Closed/Sold Geekvape Blade Crystal Sand and Illusion

Finally located my other two Blade mods. They are beauties and nice mods. I have no need of dual/larger batts and prefer smaller mods. These are lightweight, boxes included but not sealed. I tested the Illusion and used the Crystal Sand for one day so they are basically new .Color on the Crystal Sand is unique and changes depending on the light. A member expressed interest so for @AvaOrchid.......

The 'blemish' you see in the pic of the Crystal Sand is that peel off protective cover. I decided not to remove it. Here is info and pics:
  • Aircraft-grade PPS Material
  • 235W powerful and light TC MOD
  • Advanced aircraft grade material
  • Tri-button design for easy operation
  • 0.015s fast firing speed
  • Friendly user interface
  • Centered 510 thread
  • Micro-USB charging port
  • Dual 21700 battery (not included)
Has the upgraded AS Chip. The only negative I have found is it tends to tip over easily due to the shape. Mod only on the Illusion, the Crystal Sand is a kit. Tank was never used.

45.00 for each including shipping to CONUS, tracking and insurance. I can ship both in one package so if anyone wants both....$80 for the pair. Payable with paypal F&F, no mention of vape or ecigs.

iStick Pico errors

I pulled out my Pico from my 2019 stash and I used it for a month now its telling me no atomizer. I mess with the atomizer usually unscrewing it and it reads but not correctly. My coil is 0.5 and it is reading 0.77 ohm and 4.39 v at 25 w. Other than the watts this changes every time I have to mess with it. I suspect the pin is broken. Any ideas?

Pet peeves

As an old timer, I still enjoy reading a newspaper but delivery issues and costs have ended that. So I've turned to online news but noticed that many of the national news sites have reverted to paywalls. Even Google news links have gotten worse. I have found a workaround that works on most of the sites.
The local news channels are so loaded with ads that I lose patience waiting for them to load. And then the clickbait slideshow sites - who has time for that?

Frio Bar R5000 Disposable Designed by Freemax | Review by Z-Lee


Frio Bar R5000 Rechargeable Disposable
Designed & Manufactured by Freemax


mA7oAHR.png

BFacfHr.png

Hello vapers and welcome back. Today we'll be looking at the Frio Bar R5000, the largest sibling to the Frio Bar R3000, R1600, R600, 600, and 500, and the only one of the bunch that can be recharged for maximum puffs. This model along with the other 5 models were all designed and manufactured by Freemax which really adds some top notch quality to the flavor output. For anyone that's had the pleasure of vaping with the Freemax Fireluke or Mesh Pro tanks understands what I'm talking about. If you want top notch flavor and coils that will outlast most other coils on the market by a long shot, Freemax is the one to choose. In this regard, Frio Bar teaming up with Freemax to produce their line of disposables has resulted in a very similar outcome.

I'm going to be honest with you, I'll be the first to discourage anyone from starting their vape journey with a disposable simply because I don't think they're very cost effective or environmentally friendly. If neither of these two things bother you, however, and the only vape you can acquire that will keep you off the stinkies are disposables, then look no further.

I want to thank Tina, the Frio Bar team, and the Freemax team for supplying all 10 flavors the R5000 comes in for the purpose of this review. As always, I will remain objective (as possible) and unbiased.

This may be one of my more subjective reviews simply because the device is so simple to use, that it doesn't even come with an instruction manual. Thus, my evaluation aside from the basic operation and overall experience with this disposable will be the accuracy and thoughts on each individual flavor.

And now for the flip book.


**Pictures can be clicked on to enlarge for easier viewing**


-What's In The Box-

736oTbW.png

I received a variety pack with all 10 flavors that came in the "Middle" sized box (I'm not sure I want to see what the Large Box looks like, lol). Each individual disposable comes in a single box seen on the left. The only thing in the box is the R5000 disposable itself that comes in sealed plastic.

12bUOv2.jpg

On a side note, this is the first time I've noticed a warning label stating "NOT FOR USE BY CHILDREN OR NON-SMOKERS" on any device that I've recently seen. I'm not sure if this is something Frio Bar decided to do themselves, or if this is a result of further downward pressure applied by the FDA.


