    The Reuleaux by JayBo Designs

    All I have seen so far is anecdotal, but the subject is discussed at length at the Evolve Forum here. Lots of references to "plenty" of these devices failing, but I am yet to read or hear about a failure first hand from someone who experienced it for themselves. Plus, Wismec supposedly has made...

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    I have checked very closely and there is/was no protector on this. I actually scratched the screen trying to find one. But no worries, it's protected now. The film I put on actually lays perfectly flush with the shell and kinda masks the scratches.

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    @KenD Yes, I read that comment and spent some time yesterday looking very closely and even used a seal-pick to see if there was an edge or something. Nope. It's not terribly scratched, but more than I expected on a brand new device. The box was shrink-wrapped but anybody and his dog can do that...

    No film cover on this one. I checked that right away. Bummer.

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    A quick Q if if I may... Is the actual display screen behind a lens of some sort, or is there nothing, like the dna device? I have some screen shield left over from my Note 4 and might stick some on regardless. It came out of the box with more scratches on the screen than I like, but it seems...

    The Reuleaux by JayBo Designs

    I am yet to actually buy this device but I am reading as much as I can in advance, so cheers to all for the tips and the discussion. Still lots more study to go but I have decided if the one I get has the ribbon issue I am going to try either gluing the ribbon together on the inside of the...

    Or it might just be beat up or the pin seal, such as it is, may be damaged. etc tec. Like I said, there are others here better equipped to help you.

    I'm certainly no expert on these mods, but the goo is plainly visible in that pic. Many thing will clean that baby up, ranging from something in a desert topping to something that may explode, but search back in this thread a wee bit, maybe 4-6 pages I guess(?) and you will see this subject...

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    Oh ya. I have already seen a steep spike in my fluid intake, but it's so much cleaner and fresher this way it's hard to slow down. BTW, I did wind up locking the res because the way I vape appears to cause this thing issues, if set down for a few minutes then hammered again. Once locked at room...

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    Turns out mine had 1.07 on it already, so I went ahead and done the deed. I think it went fine... I show 1.08 if I click the button six million times so I reckon she's ready to rumble. Put the now cold STM on after reducing the watts to 75 and making sure all the settings were good and fired it...

    Choices for good TC capable RTAs

    Geez I missed all the fun in here. (Note to self to check notifications) Anyway, I got the STM V1 and after disassembling, cleaning, then building and loading it up my first impression is/was: "Is that all I need to do? I'm ok to vape this thing? I haven't missed something somewhere? Alrighty...

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    A mystery indeed. Back in the day a designer would copyright a design and could provide detailed schematics etc, but today for various reasons we do not see that sort of thing much if at all any more. Most of what we do know comes from talented amateurs or experts in similar fields and by the...

    Yes, I also carry multiple cells around (safely) and will continue to do so, but my interest is solely in knowing that using the usb occasionally to charge will not result in global Armageddon. Such usage would most likely be less like Russian Roulette and more like a calculated and acceptable...

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    It's frustrating not having the mod right here in my sweaty mitts so I can analyse things a bit closer, but mine physically landed in Richmond at 1:30am which means there is a better than even chance I will have it today. They only need to stop once to water and grain the mules between here and...

    New Forum Software?!! (Theme)

    Talk about a dolt. I discovered what the "problem" was with my fonts. Me. I use NoScript and while ECF was mostly white-listed, NoScript was still blocking an "object" needed to run the fonts here. I allowed the object and everything is sunshine and roses now. Boy, I shoulda thought of that ages...

    BTW, no I have not tried the Genesis style nor used ss mesh wick, but I have all but the Genie from years ago before better wicks came along. I will be sure to research this further, so cheers bud.

    Yes, this is a very good turn of events as I get my rx within hours, Friday latest if CP doesn't work it over. (everything crossed) It sure would be great to have TCR on board from the get-go. Maybe some udder fixes too? Please do update us Tpat et al.

    Explain Temperature Control

    Well, if my experience with kanthal is any guide even tiny changes in the juices I used affected performance a great deal. In fact (again with kanthal so it may very well not apply) experience revealed an ever changing vaping environment with any number is minuscule variables that were almost...

    WISMEC Reuleaux RX200 TC

    I like sweet and very strong citrus vapes. Kanthal builds with Rayon wicks got dirty fast, even at low power and I was building coils at an alarming rate. The Ti on TC vapes a lot cleaner with much, much less carbon build-up, so the flavour hangs around way longer. At least according to my...
