    That's been out for quite a while

    I knew it had been out for a while but they sent the aegis mini kit and the nova with Alpha tank in the same box for me to review so I'm going to do a review on it.

    I forgot to mention that the person from Geekvape asked me to make a video after I discovered that some of my rtas wouldn't screw down all the way on the mini and he is going to send it to their engineers.

    They asked me to make a video too when I had problems with my Legend. They replied with a fix, but made no mention of the fact I had nothing but boxers on in the video :)

    Good to know!:thumbs:
    I have been having issues also. For the last week, week and a half (not sure if it was before or after they started this 30% sale), ECX won't let me log in. I just get stuck in a loop, that tells me they have upgraded their systems, and I need to (re)activate my account (I swear I did that already back in July). I can look around (as a guest) all I want... I just can't log into my account. I had a pretty healthy wish list there, and I am going to be annoyed if it is gone.

    I left a detailed message online; but no reply yet. I'll update if I hear anything.:confused:

    I logged into ECX after I saw that people were having problems. I was able to log in with no issues. Weird, huh? :unsure:

    I meant to ask you about that. I tried a bunch of my RTAs and they all sit flush. Let us know what they say

    It is a bigger mod(dual battery). I have seen it for sale with the Cerberus tank and the Alpha tank. They sent me the Alpha tank. It takes higher wattage coils and is more of a cloud tank.
    I have enough dual battery mods for us all. Plus a handful of 26650/21700s. The mini makes a great running around mod. With a mtl tank, it’s perfect for a day out on the boat or heading to a festival too.
    Is the Alpha what came with the Aegis 100’s recently? My SIL already “borrowed” the tank , which is fair...he’s subohm only, 75-90 watts mostly. Whatever it was, he liked enough to ask for the second tank.

    I tried three different geekvape zeus tanks, an augvape intake, an ammit mtl rda, and a siren v1. None of them would screw down flush. You'd think that at least the ones made by geekvape would.

    I'm not sure if the Alpha came with the 100 or not. I know this one has mesh coils. The one preinstalled is like 75-90 watt. It also came with another one that is like 40-60 or something.

    Hey kids this waiting for BCFs Sale has caused me to add 4 more flavorings in my cart. Hope it happens SOON!

    Anyway does anyone have a recommendation for a Milk type flavor. Not a heavy cream but a regular milk flavor. I see that TFA had Dairy Milk but wanted to know what you “guys” use. Thanks.
    I do use the TFA Dairy Milk

    The ammit 25 rta, siren 2, obs crius 2, Serpent, doggy, and ares all fit flush. Yours must have been an anomaly. That in itself is surprising.
    The tanks were still in the box unused when he took them, so no telling which one they were. I usually top with an rta. Rarely do I run low build/high watts any more, so I save the tanks for the “boys”.

    FYI nicotine river will not be having any Black Friday or cyber Monday sale. There next sitewide sale will be mid Dec.
    email broke my heart, I’ve been waiting to place a big order. I guess I’ll have to wait longer.

    I logged into ECX after I saw that people were having problems. I was able to log in with no issues. Weird, huh? :unsure:
    Follow-up for my ECX issue (stuck in the re-activate loop):

    I received a reply to my online plea for help. Evidently, when ECX did their latest system upgrades, they used the opportunity to "purge" inactive (non-buying) accounts. I was informed I will have to create a new one. That means, the nearly $100 of product that was on my wish list, is now gone. Too bad for ECX. This 30% off sale was exactly what I was waiting for to pull the trigger. Now, I have neither the time, nor the inclination, to try to rebuild it. :(

    I appreciate that they gave me a definitive reply; and didn't just try to ignore my problem away. At least I know.:thumb:

    I wonder why? It seems like a big opportunity lost.
    Likely; less "sale" competition. Mid-December will place them after all the Thanksgiving sales and before all the Christmas sales. With less competition, they can offer less of a discount, and still get a bigger slice of the "pie."

    Then if they purged accounts, they should have stopped sending emails to those customers. Makes me angry, glad I just went with NR. I opened a ticket but haven't heard back. There were other issues on their site which may have been related to the purged accounts.
