NEW IN THE QUEUE – THE VAPORESSO TARGET 75W VTC KIT WITH CERAMIC COILS
THE VAPORESSO TARGET 75W VTC KIT WITH CERAMIC COILS
The design on this one? A little gimmicky and perhaps even a little childish I think, yet it is quite comfortable to hold. When I saw the large red “thumb rest” on the back, I really thought this one had fire buttons on both the front (red trigger) and the back, but alas, it is simply a “thumb rest”.
The coil heads on this one use a ceramic core (no cotton) and promise:
- No spitting
- No dry hits
- Self cleaning
- Longer lifecycles
I’ve had very little luck with coils utilizing ceramics as wicks so this will be interesting to try out.
Some additional information I’ve been able to gather:
- 5-75 watts max
- .15-5 ohms
- Magnetic battery door
- Single 18650 battery
- On-board charger
- 2A charging
- Auto-detect TC coil
- NI200 support
- Gold plated brass 510 pin
- SS 510 threading
- Finish is spray-painted
- Available in multiple colors
NEW IN THE QUEUE – THE ASPIRE ODYSSEY MINI KIT
A nice little, almost all-inclusive (no RBA or batteries) kit for a beginner or someone looking for a backup.
This kit includes:
- Triton mini tank (a 1.8ohms Clapton coil pre-installed )
- Pegasus mini mod(no cell)
- 1.2ohms kanthal coil
- Ni200 0.15 ohm temperature control coil
- extra glass tube
- USB charger
I really do wish some of these kits would include batteries for those beginning vapers who don’t have drawers full of them. 🙂
I’m pressed with the display on this one. Big and bright and quite easy to see.
More from Aspire:
This kit is comprised of the Triton mini tank, the Pegasus mini, and an Aspire micro USB cable.The Triton mini is a truly versatile pint sized dynamo with its’ wide range of coil options and truly adjustable airflow controls. Not to mention the convenience of its’ top filling capability. Then there is the Pegasus mini mod, an ergonomic device that is sleek and elegant as well as possibly being the easiest to use temperature control device currently available, as well as one of the smallest. With swappable batteries, wattage adjustment from 1 to 50 watts in regulated mode, capable of firing atomizers from 0.1ohm to 3.0ohms in REG mode and in BYPASS mode it can fire coils from 0.2ohm to 3.0ohms. It is a perfect match for the Triton mini . Their individual versatility is impressive, but together they are amazing. All in the palm of your hand.
NEW IN THE QUEUE – THE ARCTIC DOLPHIN ADT-210TC
I haven’t been a huge fan of the Arctic Dolphin mods and I question this one promising 210W on two 18650 batteries in series. Keep in mind that the DNA-200 promises a max power and max preheat of 133 watts on 2 18650s.
The box doesn’t feel too bad in the hand and those who like a center mounted 510 connection in a box may like this one.
The buttons have a slightly hollow and cheap press to them.
There is a more substantial menu on this one with a fair number of features.
Here are the advertised specifications:
- 200-650F (Celsius Supported)
- Spring Loaded 510 pin
- On-board charging via micro USB
- TI/NI/PT TC coil support
- Wattage 5-210W
- TC Resistance Range – .06 – 1.0 ohms
- Wattage Resistance Range – .1 – 2.1 ohms
- Max Voltage – 7V
- Max Amps – 45A
- Magnetic battery door
NEW IN THE QUEUE – THE TILEMAHOS NEW BUILD DECK BY GG/IMEO
THE TILEMAHOS NEW BUILD DECK BY GG/IMEO
This is an interesting new build deck for the GG Tilemahos atomizer. This deck uses no screws to capture your coil. You build what he’s calling a “spring” (coil with no leads) and then press it into the deck and it wedges into place.

FDA Deeming Regulations of Vapor Products Moves Forward
The planned “deeming regulation,” with which the FDA will assume regulatory authority over e-cigarettes, has finally started moving forward again. It is now under review at the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), the White House office that is tasked with making sure regulations create more benefits than costs. There is little doubt that the proposed regulation will eliminate the legal market for 99.99% — perhaps even 100% — of the products over which FDA asserts jurisdiction after a grace period. (The grace period in last year’s draft version of the regulation was two years.) There is an unconfirmed rumor that FDA will attempt to ban all non-tobacco flavors almost immediately.
CASAA is currently working on our presentation to OIRA at a meeting that is scheduled for December 15, 2015. This is a process in which we and other petitioners are required to provide analysis to OIRA without the benefit of seeing the exact current regulation. However, we have every reason to believe that it is, unfortunately, basically the same as the draft FDA published last year. As of now, it is our assessment that OIRA altering or rejecting this proposed regulation is the best hope of saving the diverse e-cigarette marketplace until Congress changes the law. (Please note that some have suggested that individual vapers try to schedule meetings with OIRA. We are not recommending this to our members. We are, however, asking consumers to submit their stories as part of CASAA’s Testimonials Project. We will be sharing those testimonials with OIRA at our meeting next month.)

The Post Review Follow-Up:
- 11/12/15 – You can, in a way, adjust the pre-heat on this, but I’m not sure I agree with it’s implementation. In the manual, they say, “The maximum INITIAL wattage can be adjusted in VT mode”. In practice, these values need to be separate. One value for pre-heat, one value for the maximum wattage applied to the coil to maintain the temp. They don’t work together. Because if it’s JUST the initial wattage I’m adjusting, I should be able to set it to 1watt, there would be no preheat, but it would still come up to temp which it does not. So that wattage adjustment in TC not only controls the pre-heat burst, but also the max watts applied to maintain temp. Adjusting down to around 55 watts did smooth things out for me. This would have been interesting to explore in this video and to see on the scope had I known they did things a little different from the rest AND I didn’t have to adjust the wattage when in temp control in ONE DAMN DIRECTION (LOL). Still think they need to be separate values though. 🙂
- 11/12/15 – For SS TC, it’s tuned for 304 SS.
- 11/13/15 – Something I failed to mention in the video is that the V1.3 of the firmware is the same as the V2.0. The only difference is the screen. So if you’re having a hard time seeing some of the items on the screen in the V2.0, go back to the V1.3 version as it’s a little easier to see.

SPONSOR BANNERS PRICE REDUCTION
FYI:
The number of gold sponsor ads that appear above are limited, and although I’ve been requested to, I won’t add any additional gold slots as it would limit advertisers’ exposure.
So I’ve greatly reduced the price of the sponsorship banners that appear to the right in order to make them more cost effective and allow anyone to sponsor, advertise, or be seen on TasteYourJuice.
You don’t need to be a vendor or manufacturer to have a sponsor banner, everyone is welcome to sponsor and be seen on TasteYourJuice.com.
If interested, go to the bottom of the list, click on the “Advertise Here” box and the self-service application will guide you through the process. Prices are also given before you commit. You’ll need a PayPal account and a banner with a size of 125×125 to complete your placement.
Thanks everyone & Happy Vaping!
