the Mrs and I for 2000 30ml eliquid bottles, probably more as we'll drop nic levels even more in the future.
