Default Mini-pipe. First impressions. And a damn.

So I just got my mini-pipe from Smokejuice in the mail today.

First impressions:

Man this thing is tiny. Smaller than it looked in pics or even videos. Much smaller than any pipe I've ever used. Maybe it's cause I'm a big guy, who knows.

I already like it more than my pen. Similar (if not identical) atomizer, nice soft rubber mouthpiece, and I can see the LED while it's hanging out of my mouth.

Nice vapor production. I was, however, under the impression that there was no auto-cutoff. Not so, it seems to be around 7 seconds or so.

The Damn:

I ordered it from Smokejuice, who is in the UK. The charger has a UK plug... and no adapter. Guess I'm heading to the store!

Well, I've only had it for about an hour or two, so I've only tried one of my DIY blends. It doesn't have great throat hit to begin with. Since I've tried it in a couple of my other devices, I'd say it's a better throat hit than my Pen, and not as strong as my 901. Once I run through the cart I put in there, I'll load it up with some hard-hitting Totally Wicked Menthol and let you know how it goes.

I'll add that the vapor production is better than both the Pen and the 901.

Hi Walrus -

Glad you finally received your mini pipe safely and it made it through customs alright.

The charger is unfortunately the Euro plug version at the moment, but we should be getting some US versions in stock at a later date.

It will only require an adapter such as this one to get it to work in the US and you should be able to pick one of these up from your nearest electrical retailer with any luck.

Happy Vaping!

Thanks again, Deuce. Yeah, I know what kind of adapter to look for, and actually have one around here someplace from a cell phone I had years ago. I'm hoping to find it before the initial charge on the batteries runs out Otherwise, I'm gonna actually have to get dressed and leave the house!

The killer is this... I can find the adapter on-line for as cheap as $1. The closest store locally to carry it (Radio Shack) sells it for $11.95. I could order it and wait for it to come in... but damn... after waiting a couple of weeks to get it, and having it hanging from my mouth since it came in... I can't put it back down that long.

I don't know what the initial charge was on the batteries, but I'm already on the second one.

GHAAAAAAAAAA /envy =(

I ordered the Mini Pipe (with some juice'n'stuff) from smokejuice too, and still have to receive it. I ordered on Sunday 15/3, and they shipped on 17/3, fair enough to me, moreso since Sunday is Sunday =). I must also note that Tim answered a first email of mine within 2 hours, and a second one in less than a day, promptly acknowledging both of my requests. The stuff has been handed over to my country postal service, and i hope the package to be here soon.

So far so good with smokejuice, communicative and on spot. I'll keep you updated with my first impressions on the mini pipe.

So Smokindeuce, are you actually Tim? =)

Believe me you guys will love the throat hit and the vapor it produces. I've had mine for about a month now. I also love the way eliquids taste with the minipipe....every single one of my liquids taste better with this thing. That being said... one of my switches died on me today. I am lucky I got my spare one the other day.

Switches? Do you mean the atomizer? The switch on these (I assume) is in the pipe body. I'd hate to have to replace it.
