Agreed, that's the beauty of this hobby, there's something for everyone. I love squonking, I've been known to oversquonk but since I moved mostly to top air atty's I haven't had any accidents, prior to that was a little messy at times for sure.

I'm an accident waiting to happen on a good day. You can probably imagine what my Reo ended up looking like. :blush:

We'll see if it becomes clone fodder. That's the only way I can enter the field.

I really like the Basic and I think for what it's designed for, lacking the VV wil be minimal largely due to the ability to regulate with the coil resistance.

It will only hold a 14mm atty and that will limit the ability to do heavy power draining cloud chucking.

I just put in an order for one.

Id like to know what you think of the Basic after you've used it aikanae, as its really the only side by side I like the look of. Wonder if a aspire atty could be used?

Most of the others are designed around a big 22 mm tank, but for me, a side by side is a stealth design which shouldn't use a huge tank.

I'm wanting a pocket-able side by side designed around the mini nautilus or smaller. But I'm about to order another istick30 because nothing interests me.

Wait ten more minutes for the next round of 589 mods that come out (every ten or so). ;)

It needs to be a 16 mm atty so I don't think the Nauty mini would work. Now a mini cerotank w/bvc coils...

Isn't cerOtank 18mm? The basic comes with a new GS air2 with O.8 coil and the kanger pt3 mini also fits. I think kanger has new dual coils that are sub ohm now too. That will empty out both tanks very quickly. I happen to like pt3 mini's and they are cheap. I can see carting around 4 tanks preloaded for quick changes. I'm adhd about eliquid flavors so I'd enjoy changing tastes a lot. Without regulation, batteries last longer too. That's my only hesitation is that I prefer using my own battery. I'm not crazy about disposable mods.

Rather than 3Ow istick, maybe consider a Cool Fire IV? I think some places are having close out sales since the plus is replacing them and the colors .... wow. I ended up with 3 beause of the colors and I wanted all of them. Great finish, not slippery, no fingerprints. Solid and accurate. There's also the Jedi from King at Vape NW that's a good basic. I think it's $25. That does have replaceable battery. I can think of a few more that compete favorably with isticks. Kangside is producing good stuff right now too. There's an itty bitty 25w that's way too cute and <$2O. Lots and lots of choices.

There is a mini cero. It is the same size as an evod, or pt mini. The 16 mm tank will fit in the basic, that is why they gave the adapter (I think).

Also VapeNW has the mini Jedi for 21.99 without a coupon. I have one, I like it. Not my favorite, not as sturdy as the CF IV but for a single, inexpensive 18650 mod I think it does the trick

Thanks for the review. I actually have one of these coming on a slow boat from China and am still undecided as to which tank I will be using. You made me feel a bit more excited about the purchase!
That Bellus is a perfect fit... just sayin...

A UK Envy 17 owner stated a mini Nautilus will fit if inserted from the side. And some mixed reviews about battery life and unlockable buttons.

To bad we have to wait on the boat on these, as I'll have forgotten I ordered by the time it arrives.

I just noticed the Envy 22 is available at Vapor Bank and they have shipped quickly for me in the past.

Ok, I have read this thread at least 3 times. I am an avowed sXs vaper. I have now killed 2 of the r80 " folding telescoping pipe mod" thingies. There is a wire between the battery compartment and the atty. No bueno in the long run. Loved the "form factor", and it took almost a year to show the weaknesses. For the price I paid, could be worse.

Now, I have ordered a Phantus Mini clone, because I could not find a microstick clone that supported a 23mm atty. We shall see what I receive.

I will admit to being intrigued by the "Fountain V2"

HA...I read this thread multiple times also. I ordered the Kato and Fountain v2 today....
I love the idea of squonking, but never owned any type of bottom feed attys or devices.

Picked up the Kato, but if I fall in love with the Fountain I may have to try the Envy22 too.
Thanks for all the pictures everybody.