-To Start Vaping-
(This really doesn't need a tutorial, but alas)

wzts5Iq.jpg

Tear the end off from the cutout at the bottom end of the plastic.

UAzith8.jpg

Remember to remove the rubber seal in the mouth piece.

1cvPCa6.jpg

The sticker on the bottom needs to be removed to allow airflow and gaining access to the USB Type-C charging at a later point (all disposables arrived with near 100% charge).

af2Haxl.jpg

The bottom of the device has an LED that doesn't do much other than light up when taking a puff, light up when charging, and blink 3 times when the charging cable has been removed.

-Specs-

hx4oE4e.png
  • Pod Capacity: 12 mL
  • Puffs: Up to 5000 Puffs
  • Nicotine Strength: 50 mg/mL or 20 mg/mL (TPD)
  • Battery Capacity: 700 mAh
  • Charging: USB Type-C
  • Coil Resistance: 1.2Ω
  • Size: 114.96 * 28.15 * 28.1 mm (yes, this device is ever-so oblong in shape)

-The Look-

bbMrjOJ.png

The "R" in R5000 refers to the resin design implemented in the visual aesthetic in this disposable. This same design pattern can be found in the R3000, R1600, and R600 models. While this doesn't particularly reach out and grab me, the resin design gives this device a gleaming marble look which subliminally I'd associate with words like "solid", "hard", "durable", and "classy". Furthermore, when spinning each of the 10 different disposables in a complete circle, I don't see a reset line in the design pattern anywhere along the way indicating that these devices are carved out of a single piece of resin. For solidity purposes, it doesn't get much sturdier than this for PCTG. My clumsiness has knocked many of these disposables to the ground accidentally and none of them have faltered in the slightest.

The mouth piece is thin and oblong allowing it to fit very comfortably between your lips.

hinnNcu.jpg

The draw of this device is a pretty loose MTL however, the auto-draw detector is quite sensitive. You can draw as slow as you want, and you'll still be pulling in vape. You can also use loose lips on the mouth piece to allow additional airflow and vape this as an RDL. I will warn you however, you can draw in quite a bit of vape in this fashion and find yourself feeling a bit queasy and light-headed very quickly. This is generally how I vape MTL's, but take shorter puffs.


-The Coil-

A61nfjU.png

Freemax needs no introduction when it comes to flavor output and lifespan of their coils. FM SaltCOILTECH is their newest COILTECH innovation which they released with the Onnix and Onnix 2 using their 1.0Ω+ OX coils. The OX coils are definitely on par for flavor and coil life as the COILTECH 4.0 coils found in the 904L X and M coils found in the Fireluke 3 and Mesh Pro 2 tanks.

WH05mZk.png

Freemax uses a Tea Fiber Cotton Formula in their coils known to some reviewers such as MikeVapes as "voodoo magic", and it seems to be just that. I'm not sure how they do it, but their flavor output is consistently on point. This formula also boasts an antimicrobial property which may prove to be a better option for those sensitive to allergies or microorganisms.


-The Battery-

rOkOUPN.png

The Frio Bar R5000 uses a 700 mAh battery. While this may be a downsize from the R1600's 1300 mAh battery, the R5000 can be recharged while the other models cannot.

I must admit for the size, that this battery holds up for a very long time. I have an hour and a half commute to and from work, and while I haven't solely been using this device (the 5% nic strength is a bit much for my liking), with regular use I've only had to charge the battery once so far. My estimation in puffs for the disposable I've used the most would probably be in the 400ish range.

