Why does it go to 50 watts?

Somehow, I inadvertently pushed the buttons just wrong today and it went from 7 watts (my usual power setting) to 50 watts (the highest setting). I didn't even mean to push any of those buttons.

I experienced instant burnout and a horrible taste in my mouth and the coil was instantly ruined.

Do people really vape at such high power? If so, how often do you have to replace the coil? And how many ohms are you putting that through? The coil I replaced it with is 1.77 ohms which is about the same as the one I burned out.

50 watts seems so excessive to me that I double-checked and yes, that's what it says it goes up to. Even at 7.5 watts the coils seem to burn out too fast which is why I vape at 7.

I feel like Nigel Tufnel designed this thing. "But it goes to 50. That's 43 higher than 7. So it's like 43 more. So when you're vaping at 7 watts and you want that extra push over the cliff..."

(I'm actually impressed that Nigel could do the math to figure that 50 was 43 higher than 7)

ZQ Xtal Pod System

Hi ECF members, In this review i take a look at the Xtal Pod System from ZQ Vapor. The Xtal Pod System was supplied for the purpose of this review by Rico from ZQ Vapor.

ZQ Xtal Pod System



Introduction

ZQ Vapor are new to the vaping scene and have gone mostly below the radar with their first couple of pod releases but here we have a Caliburn alternative which is grabbing more attention not just for it's Caliburn style form factor and similar match in specs but because it also gives it a run for it's money when it comes to performance. The performance quality of the device becomes less of a surprise when finding out ZQ Vapor products are manufactured by Aspire, let's give it a closer look!

___________________________________________________________________



In The Box



Contents:

1 x Xtal Device
2 x Pod 1.2 ohm coils
1 x Micro USB Cable
1 x User Manual
1 x Warranty Card



___________________________________________________________________



Aesthetics and Ergonomics

The Xtal came in simple cardboard packaging with the device in the top layer and other accessories and paperwork below. I received the Red version which is a nice Red Wine colour, it's available in Black, Teal, Gunmetal and Red.

The device has an Aluminium construction and flattened stick form factor very similar to the Caliburn but with more cut diamond characteristics. Either side towards the top we have a very small hole for airflow and on reverse towards the bottom a small logo. On the face towards the bottom we have "XTAL" printed and a tactile Black hexagonal fire button towards the top, although Black the button is translucent to allow it to be lit up different colours via LED lights. The pod protrudes with very slightly tinted mouthpiece and moving to the base we have a Black plastic section which houses the micro USB port. The device is very portable and can be easily slipped into a pocket making it ideal for out and about.




___________________________________________________________________



Xtal Specs and Features:

Product Size: 22 x 12.5 x 113mm
Material: Aluminium
520mah battery
Charge Rate: 0.8A Max
Direct Output: 3.2v - 4.2v
Draw/Button activated
Dual heating coil
1.8ml pod capacity
Unique concentration proofing system
Coil Resistance: Nichrome 1.2ohm
Available 1.0ohm mesh pod
Colours: Black, Teal, Gunmetal, Red





___________________________________________________________________



The Pod

You receive 2 pods both of which house a non replaceable 1.2ohm round wire Ni-chrome coil head although also available is a 1.0ohm mesh pod, both have a 1.8ml capacity. There are no specs marked on the included pods but the mesh pods (which were sent separately) have both mesh and the resistance marked in White on the lower section of the pod.





So the pod is a sealed unit so the whole pod will need replacing rather than just the coil but they are refillable and on the upside in my experience leaking isn't usually a problem with this type of sealed pod. The pods are tinted but only lightly so i had good visibility of the liquid inside and although the Caliburn has very narrow side viewing slots i found it much easier to see how much liquid was in the pod on the Xtal and had no need to remove the pod to check which is always a pro.





On the base we have a plastic flap with attached bung which sits deep giving a good seal, so just lift this flap to remove the bung (the flap stays attached to the pod) to reveal a fill port which is big enough for most nozzles but bottles with larger nozzles or glass droppers won't be suitable. Also under the flap is a tiny air release hole so there is no backing up of liquid through the fill port, i found filling quick and mess free but always prefer not to have to remove the pod to fill so that has to go down as a con for me!





Also on the base we can see the 2 contacts with Peek surround and 2 openings for the membrane probe to enter so it doesn't matter which way the pod is fitted.




