Hi Tim,
Can I infer from this that my order for a DART and T1 glass mouthpiece and O-Rings will ship TODAY without the T1 glass mouthpiece (if it's not yet available)? The reason I ask (and that I emphasized the word today) is that I have a couple of vials of pure gold here, and I've been waiting about two weeks for the DART, and I really, really want to try the pure gold in the DART (rather than via a drop or two on top of some ABV in my T1; thanks again for that suggestion, btw).
The "All Glass Adapter/Mouthpiece" is ONLY for the T1, there are 3 different models (mouthpiece, 14G and 18G). These are the *NEW* products that there was a pre-order for. Because they are taking longer we are now going to ship out the rest of each order and ship the glass out in its own package (we are paying the shipping for these).
The "T1/Rev Glass Adapter" are our original glass adapters made from Delrin or PTFE, the REV glass adapter has a ~5" long hose attached to it as well. These are all in stock and should be shipping out with each order.
That wasn't really directed towards you, its just to eliminate any confusion.
To answer your question, YES! It will ship out today minus the All-Glass mouthpiece.
Does anyone have preferences on the smooth flow vs. pure flow tips?
Smooth-flow works best with the T1 or Evolution but also works for the Revolutions, the Pure-Flow works well on everything but does add a restriction to flow, also the when using the PF with the Rev you will need to clean the PF more often as the vapor will condensate on the ceramic with extended use.
Pure flow is a real filter, with low volume units like Revolution/DART it does a super job. Filters and adds moisture.
However it introduces restriction (in fact you can remove the Revolution/DART restricted mouthpiece and use a standard one as it's no longer needed there), making it's use on high volume devices like Evolution and T1 a pain if you don't need to filter. It makes the draw harder. For them, I think, Smooth Flow is the call. It doesn't impede the draw, but still adds the moisture. And that can be most welcome over time.

Looks like OF beat me to the punch! His explanation probably makes more sense too...
I've never tried them, or that charger, I was hoping someone with direct experience would speak up......
OK, the charger looks OK for this job, but 250 mA is a little weak for use with bigger batteries (you want to charge at the 1 or 2 hour rate typically). I like the WF-188 for that reason, two ranges, 300 or 650 (I just looked, sometimes I remember 300/600). The 3.0 Volts (sometimes listed 3.2) is the key as you know.
The batteries I'm less sure of, unless someone 'in the know' has run them I'd stick with the 'factory' RCR 123As they are top of the heap for flat out performance, no doubt the reason they're specified.
So you politely asked (twice) that's my best shot.....a qualified maybe.....
A lame response for sure, feel free to ignore my bill when it comes.

Have you ever used an 18650 Specific charger, like one that only fits one or two 18650 cells?
Cheers,
