How you liking the Bellus? I had a Bellus for a few months and really enjoyed it. Just got the Zephyrus V2 a few days ago. Enjoy that too, but the not a huge fan of the build deck.
I enjoy the full bodied flavor of the Bellus, but I hate the leak-leak-leak.
I can build it to not leak, but then it wants to dry hit.
The Aromamizer is SOOO much easier to build, and gives very little away in flavor. The Bellus is on a stand, and pretty much staying there. Sad!

What is it about the Aromamizer that causes it to use a lot of j(0_0)se?

Note 5!!!
The Air Flow of the Aromamizer is so much more open, that it borders on a cloud chaser. More open draw and air, means it will use more Liquid as well.
As in everything else, there is always a trade off. ;)Knife

I've thought about trying the Aromamizer but not a fan of the bands on it. I'm a single coil guy too. Not sure off hand if the Aromamizer can be single coil built.

She goes.... BOOM! (sounds kinda like an 1851 mountain howitzer, if you can imagine that)
Back in the day (1987-1993) I used to sleep about 100 ft. from firing howitzers. Would lift me right off my cot. We were so damn tired, I'd only hear the first one...

I got that way with in comming mortars. It's amazing what you can grow accustomed to. We only woke up if they started getting really close [emoji14]

Sent with one hand, the other is busy vaping.

I think any electronic device with an electronic switch (vs. mechanical switch) will have some sort of parasitic drain on standby. I think, even if it's off unless the device is locked out but I could be wrong about that. Anyway, it should take years to drain a battery...Ive read the battery self discharges faster than the E switch drain.

yes, it is turned on. It's never been off since I bought it. :)

No, no different with an atty attached to it. (the numbers I posted are from a second test/monitoring..first test had the atty attached and showed even worse numbers-voltage was down to 4.01v from full charge and Radius was sitting for at least a day without any use on a fresh charge) also, I was thinking the battery might be the issue...nope, for the second test I used a different battery.

Is this like a thing with the Radius??

I have noticed battery life to be very poor but I just assumed thats just the way it is.

For example a fully charged 25r in a DNA40 box will last me 2 days. The Radius with the same tank and same settings struggles to get through my shift.

I bought it used so don't know if I have a warranty.

Not normal. My first Radius had issues with the battery meter and I was only getting about 1/2 a day from a full charge. My replacement is getting about a day and a half now with the same tank and settings.

The website is very confusing.

I'm not very tech orientated but I'm not ......ed either and I can't figger that site out to save my life.

I found a way to leave a message. Hopefully that person will be able to help or find the person who can
Use this page: ProVape Inc. : in the header up top select the dropdown: Submit A Request: that will create a ticket in their system and is the only way to request an RGA to have a unit inspected for service. Good Luck!
