Who Here Enjoys The Odd Cigar , But Feels As Popular As A Leper For Having One?


Recommended Posts

I would always bust out the cigar for the special occasions (weddings, engagements, etc etc) but since quitting smoking a year ago I haven't had one since. I got no problem with people busting them out and I have always seen them as a way to celebrate something big (you don't bust them out for your birthday every year). Although I do have to say not a big fan of all those vanilla and different flavoured ones, They are cheap and if its an occasion that deserves a cigar you shouldn't be going that cheap.

Yeah pretty much my feelings, I've got a wedding coming up and I'm doing a bit of research to find something that won't destroy the non-smokers, yet will appease those that do like smoking. The past week I've tried my fair share of cubans and had some funny looks from neighbours while doing garden work with a massive torpedo in my hand haha

If anyone is keen to get in touch with the guys I get them through just send me a quick PM, they're pricing is very resonably for top-end cigars (mostly $20-35 each compared to $40-75 elsewhere) and are still a word-of mouth type shop that have excellent service and even a club with events at their roof-top terrace BBQ!!!

Hey Dan, firstly yes it's definitely ok to bust out a stogie on the odd occasion. Heck, inhale a little if you wanna real be ballin' with it.

Secondly, I sent you monies and PM'd you about some LED's but haven't had a reply are you about at all big fella?

thanks mate.

Definately no messages from you?????

Inhaling a Bolivar Belicosos Finos needs some lung toughness! For general odour and awesomeness, Partagas Serie D No 4's or Cohiba Robustos, all are sub $30 sticks....closer to $20 in bulk.

Hmmm maybe wec ould all do a bulk buy, it would probably still work out a bargain with reg post to distribute them around if people could agree on boxes of 25's????

Make sure you check the prices against Cigar-Czar in the super secret aussie section down the bottom (you need to sign up and get your Monicled Monkey Keyring!!) you'll get access to flamin mongrelA (Cigar Underground Terra Australis) and great pricing through the password protected Aussie only section, the priclist is a sticky, everything they sell local is hand selected and are humidor aged cigars :D

I'd be in for a box

Yeah no probs, my suggestions would be the Partagas Serie D No 4's their aged ones they have outrank the Cohibas Robusto and are $150 cheaper per 25 $490 is If you want to go halves?

    • I might just check it out.. A Q among all those skylines.. lol
    • Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
    • The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.
    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
