That's freaking GREAT!!!!! :thumbs:

If someone made anything like that Uno, regulated for folks like me, I'd jump all over it. I tried to embrace the unregs, many moons ago, and it failed me miserably. I need control, I guess.

LOVE the look, and they've already got the orange down pat (no pun intended). Now if they just added an aquamarine, Pokes & me would be some happy kampers.

I was thinking that a small decal (the window kind) would look great on the orange, or maybe someone will make a wrap and we could wrap just part of it!

Just a small update on UNO. I had vaped the second tank down to pretty low & noticed that hits were getting a bit warm & dry so I filled it again. Never even Noticed the the Yellow LED at all but was about 6 hits in that tank when I saw the Red led. She was still hitting nice and strong on the hit before it finally blinked Red & would no longer fire about 15-20 hits in. Not bad considering I did not charge it out of the box. Guess they ship prototypes with a full charge. I'm used to internals coming w/ a 60% holding charge only.

UNO has a 10 second cutoff, over-current/overheat protection, overcharge protection but no voltage or wattage adjustment. There is absolutely no way it is an unregulated device though. It must have bucking/boost or at least boost circuitry installed to either provide a constant output wattage or voltage to the atty as the vape was consistent from first vape to last except for those few hotter/dryer ones I spoke of as the 2nd tank got low. I even Skyped Bruce @ 2am to ask him what the preset wattage/voltage scheme was.

He told me again it was unregulated & vape would drop off as battery died. He obviously doesn't know how this unit works & while he may use it over lunch break, I don't think its his ADV. He did tell me that resistance range of UNO is 0.4 - 1.5 ohm. My best guess is it is just a regulated voltage but Got to figure out a way to test output voltage on a TA AIO coil while it is in use to try it under different resistances to see if it is wattage based but at a loss how to perform test without disassembly.

After it is off charge I'll have a better idea if it is bucking voltage on those first few vapes or not but am purposely leaving it on charge for a number of hours to test this.

I'll be interested to hear more, but regardless, it's awesome looking device (IMO). How is the finish (I'm a "scratcher" by nature)?

I'd call it a soda or powder blasted aluminum anodized. May be wrong, but that what it looks like to me. I like it. Reluctant to do a scratch test. smooth aluminum, no defined grain.

When do these come out?

I've got several "unregulated" mods that I don't notice a voltage drop like I would if they were truly unregulated.

He told me 3 weeks - month to store. He Said Madvapes & VaporBeast would stock, which had me scratching my head a bit.

Been thinking about it & I really don't like Orange as a rule & of course thats what Bruce sent. I'm never gonna use it, so if anyone is interested in a nib sc Piff, PM me.

Edit: Pokes was first to respond, She likes orange, you snooze.....

Grazie! Sounds like it would have some decent durability. Don't (a) scratch test it, or (b) send it anywhere near me. :blush:

Timing is everything!

No worries — it's all good. I will probably end up buying the Fugly one when it is released and maybe the black for when I need to be stealthy depending on price. I have three of the v1 Nuggets and they all have held up well. Well made for a little guy.

Artery does do nice work. Their construction is always impeccable with excellent paint finish but they tend to be really heavy zinc. Their boards are ok & their TC is decent. Menus are a a bit rudimentary & they are not very efficient. If left on, they will drain battery.

Loved Summa but it was like carrying brick around compared to a Nebox. Summas stayed home & Nebox went to the job site.

Mix80 was a great regular 510 TC 18650 mod by them.
