i have been trying out the ICare, but the vape is awfully hot for me; I like things on the cooler side. Flavor is decent, though.
I have an icare and I find the vapor pretty cool definitely not hot. Did you try a different coil, how many airholes do you have open? Its a 1.1 ohm coil at a max of 15watts that should not equate to hot vapor :)

The Mistic Pod Mod 2.0 is a really cool (temperature) vape. I can't taste cool vapor. :( I sure see a lot of vapor coming out, but I can barely taste it.

I rec'd my Mistic about a week ago. Thanks @bnrkwest !!!
I'm using the cherry flavor pod & all I can say is it produces a helluva lot of vapor :thumbs: but the flavor is mehhh! :nah:
I have a friend who lost an arm a few years ago & now wants to quit smoking so I'll be giving her the Mistic since the pods can easily be changed with one hand.

Ok so I have had the Cync Stealth in graphite, the 2.5ml version. It is dang small. Almost... too small for my liking. I am thinking I should have gone with the stick, I am a Provape user and I am used to that form factor.
I liked the fact that it has a sleek look to it, and that it used popular juice companies for its pods... I feel more confident in making my choices, flavor wise.
For comparison's sake I bought Cuttwood Mega Melons in the Cync pod and also at my local vape shop for my Innokin prism t22 tank. The flavor it better in the tank. A lot better. I also got Five Pawns and Beard, and the flavors weren't bad, but tasted a bit weak, kinda like a vape pen. I attribute that to the low power that is used by the sync mod. For a first time vaper, it would be awesome. I will continue to use it, but I have been checking vaping.com and still no restock for the Xolo.

I lost my Cync. I love that little joker, but the stealth one is VERY small.

Won't be up until the weekend according to a post in their FB group. I can't wait so I can order more Black Flag Risen Enriched and try the other 5P stuff and the VF tobacco.
When I stopped using nicotine in January it took about 7 days to test clean.
But I am tempted to buy one of these because I really want to try Black Flag Risen.

I wonder if it would take 7 days to test clean again.
Hmmmmmm...

That sounds like a great experiment to me. If you do be sure to post to your other thread. I think you would test clean sooner myself.

Yea. I could see that happening to my stealth. Might invest in the longer one.

I just ordered several more batteries, including two more Stealths. After about a week without my Cync, I realize now that my preference for gear has really changed. I would much prefer to carry five of these than one of anything else larger (within reason of course).

I decided to experiment with pod mods after reading so much about them. I got the MyJet and the Von Erl My. They work much the same way, and couldn't be simpler to use. The Von Erl is officially not refillable, but there are ways to get around that. Prefilled pods can be had from several well-known companies, including Cuttwood. The MyJet comes with unfilled pods, which you fill with the e-liquid of your choice. Both of them charged in about half an hour.

The tiny form factor is very appealing, and they both work fine. I was especially impressed by the vapor production of the MyJet. I'm taking both of them on vacation, where I can really give them a workout.

Agreed. With the "let's make it bigger and powerful" craze that's been ongoing for the past couple of years, it's refreshing to see some companies focus on effective simplicity.

Can the MyJet be charged with out using a computer usb port?
How bout rewicking?
Vapor looks pretty decent, I kinda like this one.

So what's the general consensus out of these different pod-mods. Which one is favored over the other?
The Mistic 2.0 is the only one I tried but I gave it away to someone who could easily use it one-handed since she lost her left arm. Hopefully she'll get a lot of use out of that mod.

Vaping old IKV RY4 Gold (24 mg/mL) out of a Juul. Nice!

Hey, I didn't realize when I fist posted that video about Juul that mine was a v1. The Juul no longer (ahem, I wonder why) has the "Marlboro pyramid" airflow. Now it's octagonal. There is more airflow now, but I find it to be too much for the Juul liquid. It makes it too harsh for me and scratchy, as opposed to a killer TH. But, I refill mine, so it's no loss.

But I sure would like to find someone with a bunch of old v1 pods.

The Juul seems to be the top dog as far as popular opinion. I haven't tried one because the nic level is just too high for me.

Even though it isn't a closed system, the iCare seems to be gaining traction at the moment. Lot of people talking about it and how it performs well. I ordered one last night to see if it's worth the hype.

My favorite is the Cync, though.

No experience with any of them as yet of course, but after watching some reviews, so far I'm liking the MyJet the most, and the replacement pods and coils aren't that expensive. I never have liked the idea of charging off a pc usb, so I'd probably get the full kit with the pcc which takes an 18650 battery, that seems kinda cool, and convenient. I also like the empty pods for your juices rather than having to hack something, even if it is easy.
Anyway, I'll be watching this thread for more of your experiences with these.