___________________________________________________________________



Fitting The Pod

Looking inside the pods bay we can see the spring loaded, Gold plated contacts and a protruding probe that leads down to the membrane switch. We also see an indent in both side walls for protruding notches on the side of the pod to fit into to help secure the pod when press fitted into place.

When pushing the pod in place it gives a satisfying click as the notches snap into place and there is no movement whatsoever, front and back we can feel just a slight edge to the pod where it meets the device which can be used for grip to tug the pod free, cracking job!



___________________________________________________________________



Operating The Xtal

The Xtal is both draw and button activated which also allows the device to be turned on and off, both actions are 5 clicks of the button and is confirmed by 3 White flashes. Once on we have 3 settings and to move between each setting is 3 quick clicks of the button, each new setting is confirmed by one flash of the button in either Purple, Red or Blue. The three settings are for being able to use the device with both the button and Auto draw, just Auto draw or just via the fire button.

Purple: Auto/Button
Red: Auto Draw
Blue: Button Only





The device also shows battery status indication using again the LED shining through the translucent fire button various colours when taking a vape, you can also just give the fire button a quick press to check status. The indication percentages are the following:

Green = Above 60%
Blue = 30% - 60%
Red = Below 30%





As you would also expect the Xtal has the usual safety protections which also uses LED alerts if they kick in.




___________________________________________________________________



Protections:

5 Click Turn Off
8 Seconds Cutoff
Short Circuit Protection
Low Voltage Protection



___________________________________________________________________



Charging

The Xtal is charged via the micro USB port situated on the base of the device which is always a con for me as it means lying the device down while charging although with the Xtal having quite a small base i suppose a lot of people will leave it lying down during normal use even though it stands up perfectly alright.

The charge rate is 0.8A maximum and charges in about an hour while supporting pass-through which for such a small battery is fine although i still think Type C by now should be standard with all e-cigarette devices.

When first attaching the cable the button flashes Red 3 times and then follows the same battery status sequence as when in use before flashing Green 20 times and then turning off once fully charged.



___________________________________________________________________



My Experience Using The Xtal And Thoughts!

A lot of pod devices get compared to the Caliburn but on this occasion i give absolutely no apologies as the Xtal is the closet match i have used and even when using side by side the more comfortable Caliburn mouthpiece is the only difference i noticed at first! After more comparing using both side by side if anything the Xtal gives a very slightly tighter draw but it's so marginal so both pretty much vape identically giving the choice of a loose MTL or RDL vaping style.

When it comes to flavour the Xtal definitely had the edge although to be fair the pod i had in the Caliburn had already had light usage so let's just say the Xtal at least matches the Caliburn for flavour as it does with performance with the membrane switch responding flawlessly matching the button fire option. When trying the mesh pod i noticed no difference with draw or flavour but just a slightly cooler vape but this did give really good longevity of 9 refills before the flavour was sub-standard compared to 6 refills for the 1.2ohm Ni-chrome pod which is still acceptable in my opinion.

I do like being able to set the device so either only draw activation or only button activation will work as well as having a setting where you can switch between the two. Battery status indication although only 3 tiers is well spaced out so fit for purpose and charging in an hour while supporting pass-through again is acceptable although Type C and a quicker charging time would be preferable!

The mouthpiece is comfortable enough although the shape of the Caliburn's mouthpiece does give even more comfort but i much prefer being able to view the liquid using the mouthpiece compared to the narrow slots on the Caliburn which in my opinion are not fit for purpose. I like how the fill method is implemented but would much prefer a top-fill design and finally constant output would again be preferable but any drop off in power really can't be noticed until the battery is close to being needed to recharge. The 520mAh battery capacity is quite small especially when comparing to most pod/AIO devices now coming out but with such high resistant coils life is actually quite good if a light to moderate vaper but most will need to charge at least once during the day!

Damn Vape Wotan - Interesting airflow options...

The Damn Vape Wotan is a new stock coiler from the folks at Damn Vape. The Wotan is your classic large coil mesh tank, however, it does come with something interesting in the accessories package, different airflow inserts to change the pressure and angle of the air getting into the coil.

