Well Hey There CA You Got It! Fantastic! I know You have been Pretty excited about getting it and Now You Have it In Hand! Awesome! Who cares if it doesn't match! I'm like Lynn some of My setups look Weird or Out of Place but they Work & Taste that's the Most Important Thang!

Ah, You have an X-Cube Too! I have a number of Different smok Box Mods. Nothing organised about them at all just Great Deals I had to Jump on! Some of the Best Deals I've got have Been on the smok Box Mods! Recently got a couple XPro BT50's. Didn't need em but for the price ($10 each) I just had to try em! They Connect to your Smart Phone with Bluetooth to adjust and Monitor! Just Crazy! But they are a Little Smaller fit the Pocket Nice and 50 watts can handle some Great tanks & Coils! And they Have a Great Selection of Unique Colors! The Pro Series have some Great Options available!!

When You get back and Wrap that thing make sure you share it with us!

Have a Great Weekend!

Skully {:{}
I plan to go wrap shopping for reals this week, but things got a little crazy on me this past 7 days! I still need to figure out exactly what I want. Light pink? Sparkle? Candy pink? So many choices. :D Now that I have the white one I will choose a color for the gray one that will look good with the pretty pearly white doors of the white iStick so I can switch the doors. Who knew being matchy matchy could be soooo much work? :D

Thank you Skullman and KelogGes and of course Aldenf for all the information on the Ni CCELL coils! I am going to try it again. Before I went to my interview, I stopped at a local Vapeshop and got a single Kanthal CCELL and vaped it in wattage mode, I now know what the fuss is about, great clean flavor, well great flavor after half a tank, the first part has a funky taste of the ceramic taste, just like the cotton coils do. But it is a great flavor producer.
Now I have the experienced the flavor of the Clapton coil and now the Kanthal CCELL, I am going to clean the tank and try the Ni200 CCELL and see if I can get it to work for me. And I will test both of my mods to see which one will work. KelogGes, I noticed you only mentioned temperature, I have not tried my Istick40 in TC Mode, I am assuming you do not have to adjust your wattage and temp! On my Cuboid you have to do both for the Nickel coils! Hmm, might have to try that one first, just for the ease of use!

Thank you again all! :thumbs:

I have 2 Evic mini's with the pearl white and one with grey. I can interchange the colors with the battery covers. It's about time they came out with more white. I think the white mods are pretty cool looking. :laugh:
I think the white ones look nice, too. I never would have thought I would like white gear but I really do, especially when you can swap the doors! :)

Howdy again MCVM!

When you switch to TC Mode in the iTICK 4Ow

THE display changes and locks in a constant 40 watts of power and stays there; and display shows larger temperature numbers you can adjust up and down: the coil temperature is veriable controlled when you push the up/down buttons which rise or lowers the coil temp and vapor production going through the ceramic coil which control's vapor production, and the coil ohms is shown above the 40 watts as a reference; you control the vape and taste in degrees of temperature only in TC Mode

it takes a bit of getting used to because its different then watts and voltage modes

Thank you KelogGes,
Now I do not need to find my instructions! :thumb: My first mod is/was the Istick TC40 and I used the Aspire Nautilus and Nautilus mini, used it for a month but it wasn't helping the dang cravings of the Nic, so I kept increasing the
nicotine! :nah: That is when I decided to sub ohm (lowered the Nic) and I bought the new mod and tank and wanted to give the CCELLs a try! I wished I would have done a lot more research and Joined this Forum and not made so many newbie mistakes! So far very helpful people in here helping out the newbies!:thumbs:

I promise, I will change the coils (back to the TC Ni200 CCELL) around today! But I am enjoying the Kanthal CCELL, I changed to a different flavor just to see how long the old flavor (I went from a Cinnamon roll flavor to a fruit flavor, not a good combo) would still be present, about 5 to 10 puffs and I could not taste the old flavor! SWEET!! :thumb: I only have the one tank so far and changing flavors was a bummer, first the cleaning the tank then the coil, and then still having the prior flavor mixed in with the new flavor.:(
I'll try both mods and tell you if I failed and or which mod was easier to use!

Thank you all again!

I wish someone would turn off the wind machine... little windy around here! :eek::confused::shock::blink:

I'm all for a nice breeze, but when the lights are flickering and power wires are jumping off poles and landing on stuff, it's time to turn off wind machine! o_O:rolleyes::yawn::cry::ohmy:

To all that have helped me with my lack of knowledge of TC with CCell Ni200 coils, or any TC coils for that
matter! ;)
1) With the Istick TC40, and my Aspire Triton2 tank, I was achieving a good vape at 480-520 F with the airflow 1/4 open to half open. Istick is easier, because you only have the temp and airflow to adjust. You were right Skullman the Istick did run a bit hotter to achieve what the Cubiod was producing. Must be the chip inside?
2) With the Cuboid and Triton2 tank I was getting a good vape and flavor at again 460 F and a wattage setting of 32 watts. Airflow was at about half way to 3/4 open. better cloud and flavor.
This time around NO Muted bland flavor I (and Skullman) got last time (3 tanks tried) and this time was with Max VG?
I still am going to experiment further, with both, need a little more time to get the same expirience I am getting with the Kanthal CCELL's. So far the winner for me is the Kanthal's!

And thanks again to all that helped me, and for everybody else that had to read my gibberish!!! :lol:

Has anybody noticed you have to take a longer draw/hit/toke/puff (what do you call it? Vape that's it!!) using TC mode or is it just me??? :rolleyes:

Rocketman, Don't believe it, it's all LynnNC's fault! Just kidding Lynn! ;)
I wouldn't say pushing them, but I am definitely liking the Kanthal, still working on the Ni200's.

I haven't tried them in TC mode, only VW.
