The eagle has landed.. and I'm on the moon
Okay, she actually landed Thursday, as expected. I've been burning the candle at both ends lately and just now have time to post my appreciation for this beauty. I had a really long day Thursday, literally and figuratively, and one of the things I've been excited about with Jr was immediately appreciated, that being the ability to liberate myself from batteries for my portable needs when desired. All too often when getting vape mail this time of year, it's added stress trying to coordinate with the post in order that devices with batteries don't bake in the oven that doubles as my mailbox. For once, I was able to not worry about it even with the heat we are experiencing.
Despite feeling just beat both mind and body, and the late hour, I had zero apprehension diving right in with a new vape.. and, man, it was just like seshing with a favored old friend instead of a new one. Zero learning curve, coming from the Brick. I had tempered my expectation slightly for Jr, mainly in light of just how much I love Sr but could not have been happier after the first few tasty draws, pretty sure I was grinning like an idiot. The maple definitely seems less aromatic than my cherry Brick, that's a positive or negative, depending on your preference. I love the extra signature of the cherry, personally.
Other than switching to my Vapman lighter's narrower flame and known butane instead of the Scorch torch normally employed for the Brick or the Eagle, I did not alter my technique at all and couldn't have been happier with the resulting vapor and perfectly even ABV. It feels great in the hand and I love the shape, rounded for the hand yet stands on all sides. The Brick brand looks outstanding.
I stared at it and couldn't readily think of anything I'd do or add other than maybe a mp incorporating a dedicated 14 male, a la
@Vapor_Eyes' post a few back- another stunning pic, Vapor_Eyes, think you found the only thing that could top the Ti Burly/recycler combo! I already use some glass with 14 male as mp and it's comfortable for me, the instant water adaption would be cool for adventures in the wild or jaunts to a friends.
Could be the VAS talking but I feel it really does fill a niche in my collection; I love my other butane vapes but Jr is special and will get me where I want to be in a fraction of the time as the others. Bonus, I can now order company to "hit da bricks". The ergonomics are slightly trickier than it's bigger bro but not bad at all.
So, needless to say, add my voice to the chorus of praise directed toward Sticky Brick Labs and the beta testers- you guys crushed it with this one both in form factor and functionality! Thank you from a very happy customer
