18 ravens left for alpha, 10 replacements ravens and thats it folk, these head to the main area for the general public, i hope you guys are happy with the ravens and we apologize for the months and months of delay but we rather keep our promise then deliver a unfinished product and cause any further fiascos, we love the new raven and I hope you all do too. its a great alternative that produces tons of vapor and taste and another excellent product to add to your arsenal.

so snatch them up because the price will change as well when they go to main.

update, 16 raven tanks and 8 replacements left

Raven

Okay, now we know. The carto has a clear tube all the way to the coil. Fill the tank, put the carto back into position, drip a couple of drops straight down the tube and you're ready to go.

A nice, smooth, easy draw and I'm loving it. Only been using it for about 15 minutes, but the Raven Rocks!!!!

Gotta go grade papers....


On my second tank now. 1st tank was 60vg/40pg homebrew and really had no problems with the 2.6-8Ω on a spinner at just below the 3.8v mark. Switched to a thinner juice on my 2nd tank and began getting a lot of gurgle and found I needed to spin up to about midway between the 3.8v and 4.3v marking to stop it. Not a major problem once fittings cleaned and it settled in. I do prefer the lower voltage though.

This is a very nice rig – ya’ better git it while the gitt’ns good.

No… I didn’t get all the papers graded…. Boogar!

Got mine filled with Boston Cream Pie, sitting atop my twist, threaded sleeve snug against the Raven. Definitely a short break in period. The first 20 to 30 hits had an undertone of oil or plastic, but it's tasting great now. I'm getting a lot of vapor production, even with my 3 second hits, slightly more than the Phoenix Reborns I just received. Only the tiniest bit of seepage onto my battery post. I don't notice any sort of airiness to mine; I'm using the sleeve for aesthetic purposes only. I hope I don't jinx it by saying so, but I think this is the best device I used to date. I have to give it a slight step above the Phoenix. I especially like how slim the tank is. I am in no way a fan of big honking tanks. Now if only I could find a Budgie drip tip made out of acrylic, or rubber, or silicon. When they get cold, the Budgies impart a metallic taste to the vape something fierce. Oh, and I also hate big honking drip tips too, lol.

I'm still going to try the Kanger glass tank, but in a way I'm hoping it doesn't perform as well as the Raven because I'm so partial towards the Phoenix devices. They've been very good to me. On the other hand, the Kanger glass tank is the coolest looking tank ever made. The Ravens look a bit outdated. In the end though I'll take a quality vape over a cool appearance.

Speaking of 3 second hits, I've noticed whenever anyone does a review for a device they demonstrate the vapor production by taking this immense 20 second hit and exhaling a huge plume of vapor. Do people really vape like that? I vape the same way I smoked. Anything longer just feels/seems unnatural.

I do vape like that regularly! 10 to 20 second hits. Kind of how I smoked. Long deep drags. If I did that with an analog now, I would be on the floor coughing a lung out.

We have moved from an eGo style to the SVD. Using a delicate flavor @ 50/50 best at lower voltage flavor profile wise. Third tank will be an old favorite at 20/80 that likes medium to higher voltage. I have no seeping at all at this point. Flavor is really nice, this juice is Cinnamon Toast and I am getting all the subtleness with no problem. Reading 2.7ohm at 3.8volts just a bit of new equipment taste still. It is very easy to use and I think that will be a huge added selling point. No finding the right equipment to work with your Carto tank. I like that it is mated to something. Will make a great selling point to new vapers.

I'm a long-pull vaper myself, and I was never an regular smoker.

Krash, I like the words you are speakin' man! And can I ask where you got your Innokin SVD? I was torn between that and the eVic, but would like to eventually get the SVD as well. That, or a cheap mechanical....

Thanks.

It was a trade from a beta tester. I highly recommend it over the eVic.

No complainants on the raven except I want purple.

I got a small purple one from the first go round ;);) and its still sitting here. I like the look of the tank caps better than any other ones I have. Any idea what size tubes fit the original bigger tanks? The one I got from the first run is broke and I cant find anything here that fits it...
