Just got my Vapeonly BCC and stuck it on my KGO, which has collected dust ever since i realized it makes everything burn. Well this thing works like a champ on it. I barely have to take a puff and its a monster!


Edit: Hope this plastic can handle banana flavor lol, that would be a waste

I like quite a few things about this device. The way the head mounts, the fact it doesn't leak (if you don't take out too many flavor wicks) how well the unit fits together, the amount of vapor it gives off. But the flavor seems lacking. Not burned, just bland flavor. I finally broke down and replaced the factory flavor wicks with a piece of silica I had from a premade coil. Looks to be around 2mm. Fit perfectly and no flooding or burned tastes. The flavor didn't change, this is with the 2.x ohm preinstalled head, not the 2.5 or 1.8 the 1.8 burned everything religiously. I haven't tried the 2.5 yet.

One thing I have noticed is that this doesn't perform as well on my vamo (RMS VW mode) as it does on a twist or unregulated mod. I get nothing but burned tastes on the vamo until I back the wattage down to a point where its barely firing.

The Twist is a great device with little PWM. Whereas the Vamo uses the 33.3 chip, with a quite square signal.

I'm in the same spot as you are I can get it to work "ok" on my twist, still not great though, but it just burns or is hardly firing on my evic as well. I was really hoping this was better than this, especially considering how good the EvoD is once you plug a hole or 2 on the side to slow down the airflow

I picked up 3 of these when they first came out.. just got around to using them this week (well, one of them). It seemed to work okay the first hour or so, kinda had a plastic taste to it. But it gave good hits on my Vamo and my twist. After about an hour or so it started flooding really really bad. I'm still on the head it came with and have yet to try the other 2 units i got. I need to do some more testing on this, but it's kinda just like a T3 which i didn't care for to much.

I'm hopping a recoil will make this thing work better, or just switching to a new head that it comes with. I vape very thin juice, 70/30 or 80/20... maybe that's why it's flooding.

i honestly don't understand the perseverance you people have with clearomizers. i tried 2 types ( 1 year apart ). same problems and inconsistencies. done with them for good. they keep making beauty changes to the same finicky system. and you keep wondering why the new 3,2323,23 version is having problems.

There's good and bad; I have a few "go to" clearos that I buy all the time and love and have no issues with. I picked these up since I love the idea of a bottom coil clearo, it just makes sense to have the juice constantly saturating the coil. Guess they still need some time to get the whole bottom coil clearo concept down.

Most of the unconsistencies with T3 came in early october. After I washed them as soon as they arrive, I have 3 heads (1 rewicked with cotton) going strong after 70 days. The key is washing them as soon as they arrive. The vapor varies because of the liquid, not the head. Some lighter liquids give out less vapor.
 
Interesting... looks like somethin I'd like to try. Anyone found any local (u.s.) vendors selling this?

Clouds of vaper carries them. I ordered one and tried it with Bobas bounty (very thick juice) and it's not wicking well at all very dry and scratchy. UN happy but will try again with thinner liquid.

All three of the heads that came with mine tasted burnt and nasty. The one that came installed wasn't too bad after removing a wick, but it did start to flood after a ml or so. The others just tasted nasty no matter what I did.
So I re-wicked/coiled them with a 2mm silica wrapped 7 times with kanthal A-1 for 2.3ohm, then covered it with another 2mm silica, and haven't had a single issue yet. I'm able to use just about all the juice with no flooding or burning. Even up to 6v on my KGO, still no burnt nasty taste.
Its not quite as nice as a vivi IMHO, but its adequate, and no tilt-a-whirling needed.

As Phil Busardo says, taste is subjective.

To start, this is a cute little thing! Used to long T3s and Vivis, this is a budgy little character. To top it off, the red is more fucsia in hue.

I washed it with warm water as usual. I didn't remove any wicks since I use mostly 60/40 juice. But I could feel it was choking, although it didn't give me any dry hits or burnt taste. I first tried the 2.2 ohm head installed, and it vaped like a freight train after I removed 1 flavor wick (it's got three). One thing that made my vape better was unscrewing it just a touch. Increased airflow gave me more vapor. The flavor is still muted, but I attribute it to the head still needing breaking in.

The top and bottom aluminum gets real hot if you chain vape. I hate aluminum driptips, and I assume they'll get real hot. I had a regular amount of condensation in the dripwell, but little of it came into my mouth.

What I love the most is the fact that fully filled, I can remove the driptip and set it down without danger of tipping and losing precious eliquid. The head is really small but it vapes extremely well.

I still have many T3 in stock, and we'll see how much replacement heads cost. But it's so lovable, and vapes so well I might end up getting another one soon.

I bought one two weeks ago and it has been working really well with one wick removed. I have used it with two juices, both 70/30 (or close to it) with nothing more than a rinse between flavors. Two fills a day, so 28 tanks - almost 100ml on the same coil.

I like it so much I bought another today at a B&M. Removed a wick and filled it at the store. Right to vaping and it works as well as the first.

To the folks that are getting flooding: do you have a tight draw? BCC's can easily suck juice right into the stem with a tight draw and a strong pull. My VO BCC has a bit of a tight draw on one of my devices and when I over do it I can suck a bit of juice in.

Edit: Oh, and I ditched the whistle tip right away too, I can't stand them.