The only downside that I see to the charge port is that it recharges at 0.1 Amps. I'm not able to determine the full length of time for a full recharge simply because the LED only indicates when it's plugged in and when the cable has been disconnected. Doing the math however, it's estimated to take around 7 hours to fully charge. This might seem like a let down, and it kind of is, but you can be almost 100% sure the battery will last you an entire day. With that in mind, you simply put it on a charger overnight, and grab-n-go on the way out the door. This device also supports pass-through vaping meaning, you can safely vape it while it's charging.

xyGbnMq.png

I'd associate the longevity of the battery closer to the performance I'd expect from a mod with a 1.6 or 1.8 Ohm coil. Coils that have a higher resistance require less Wattage (battery power) to vape with however, often there's a trade off in the amount of flavor output. The flavor output is quite immense in these Frio Bars - sometimes a bit too much for my liking. Of course this is purely subjective and the powerful flavor production might be exactly what you're looking for.


-Model Comparisons-

ddjfATn.jpg

As mentioned before, the biggest factor that sets the R5000 apart from the others is the ability to recharge the battery. The R600 has a different selection of flavors, a 1.4 Ohm coil better suited for a smaller battery, and a 20 mg/mL nicotine strength as well as a 2 mL pod capacity to suit TPD restrictions.

VOOPOO ARGUS GT 2 KIT REVIEWED BY BIGBOB 2322

FIRST IMPRESSIONS


First off I have to say that the presentation of the Argus GT 2 Kit is great with a outer cardboard sleeve with most of the features printed on it, inside the cardboard sleeve is a attractive metal case with Argus Outdoor embossed on the top cover.

The original Argus GT Kit came in a nice case as well but it was plastic, the bonus of a case such as these is you now have a storage solution for various vape items such as coils, cotton, screwdrivers, cutters etc.


20220328_131508.jpg



Inside the case is a pre-formed plastic insert that all of the Argus GT 2 contents rest in with the user manual laying on top. I was sent a sample version from Voopoo but I don't see them changing anything on the final retail version as far as the kit presentation.

Your charge cable and 2 coils are in the accessory box located at the top, the 2 coils are the DM3 - 0.15Ω Mesh rated for between 80-100w with a best setting of 85-95w and the DM2 - 0.2Ω Mesh rated for between 40-60w with a best setting of 50-55w.

The first word out of my mouth was WOW and I didn't even pick the device or tank up yet.

Seeing the metal skeleton of the device and knowing it was IP68 rated I thought it was going to be a heavy mod but it's not overly heavy without batteries.

Rubbing my hand across the spine that looks like a woodgrain leather but had more of a grippy rubber feel to it with some cushiony give as well, it feels great in the hand either finger firing or using your thumb. The Argus GT2 name is lightly embossed on the spine.

As you can see in my opening photo the Argus GT2 is a real looker of a device.


20220402_103809.jpg



Starting at the top with the new design of the Maat that has a nice 6.5ml capacity I like the new look except for the bottom of the base that has a rounded off look, it works as far as a match for the mod but it would have looked even better if the base had a flatter bottom, installing the tank there is a miniscule gap to protect the finish on the top plate of the mod.

There are 2 airflow slots 180° from each other with 2 airflow controls between them, the airflow controls are not independent of each other, adjusting 1 adjusts the other as well. The 810 drip tip has 2 O-rings on it with a metal base and is comfortable on the lips and looks good as well.

The coils are a push and pull type with no flat spots needed to be lined up, just prime the coil, push it into the tank and screw on the base.


20220402_172348.jpg



I'm happy with the top fill of the Tank having a easy 1/4 opening making refills a little quicker, as shown in the photo above the top cap has knurling in 3 spots.

There are 2 fill ports that have a silicone covering with a tiny hole that open when a juice bottle tip is pushed in then seal back up once it's removed, I have had a no mess experience filling the Maat tank in the time I've used it.

Turning our attention to the Argus GT 2 mod's top, the 510 pin is spring loaded with a good amount of travel and fit the various atomizers that I screwed on. There is a raised cover that slides open covering the Type-C charge port, below the charge port is a step-down of silicone rubber ledges that give a nice accent to the device in my opinion.

Being a dual 18650 device as most devices do batteries are loaded into the device via a battery door located on the bottom of the Argus GT 2. This is normally a week spot for devices that use this type of system but the battery door's opening/locking switch is very strong with no play in the door when opened, the spring is very solid and I see this lasting without any problems occurring. The same silicone material that the top plate has surrounding also surrounds the bottom as well.

