I got one of these and think it pretty cool/fancy

will charge All of Them (auto detect)
•AAA to D cells
•10440 to 32650 cells
it displays BACKWARDS Timer (countdown)
tells you how much time IS LEFT till full charge
.5A OR 1.0A at the push of a button
and, AND slip a 18650 in and it becomes a portable power (USB OUT)
so you can charge whatever (ecig, cell phone, mp3 player, etc. )
nice for power outages, camping, travel

VC2 Plus MASTER

jus sayin'

I'm jealous, nice choice!

I really like it. It's a bit of a pain to build, not hard just different. The flavor is outstanding since it's a fat short chimney. The drip tip works pretty good for keeping it cool & tons of air.

Hmmm. Gotta take another look at the deck. Not surprised it's got the short-flavorful thing going for it.

I just discovered I can't get my top off either. Eventually I'll get off my behind & get the rubber grippy thingy.

Got it off but forgot to come back here & say so. Didn't do anything other than turn the cap. Funny cause the 1st & 2nd time I tried it wouldn't budge.

Finally got mine off as well. Used a jar opener gripper thingy.

pulled off the melo, and threw on the cubis with ss coil.......surprisingly the SS temp control is working fairly well on the ss cubis coils...apparently those coils like this pico...cause they haven't worked well on any other TC mod yet.

I have a 2-bay nitecore and love it.

I have a 2 bay 1 year old & a few month old digital 4 bay. Both work great, the digital one is nice as it has the display.

The TC on the Pico is working as well as the DNA200 in my VT200, I'm astonished at it's consistency.
I know the chipset is the same as the Vapeforward stout and Lite - it appears to be much improved over the previous Istick TC device I had.

Yeah, mine has the display and I really like it.

Request, someone please post a photo of a Pico with a 22mm rda on top and show the space between the rda and the battery cap. I use a 22mm x 12mm silicone anti slip ring to control leaking for pocket carry and am curious about how much clearance there might be.

Go back don't remember how many pages back. But I posted a pic of my white Pico with a Wotofo Sapor RDA.

Just tried to put the battery cap on the Pico with a vape band on the Melo 2 which is 22mm - it ain't happening.

Thanks, I found your photo. The space is very small. Did you check to see if the slip ring would compress enough to slide into the space, even part way? Regardless, my solution might still work if I make sure the air supply is located away from the battery cap. I use an SV rda clone, partly because it has one airsupply on one side of the barrel (good for MTL). The slip ring can be pulled down clear of the air hole on cne side without changing the location on the other side so I might still be able to keep that solution with the Pico.

...must....resist....don't....need....more...mods.....

This thing looks very cute and very pocket friendly. How's the weight? Does it compare favorably to the TC40?

This is really not gonna help you
Just held both, the Pico might be just a tad heavier but not much

 

[Garnoch]

Yeah I agree, it almost feels the same as the 40.

I hope this thing holds up because after 9 days with it, I still can't stop using it or even looking at it. I swap around my devices quite a bit because none are perfect, but for me, the Pico is perfect - looks, size, weight, feel, options. I haven't used any of my other devices since getting the Pico, which is a first.

Even with a pocket full of change, it's still practically a freak accident. I'd hate to be tasked with reproducing it in the laboratory.

I agree completely, I can barely picture the confluence of bad luck needed to hard short with just a modest amount of change etc. in a pocket... maybe if is lies horizontally.

However... the worst failure mode is so damn spectacular. Would you risk it?

These are state-of-the-art battery chemistry, with every bit of energy they can pack in.
Most fails will just be the sizzle... but there's a lot of "boom" stuffed in there.

 

[DebiK]

These silicone sleeves are cheap and work just fine. They don't take up much more room than the bare battery. Why risk it?

I am just learning about the Pico and I really want the pink! RMV doesn't have any pink right now so price wise I'm not sure where to look!
Also, does anyone use a GS air tank on their Pico?

 

[DebiK]

I think RMV said they would have more in on Monday. If you want to order a Pink Kit right now, 101 Vape has them for $37.99.
