That's why Aspire is selling the CF mods along side it. I think it's going to be huge. I cloud machine that you don't have to constantly drip or maintain? Sign me up!

We can agree to disagree, time will tell I suppose.

That CF is just a bit off the wall to me. It's basically a fixed voltage device (at 4.2v) This seems just a weird thing to offer in these days of high power APVs with screens, temp control and wattage of 150+. I suppose there may be some people that buy it to use with other drippers and toppers, but I still don't really understand who it's aimed at. Maybe I will once I see a few more reviews and some testing...

I'm definitely thinking about getting one of these for when I'm at work. I work in a restaurant kitchen and I hate having to drip when I want to vape at work because I don't really get breaks. I just step outside for a couple minutes but if I get an order I have to go back inside so I don't have a whole lot of time to mess around with dripping. I think this would be perfect for a situation like mine. Also so I don't have to drip and drive because thats definitely not safe.

Mine is on the way. I am hoping that some of the hype is really lived up to

I don't know if this is the same for everyone but the airier the draw the less flavor I get but I have chronic issues with vapers Tounge so I suspect it might just be me

My only problem with this is quality of coils.

I used to love the nautilus mini, but after spend 15€ for a 5 pack coils and only 2 were good ... Let's say I moved to rda's and I couldn't be more happier. Plus dripping is kinda like when I smoked, I needed to pull my lighter and light up the sucker, with dripping it's almost the same ritual, drop about 10 drops puff till the wick is dry then put the mod in my pocket again.

Only way I go back to tanks was if the coils lasted at least 15 days ( at that price range).

Other thing is, I find people who drip tend to change flavors a lot, and even with a 2ml tank, you would be stuck with that flavor for a while.

Reo, dude - I'd say get a reo in your situation.

Not to take away from the atlantis (I think it's a great idea and hope it's a solid option), but for a dripper who's just time/convenience challenged, a reo would solve your issues and then some.

I agree with you but I have had good luck with the BVC coils I will be going back to my Magma with a. 6 parallel build I get killed flavor from this build and can change flavors often like I prefer.

I should have mine on Saturday. I can't believe I pulled the trigger on it without seeing a lot more reviews, but I just tried high-wattage for the first time about a week ago (the day my IPV2s came in the mail - I don't think I'd ever gone above 15 watts before), and I was instantly a convert. I'd never experienced a "warm" vape before... it was kind of a shock. I then went on to overdose on nicotine for the first time since my first day with my first device :facepalm:. Looks like I'll have to start stocking my favorite flavors in two nic levels.

Quick question - I moved on to building my own coils pretty quickly and gave my clearomizers away... how does one know when it's time to change a coil? I never really had to deal with that...

How can this stock coil or any stock coil be "better" than a finely tuned and honed built coil wicked with KGD...It is an impossibility and no flavor is not subjective:laugh: in this context.

Anyone that says this coil is better than a built coil does not know how to build a coil.

Okay okay, target placed firmly on back---fire away:evil:

ZDo you guys think running them at max 15 watt would be ok for this tank?

I guess that depends on what you mean by "ok". Would it be safe? Yes. I'm sure it would be.

I can't speak from experience, but I would guess that this tank would seriously underperform at 15 watts. I'm not sure what the 15 watt experience would be like, but I do know that plenty of reviewers have said that the tank really shines at 35-45 watts.

definitely not 30W even seems to weak for me to push this coil sufficiently. what amazes me is how it wicks so well and never gurgle or leaks

It's not better but it's very surprising for a pre built coil and I guess the point is lazy builders or non builders can use it

How can this...

Be better than this...

To experience the first, you just need (lots of) money. To experience the second, you need lots of money, lots more money for mods, lots of mechanical skill, LOTS of technical knowledge in the genre, lots of time to assemble it, lots more time for maintenance, lots of friends to help you, etc.

But at the end of the day, what's the difference, really? Artistry? Pride in having built it yourself? Ok, but some folks simply aren't interested in those things. Some people prefer to be connoisseurs, not creators. That's fine.

The market is there, and it's being filled. I think that, beyond performance or specs or anything else tangible, just the very idea of 'turn key' clouds from an Atlantis sitting on a CF sub-ohm battery is going to create a lot of .... hurt in the cloud chasing sub culture. Now it's available to anyone with money.

Is that a good thing? IMAO, more options is always better, so yes!
