bout to buy one of these and i want to throw a ibtank on it and was trying to figure out what dimensions i will need for it to sit flush?

also im new to this ibtank stuff been using kangers all my vaping career.. i was wondering what replacement heads do i need for the ibtank and where can i get them?

The Supreme has a diameter of 23mm, the nearest IBtanked diameter looks to be 22mm. There's a slight bevel at the top of the Supreme so it will look good but not quite flush. (There are pictures of other 22mm toppers like Aerotank Mega and Kayfun on Supreme earlier in this thread.)

IBtanks take cartomizers rather than coil heads. They sell Smok or Boge on their site, so I guess that's what they recommend, though you can just get them from your favorite vape supplier.

I love his reviews I had been waiting for it. He makes a good point about the 6V max but I love that it down converts more than I dislike it's 6V max.

Agreed - I see this as a virtue too.

I can see his point but its minimized if you build or use coils at lower ohms. I've got a j-stream (kayfun clone) on mine with a cotton 1.0ohm build and it goes up to 30W with voltage room to spare. The flip side to that criticism is how many mods out there don't properly report voltage and wattage and play silly-bugger with ohms law? At least within its limits the eVic-S is being honest in its display and function. I've got a DNA-30 device so if I really want to lay on the voltage to a high ohm coil, I can move the tank to it. But honestly, I vape between 8 and 15W and haven't really hit my own ceiling (yet) with the eVic-S. YMMV. But I do think the prospective buyer should understand this aspect of the device before purchase.

Agree completely. In Phil's review of the DNAs he points out the downcovert limitations and that was what drove me to look elsewhere and here to this evic-s thread. I've yet found the need to go to 3oms or higher than 18w. Currently chain vaping a fogger v4.3 at 1ohm and 15w and puts more than enough vapor.

So I got both the SS and the black version and I'm kinda disappointed at Joyetech's QC.

SS: very crooked 510 connection and rattling button. Okay, maybe too nit picky, but that button drives me nuts.

Black: The control ring is flaky on mine (same as pbusardo's in his latest video rant as of this time). When turning to the left, it doesn't click into place properly and doesn't register unless you overcompensate the turn. This makes for a very frustrating experience going through the menu.

Anyone else with the black version experiencing this issue?

AFAIK the old evic custom tubes fit but possibly with a little gap. A 18350 battery won't have enough ampere limit to go to 30 watts though, so don't go too high.

EDIT: Oh nvm didn't see your post BNEAT :)

My 18350 battery has more than enough amp limit room on a 0.5ohm coil. My Efest 18350 has a 10.5 amp limit and running a 0.5ohm coil at 25 watts comes in at less than 8 amps so I would be fine.

The tobeco (TOgether BEst COoperation!) tube mod apparently uses the cloned DNA30 chip from the hana mod clones. Didn't see the any button on the pictures though

TOBECO: Doesn't get much more Chinese than that. I work with a lot of overseas clients in my line of work and every time I hear TOBECO (Together Best Cooperation) I can't help but to think of them LOL!

From your comment it sounds like the black version you have doesn't have an issue with a crooked 510 connection; is that true? I would take a faulty control ring over this damn gap/crooked 510 connection any day.

That would be correct. My black one's 510 is pretty straight, especially compared to the stainless version. The crooked 510 you can replace when they become available in quantities. The control ring, however, is part of the head, so for me it's much more of a bigger deal.

Overall I still think it's a great and very accurate device in terms of vape quality. But these things are the sort that bugs the heck outta me so I'm not sure if I'm gonna keep em.

EDIT: I can see how the 510 can still be crooked even when replaced if the base itself is crooked. Sucks that there's finally an "affordable" 30W device that's also accurate in its output, only to have some pretty serious (to some) quality control issues.

