I'm a zebra fan. Like it far better than the red and black.

I'm looking at the CF 18650 too. Love the original but I hear that it eats up battery life. Probably something else that was rushed to production.

When you say "original", do you mean the CFIV (internal), or the first run of the 18650 version? The internal wasn't that bad, for a 2200. I haven't done too much research on the 18650 yet though.

I should have known you'd be a zebra fan too. ;)

The original is the internal. Love it, although one is on the dying end now. [emoji26]

A couple of reviewers, including Todd, have commented on the battery life of the 18650. It seems to use a battery much quicker than other, similar, single 18650 mods.

Not sure, haven't researched it thoroughly, just heard it in passing in a few vlogs.

DAYMIT! Thanks.

(sigh)

Welp - one more cheapie Provi? I guess I've got almost two months to watch and decide...

Or, at a whopping $18, maybe a black OlaX Hero. Who knows.

Shopping is fun. :D

@Katdarling didn't we see something about that around the same time that the Smoant was being pre-released?
There was a teaser pic, then nothing...

Meanwhile, I've made my iStick Basic really good... tucked in a Kayfun Mini 2.1 ES built to .82 into it, and the flavor is awesome...

I'm a bit at odds with all the reports on the Rolo at this point. Mine is perfection, and might encourage a second purchase (black & white zebra, natch). I'm going to hang out with those thoughts for awhile, as yes, we ARE in the honeymoon stage.

This might look pretty sweet on it, n'est pas?

(A few more days, DPL, then vee discuss.) ;)

The CF4 with an 18650 still does appeal to me. I cannot imagine why Todd or anyone else would say it uses more batt power than any other 18650 mod. That just doesn't compute for me. The battery stress/depletion is dependent on the usage.

@Katdarling didn't we see something about that around the same time that the Smoant was being pre-released?

We did, then it went "poof"! I know nothing more than we did when that first was in sight.

RB nj
Artery Summa
Hits a lot on my wishlist but no rba and I refuse to collect more coils. http://www.madvapes.com/artery
Mad Vapes has a one day only code 4DAD 10% off today.

They are still finalizing the RBA - by testing multiple prototype designs.

At a list of $22.95/5pk of coils, can't blame you on that one. Wish they would put a DNA75 in it.

I have High hopes for Summa as Egrip II lacks capacity & Cupti appears to have coil issues. Seems like a winner from reviews so far. Got one on the way.

Cupti seems to have serious coil flooding on the stock coils according to most reviewers so far.

I'm with you, aik. My stockpile is BVC & Nauti only. All others need not apply.

I can't rebuild nauty coils and couldn't afford the lifetime supply so I had to expand my options.

Sent from my LGLS992 using Tapatalk

We too. But the coils we save are just those two.

Kat's rebuilt both versions, but I have not (yet). Plenty of KF stuff working, if failure continues.

I've been anti big government my entire life, but I never envisioned such a direct hit on common sense & freedom.

This whole thing bites wad.

I hoped manufacturers heard us and would come up with some mods built for longevity in the final month but...

What will be torture is seeing new devices with the disclaimer " can't ship to USA addresses".