Wirice Launcher Tank review - Hellvape and Wirice’s creation

Hi, everybody. Today, we will introduce to you the joint project of Hellvape and Wirice in the form of an innovative Launcher Tank. The device was released with another more well-known and older brand, Hellvape, which certainly knows a lot about the development of various atomizers.
wirice_launcher_mesh_tank_25mm_colors.jpg

Features:
Height: 54mm
Diameter: 25mm / 26.5mm
Weight: 63.5g
Material: SUS 304, Pyrex, PCTG
Capacity: 5ml / 4ml / 2ml
Evaporators: W801 0.15Ω Mesh, W802 0.21Ω Mesh
Drip types: 810

Currently, Launcher Vape Tank has a variety of possible body colors to choose from, there are 7 options: black, bronze, steel, gold, blue, iridescent and purple. The equipment is mainly made of 304 stainless steel markers, and the diameter when matched is standard 25mm, which can be expanded to 26.5mm.
wirice_launcher_mesh_tank_25mm_bottom_view.jpg

The main innovative feature of Launcher Tank is the evaporator fixing system. To remove the coil, you need to unscrew the drip-shaped gasket on the top, then the evaporator will fall in a mediocre way, and the installation method of the replacement part is also the same.

This solution will keep users from getting their hands. The vape tank will be equipped with two different evaporators: W8010.15Ω mesh and W8020.21Ω mesh. If you like this tank, you can click here to buy: Wirice Launcher Mesh Sub Ohm Tank 25mm 4ml

Is SMOK RPM 2S Pod Mod Kit Worth Buying?

Hey guys. Are you looking for decent pod mod kits? Why not check out the latest RPM 2S Kit by SMOK? It is definitely an ideal device to vape with liquid enak 2020, especially if you prefer using external batteries.

SMOK RPM 2S Kit is an update to the RPM 2 Kit. The one major change with this version is that it's powered by an external high drain 18650 battery rather than a built-in battery. Since this is the case, it is slightly longer, but still remains pocket friendly and comfortable in the hands. Additionally, the RPM 2S has a maximum wattage output of 80w. It's fully adjustable using the buttons right underneath the large 1.14" display screen. This is by far one of the largest screens and bigger than most other pod vapes.
smok_rpm_2s_pod_mod_kit_80w.jpg

What's great about this kit is that you do get two different refillable pods. The first one is the RPM 2 pod that has a built-in RPM 2 0.16ohm mesh coil. Secondly, you've got another RPM 2 cartridge but has an original RPM 0.4ohm mesh coil head. Now, here's the best part, both pod cartridges have a maximum e-juice capacity of 7ml! Lastly, the RPM 2S has an upgraded airflow system, with larger holes allowing for even more clouds!

The body of this Hybrid is entirely built in solid zinc alloy, this feature raises its weight, however the extremely small dimensions and the perfect fitting of the parts favor its portability.

On the front side, the Fire key is placed at the top in its classic ideal position, its surface is mirror polished, the Fire key is made of metal, its shape is round, slightly protruding.

The screen has a 0.96-inch color TFT display that contains all the information useful for vaping, we find: the graphic level with residual battery charge percentage, coil Ω, Watts set, last Puff duration, puff counter, lock / unlock icon in the shape of a padlock, indication on the six available and selectable background colors.

The two up / down adjustment keys are basically a scaled-down execution of the Fire key.

The Micro-Usb socket is the last detail of the front and is located in the lower part.

The back side is bare, with a clean line without frills, it blends well with the lower and upper shelves.

Both panels are colored "Black marine", off-centered at the top on both sides we find a black plastic insert well inserted in the line of the Mod. This detail has the dual task of making visible the level of residual liquid and to air to the coil through three slots.

The silver band present on both panels, takes on different shades of color depending on the exposure to light, on one panel the writing "Gemini Hybrid" on the other shows the writing "Lost Vape".

6.jpg


The top shelf is an integral part of the structure, aesthetically very beautiful compared to the classic pods with often unstable attacks, the Drip-Tip 510 is replaceable.

On the bottom of the mod we find the notch to open the battery door, this notch also acts as a vent of the 18650 cell.
Always on the bottom they are present; the C E mark, the disposal logo and the words "Designed and manufactured by Lost Vape LTD".

The pod compartment has the contact poles marked, gold / plated, with the bottom one floating. To facilitate the extraction of the cell there is a practical and useful strap marked Lost Vape.

