New guy!

Hello All,
Just got my eVic from VaporAlley, loving it! Got a couple Kanger T3's and ViVi Nova 3?'s? I think they're the 3.0 version.
All are working well, Just updating my iMac to Mountain Lion as I head the MVR doesn't like to work on older versions. No big deal, should've done it already anyways.

Now, just to get a few more batteries and a charger for this and my MonkeyBoxx VV2 I have coming as well! Couldn't turn down the $100 price! Snagged the one with Betty Boop on the back. I'm a big hot rodder / old aviation junkie so what's better than that?

vaping some Pink Spot juice, some are great, some are good, but not for me. Can't beat the personalized messages on the receipts! Love it!

Congrats! I'm hoping that mine will be waiting for me in the mailroom when I get home! Did the batteries come charged in the kit and was yours branded 'VaporAlley' or did it arrive plain?

'Pink Spot' juice?? LOL

 

[AlanZ]

Haha I thought you would know the name? That's where I was recommended by a friend. Pink Spot Vapor.

It was about 50% or so. Been charging and vaping on and off, it'd be better probably to fully charge it, but I don't mind.

Sounds like it's "full speed ahead". Congrats and welcome!

Welcome to ECF. Sounds like your off to a great start.

It didn't arrive and I ordered it on last Wednesday from vaporkings.com. Hope it comes tomorrow.

What combination of atomizer head / voltage are you liking so far? Did you upgrade the firmware yet?

 

[Amirite]

My eVic arrived today! Upgraded to 1.2 immediately, which took a whole 3 mins, including the download of MVR from Joyetech's website. I had familiarized myself with the menu system by watching pbusardo's video (Great explanation of the settings if you have not seen it)

One word: WINNING! The eVic is amazing! I'm finally pulling good vapor after wrestling with my eGO-T for the last two weeks. With the eGo, I was never sure if it was the juice, the battery, the cartomizer, the orientation of the wicks or a combination of all of the above that was giving me fits. Total crapshoot. The eVic's MVR VW setting brings out the flavor of the juice nicely by heating it slowly. TH starts at around 5 seconds (very satisfying) and The nerd in me enjoys watching it automatically adjusts the wattage to a recommended setting based on the ohm rating of the coil.

Thanks for the review. I have a friend new to vaping and she is looking at an eVic. I have been Provari for over a year so I was unable to tell her anything. I will send this to her
Oh and congrats for finding a winning vape - that struggle is long and very frustrating not to mention expensive. . trying to find the one that works for you.
Vape on my friend!!

The eVic is ridiculously simple. Not only does it produce great vapor but it helps you visually understand the effect of changing voltage (or wattage) and the ohm rating of your coil (which isn't always what the manufacturer says it is) on that vapor. When you're ready to advance to higher wattages, you still have the 18650 batteries / charger to use in your next mod. Try doing that with an eGo. And just sometimes, you don't want to be seen with something that looks it was purchased at a headshop. This should be everyone's first device.

Totally loving the eVic. Software update was quick, and the new software automatically detects and adapts Wattage output to new atomizer/cartomizers.
Made my best friend jealous at the bar last night. I could almost fill an empty beer pitcher on about a 6 second drag. So nice and smooth.

Kanger T3's and the ViViNova V3.0's were awesome as well!

Also received my Monkeyboxx VV2 today. Love how it's a bit slimmer than the standard VV. Workmanship is spot on, but I thought the voltage regulator screw would be countersunk? Doesn't effect operation though, adjusted just fine I believe.

Now just gotta get myself a set of batteries and charger here soon to test it out.

Bought a Joyetech 510 atomizer from MyVaporStore, along with what was supposed to be a 306, but I think they fudged up as my Joyetech was right, but the other one looks like a cartomizer. Just like what you would screw on top of a analog copycat ecig. Weird. Gonna give em a yell tomorrow.

Any input on eVic protected batteries and or batts for my Monkeyboxx is greatly appreciated! Vape on!

On the Kanger's I keep it low for some reason? Just shy or 4.0 I think? Last night was Lager night, best friend was buying. After awhile it all kinda bled together. Haha
ViVi Nova's I'm running 4.5 or a couple tenths higher.

 

[Amirite]

Switched from a Viva Nova to a Boge F16 and loving the eVic even more. Battery life is EXCELLENT. I started with a fully charged 18650 yesterday and there is still 70% left. Currently have it set to 8W, using an 1.8ohm cartomizer, 2-3 pph for 6-8 seconds in duration.
