Also no sign of the sleeves in South Africa either so I also went out and bought a tank... they seem to be getting thier ceramics right... great flavor and easy and quick to prime... still not as good as a well wicked and built Serpent Mini 25 but for a commercial coil they are winners!
Best RTA ever made is the Serpent Mini 25... all my cCell coil tanks are now on the sidelines...
PS The new Estoc tank form Vaporesso is worth looking at because the ceramic coils are a whole lot better... they wick easily and the flavour is very good.
If you build your own coils then the...
Sorry @Db75 I don't own an iPower... :confused:
Just one thing... the best wicking for the Serpent is Bacon Cotton V2.. just seems to wick perfectly...
Also the SM25 has a little ring on the deck... remove it and leave it off... this improves wicking...
Bummer! Sorry to hear that @Db75! The dreaded airlock issue is related to the cCells and is worse in some tanks. When I tested the ESTOC tank I only used it for a few days and mine was fine with no airlocks. The whole ceramic coil story has been major ups and downs and has ranged from awful to...
VapeCon South Africa 2016 - The Movie!
This is the day vaping went mainstream in South Africa.
Thanks to everyone who was there and to all the vendors for the incredible support. And to the ECIGSSA team that made this possible.
Would also like to give credit and thanks to the amazing...
Yip I read it when it came out and my initial thought was that it was sour grapes because UWell have had so much crap with thier coils... thier coils were so crap I got rid of my Crown tank the same day... and I still think it's sour grapes because a lot of tests were done when the cCell...
@birdfor3 why on earth would I lie? I have been using the Melo 3 Mini's (2ml version) for months and with the 0.6Ω SS cCells they have been marvellous. The 4ml Melo 3 is crap and suffers from an airlock issue.
Here are some pics of my Melo 3's
Yip the Estoc tank is a real step in the right direction... priming the new coils was a piece of cake and the flavour as good as the 0.6Ω SS cCells. I haven't really stress tested them because I have discovered the Serpent Mini 25 and it's the best tank ever... I tested the Estoc for a couple of...
I have a few Melo 3 Mini's with 0.6Ω SS Vaporesso cCell coils and haven't had any issues with heat and nothing but great flavour... However the 0.5Ω cCells are lemons and the 0.9Ω are hit and miss... some batches are fine after careful priming and the rest are lemons!
From what I understand the following tanks will handle the new coils...
Aspire Atlantis
Aspire Atlantis v2
Aspire Atlantis Mega
Aspire Triton
Aspire Triton 2
Eleaf Melo
Eleaf Melo 2
Eleaf iJust 2
Eleaf Melo 3
Eleaf Melo 3 Mini
Vaporesso TARGET
Vaporesso Gemini
Beyond Vape Silo Beast
Tobeco...
Yip a decent drip tip makes all the difference... comfort and good looks!
Yip the airflow of both the standard cCell (in a Melo 3 or Vaporesso Tank) and the new Estoc is very similar... it's good but I would like a little more.
Well I finally have one of these new tanks in my paw...
No where on the box or limited instruction cards does it give an indication of the power to be used on the coil... so lets play at 28 watts for now... so far wicking the coil ready for use and getting up and going was a piece of cake...
Using two Serpent Mini 25's... one single and one dual... best tanks I have ever had... no leaking and outstanding flavour! 24g Nichrome, 7 wraps, 3,5mm - Single - 0.58Ω 30 watts and Dual 0.33Ω at 40 watts.
@muzichead it never lasted very long in my collection either... it was yet another overhyped BF atty for me... I have tried more than a few 22mm BF atties and have yet to find one I like as much as my little 14mm Divo... I have pretty much given up on looking for a different atty for my REO's...
We have a chap here in South Africa that does custom drip tips for us... he is a master craftsman.
He also does REO Fire Buttons.
And I just love his drip tips...
And to stay on topic... my two Serpent Mini 25's!
The Serpent Mini 25 is a fantastic tank... Besides my REO's my go to tank was the Melo 3 Mini with a 0.6Ω SS cCell but the airflow was a dash too restrictive for me but the flavour was great and of course 2ml of juice was a bummer...
I have 2 Serment Mini 25's... one with the single coil deck...