Four magnets positioned on the four corners of the battery compartment hold the door effectively and without any movement.
In the same picture you can see the Pod installed, the air adjustment ring is completely wide open.

In this image the Gemini Hybrid Kit with the 18650 cell inserted, the internal part of the door being metal does not have magnets.

Included in the kit there are two rubber caps to further choke the two external air-flows, however the air control ring performs its task very well by itself, making them superfluous.

To remove the Pod from the Hibryd you must first remove the lid from the battery compartment, then you must remove the Drip-Tip, finally you must press on the recess created specifically on the top of the cartridge and pull, to insert it you carry out the reverse procedure, this operation is easier to do than describe it and it's really simple.

9.jpg


The Hibryd has two 510 Drip-Tips, one very thin, elongated, reminiscent of a cigarette mouthpiece and is suitable for MTL vaping with the 1.0Ω Ultra Boost MTL coil, the other Drip-tip is designed for the Flavor, in my opinion the latter has an excellent performance at 40 / 45W.

The Pod with a liquid capacity of 4ml has the refil cap placed at the top, once the lid has been removed it is possible to comfortably carry out the filling operation without removing it from its seat.

The liquid control side windows offer good visual control thanks to the very clear material of the pod

Volunteers sought for study of long-term effect of vaping.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDY OF THE LONG-TERM EFFECT OF VAPING ON LUNG HEALTH
The VERITAS cohort study will be an international study of six or more years. It will observe the health outcomes of subjects who vape exclusively, compared to a control group of subjects who have never vaped or used tobacco products. It will measure the health outcomes of both groups, through self-reported health status, clinical assessment and laboratory testing of lung health.

Participants we are Seeking
We require participants who currently vape, but have never smoked tobacco, or have smoked less than 1,000 cigarettes ever.

Commitment Required of Participants
Participating in this study will involve approximately annual medical examinations over the course of six years, which will include lung function tests and CT scans. Each study site will have a single clinic, which participants will need to visit for these examinations. Responding to surveys approximately every three months is also required.

We are counting on vapers to volunteer to help with this important research, so there is no payment for participation. However, the examinations will be free and any modest travel and other expenses will be reimbursed as a token of our appreciation for your participation.

Global Scope of Study
Locations arranged so far are: Canada (Greater Toronto Area), Costa Rica (whole country), England (several sites), Estonia (whole country), Germany (Bavaria/Munich), Greece (Athens), Hungary (Budapest), Ireland (Dublin), Italy (several sites), Mexico (Mexico City), New Zealand (Auckland), Poland (several sites), Portugal (Lisbon), Scotland (Glasgow), and the USA (several sites).

OXVA Origin AIO & Unicoil RBA Review

OXVA Origin AIO & Unicoil RBA
Introduction

The OXVA Origin is an AIO from OXVA, a relatively new company in the vaping world. OXVA was founded by Justin Lai, who designed the Aegis series of mods and Zeus tanks at Geekvape, so there’s a lot of pedigree behind the company despite them being new kids on the block.

The OXVA Origin is an AIO which features a refillable pod and has a power output range between 5-40W. It uses an external 18650 battery and is, according to OXVA, the smallest 18650 AIO.

Let’s take a look at the Origin AIO.

Disclaimer: I was sent the Origin AIO for review by OXVA.

Design & Build Quality
The Origin has a drip tip on the top of the device, however it is not a standard 510 drip tip. It is tapered in shape, being slightly thinner at the top than the bottom. It’s a comfortable drip tip to use, but being non standard, if you lose it or break it you cannot just pop another one on. I would have either preferred it to be non removable or a standard 510 fit, personally.

The body of the device is tall and slim, fitting in your hand comfortably. It is wider on one side, creating a very nice overall shape to hold onto. The frame of the body is metal and it has two plastic panels on either side.

One of these panels is removed to reveal the battery compartment and the pod. The removable panel is held on by two magnets, which are plenty strong enough. You can hold the panel about 1cm away and let go; it snaps right into place. It’s not coming off unless you want it to, so no worries about it falling off accidentally.

The battery compartment has a ribbon to help you remove your battery for charging and there is no wiggle of the battery when installed.

