Seems like this model isn't a favorite with many. After seeing Phil's review I decided to get one. I just can't get into wood and may still get an Evod also or just mod one of my dna boxes. I was pleasantly surprised with the Revolution and a small mod to the juice bottle made it a true squonker without tipping.



A7, oval coil, and hemp wick.



Two squonks and ready to vape.

+1 for the battery issue. If not for that I'd be suggesting THIS. To everyone who wants to get into vaping... Slap in a bottle, pop on an atty or carto, squeeze and vape... Oh well time to start construction lol

That's actually already available...at a reasonable price...with the Vmod!

Well, reasonable... I guess so. Still a little pricy to send someone to straight away. May scare them off

I mean, I might pay the money if I can't satisfactorily make my own, but can you imagine some one saying to you when you were a new vaper, " yea it'll just be 80 dollars, plus juice..."

Wait for their sales and get one. Sometimes they have a half off sale.

Very nice! What stopped me from embracing the Revolution V2 was the proprietary non-removable battery. Otherwise...I liked the idea of them.

Actually that is what attracted me. Since I am an avid RCer, I use a lot of rectangular Lipo batteries and no problem to solder in a new better one when the original fails. Also unlike the Groove it can be vaped as it is charging. So far it has worked well.

I've been thinking of trying a Revolution, but have no experience with bottom feeders. Does the A7 have to be modified to work on it? Are there any other RBA/RDA's I should look at for this? I'm using a AGA-T on a K100 now so am used to SS and Kanthal. Would love to try micro coils.

Many thanks for any info :2cool:

The A7 does not need to be modified. Some just prefer to drill a side air hole. The Revolution will not handle sub ohm coils.

Thank you! I was not planning to go sub-ohm with this. Thinking it would be a great micro coil platform at about 1.5 ohm or a bit higher and a great first BF. I am also into RC using lipo's. If you have seen the battery, any info would be appreciated.

I used a piece of tubing from and ink reservoir of a ballpoint pen. Tried some teflon tubing but it wouldn't stay glued.

Do you use CA for gluing this BJ43?

I'd not be concerned about the non-changeable battery. It should last about a year with regular use. Not bad for about $35.

I recently read some new to me data I thought I'd pass on. Don't charge on your computer USB port --- it can be harder on the battery and lessen it's life span. It has something to do about uneven outflow of power and changes when the 'puter goes in sleep modes.

I do think the case can be popped open.....at least early versions could be. Do not recommend trying until it becomes necessary.

I know I'm late on posting to this thread but I received my Revolution last week and really like it. Granted it's not like my Vmod but ti works. When the battery finally dies on me, I know I'll have no problem replacing it. Now to see what type of rba's I can use on it. Right now I have an A7, a Vision Eternity and the inside works of a Terminator tank I'm going to try.

Please let us know how the Vision Eternity works for you if you try it. I have one and love it, just haven't checked it out for BF'ing yet.

I tried it today and it worked ok, just a little hard on the draw for me, still going to work on it some more.
Don't do like I did though, I made a bone head goof. Inside the 510 connector on the mod, there is a tiny, tiny rubber tube. I guess it feeds up inside what ever device you put on it. But dumb a__ me lost mine today. So now I've got to find something that will fit. The ink holder for a fountain pen is too big, the straw off of a wd40 can is too big. I'm going to see if maybe I can find a piece of wire covering that will work. I know I will not be able to find anything common to fix it. Really ticks me off I did that too.
