Vaptio S150 ATC Kit Contest: looking for TC device testers—Part 2 Officially started

[Wworrells]

Hope to win bc if I do may have pif to someone tht wants to get into vaping and stop smoking.

 

[f1vefour]

This coiler is just an interesting bit of kit.

Here's the thing, having a contest for them may result in people that are inexperienced with TC ending up getting them and not having enough experience to offer proper advice..

The Vaptio S150 mod doesn't feature advanced TC menu adjustment options
in this beta/pre-release version. You select the wire type, adjust the temp setting
and off you go. If anything, it's primarily designed for new to TC vapers and anyone
else looking for a solid/well built and reliable device. That's why the manufacturer should
hear from TC newbies if they experience any difficulties or issues with this kit.

@cooladdict seems pretty smart to me and has helped me out a few times.

@USMCotaku has offered quite a bit of advice to me before.

3. If you are an experienced TC vaper, let us know what TC devices you have; If not, let us know which TC device is in your vape wish list

I have started out using an eLeaf iStick TC60W. I also have a Target, an X Cube II, and a Cuboid. I have not tried temp control on the Cuboid, but I have on the others. I've never tried making my own coils, but so far I haven't been impressed with TC.

4. To use a TC device, what kind of vape stuff you need, like the material of the wire, the rebuid tools, ohm reader, etc

I haven't tried making my own TC coils yet, but I would think you would need the same tools as kanthal wire. I use a set of precision screw drives that are 1.4mm, 2mm, 2.4, and 3mm. I have a good pair of scissors and a small pair of sewing snips, some nail clippers, some rayon, some ceramic tweezers, and some small needle nose pliers. I have heard stainless steel gives the best results, so I would like to try some of that on my Cuboid or X Cube II.

5. Do you know TCR (temperature coefficient of resistance) before? If you do, share the sheets of TCR you knew; If not, simply reply with “Not yet”

Not yet. I don't have them memorized, but I do have a cheat sheet saved somewhere.

@Shawn Hoefer
...he can't help pulling things apart and seeing how they work
And he can even put them all back together (most of the time )
He is really good at explaining things in an easy to understand way.

rebuild tools ? .. I will need to rebuild my TC device ??
Well...I am not there yet ...but I hear all you need to get started is a small drill bit, some coil wire and some organic cotton (or some type of wicking ) ...a small screwdriver to loosen/tighten the coil posts...a pair of tweezers for small work .... wire cutters ...(for the wire ) ... And an ohmmeter is a MUST !
Oh...and a good bit of patience ...and willingness to suffer trail and error ...working with tiny things is a talent and a skill ... and not easy for folks with arthritis or issues with dexterity. A wire coiler is a BIG help there!
There now ...not bad for someone who's never even built their own coil!

Definitely @Marina2
She is fearless when it comes to coil building .... I think she was barely a newbie when she started building her first coil. Very impressed.

I would have to be classified as a newbie at TC ... I don't have a wish list because I have no idea what sets the different TC devices apart from each other.
I want a TC device that's simple to use....with excellent flavor ...and good vapor would be a plus. I don't think that's too much to ask.
If it's something even I can operate ...and I like it .... then the
Vaptio S150 ATC Kit will have made a believer out of me.

Not really a review as much as a first look, but it's in English and gives us a look.

I try myself to do complex coils. Simple coils i do quickly.

There are so so many forum members = too many too mention individually = that have posted in the various coil building threads. They have answered many questions, given tips, and shared knowledge so that I am comfortable building coils for my RGM2s, GS Airs, Lemo Drops, Bachelors, and Goblin.

it really depends on accuracy, , having a warm vape above all else is more important than how gear looks or having the latest and greatest, it is what I'm looking for, it is what I desire from a vape....


cotton burns at 410F(although I never go over 380F) that is the important number above all else... If I can get a warm vape like I do now, If I can rely on a product that has a predictable outcome, I WILL ENDORSE IT.... If you can't offer that I wont...

It's really a pretty simple concept.... Say what you state.....

I know vape temperature preference is subjective but anything less than 390° seems on the cool side to me, anything over 450° is on the hotter end of the spectrum.

420° is perfect for me on most liquids, some are better around 380° and a few around 450°.

vape to ohm though. temp is what I rely on not numbers... how it feels on my tongue, not sure what range you vape, me generally it's .18 cold and .21 warn it's all relative to tc, if it's not as advertised, if it not what I enjoy......