The panel on the other side of the device has a little window to allow you to see your liquid level. I have found the window to be absolutely fine for viewing the liquid level, it’s not difficult to see like with some other AIO devices. Below the window are 3 airflow holes and below these is the OXVA logo.

On the bottom of the device are some battery venting holes and the usual safety marks.

On the front of the device is the Origin name, the fire button, screen, wattage adjustment button and a micro USB port.

The fire button is circular and convex shaped. It is also surrounded by an LED indicator. It is clicky and responsive when pressed. It took a little time to get used to the button, due to its size, but it works absolutely fine and you get used to it.

The screen of the Origin displays your wattage, voltage, coil resistance and battery life. It’s black and white and is perfectly legible even when outside in bright daylight. There are no menus to navigate, everything is displayed on one screen.

The adjustment button is a single button, which scrolls up through your wattage selection. Once you reach 40W you press it again to round robin. Single clicks adjust in one watt increments and you can hold the button to scroll up through wattages faster. The single button configuration works absolutely fine and the button is nice and accurate when letting go.

Overall, the build quality of the device is high. It feels nice and sturdy and well put together. My only niggle from an aesthetic point of view is that the plastic panels have a glossy finish, so they attract fingerprints and smudges. I would have preferred them to have a matt finish like the metal frame of the device.

Features & Functions
The Origin is powered by the Photon chip, which allows it to fire between 5-40W. It also features an intelligent-match system where it generates the adjustment range of the coil installed, based on its resistance. This should ensure that you don't burn your coil by using too high of a wattage.

The Origin is a really simple device to use. The only thing you are going to be adjusting is your wattage, and you can't really go wrong with this due to the limiting of the wattage range based on the coil resistance.

Below are the button combinations for usage:
  • To turn the device on you press the fire button five times within two seconds.
  • The adjustment button can be pressed to increase wattage in one watt increments, held to cycle up through wattages. Once you reach the max wattage pressing again will cycle down to 5W.
  • To turn the device off you press the fire button five times within two seconds.
  • To lock or unlock the device hold the fire button and the adjustment button for three seconds.

Pod
The pod is located by removing the side panel. It sits at the top of the inside of the device, above the battery. Removing the pod is done by placing a fingernail in the groove on the right side of the pod and pulling, it will swivel out of the device and can then be removed.

The pod can hold 3ml of liquid (2ml TPD) and is filled by removing the rubber stopper from the fill port. It is easy enough to fill and I have experienced no leaking from the fill port, despite it being located on the side of the pod. The rubber stopper fits firmly into place with a nice click and doesn't feel flimsy.

The airflow control ring is actually attached to the bottom of the coil you have installed. It’s important to note that the airflow control ring is reusable, so don’t throw it away when changing coils!

Adjusting the airflow has to be done with the pod out of the tank. I can’t reach it with a nail when the pod is installed. Once the pod is removed it turns nicely and is neither too stiff or too slack.

To remove a coil you just pull the airflow control ring and the pod will come out of the bottom of the pod. You will need to do this when the tank is empty otherwise you will have liquid leaking out of the pod. It is possible to do when you have roughly a half pod of liquid, but you will have to keep the pod on its side when doing this to avoid spilling the liquid remaining in the pod.

Installing a new coil is simple to do. Remove the airflow control ring from the old coil, screw a new coil to the airflow control ring and push the coil into the bottom of the pod, taking care to make sure you have lined up the airflow control ring correctly. You will know it’s in correctly as you will struggle to put the pod back into the device if it’s not pushed in properly.

I always fill the pod with liquid and leave it to sit for about 5 minutes to allow the coil to saturate with liquid.

The pod then pushes back into the device. I find it easier to push the left side first where the connection is, then push the right side of the pod into place.

Coils
You get a 0.3ohm mesh coil already installed in the Origin and a 0.5ohm mesh coil in the box. You can also purchase a 1ohm coil and there is an RBA kit available too.

The 0.3ohm coil is rated between 30-40W and is meant for DTL vaping. The 0.5ohm coil is rated between 20-25W and is again a DTL coil, but you can get a loose MTL vape if you close the airflow down. The 1ohm coil is rated between 10-15W and is a MTL coil.

The RBA kit allows you to install your own single coil builds. I’m interested to see if the Origin suggests a wattage range when you install your own build.

