THE ADAM A.P.S. FIRST LOOK

Here it is!  The A.P.S. (advanced Pulling System) for the ADAM from Team Rampage.  What is it?  Basically an Atty Tank!  It automatically pulls e-liquid (from the suction action of your draw) up from the tank section into your bottom feeding atty.   I have it set up with my HH.357.  So far, I’m pretty damn impressed.

All the vapor, flavor, and TH from the 357 without the need to drip or squeeze a little bottle. My God this may be Dimitris’ dream! 🙂

Time to order more 357s!

Look for a review soon (ok, yeah, I know the size of the Review Queue… “soon” is relative).

THE NEW SNOW TEST – PATENT PENDING

I have come up with a new test for electronic cigarettes. Here is the procedure:

Step 1 – Drive home from work mentally preparing yourself for snow blowing and shoveling.

Step 2 – VERY IMPORTANT – as you get out of your vehicle drop your device in a foot of fresh heavy snow. In this case, the Innokin SVD review unit. NOTES – old snow can also be used, but depth should be a foot or greater, snow density may also affect your results.

Step 3 – Go into the house, see another device and begin vaping it.

Step 4 – In about an hour, notice you haven’t seen the SVD in a while.

Step 5 – Begin looking all over the house for the device. Including coat pockets, different rooms, tables, counters (now getting desperate…) the garbage, refrigerator (it’s happened), sock and underwear drawer, under the cat (dog can be substituted) and of course, next to the shitter (oh come on, you’ve never left one there?)

Step 6 – Go outside into the snow and search your vehicle.  If found, the test was not conducted properly.  If not, continue on to next step.

Step 7 – Go back into the house and repeat step 5.

Step 8 – Come to the realization that you’re a dumb ass and have dropped a brand new review unit in the snow somewhere between the vehicle and the house.

Step 9 – Bundle up and head back outside.

Step 10 – Start kicking the snow around and find that it’s too heavy to feel the device.

Step 11 – Get on your hands and knees in the snow and begin to feel your way with your hands.

Step 12 – Find the device by the vehicle (and be happy you didn’t start at the house).

Step 13 – Take a photo so others can laugh at you.

Step 14 – Take the unit inside, remove the battery, and dry everything off.

Step 15 – Let it come back to room temperature, insert the battery, and cross fingers…

Although I’m sure most devices would fair the same way, I’m certainly happy that the SVD review unit did.

Step 16 – Consider moving to Florida.

Have a great weekend everyone!

THE PEACH PIT

Vaping Pink Spot’s Peach Pit Tobacco today. I have no plans for an “official” video review on this one, but lemme tell ya… AWESOME!

I tried this juice when it first came in and loved it. But I put it aside cause I knew it would be a long time before I got to the review, so there the bottle sat… just staring at me.

Last night after playing with my gennys 🙂 I gave into temptation and loaded it in the iClear30 that sat on top of the Innokin SVD that I’m currently evaluating.

Just love this juice. Sometimes you get two flavors that taste like one sitting on top of one another, this one is just a terrific BLEND of ripe peach and a very pleasant tobacco flavor.

Terrific vapor, flavor, and TH hit on this one. Very pleased.

If I do decide to do a vid on them, you’ll only be able to see an empty bottle.

Thumbs up and a street shout out!!

WHAT YOU GOT PETAR?

As I continue my journey into the world of the Genesis Style atty, I decided to try the Petar K method tonight with the Z-Atty Pro.

I had my doubts about this method. My biggest concern was with the coil making proper contact with the wick and therefore the juice.

I’m one of those guys who doesn’t believe anything until I try it for myself.

The results? I’m really happy.

Click on the little “i” in the upper right of the gallery to see my comments on the photos.

Thanks to everyone for all the helpful tips and tricks and to Petar for this method. Very much appreciated!

THE EVIC FIRMWARE V1.2 (BETA)

I’ve installed the firmware and have started playing with it.

I’m very impressed with this latest firmware and what they’re able to do with the device. I would have never guessed that MVR VV & VW would have been possible through firmware. In this case, I love that I was wrong.

  • Getting out of the menus is easier.
  • There is better information on the front screen (user selectable).
  • You can have a 24 or 12 hour clock.
  • You can set it for either Celsius OR Fahrenheit.
  • You can set it to NOT TURN OFF (YAY!).
  • Those of you with lazy fingers will enjoy AUTO mode allowing you to press and release the fire button while the device fires for a user specified period of time.
  • Multiple user configurations are now available.
  • Best of all it now says…

NO ATOMIZER FOUND!!! 🙂

Looks like the programmers have been busy for this update!

The software UI (User Interface) needs work, but I’m sure they’re on it.

The 3 MVR-VV settings for the different carto/atty resistance ranges caught my eye.  Good thinking!

It still only peaks out at 11 Watts or 5 Volts (which ever comes first) but that should be plenty of power for most vapers.

IMHO this is the first firmware revision since it’s release where the device is showing it’s true potential.

Those of you who had faith in this device and have stuck by it’s side, pat yourselves on the back. You deserve it.  You now have the very first device to do true variable voltage and variable wattage over time, and LOTS of settings to play with.  It’s almost like getting a brandy new device and not have to pay for it.

Looks like that BUH-IN award was well deserved.

I took a quick look at it’s MVR VV mode.  Below you’ll see the settings from the software and the results on the scope firing a 3.0 Ohm carto.  Works as advertised.  Impressive.

Before you ask me why the signal goes a little screwy at 4.2 volts, I’ll let you know my answer now… I don’t know!

Congrats Joyetech & the developers. Thumbs Up!  Very nice.
