The mini setup looks about the size of many regular mods nowadays. You can carry it around with the charger connected, then pop out the little mod for Special Duty. Batman does that kind of thing all the time.
Got mine in today as well. I was pretty surprised about how well made it seems. It's got a nice heft to it, not that it's heavy. I just expected a flimsy piece of plastic for the price. The only gripe I have is that you have to remove the coil to fill the tank. Not sure why eLeaf didn't design this with a fill port and stopper. Maybe there's some part of the design that makes it impossible. *shrug*
Performance wise I like it. The draw is good. It's not a MTL device IMO. I mean you can MTL it I guess but it doesn't feel right. It's still on the restricted side of a lung hit. The flavor is good enough. It's not going to wow you by any means but it's acceptable. For people that have been vaping for awhile and have various other setups, this is more of an on-the-go, quick nic fix kind of device. For smokers trying to transition to vaping, I think this type of device is a very good option. Much like the Cync, Juul, etc. It feels closer to actual smoking and it's ridiculously simple to use. My wife and I were out most of the night and I used it a fair amount and the battery is still going. No leaking, no dry hits. I did experience some gurgling initially but that was my own fault. I was attempting to prime the coil with one drop of juice and squeezed the bottle a wee bit hard and put way too much. I'd honestly suggest just filling the tank and inserting the coil without priming. I don't think it's necessary with this coil as long as you let it sit for a couple, three minutes. Once I experienced the gurgling, I turned the device upside down and "spiked" it downward. Seemed to clear the gurgling up and have not experienced it since.
Definitely glad I purchased it. Using some Banana Walnut Stout from N-E-T.com in it. 6mg 50/50.

Looks like my iCare and iCare mini PCC should arrive today. I wasn't looking for the mini till Monday. Hurry up PO and open up.
Thanks for the good tips in this thread already. I will post my thoughts as well.

Yeah, priming it on the fly might be good. Except you can't take unpowered priming hits on this.
I put one drop on and it just sat on top on the coil, lol. Then it popped and went in. From that single drop I got hot spitback and gurgling for awhile.
Cleared up easily tho, and has been vaping perfect since.

Immediately and easily. There might be a way to modify that, since the mouthpiece Is separate from the actuation diaphragm. Close or open the hole in the mouth piece somewhat. There is a pinhole on top of the rubber diaphragm that could be closed maybe??

This is the best price I have seen on iCare coils, but have not ordered from them.
Eleaf icare replacement Coils $3.99
Eleaf icare replacement Coils $3.99
Yea I have no problem ordering from China, but understand the wait time. When I do it is not for something I am in a hurry for. If I like the iCare, won't get my first until Monday, I will order 6 packs of coils, which will get me over the $20 to get ePacket shipping, if I l.like it I will need the coils.

Yeh, when I get my replacement, and know I like it, I just might go there for some extra coils also.
If they last a week, they're worth a buck or so, but dang, seems a bit high for the size of the dinky little things. I'd like to see $5.99 bought stateside.
Yea good price, but pre-order.
Ahh, that's why the good price. I don't think I'd order the mod from China anyway, too hard to get a replacement if it's a dud. I didn't have any problems with DFW.
I think they are trying to sell us on the device, then make there money on the coils.
I am just hoping I can figure a way to rebuild the little things, if nothing else I'll try. - Status
