Well, the VapeTeam have outdone themselves again. In this interview, they talk to Dr. Konstantinos Farsalinos, a Cardiologist at the Onassis Cardiac Center in Athens, Greece to discuss his study, “The effects of vaping on the cardiovascular system, comparison with cigarette smoking”.

Some fantastic information and lots of charts (which I just love and will be coming soon)!!

Thanks to everyone on the VapeTeam for bringing this to the vaping community AND allowing me to re-post it here!

Ok, there are several people who have asked me about my initial impressions of the itaste. Typically, I don’t share info until a review is complete, but in this case, I’m going to make an exception. There is some information I feel would be important to consumers.

There are a few issues with the launch of the itaste (in addition to the naming fiasco).

I received some kits to review and after taking a quick look I noticed the battery would not fire the set voltage.

You see, the device has a feature that reads the atty/carto resistance (ohms) and displays two recommended voltage settings on the screen, a high and a low. You can set it as high as you want above the recommended high setting (up to 5V), but it will only fire at the highest “recommended” voltage, and even THAT voltage is far below the setting under load.

So to make this clear, lets look at some numbers…. you put your atty/carto on it, it suggests a low of 3.3V and a high of 3.8V, you set it to 5V and you still only get 3.42V under load. And yes, unfortunately, those are real numbers.

Also, the signal is flat, there appears to be no pulse width modulation making the “experience” not match the “numbers”.

Innokin is sending another battery for me to use in my review. This is a revision 2 battery and will not limit you to the recommended high voltage setting.

Why am I telling you this prior to a review?

Because it means there are already 2 revisions of the battery out there and you need to be aware of this if you’re thinking about purchasing one. If you’re happy with the device limiting your high voltage setting based on it’s recommendation (and below that under load), then you’re all set. If you’re not, you should ask any potential vendor which version of the battery you’re going to get.

How will the second revision battery hold up under load? That remains to be seen.

Full review is coming soon… hopefully.
