Mine is also due to be delivered tomorrow, fortunately my day off!

I think it's so cool to watch the tracking! Greece to Italy to Germany to New York - so neat!

They left a notice on my door, they tried to deliver it at 12:15 PM, it was stated by the end of the day. I got home at 4:10 PM, there was no way I was going to get it. The next delivery attempt is going to be Monday, also when I am at work, I just did the online authorization to have them leave it on my porch. I also now know why I couldn't find the authorization page to do that, there is a different web page for the USA, and you can't do it from the international one that I was on. I just checked the site again, they wont deliver it on Saturday. Oh well I will have it Monday, this is the reason I always choose standard mail deliveries, then all I have to do is pick it up from my post office.

Gah!

Well I certainly hope you are able to get it Monday.

DHL is lightning fast from Atmizoo...I almost always forget to switch it to be held at their local office in time!

FYI I’ve got confirmation from fellow MTL’er @stanleybb50 that the VapeShell is “just like vaping a kayfun”...

Never thought of it that way, since I use it with more airflow...

But good to know it suits MTL needs!

I kind of knew this was going to happen, when I saw the day of Friday for the delivery, If they had offered to ship it standard mail I would have chosen it. It is a PIA every time I ship any other way, super fast in my case is not really the best way. Any other week for the last 1 1/2 months I would have been home. I don't like the idea of it sitting on my porch for several hours, but I don't really have much choice. I have no idea where a local office is, or where to tell them to hold it.

I kind of expect it to vape like a kayfun just looking at it, I did order the smaller reducers, so I should be good once i get it.

I plugged in “DHL locations” with my zip code on Google, and found a service location about 10mi from my house.

I tested it out with a non-important shipment from another vendor (and topic). I had to show ID and sign for the package, but it worked.

All my Atmizoo orders now go there, and I swing by on my day off.

Of course, it may be easier in my neck of the woods, living in LA county / SoCal.

I am not going to change anything for this one, but I will try to remember that if I order again. In 5 years I think this is the 2nd time of having DHL deliver something. When ever I can I avoid using UPS or Fedex also, they are a PIA if you are not home to receive it. I might wait a bit longer for USPS, but if I am not home for them, my post office is 2 blocks away, and I can just go pick it up the next day, even on Saturday. I might e-mail Atmizoo, about offering postal service to those like me that prefer it.

Go for it!

They are always open for feedback!

In my experience, they have been on the same level as Provape & BBV for customer service.

Yep! Seriously. Those were my exact words too. Excellent flavor and surprisingly easy to build too.

Took a little time longer than usual to break in a new coil on my vapeshell, and my resistance was higher on initial build due to longer legs that the subtank mini rba I had been using. I dealt with the higher resistance (usually building 1.1ish, ended up with 1.3ish) and was skeptical at first because flavor was a little muted and I didn't get the throat hit I was getting with mini rba (which was there from first drag on fresh build). But the draw/vapor was very smooth and airflow dialed in perfect (went with smallest insert included, did get the MTL inserts but I think they'll be too tight for how I like it). Half a day of use made all the difference, coil broke in and the throat hit returned and I'm in heaven.

I got the Shell today looks good, I will build it tomorrow. Looks like the smallest of the standard inserts will work for me, I think the 3 smaller ones are too small. More once I build it.

Please keep us posted!

I’m definitely interested to hear what you and the others think of it!

For me, it was hard to top the Exocet...but I feel like the VapeShell has done it!

(And I even finally got my Odis Flow to start working pretty well...the Shell still wins!)

@stanleybb50 !!!!!!!

Hey bud!

Good to see you here again!!!

Care to go a little more in depth on your experience with the VapeShell?

Sorry if I’m laying it on kinda thick, folks...

I don’t have any Vape Friends in real life, so I don’t really get the chance to discuss cool new gadgets with anyone...

I built a coil after I got my first cup of coffee in me, I was shooting for my usual 2.0 OHM coil, ended up with 2.5 OHM. I did not get the coil angled right, but wicked it anyway, the flavor is definitely better than the BVC coils I was using. I will have to play with it a bit more, but it is a winner already.

I also have no real world vaping friends, I have to try to keep quiet about it around my family, they don't want to hear it. Vaping has become a very big part of my life, so when I get together with them, I basically have nothing to talk to them about.

I know the whole pic or it didn't happen thing. My first coil attempt.

[oplholik]

That looks like it ought to work well enough.

Coil alignment looks great!

I’ve found that I need to subtract a wrap, in order to make up for the longer legs.

That’s just my experience.

I shoot for 0.5ohm and use 2-wire twisted coils...

What is there that seals the two halves?

For a first coil, it does.

I was thinking backwards when I built it, and put more rather then less wraps.
After I was finished building it, I realized it could have been angled a bit more towards the wells, not bad for a first coil though. Just got to crank it up a bit.
