I can't believe it. Finally the coil was beginning to get a scorched taste. My intentions were to remove the chimney, as I always do & replace the top flavor wick.
However, the part that holds the chimney must be thin, as I'm gentle with these components. It broke off as I was wiggling the chimney, First time it's ever happened to me, on otherwise the best coil that I've ever owned, after lasting at least 2x longer than expected. But it's nothing to knock anything off my previous rating, this device is still a solid 10 out of 10 & has became my favorite tank to use.
All isn't lost though, had one last KangerTech 2.5ohm coil left, the branded ones in the black box. Perfect fit! As was with the original coil, the initial fill went fast. The next was back to normal.
Yes, this tank is certainly worth the price asked about a page or two back, priced right in line to compete with the EVOD.. As long as shipping isn't overly expensive, some vendors has Free shipping, though around $3 is the norm on vaping sites, eBay sellers will have free shipping, but one has to be careful, some aren't genuine EVOD's. They show a picture of one, describe how great it is, then show a final picture, saying "This is the item you'll receive", and the brand isn't etched in.
So to be fair, these $4.99 offerings with Free shipping on eBay are knockoffs. Furthermore, some states that EVOD coils won't work with the product (in fine print).
