Pretty regularly no fire when pushing the button
My buddy is having same thibg

I had this happen once last night but not at all before or since. I pushed the button and it just didn't fire I even looked at my finger to make sure it was on the button correctly. Pushed it again right after and it worked fine.

Anybody notice a misfire every so often?

So far, Ive had a few instances where I will fire the mod but nothing happens. I let off the button and press again and all is cloudy. Not sure if this is what you are referring to. I actually noticed this (but not as often) in the kboxes. I kept thinking my tank wasnt seating properly but all was proper. No complaints really just commenting. Also, the new coils like to spit at me initially, then they do their business. It's really when I first hit the mod after resting it. I thought it was from me priming the coil more than necessary before use but it happens quite often. Again, not bad I just hate to have that first pop of juice in my mouth when I start to use it.

I just got mine today... I'm pretty satisfied with it just as a back up. And it was cheap. Airflow lacks compared to the subtank. One thing that really bothers me is there is about a full second lag between hitting the fire button and when it actually starts to fire. I REALLY don't like that. It's a small gripe but enough to keep me from maining it. And the USB port isnt square with the hole on the mod cover so it's hard to get the plug in. Which I don't want to charge batteries that way anyway so it doesn't matter much, but it's ugly. Solid device though. Wish it was a little bigger, I wish it was the size of the subtank plus/ Kbox combo, I love the aesthetics of it but miss the capacity. Too small for my hands to be comfortable as well, probably better for girls.
 
Anyone else preorder from My Vape Deal and received yours yet?
I guess they are having problems getting them shipped out on time so to make things right they are shipping the kits with a 5pk of OCC coils. At least that's what their Facebook says...

I have not received my preorder from My Vape Deal. The $5 saved is definitely not worth the aggravation, but oh well. Hopefully they'll ship soon.

I think I found this (.... Kickers') video while clicking around at YT.
I'm going to try more finesse with my next wick and see if I can get results closer to this.



That's for the old RBA. None of that is necessary on the new RBA mini plus that comes with the Subox. And in reality, it's not really necessary for the old RBA unless it's critical that you vape at 30W+ off of a RBA deck that was never designed to handle it.

Hello guys , I was out for a couple of days due to violations but am I the only one who thinks the airflow on the the new subtank is worse than the original mini , everything else is OK , the RBAs performs alright and I love the battery because it is smaller than my istick .

i've had the new AFC for a while now, and i've compared them a bunch, they feel about the same to me. really doesn't matter how much air flow you have if you have a restrictive coil setup, once both AFCs are wide open the limit of the coil's base/pin kicks in anyways

So how many watts do you vape your "new" RBA at?

Well mine lasted a week...
Using the RBA today worked fine for the first part of the day and then for some reason it just heated up and without even using it and got "Temp High". I let it cool down and tried a fresh battery and same thing, didn't even fire it once had to pull the battery it got way to hot. let it cool again and put a battery back in and clicked 5 for "Off"... same.

I'll never learn ordering from China, I can already tell what Gearbest will say. "Please send it back we will test it and send a new unit"
