Looks like more $'s will be spent on my vaping "hobby"...:shock:

The last time you posted "get one, you WILL like it"...it was referring to the Wismec Presa TC.

I bought one...LOVED it...then ran across a GREAT sale and bought more...replacing (and PIFing) my Defender-50W, KBOX Mini and VTC Mini in my Rotation.

..

lol, yepper and the Pico probably has same 'chip' inside (as presaTC) (75w/bypass/SS/TCR etc)
there is just 'something' cute and compact about pico
wide, thin, short - the device fits in my hand oh so sweet...
I complained about never "hittin" the fire button, just in the wrong spot for my grip
so if I am just vapin' away I HAVE TO LOOK to see, ♪ when I get lost in my mod... ♫
but I am getting my big club hand used to it...


:thumbs:

now lets talk about the TC60 :D

Hey, puf! Any thoughts between the 2ml & 4ml Melo3?

not really...

used the M III mini since it came with pico
I have Melo2 (came with TC60) so, very close and why I have ECR coils
if they weren't so close to same (M2 & M3) I would not of got the Pico kit

I am havin a love affair with my eGo ONE tanks and
my SubTank mini tanks with bellcap
then add in the Venti (on the TC60) , the Melo tanks are a distant back-up plan...
used them, like them - but they can't knock off my other tanks

Got the Kanger Topbox mini kit this afternoon. I didn't care about the kit... I only wanted the mod. Much smaller than I thought it would be, which is a good thing as I wanted it for going out. Here's a picture. I'm sure most have seen it before. My picture taking skills with my phone aren't the best. The flash makes the picture too bright.

I went ahead and set the tank up with one of the supplied coils--Clapton. It's performing well, but not as good as the coils I'm building--not that I am the greatest coil builder. It's really hard to see which coil is which. I actually took a picture and zoomed in to differentiate the coils. I don't know if i'll buy replacements once these are gone, but I may in case I get in a pinch. (the syringe is for filling tanks:thumbs:)

How do you like the Athena? I ordered one from eBay seller szsailing on March 13, didn't ship until April 6, arrived in the states April 11. No tracking since then. I'm kinda antsy and hoping it's worth the wait.

Hello, people.:) Hope your night/morning is going well. Update: I am really enjoying this kanger Clapton pre-built coil. It took a tank or 2, but the flavor is really impressive. It's not going to match the coils I build with cotton bacon, but it's still really nice. The Kanger 75w tc is a really nice mod for da price. If I get 6 months out of it, my $$ has been well spent. Be well and blessed.:)

The Athena 35W is ****ing awsome in april 2016 ;) An Istick form factor without power cord. The cutoff voltage at 3.5 V is too ecologically.
Starts blinking and protects your batteries. The Al Gore fans out there like it :)

The Athena eNVy 22 is very nice. I'm running mine with a UD Bellus... fits perfect!

I have an Athena 35 and never used it. The small buttons and the fact that there is no lock feature. No spring 510 !! Another looser design . Also the battery is a pain to change. The wife likes the Balrog 75 better. She even likes her target 75 better. The only think going for the Athena is the Istick size .

I came SO close to buying one, but something stopped me... :sneaky:
I stuck with the eleaf/joye/wismec gear (& very pleased that I did)

that Balrog looks interesting -BUT- I don't want the tank and that's the only way I've seen it sold/packaged :rolleyes:

:blink:

A number of the Chinese sites sell it alone. Thinking of buying one because of the strap. I need something that won't fall in the water when kayaking.
