Happy Holidays to all -
And thanks to those that assisted on my purchases.
Thought a quick opinion would be welcome now that I have 3 Unregulated devices, and 3 new tanks systems to play with

The Players
:


  • ipv V2 original -50 W max
    • Bought the IPV2 as a pre-sale for $80.00 when it first came out
    • Device has its known Quirks. Some att'ys are just not friendly with this device
    • So Far all 3 tanks above work fine
    • Used it 50W with many of my Atomizers as well - only the plume was a bugger


  • Yihi SX Mini - 60 Watt Max for now
    • Best device I have ever used all around and Most $$$ at 189.00
    • Great for tanks - really nice for .2 RBA builds
    • Right now helping my Billow achieve incredible flavors off Banana DeLeche
    • Love the power mode for those lower ohm drippers - really brigs out the flavor


  • IPV Mini - 30 watt max
    • A bit disappointed in this device - but at the $55.00 Price... still ok
    • Same 30 watts with the Atlantis on the Yihi is noticeably a better quality vape
    • Not feeling That I can depend on how it is reading my attys/tanks

The Toppers
  • Lemo Drop: $35.00 - using the coil and cotton it came built with - 1.15 ohm
    • Though I would gamble on what came pre installed
    • Least Airy of the 3 at wide open, but more than a standard KFL
    • Great flavor - Lemonem never tasted this good !


  • Billow - $35.00 - .06 OHM dual coil 26 G
    • Heard of some leaking issues - so far not a drop - perhaps those videos helped on Wicking recommendations !
    • Really nice Air at Fully open - not as much as the Atlantis but the vape is more dense
    • No issues building on a single chimney set up - just tuck on those wicks !
    • 2 weeks on same wick using High VG juice and not one leak, or dry Hit
    • Normally I do not like 5 ML tanks, but this one is not overly large


  • Atlantis - .55 Ohm although Mini often reads this at .4
    • Really impressed for a Carto on steroids
    • Haven't tried to rebuild with Cotton yet
    • Have had 1 bad coil so far - normally lasts 7 days for me at 30-35 W (35 on the Yihi)
    • Live the open draw as neebded -or the option to go small for MTL hits

So That's about it :vapor:

I might buy another Yihi or wait to what new devices 2015 brings.
I still love dripping, but all 3 tanks allow for Lung Hits, great flavor and are easy to build.
Not to detailed but I will be happy to offer any additional information, although there are plenty of great threads to find

All 3 devices are using either VTC4 or Samsung.
I really haven't paid attention to Battery longevity as USB on demand is always available for me