Opening the battery door shows correct battery polarity symbols of + (plus) and - (minus) on the gold plated battery door contact points but there is no markings inside the battery tubes, notice the large rubber O-ring surrounding the door cover plate.

I was happy to see a nice sized display screen with vibrant and vivid colors but I wish the font size was a little larger, having 6 power modes including TC should make every type of vaper happy, I've tried all power modes except for TC because I don't use it in my personal vaping and have no TC metals to make a coil in another atomizer to test the TC function out and since I don't use it I couldn't give you a correct finding on the TC function anyway.

Each power mode has it's own dedicated color with 1 color designated for all TC metals.

(Smart Mode) limits The Wattage To The Maximum Allowed Of The Coil Used - ORANGE

(RBA Mode) Allows You To Use The Full Wattage Capabilities ( 200 Watts ) - Blue

(Turbo Mode) Gives A Faster Ramp Up - Red

(TC Mode) - (NI, SS, TI) All Metals Use The Same Color - Lime Green



Using the menu is very easy because you only have to use 1 button combination to enter the menu and make all your adjustments outside of wattage or temperature adjustments.

( Press And Hold The Up And Down Buttons Simultaneously)



MENU FUNCTIONS

* Power Modes - Smart, RBA, Turbo, TC With 3 Memory Pre-Sets You Can Customize

* Settings - Clears The Puff Counter - There May Be More Settings On The Retail Version

* About Device - Tells You The Version Of The Chipset And Level Code

* Exit - Takes You Out Of The Menu


LOCKING SWITCH

At the bottom of your up and down adjustment buttons is a locking switch that locks the entire device including the fire button for safe carry in a pocket or handbag without having to turn the device off with the standard 5 presses of the fire button. ( Great Feature )

FINAL IMPRESSIONS AFTER USING THE ARGUS GT 2 KIT


20220402_164205.jpg



It's been a joy using the new Argus Gt 2 Kit, I reviewed the original Argus GT Kit when Voopoo first released it and liked it so much I bought 2 additional kits and they are still in my personal rotation of devices so I know the Argus GT very well.

The new Argus GT 2 mod is a bit thicker and heavier than the original but because it sports a IP68 rating that's to be expected and I really like the new design. With it having a chrome skeleton it is a fingerprint magnet but not as much as some devices using chrome.

Whatever the material is on the spine looks good and feels great in the hand, as I said earlier it feel like a rubber surface that gives a grippy feel to the device. The device is solidly constructed and feels like a IP68 rated device should feel. I have not tortured the device to see how well it would hold up because it's to beautiful of a device to damage the outside to prove it's capability, but I did check it's waterproof claim at it passed the test.

Having such a simple and easy menu is a big plus as well, needing to press only 2 buttons to enter the menu without having to remember different button combinations will make everyone happy. The buttons all feel good with no rattle, the fire button has some play that when the device is shaken can be barely heard but I'm not in the habit of shaking my mods during normal use so it's fine, besides this is a sample version and not the final retail one. I hope that more selections other than a puff clear will be included in the final version though.

The lock switch works great and is a feature that I wish all devices had because of the ease of flicking a switch and stowing away in a pocket safely.

I have noticed 2 glitches with the sample version though, the first being that the batteries don't discharge at the same rate in the battery % screen, 1 is always less than the other when vaping, I haven't noticed any change in performance but I did want to mention it.

The 2nd glitch is with the puff counter not keeping the correct number of vapes when a battery change is performed, it always displays a different number count than what it should be. Other than the 2 glitches that I've mentioned the device performs great.

It seems like the trend now days on tanks is to have MASSIVE AIRFLOW and the Maat Tank follows with that trend. Massive airflow is fine as long as you are able to decrease it without any turbulence, whistle or funny sound when you do and I'm happy to report the Maat Tank can be closed down to a very good RDL vape without the mentioned sounds occurring. Airflow is smooth at any setting you choose. Both the provided coils produce very good flavor with the 0.15Ω being more in my style of warmth. Using the 0.15Ω 80 watts was all I needed to produce very good flavor, using the 0.2Ω coil I liked it at 52 watts and saw no need to increase wattage.