It's probably not the replaceable 510 that's crooked, it's probably the connection on the head UNDER the 510 adaptor! I inspected mine (with machine shop inspection equipment) and that's where my problem is. I was tempted to send it back, but I really don't want to deal with the hassle. besides, I got in the habit of snugging up my toppers and backing the top cap up against them to lock them in place. It's a lot easier on the those little 510 threads if you do it that way, and it straightens your tank to pretty much perfection. I started doing that on my first eVic with Protanks to help control the air draw from over squashing the insulators. Plus the resistance stayed more consistent by not over tightening them.


edit: the real reason I got in that habit was to get rid of the damn gap!!

@BNEAT, yeah edited my post when I realized the contact under the 510 was indeed crooked.

I also squashed my protank insulators when I first got it! Frustrating, to say the least. Thing is, if you don't screw it down far enough, the tank wiggles.

The crooked 510 issue I can deal with. But the faulty control wheel on my black one is really pissing me off. For a device that's so dependent on its menu, this is a pretty serious oversight on Joyetech's part. Add to that the fact that if it breaks altogether, since it doesn't round-robin when setting the voltage/wattage, that would render the thing close to useless.

If the control ring is faulty, you should really send it back. The more devices get send back because of this, the more they will do about it (QC). And it's likely it only will get worse in time.

Just FYI my 510 is straight, but I also have to screw up my top cap to close the gap.

Already contacted the store I bought it from. I think all of them have the gap, but not all are crooked.

Should I get the Supreme or Ye Olde Provari/Provari Mini. Also considering Fluid Cyborg DNA 30 Brass & Svoemesto Semovar. I really wanted something that will:

Let me flush mount atomisers
Isn't the size of a lightsaber and can be made small in 18350
Allows 20-30w
Isn't a box mod

Nothing seems to fit what I'm looking for. Floating pin in vv/vw seems ridiculously rare (why?!) and everyone seems to make huge control heads that bulk up the size. I'm guessing the supreme could have been a lot smaller if they didn't have that upload your picture bs.

hey you guys i have a question im trying to figure out why does this device max at 6volts and 30 watts?

i bought these for my IBtank

https://smoktek.3dcartstores.com/Dual-Coil-35mm-Tank-Cartomizer-for-the-45ml-SmokTank_p_1033.html

and it says on the site

"Please don't use the 2.0Ω or 2.5Ω on 3.7v PV's (not enough voltage), they work best on 5 - 7 volt devices!"

since the Ivic maxes at 6 volts will it be enough voltage to push the cartomizer? or is this when the watts come into play since it can go up to 30watts??

what watt would be equivalent to 5-7 volts?

i also bought one of these to test

https://www.ibtanked.com/accessories/cartomizers/smok-3-2-ohm-single-coil-2-hole-standard-detail

what does 3.2ohm need to be vaped at on the evic?

hope you guys understand what im trying to ask...

I have Black version and no ring issue at all. No crookedness either. A couple of tanks don't fit flush but most of mine reasonably do.

They are saying don't use the them on ego type batteries. As far as what is good v or w with them you will have to test. Start at 4v or 9w then test. If too weak then slowly go up till you find what you like. The evic will run those just fine but what tastes good to me may not for you. Start low.

    I'm using the smoktek 3.2 ohm single hole maxed and I'm not getting that much vapor..

    My aero tank works way better on this device than the carto.. But I don't want to give up on the carto since I just got this ibtank..

    Any suggestions?

    Not sure, but maybe because of really high resistance coil? 3.2 ohm means you are getting 11,25 watts at the max 6 volts the evic can deliver. But a 3.2 ohm coil is probably very short and/or and thin resistance wire, so you might not have much surface where the juice can vaporize. That might be the reason why even at 11 watts you're not getting much vapor. Power in watts equals squared voltage divided through resistance in ohm (Watts = Volt^2 / Ohm). You should try with a lower ohm coil.

    EDIT: I didn't know about this but apparently these are meant for high voltage APVs or something?
    "Available in 1.7 or 2.0 ohm low resistance for use with 3.7v, 3.0 ohm for 4-6v and 5.0 ohm for 7+v APV's."
