Hmmm...that Eleaf Invoke is pretty tempting at that price...does anyone know if it's compatible with ArcticFox?

I'm on my third set of batteries in 3 days, but I'm getting about 24 clock hours 7am one morning until 7am or 8am the next day from 2100mah VTC5's, and a little more from 3100mah VTC6's. I have 30Q's in today. We'll see if I get more from them.

I agree with Eskie. Eleaf is pretty consistent with Arctic Fox compatibility.

Eh, looks like you talked me into it. Which wasn't so much battery life as the fact it works. I mean at that price it's a perfectly good backup. Hopefully it's as reliable as the Picos have been.

Talked me into it as well. :thumb:
I see the Invoke is listed on slowtech for a couple bucks less but I'd rather pay a bit more and not have to wait a month and a half to get it. :p

They have the Pico 75w on sale too, so I ordered one of those while I was at it. Might as well see what all the fuss is about.:D

I recently ordered the Eleaf Invoke for $32.95 (mod only) on sale from www.VapeShop.com. It's still on sale. The center mounted 510 socket will take atomizers up to 27mm without hangover. So far It's my favorite small mod. The invoke also has a preheat setting among many other features. It's smaller than the Pico 75W. Temp control and Wattage mode both work really well and it features a really sharp OLED display.

I really do like the mod's design and form factor. If it came in something other than what's offered now, I'd have gotten one of instead of my Ikonn 220 or Charon 218.

So far my only gripe is that there's no way to reset puff count. You can choose between Puff Count, Puff Time, and Amps to be displayed in the lower right corner, but puffs and time just continue rising and are saved if you pull the battery and replace it.

Mine is at Version 1.0 firmware. I'm confident that users will request a reset function for future revisions. There's already talk about it in the forums.

If that's its only drawback it sounds like a good deal. As I use multiple mods through the day a puff counter is pretty useless for me.

I have never even looked at the puff counter on any of my devices. I don't care how many puffs I take, as long as I am not puffing on a cig, I am good.

I was using puff count along with clock hours to help determine battery life between VTC5, VTC6, and 30Q on the Invoke. It was just a passing fancy while I was checking out vape time on a new mod. Normally, I like to see Amp draw in that spot. Invoke also has the option to put Seconds into that display area as well as Puffs and Amps, which might be a better option for judging battery charge life on a mod. The SubPara section of the Set function lets you choose between the three to place in a field on the display.
