Wotofo Serpent Mini

[snkrumble]

I run mine into the channels just to or slightly below the first step. No dry hits or leaking for me this way.

Just after I posted that, I watched two videos on it on youtube. Forget the person but said to have it come to the first lip in the channel and sort of tucks it back in the main area. Worked great so far for me running one of the premade twisted coils at 31 watts with some V3 banana cream pie. Love it very small, hits pretty good (my favorite is still my super mini tanks with .5 tobeco coil) great rta. I tested a few of my own coils on it only thing that drives me a bit crazy is making a left handed coil.

Ha... I'm not the only one.

Mine arrives in a couple of hours, but I already have to roll lefty for the Triton RBA head.

WoToFo is a sinister company.

Got two of these tanks due to be delivered today. Im hoping they will solve my wifes problem of atties getting stuck on all of her mods, no matter what tank she uses they get stuck. Ive came to the conclusion that its simply the menthol juice she vapes.

my wife takes the tank off while leaving the base on the mod. when she puts the tank back on the base gets tighter each time so it will be a bear to get off.

I have the Beacons from Beyond Vape. Authentic Telescoping mod with a topcap. $25 excellent beginner mech Mod. You can always add a Kick fuse to your tube mods to make them safer too. It will protect you from shorts that cause battery venting.
I think I am going to pick up a couple of these Serpent minis for my brother and myself.

Woot! Vape mail's here.

Bachelor Nano and the Serpent Mini... they're havin' a bath.

I expected small, and the B Nano is. A couple mm taller at the shoulder than the Melo 3 Mini (the paired tank that comes with the iStick Pico).

But the Serpent Mini... it's positively miniscule.

When I put it back together I'll set it next to a couple of small RDAs (I don't have many small tanks).
It looks to be no bigger than a Plume Veil or Mad Hatter Mini... that's ridiculous.

Yep. I have never used them but have heard they work. Maybe someone who has used them will chime in.

Hello Serpent Mini fans! Has anyone seen/found colored glass replacements for this tank yet? Or is the tube equivalent to any other tank's dimensions?

I love me some colored glass tubes and matching drip tips. Thanks in advance!

Fastech usually has alot in colored glass. Not sure if it's same as others but probaly there's something.

You need to take base off with the entire atty. So nothing gets over tightened.Thats my suggestion check Gearbest for atty holders threaded. I bought a bunch cheap(10 for $15).

Yes...I've been stalking Fastech but I haven't seen any for the Serpent Mini. Thanks anyway!

Happy for you! Now it's play time! Let us know how you like the bachelor nano, I'm trying to gather up gear just in case for the vape apocalypse.

I think since its new give it a about 2 weeks then check again.

Thanks to this thread I just ordered an Atto style Mech Mod...lol

I ordered one too, do you know if in 18650 mod are you suppose to use a flat top or nipple top battery? Thanks!

I have several different tanks as well as several different mods and she keeps having the issue even when using top-fill tanks. I use some of the same kinds of tanks and never have an issue but I dont vape menthol and thats all she vapes. Its very strange.

So it's been almost 24 hrs with the Lil' Serpent...

This is the driest topper I've ever had... I mean, the outside is still bone dry.
That may change as I rewick or recoil, but I'm fairly gobsmacked so far.

Performance is just as reported, no surprises there. I'm liking it a lot.

Nit picks...

Minor - I wouldn't choose black for a second one. The ridiculously small size means the silver chamber bell appears proportionally larger. Kinda defeats the purpose.

- Is this really 2ml? Seems to refill in a blink so I suspect it's a tad less.

Major - Not a huge concern to me but... the DT sucks.
It's plastic, stumpy and the DT well is very shallow. It doesn't sit flush.
I grabbed the taller Bachelor DT and all is well. I don't buy them separately, so I'll do a more thorough search for a replacement later. To me it's a big "whatever" but some may be upset. YMMV.

- I like the deck but not the choice to use a "slot" instead of post holes.
It made it very finicky to get my first build positioned without distorting the coil.
It may just require practice, but I'm not seeing the advantage yet.

That's about it for now.
I bought it for, and have it on, the tiny iStick Pico.
The paring almost disappears... it's so small.

If it stays this dry... it's a seriously pocketable tank.

Fast tech should have em

One other minor concern I forgot to mention...

There's very little metal at the top next to the removable top cap.

I was a good number of eighth turns in when I realized I was holding the glass... and unscrewing the entire upper from the base.

Screwed it back in and refilled it right and there was no issue, no leaking, no problem.
Just a heads up for everyone.

 

[madLyfe]

any of you guys know if the mini base fits on the larger serpent?

Are you going to post your thoughts on the Bachelor nano tomorrow? Excited to hear.
