The Zenith just landed at My Vapor Store today! I ordered a stainless one along with some coils! My shinyitis is bad right now!
Ordered a Black one, thanks Jingles. I almost never order early stuff anymore before reviews, but I'm willing to take the risk on this one. MVS is quick as usual- looks like it already shipped (or at least label created)
Thank you for the information! Been waiting a couple months to order this tank. I ordered the stainless also, but I do hope coil costs are cheaper once it gets out there more, 12.50 a little steep. I just got 1 pack of the 1.6 for now to make sure I like everything. Now the wait to get it begins. Hopefully it sneaks in before Christmas! I have a wismec p80 silver ready to go for this thing!
I'm thinking the coils will be based on the T20S coils ( only shortened to fit the Zenith) if so they should be good. The 0.8 ohm coils are very long lasting and give great flavour at the 18 watts provided by the battery included in the T20S kit. These coils are also used in the ez watt kit.
Still no video from Phil regarding the Zenith . Strange as retailers already have stock over here in the UK.
He said on his last video that there wouldn't be another video from him until after the new year. My zenith shipped today! For those who are wondering, according to a guy from innokin on Reddit, all US zenith tanks are the 4 ml.
Yeah true but there is a QR code on the box that's supposed to link to an instructional video by Phil.
I am wondering if some of these tanks are hitting the market earlier than expected and he just has not up loaded the videos yet.
Coils looks like bvc-nautilus type? Wish they were SS for TC.
Is there some rational reason why new MTL drop in coils are all kanthal? Or so it sometimes seems? Is it like, if you MTL, of course you don't want to do TC or what? I would love a TRUE MTL (by that I mean 1.6 coils or above) tank with pretty restricted airflow that did SS coils. Does the resistance not change enough or something.... Do they think that everyone using MTL coils doesn't want to do TC? Or is there some rational reason that those tiny vertical coils can't be TC coils? Just curious....

We can directly pester Phil about that now
. I reckon it's always about the money tho.
Ok, I got mine today and I've been using it for a few hours. I can't believe there aren't any reviews out there that I can find yet. Am I first? Ok, way too early to review, but I'll just jot down some thoughts.
-Overall, it seems pretty great. Only using the preinstalled 1.6 coil so far, but looking forward to trying the .8 too.
-It doesn't quite feel like 24/25mm. It does fit on an istick 30 with only ever so slight overhang. I mean, it's thick, but just not as much as I assumed. It alllmost fit on my original pico, but just not quite.
-It did have a little oil smell to it. I just dove right in, but I kinda wish I would have given it a cleaning first. Just fyi.
-The airflow: It's pretty smooth, and I like it. But I'm a little surprised that you can't lock it down quite as tight as say, the Nautilus 2. All the holes are the same size, instead of gradually getting smaller. I like a really tight airflow, where I can get a little suction; like the old clearo days. This isn't quite that. But smooth, and nice. And I can sort of lock it off completely- but it's hard to find that right in between that I like. I think most will be happy though.
-There is some slight whistle on certain airflow ring settings :/ Not terrible, but just slight. Could be a case by case basis, but it's there for me, and a bit annoying.
-Flavor seems great. But going side by side with my Nautilus X with the 1.8 U coils...I kinda prefer my X for flavor though. Could be my juice, but just my initial thoughts.
-Coils seem great too, no gurgling or spitting or anything. And I've tried some chain vaping and it's going well. (using 50/50) with zero dry hits. It's hitting like a champ. I just started lowering my nic, but I can feel where the throat hit would be if I were using a 12mg.
-Filling system is really great. I think that's the standout feature here. Closing the coil off when doing it does seems to prevent any sort of flooding.
-Drip tip is nice. That's so minor, but it's sort of not too....hard to find a good MTL tip that comes with a tank.
-Looks: Better than in the picture I posted before. I have it in black and I thought that lettering for the name on it was kinda tacky, but it looks much less so in person. I don't really care much about tank appearance, but just know it looks better in person.
Very good so far! I'm going to do some testing on the mild whistling and see if I can fix it. Also going to tinker with the airflow and see if I can find my sweet spot. Otherwise, I think you all are gonna like it. Feel free to ask any questions. I can take pics if needed, but I'm lazy.
