    You could try emailing them and see if they will ship what's in stock.

    I emailed them after a week it didn't ship, they told me they was waiting for stock and should have it soon, guess I could email them again, but it is the Kumo I really want though, the Riva looks cool, and look forward to it, but get more excited about trying a new tank though.

    My Lethal arrived today as well. QP threw in a nice kanthal alien that I think I'll use. Put on the bubble glass and played with the af inserts; I'll be trying out the baffle one with small holes first; much quieter and smoother than the 2 hole or no insert. Nice restriction and hopefully not too restricted once the coil/wick are installed. Of course I already have a 510 dt picked out for it.

    Don't tell them..but I actually like the looks of this pink :cry:

    Tim Wiseman's pic from his review shows the colour much better:

    I've gotten all mine from Vapourium, and they've now got the mod only in stock

    I really need to try that insert out for longer than 5 minutes. It's definitely the smoothest of the options.

    I do have my brown z80 in rotation but boxed the other two. With so many review samples coming in it’s hard to decide what to use. This year has been especially busy.
    Think I can help with your problem. You can always send that brown Z80 down yonder. That way you'll be at least freed up on one mod :p

    thats the same air flow restricter that I’m going to use first. I haven’t built it yet. I like to watch a couple of build videos first usually by DJLS and maybe Mikes Vapes just someone who vapes similar to me.

    does the coil have any info like id, type (Clapton etc…) and ohms? I just got a bag full of new kind of fancy coils to try out. But maybe I should start out with something similar to what they sent you. I didn’t get any coils in the bag. I never use to use included coils because I was vaping strictly stainless steel but lately I’ve been venturing into Ni80. I honestly can’t tell the difference. Can you? Neither has any after taste like kanthal does for me.

    St St and Ni 80 don't contain Carbon..so they don't leave a after taste. Kanthal do contain a little bit of Carbon, and can be tasted. I used to like that taste...then later I got so used to it, I didn't even notice it anymore.
    When I started using Ni 80 I immediately picked up on it...this time round it bugs me.

    Vaporesso contacted me when I was only 6-8 months into my vaping career to be a Power User to review their new items. I didn’t think I was very qualified to make opinions or comparison’s at the time so I declined.

    Maybe I should contact them again though. I wasn’t crazy that they had forms to fill out that were very detailed including comparing to other vape products. Plus they had deadlines of like only a week after delivery to return the feedback.

    The other downside besides deadlines were the items themselves. I didn’t want to have to use stick and pen type mods. I was enjoying vaping high powered low ohms at the time! I didn’t want to put down my 200 watt Revenger X and sub ohm tanks :lol:!

    It wouldn’t be worth it to me, to jump through all those hoops.

    SM is very easy, and lots of variety to try. I just do the review, send them a link, and send them a link if what I want to try next.
    Freemax just sends what they feel like.
    But I don’t have any paperwork to fill out / the first time, FM sent me guidelines for what they wanted me to include in the review. It was all stuff I was going to mention anyway.
    And I do try to get them done in a week, but nobody seems too bothered when I’m a bit late.

    Morning shinies ;)

    Well I have 7 coils to rebuild, but don't feel like it. Last weekend I had the tail up and did them in no time.

    I can only handle rebuilding 1 or maybe 2 decks at a time. I can do a rewicking marathon of 5 or 6, but I usually stuff up at least 1!

    Early thoughts on the Lethal...
    Installed the included coil; was stated as a 3mm but was at least a 3.4mm. Resistance was 4.6 so not the size and resistance I prefer. Wick was lightly thinned and cut to just above the deck floor. Used the baffle af insert which I love and won't try the other 2 hole insert. AF was smooth and so quiet but bit too warm and restricted for my tastes. Decided to rebuild with my usual 2.5mm .32 resistance. Unfortunately though the af wasn't leaking out there was juice I had to blow out of the base. 2.5mm build I wicked a bit tighter, just a fluff no thinning, and cut the tails to the deck floor. Seems to be working better. Overall a very good rta but doubt I'll order another one. Time will tell whether it stays in rotation.
    Pros
    AF with baffle insert is smooth and quiet
    Flavor is very good
    Dead easy build but suspect the wick has to be near perfect; maybe not a purse or pocket carry. If you are okay with rayon I would recommend using that.
    For myself this rta shines better with creams, bakery, dessert juices. Fruits show up but don't shine like the creams, cheesecake, or yogurt.
    Top fill works well

    Cons
    Fruits don't shine (personal preference)
    Have to hold top of mod to close af or else you'll be unscrewing the tank from the mod.
    Can't disassemble the base to clean leaking af juice.
    I do like the rta but doubt I'll order anymore bottom af rtas. I prefer rtas I can throw in my purse without worrying about possible leaking. I also don't need to remove them from the mod if I'm not using it repeatedly throughout the day. Take my thoughts with a grain of salt if you prefer bottom af since I am obviously biased. Lol

    Now that I've got 2 JKs and 2 Lethals, both with the same 2 berry ice cream flavours in them - I've been figuring out the differences. I'm glad you said about the creams, as that is what I've thought the Lethal brings out more. Whereas the JK Minis, bring out the berries. The Dvarws somehow mix it all up, throw it up in the air, and bring out their own special blend of whatever juice I've got in them. Between the 3, I'm happy as @Pigs in mud with them.

    Wicking wise - you've been doing this much longer than me. I've got a 2.5mm id 8 wrap in the boys Lethal and a 3mm id 7 wrap in the rasp one. Both I'm cutting, loosening and stuffing - and my tails are at the deck floor too. The 2.5mm id is an definitely airier draw than the 3mm id. And even though (according to steam engine) my 2 coils are close to identical in mass, and heat capacity - I need more watts to get the same vape from the 3mm id than the 2.5mm id.

    Anyway I'm just glad you like it, and haven't thrown it out the window in disgust!

    I got a couple of these free with my latest z80 kit:

    I gave Luna one, and she thinks it's now Christmas. It's being flung everywhere!

    First rta I've ever took the tails to the deck and will keep them there. Usually cutting above the deck and just tucked into the wick cage performs better in my experience. That alien coil is pretty sweet so may drop in a rda at some point.
