All Things about the Eleaf iCare & iCare Mini

[dale1962]

Like the Icare's,but noticed on top of the stem's that the threading on my two anyways is stripped(smooth) at 2 small spots not threaded all the way around they still tighten fairly easily but is this how they are made or do I have some defected one's...

The two unthreaded spots allow air to escape while tightening, then the oring seals it.

It seems to be how they're made

I must say that I am enjoying my ICare more since I found some of my older 18 mg. juice and loaded it into the ICare. I normally vape 12 mgs, sometimes 6mg. I was getting no throat hit with 12 mg. in the ICare. 18 mg. seems to be working much better for me.

Yeah I figured that since all my units were the same but thought I would ask,thanks for quick reply...and jingles I vape either 6mg in subohm or 18mg in out and about evods etc...and tried 6mg first in Icare and definately didn't do it for me either but quickly changed to 18mg and was perfect

I have been experimenting with the air hole right above the tank viewing area.

I tap it with my finger or thumb, depending on how I'm holding the device.
I find I can control my vaping experience by doing so.

Haven't really figured out yet just HOW I want my vaping experience controlled.
But I'm getting closer and closer to achieving Nirvana.

It's too airy for me. I get much better flavor from my eleaf basics. I'm not excited about the shape of the tip. It's wide. I don't like big tips. It does stay in the bra well. Thats a plus.

I did not think of this...........

But, that's great!!!!!

Oh yea. That's what the ol' egos had over the isticks. Now these.

I wonder if there's a way to rig on up for hands free vaping? I can see potential for that. Attach to helmet for biking/active sports?

I am going to a watch party for the World Series tonight in Cleveland, Ohio. The stadium has a "no ecigs allowed" policy. I am thinking of sticking an ICare in my bra and seeing if it can make it through security. I won't be using the Icare in the stands or anything, maybe in the bathroom. Wish me luck!

Carry it in your purse and it looks like a lighter to a scanner.

Ahh, good idea..

I'll tell ya, This isn't my all day PV but it's sure nice to take when I don't need something bigger.

My regular istick+naughty is waaay to bulky for my pocket, even an old ego is too much- compared to this.

I think I need something in between also. Maybe some 400mah egos w/ naughty minis??

I learned that if I need to pull out all the innards to refill, then theres no advantage to top fill.

Update: My ICare made it into the stadium last night. I did keep it in my purse in an outer pocket with my keys. They used one of those wand things to search the main part of my purse. Yes, I did sneak a few puffs in the ladies room! It seems totally unfair that smokers can bring their cigs and lighters into the venue. Of course they have leave the stadium to be able to smoke, but if vapors can't even bring an ecig on their person, we don't even have the option to "go out for a vape"! Anyways an ICare was perfect for me last night!

These are the ultimate stealth device. Good point.

bought one.

been using it 5 days. it auto-fired on me twice. i had to unscrew and take out the shaft while touching the "do not touch!" switch . what causes that?

anyway it was not enough to deter me. just bought 6 more. 3 minis and 3 regulars. and 5 more packs of coils. think my other mods are going to take the back set to these.

Yesterday was a bad iCare day for me. One of them started leaking at the base again. This time I just retired it! Then the usb plug was all wet when I pulled it out of the second one . Not sure if it came from the first one though. So the second one is on my "dare ya to do it again" list!
So I broke out a new one. SOS!!!! I just can't get along with these factory coils. Spitting gobs of juice into my mouth. So I went on a rebuilding spree. First built one with cheesecloth. A little tight on draw for DTL but workable. Then did one with gauze, just didn't like that one at all. Decided to try JOC again. NAILED IT!!!!! Great DTL draw, nice vapor and sizzle without pumping juice into my mouth! So I went ahead and did five more before shaky hands and dropping things got the better of me. If they all work well enough I should be good for a few weeks. Starting to get used to building these has me thinking that I should revisit vertical builds in my PT2s.

Think this is the first I've heard of these auto-firing?

It happened after I Inhaled off the device. It just kept firing, like the switch was stuck or something. It happened again yesterday. Not today yet, and Ive used it all day
