That looks sweet with the nautilus X on it! How are you liking the nautilus X for MTL?

I quite like it. You don't get too many good MTL devices nowadays I feel. The driptip feels similar to actual cigarettes, which I'm used to. Airflow control works well and stays at what I set it to. However, it is sometimes harder to see the setting in bad lighting conditions.
Overall I like the new UTECH coils - good flavour.
But keep in mind that I come from an eGo ONE and Delta 19 clearomizer which I feel is an unfair comparison.

Edit: I forgot: You can't change the drip tip on the X! Only the black plastic thing on the top. A bit of a disappointment to me, as I would have loved to stick a longer metal one on top.

Pico with the new Cubis Pro. This isn't really the thread I guess for a review, and it's too early for one anyway, but I will say my first thought was Wow this is small and looks great on the Pico. My first thought on the use of the tank (with the Notch coil) was Man why do these flood and spit. Great taste though but it can get hot. It has better airflow than the Cubis, spits less than the Lyche and I prefer the design, smaller size and larger capacity to either of those.

So apparently most Notchcoils spit, especially the ones built into atomiser heads (the Lycee and eGrip 2 is known for this aa well). Hmm.

Seems them Notchcoils need more work.

So yeah. Back to coils shall we, eCig designers.

Yeah I don't get it. I'm using 90VG juice that doesn't spit at all in a Cleito which has huge juice holes. I thought it was getting better throughout the day, but a moment ago, with about a 1/4 of a tank left, it flooded something terrible. Massive gurgling and spit back that didn't feel too good. Going to swap the coil in a minute for the BF .5 coil and give that a shot.

I'd be interested in your thoughts on the Cubis Pro...after trying different coils in it...

(Not even sure that there is a "Cubis PRO" thread on ECF... )

On the plus side, and to get back on track, I'm really loving the Pico's Smart mode. I prefer wattage over TC anyway, and swapping between 4 tanks and not having to adjust my power is great and works like a charm.

I just wish that the display looked like the new wattage mode display and then maybe the wattage mode could look the way it use to where it showed resistance.

The Cubis BF 0.6Ω SS heads work great in my eGo AIO...with NO spitting, gurgling or flooding...

(But...that may be due to them being a "perfect match" to its fixed voltage battery ???)

I haven't seen anything on the voltage being fixed. Where is this listed?

 

[roflwaffles]

Where's a good place to buy just the full black pico?

Rocky mountain has them for $39.00,they have a 25% discount code.

Thank you good sir!

I started a thread for it. I may even try the 1.5 clapton for MTL with some Halo Tribeca.

To stay on topic I have to say the Pico is the first mod that made me stop using all my others and the first mod that I want several of. I don't constantly look for mods anymore. As if my quest is complete haha. If only my quest for tanks could end.

I hear ya. I feel about the same way about mine. I mean, I held from going regulated for a LONG time... waiting for something small enough, feature-filled enough AND tough enough to meet my needs.

The moment I lost my mech (for a while) and started to think *seriously* about reg mods, the Pico appeared and I just *knew* I wanted one.

Will probably get a few more too... you know... as backups. As soon as I get my finances in order anyway lol.

As for now I'll just survive with these two (and yes, funnily enough I got my VTC *after* I got my Pico... and the Pico's still the Daily Driver lol):

I'm at least half way with you there.

I don't want/need many more (so the total will last say... a decade) but I'd like something that doesn't cost $120 plus (DNA, SX etc) and that isn't JoyeTech.

I think I've got enough of them (eleven? ), or at least... almost enough.

Another Pico wouldn't go amiss, and a second VTC as well. Have one RX and two TC100s but the Cuboid, Presa and VapeFoward lines don't interest me.

The problem is finding anything modestly priced that has a feature set even remotely as capable, or interesting, as the JTechs. My Sig and P4Y D2 get NO use anymore. Won't start in on the xCube, even the 100TCs (120w) blow that away.

Likewise my interest in mods seems to be maturing. The pico form factor is irresistable but at the moment I'm vaping a vtc mini and have been for some days. What I like about the vtc mini is the puff counter and timer. I'd dearly like to have a mod that can record more details about my vaping habits. That would be an evolv75 with escribe. I don't need those capabilities all the time. Just enough to give me more control of vaping habits. After that the Pico seems to be the winner because of size. The price doesn't hurt either. My plan is for 5 of each to be in the vapocalypse 10 year stash. I'll have at least 2 different mods in case one of them doesn't hold up as well as expected.

Same here, I'm stocked up on VTC Mini's and Pico's, a couple of RX75's, a few mechs. I wanted to backup my VS DNA200, with another Evolv product, and just ordered a SMY SDNA75. I'ts almost as small as a VTC Mini, from the photos and reviews I've seen. Still not a lot of DNA75 mods out there, and the ones I've seen, were too large for my tastes.

Only my 2nd Fasttech order ever, but even though 101vape has them in stock, I just had a bad customer service issue, and won't be spending money there anymore.

On FT, using the code MAP, got the SMY SDNA75 for $66.00 shipped. Seems to be listed for between $75-100, not too many in US sites. Never owned a SMY mod, hope it's decent.

 

[gtrtech]

Daniel DJLSB Vapes was involved with it,so should be good.

Yes, I watched his "first look" video, not sure he is going to do a full review since he was involved with setting up the firmware and write the manual. PBusardo has it in his review queue, but hasn't put up a new video in a week, must be traveling and signing autographs. Been happy with my VS DNA200, so I figured a DNA75 would be just as reliable. Hopefully the SMY hardware is up to par. I prefer 18650 small mods.

 

[Jumpin' In...]

Wow. That SMY looks like a nice mod! I'll have to keep an eye out for that one. I want at least one non-Joyetech mod on my stash.

hey everyone i wanna ask how to downgrade firmware on pico? because i can't see the volt in my pico now