My personal opinion on the Argus Gt 2 Kit is that it's a win win for both the mod as well as the tank for performance with a big win on the appearance of the mod. I like the Maat Tanks appearance as well but would have liked it even more if the base was flat at the bottom but because of it's performance I can overlook that, besides it's just a cosmetic preference of mine to have a flat bottomed base.

I would like to thank Aimer and Voopoo for providing the Argus GT 2 Kit for the purpose of this review and I hope my review answered all your questions regarding the Argus GT 2 Kit. It's a winner for sure and highly recommend it to you all.

THANK YOU

(fixed)The second time this has happened, atomizer short.

OMG WAIT!! I unscrewed the tank and just wiped it off and it's working fine now. .... Sorry. Should I just delete this post?

I have these single mesh Valyrian 3 coils, it's been working beautiful. No burning or nothing, great flavor. BUT. For the second time now, after nearly the same amount of use.
The screen goes into sleep mode, and when I click the button it says "atomizer short" then I hit it again and it's totally fine. I installed it just a day ago. As long as the screen is on, it works fine. Soon as it hits sleep mode, I get the atomizer short. I installed the coil nice and tight, ensuring that I wouldnt have to take it back apart. Like. For real. Is there something wrong with my mod? Is this a fluke? It seems to work fine after the message clears, but it's annoying.

I dont know if this matters but, its. .32 ohm coil. Idle it reads .29-.30. when I hit it, it reads .34-.36 that's normal right? Lol sorry I'm such a noob.

Tell me about RDA/RTA, are these good?

I went to the mall to check out this vape stores tanks, and I thought it was a little too expensive, but he had these for sale for just 5$ each. On the back the prices are like 50$-65$. I just got them cause they were pretty cheap. What do I have here?

Doing the new user thing

Hmm, 5 posts to get out of the playpen. I'd lurked here and messed about on reddit ecr up until the PMTA madness.

I wish I had things of merit to post but also can't post with the explicit intent to play with the big kids. So now I'm here because I can stand reddit no longer, and I saw mooch still active here.

I guess I'm also trying to, remember the username of the guy that had those 2 batt, injection molded battery sleds for Hammond boxes. Maybe see what neat stuff he's done since.

Last things I'd messed with was mounting and actuator crap for the first smart pwm board on shapeways, with the STL. The liability part of the rules read as though doing so here would bring about a quick ban, as is. Is that correct or no?

Fruity iced Sadboy flavors, what other juices are like them?

Im a fan of the multi-flavor juices, rather than just single fruit flavors. I prefer mentholated too. I really like the sadboy flavors I got so far. the iced punch flavor, it literally tastes like a berry pink lemonade, and I just picked up rainbow blood ice. I like it, but I have absolutely no idea what the flavor is. I definitely get guava, but it's very interesting. I like these type of juices. I'm now getting hints of banana and pineapple in this one too...and...maybe mango and for some reason.. carrot. Lol I thought this one was funky at first, but dang it's got a very nice multi flavor mix.

Evidence Mounts That Cigarette Sales Surge After Vape Bans

"State-level vaping bans are associated with increases in cigarette sales, according to new research. The study, published in the scientific journal Value in Health, adds to a growing body of evidence that prohibiting the sale of e-cigarettes has potentially driven more and more people away from safer nicotine alternatives and back to smoking.

They found that an additional 3.4 million cigarette packs were sold through convenience stores across the three states during a three-month study period.

Using state-level cigarette sales data, the researchers found that Massachusetts, which enacted a full ban on nicotine vapes, had 7.5 percent higher-than-expected per capita cigarette sales. Rhode Island and Washington, which enacted bans on non-tobacco flavored nicotine vapes, had an average estimate of 4.6 percent higher-than-expected per capita cigarette sales as well. Based on actual and estimated cigarette sales, the researchers suggested that an additional 3.4 million cigarette packs were sold through convenience stores across the three states during a three-month study period starting from the effective date of each respective ban.........."
