    The Really Big RY4 Roundup (long)

    That Zippo-shaped bottle is definitely cool. If passer judges the juice as a superb RY4, I may even relent and add it to The Big List. Oh wait, there may not even be a List anymore. (I almost forgot that I'm retiring from my duties and becoming just another poster…)

    Sigelei 75w Temp Control

    Now the Sigelei 75W product page on EcigAvenue indicates 5 in stock. Maybe the inventory tracking software doesn't update the stock number until each order has completed processing.

    Sigelei 75w Temp Control

    I was waiting for a good price, and one came along. EcigAvenue is having a weekend sale today and tomorrow (I'm not sure about Sunday)---10% off with coupon code ILOVEWEEKENDS. Sigelei 75W TC at EcigAvenue When I checked a moment ago, they had 10 units in stock---all black with silver doors...

    Snow Wolf 200w With Temp Control

    Not by the user. From the manual: When device is not in use, the screen will darken after 20 seconds. After 30 seconds the display will turn off and the device will enter standby mode. After 30 minutes in standby mode, device will automatically lock. Press the fire button 5 times in 3 seconds...

    The Really Big RY4 Roundup (long)

    passer, You are the Don Quixote of RY4, tilting at windmills. (I am the Sancho Panza of RY4.) Or perhaps Monty Python and the Holy Grail would be a more apt reference. Hmmm. I get to be Arthur, of course, so which knight would you be? Anyway, if Legend costs $1/ml, in my book it gets...

    The Really Big RY4 Roundup (long)

    Yeah, Pirate RY4 is obviously not for everyone. It's about as eccentric as a Classic Chinese RY4 can get and still be a Classic. But that's how it goes in the Wacky World o' Juices.

    Snow Wolf 200w With Temp Control

    Nope. I'm not that fearless about TC yet. Give me a week or so... My Dovpo TC-50 was $35.84 shipped from gearbest. When I was ready to pull the trigger on a SnowWolf, elev8vape was out of stock, so I missed out on the $88 deal. I paid $101.50 on eBay. Many vendors are selling them for...

    Snow Wolf 200w With Temp Control

    Both TC mods I ordered arrived on consecutive days---the Dovpo TC-50 showed up in the mail yesterday, and the SnowWolf 200 came today. I spent yesterday going through learning curve of how to operate the Dovpo mod and getting set up, building simple 28ga single Ni-200 coils for one RTA and two...

    The Really Big RY4 Roundup (long)

    Oh my. An RY4 that tastes like a 555. Something is rotten with Denmark with that. If you're enjoying the 555-ness of it, however, it's a win for you.

    Snow Wolf 200w With Temp Control

    The iStick 40W TC is $30 and change on a sort of pre-order at FastTech, if you don't mind waiting for 2-3 weeks. It's also in stock at VaporDNA for about $41 shipped (using coupon code VC10 to get $4 off). Very simple TC---you set the temperature, the chip sets the optimal wattage. I'll bet...

    Snow Wolf 200w With Temp Control

    Just got an email from elev8vape announcing that the Snow Wolf 200W is back in stock. Same price as before---$92.99 (only $88.34 with coupon code "5off" and free shipping to boot. Gee, missed it by less than a day. I figured elev8vape wouldn't restock for at least a week or two. Oh well, the 13...

    Snow Wolf 200w With Temp Control

    I'd been holding off on committing to a serious 'temp control' box mod because of the shortcomings and idiosyncrasies of the various TC boxes. Yes, I've had an order in for three weeks at gearbest for a Dovpo TC-50, but only because the cheap price ($36 shipped) would allow me to try out temp...

    Bought a non-TC coil...

    I haven't yet taken the plunge into TC, but this thread enhances my anticipation. I have a Dovpo TC-50 on order from gearbest (lord only knows when that will show up), and I've already got some 28ga and 30ga nickel wire, so I'll be getting my feet wet before too long. Considerable skepticism...

    Cloupor GT VV/VW/TC

    Fasttech is offering the Cloupor GT on what amounts to a pre-order. I've had four Cloupor Minis in daily service for 3-7 months. The low price, magnetic door, and ultra-fast battery swapping were attractive for me---but now that I've put silicone sleeves on them, I charge via USB. No problems...

    Cloupor Mini Mod 30W

    Interesting. Sort of a Maxi-Mini. 95x53x22mm. Larger than an iStick 50W (83x45x23mm), but smaller than my Sigelei 100W Plus (103x59x23mm). The GT has one feature that seems to me part of the inevitable future of temperature control: "Intelligent Joule Recommendation." Apparently, the user can...

    Joyetech Evic VT 60 Watt

    When the early reviews and user posts on the eVic VT were so overwhelmingly positive, I pre-ordered from gearbest. After the bloom was off the rose, so to speak, with certain issues cropping up, I cancelled my pre-order. I've kept up with the thread, however, since I like the form factor...

    The Really Big RY4 Roundup (long)

    I don't find those two DIY RY4 all-in-one flavorings to be similar. TFA RY4 Double has a custom (i.e., "modern") RY4 flavor profile. It seems to be the most popular RY4 flavoring in the DIY realm. FlavourArt RY4 is much closer to a classic (i.e., Chinese) RY4. Mixed at around 10%, I find that...

    The Really Big RY4 Roundup (long)

    Nice, dude. I took advantage of VapeRite's 50% off July 4th sale to order new bottles of VR's three retail RY4s---VR4 (the organic NET version), RY4 (a synthetic tobacco-based custom RY4), and Double RY4 (VR's regular RY4 with double flavor). VR4 was one of my early faves. My first two...

    Cloupor Mini Mod 30W

    Initially I always swapped out batteries on my four Cloupor Minis. Over some months, that began to get old. I never let batteries run down more than 1/3 on any of my regulated boxes, so that meant frequent, sometimes twice daily swaps. When I got silicon sleeves for all four Minis, the battery...

    Regular Atty Drippers (A Dying Breed?)

    I have a vague memory from long ago that perhaps I tried those. Not sure, though. The ones I'm thinking about had wonky 510 connectors that were sized inaccurately. Don't want to suggest that the lousy ones I'm remembering were necessarily the EastMall 510 atties, however.