Performance
I tried the 0.3ohm coil first as it was already installed. With the airflow fully open you get a lot of airflow with this coil. The amount of cloud production is very impressive from such a small coil. It is rated 30-40W and the flavour is also very impressive. I found the flavour to be excellent even as low as 25W.

The 0.5ohm coil was tried next. This coil is rated for use between 20-25W. With the airflow wide open it gives a slightly more restricted vape than the 0.3ohm coil. It still gives a DTL draw but closing down the airflow will allow you to get a loose MTL draw if you prefer. Cloud production is slightly less than with the 0.3ohm coil, which is to be expected at the lower wattage range. Flavour production seems the same as the 0.3ohm coil, but it is a cooler vape.

I next tried the 1ohm coil, which is a much more restricted draw. Being rated between 10-15W the cloud production is obviously going to be less than the previous coils. It has less flavour than the other two coils, but it is still a very nice flavour.

Overall I am very impressed with all of the coil options. You can choose which will suit your style of vaping and the flavour performance is great. I personally prefer MTL or very restrictive DTL vaping. The 1ohm coil, despite it’s lesser flavour, gives me a nice and satisfying MTL draw. It’s not the tightest MTL draw, but definitely tight enough for MTL vaping.

Another note on performance is battery life. Obviously this will depend on battery choice, but I was getting two days usage out of a battery, when on other AIO devices that use an 18650 I would need to swap batteries before the day is out.

I also experienced zero leaking when using the OXVA. This was true with all three pre-built coils and the RBA section.

f6YzdHU.jpg


RBA Kit
The RBA kit comes with the RBA coil, a 510 connector for testing resistance and dry firing your coil, a Ni80 spaced wire coil rated between 18-23W, cotton and some spare screws, o-rings and a little screwdriver; everything you need to get up and running with the RBA coil.

The deck is small but not difficult to build on. You just unscrew the philips screws, place the coil legs between the screw and little barrier, and tighten down.

Make sure the coil is centered over the air hole, then snip the excess legs off.

You can dry burn the coil to make sure there are no hotspots, but a spaced coil like the included one should be fine. It ohmed out at 0.59ohm.

Next you feed the cotton through the coil and cut off any excess. The included cotton was slightly too thick so I thinned it out quite a lot.

The cotton just rests in the little channels on the side so it may be easier to wet the cotton with some liquid to help it sit in the channels, and put some liquid on the coil to saturate the cotton within.

Lastly the cap is screwed back on.

Don’t forget to remove the 510 connector and screw the airflow control ring onto the bottom of the RBA coil before pushing it into the pod.

Upon installing the pod with the RBA coil fitted I can confirm that the Photon chip reads the resistance of the installed coil in the RBA and sets a wattage range. On the included 0.6ohm Ni80 coil it let me fire up to 25W. I thought this was a great little feature, especially for anyone new to building.

The RBA coil vapes great also. I thought there was going to be too much cotton initially, but it vaped fine, with no dry hits and checking the pod after every draw showed bubbles happily escaping the RBA coil, indicating it was wicking fine.

Verdict
I am very impressed with the Origin AIO. It feels great in the hand when vaping, the battery performance is stellar, and the coil performance is excellent. Flavour is great from any of the coils available and the RBA coil is excellent too; easy to build on despite its small size. The choice of DTL or MTL coils gives the Origin versatility too.

I wish the panels on the body of the device had a matt finish and the ability to change the airflow while the pod is fitted would be better. Also I would have preferred the drip tip to be a standard 510 connection or just non removable.

The intelligent-match system detecting the coil resistance and then limiting the power output works well and will be a great assist for new vapers. I didn’t find it to be a restriction either as the coils perform excellently within their rated wattage range, so there would be no need to override this feature to bump the wattage up further. It’s also great that this feature works with the RBA coil.

Overall, I have loved using the Origin and will continue to do so. If you decide to pick one up it is definitely worth getting the RBA kit too.

Vaperz Cloud Valhalla V2 40mm - Yeah...it's a big 'un

The Vaperz Cloud Valhalla V2 40mm is an overhaul of the original Valhalla 38mm RDA that was released about a year ago. With the extra 2mm on the Vaperz Cloud Valhalla V2, it meant that Vaperz Cloud had much more room to play around with on the inner side of the top cap for a much more directed airflow compared to the original Valhalla.
