@fernand: I plan on trying to take apart the iTaste VV V3, but it's riveted (not screwed) together, so it's going to be destructive no matter what I do, and I suspect the cell is not something I can source and replace anyway. At least I can salvage the electronics, though for what eventual use I...
@fernand: I've been playing with a RoseV2, which I love for zero protruding screws, no need for NR-R-NR coils, and the ability to use or not use a ceramic cup. Been trying dual twisted 32G kanthal inside the small rXw ceramic wick; no exposed wire or metal in the chamber. Takes too long to heat...
@fernand: Be aware. From what I've seen the Defender is a knock off of the iStick (the original 20W version), and uses the same chip. This chip is calibrated in mean volts instead of rms volts, and runs MUCH hotter for a given voltage (or wattage) readout than we're used to, particularly on the...
@2clicker (or anyone), do you know of somewhere I can actually buy a CannaVault? Been trying to order one with zero success. The CannaToolz web site ordering doesn't work. If I specify a credit card, the processing merchant rejects the request and reports that CannaToolz is sending a bad...
I have no idea whatsoever if they're the best thing since sliced bread or they suck, but if you would like to check out the latest of what Shenzhen Buddy Technology Co., Ltd. is up to in the mini clearo world, just click on this link. (Scroll down, to see every size and shape of clearo...
The CannaVault looks like might be very good for my needs, thanks for the pointer. They use platinum cured silicone, which is what I want. I dropped the CannaVault people a note asking if I could specify all different colors if I buy a bunch of them, but I haven't heard back yet.
@Dramma Lamma...
Limited color options. It's about all I can do without referring to a cheat sheet to remember "red=shatter" "orange=the soft shatter that puts me to sleep" "blue = the black tar stuff that makes me laugh" etc. But even in my mentally impaired condition, I do manage. The Oil Slicks come in a few...
This is not about which brand container to use; After reading the other threads here, I verified that my NoGoo containers weren't as pure as I'd hoped (white film on long stored concentrates; white film visible when bending the container), so I switched to Oil Slick containers.
After switching...
The Aerotank Mini is all stainless steel, and has an adjustable airflow ring. Street price ~ $20
The Mini Protank 3 is chrome plated brass, and has a fixed airflow. Street price ~ $10
Neither "works" better than the other for me, nor is their "leak profile" different. I prefer SS to Chrome...
I'm fairly sure that the Nano's are discussed in some detail earlier in this thread, but since I don't have time to search for you right now:
tl;dr = The Nano's have a much free-er draw, which I preferred to the Sapphire's. The Nano's have a nicer mouthpiece (I prefer a round mouthpiece to a...
They look like a variant of the BuddyTech "Budd" Sapphire tanks. I talk about them in the beginning of this (long) thread.
My experience with the Bud clearos was that they worked well, but the flavor wasn't great (wasn't terrible, just a bit burnt tasting). As far as longevity, I think I only...
BIG difference is in the available atty "modules" for the two. I prefer the mPT3. I use it as my go-to tank for Pure Gold, which is very very thick.
As I mentioned in the message you quoted, I am running a "FrankenHybrid" of the mPT3 and the MiniAeroTank. I prefer the stainless steel of the...
I wasn't comparing VV to VW mods, I was comparing mechanical (non-adjustable) mods to electronic mods. If you're going to use different atty's with a VV device, you gotta understand ohm's law.
I have both VV and VW mods, and I understand the difference, and I too generally recommend VW over VV...
The advantage to VV or VW over mech is that you can adjust the power to your coil to "tune" it to you satisfaction. If your hits are mostly tasting burnt, you can lower the power; if your hits are wispy and mostly non-existant, you can raise the power.
With a pure mech, you can't tune the hit...
Haven't noticed one; got a link, perhaps.
My Nautilus Mini arrived today, but it's going to be a while before I get a chance to use it. Looks really silly on top of a Vision Spinner (VV eGo type), even with the tapered sleeve, and more importantly, falls right over (it weighs more than the...
Not sure how fibers could detach from the goop that always surrounds them, but I hear you.
Maybe one day I'll find the time to build a coil into one of these attys, and I'll use a ceramic wick...
Yup, a plain old ordinary silica wick. I forgot to mention that in at least the last four months of use, I never cleaned it once. In the beginning, I used to clean it every couple of weeks (boiled, then ethanol soak) just, uhh, because. Turned out to not make any difference at all, even as far...
