So, after some more time with the IPV D2, I have some further observations.

The deck at the top has become scratched up by repeated removal of tanks. You don't see it of course with a tank attached but it's annoying when I look at the mod without a tank on.
The accelerator on the settings when holding down the buttons is way, way too fast. It goes slow for about 1 second then goes super fast. It makes changing settings a bit of a pain as you just end up repeatedly clicking and going up or down in 0.1W increments.
I love the sliding door as it makes changing batteries so much faster than with the SX or VT40. The mod will still stand upright without a battery in and with the door removed.
The battery bay is big enough to take the longer, button-top VTC4s that don't fit in my SX or VT.
TC works absolutely faultlessly. It works as well as it does on the SX-Mini and that is high praise indeed as the SX is the benchmark.
I love the size. Not too big and not too small. Feels weighty in the hand.

It's now my ADV as it's really just that good. So good in fact that I've ordered another one.
 
I noticed that about things moving too fast as well, if it's at 10j and I want 25j, I can guarentee I'll see 30j before 25 :p.

Also a shame it doesn't have memory settings like the ipv4, made it easier to quick skip up the power levels.
 
Got my Subox Kit today, 0.5ohm coil with Mrs Bees Custard.

Can see what ive been missing now compared to the Wismec Presa with Nautilus Mini!

Got an order from dripdrop too and very impressed.
 
I know your pain. Popped into home on the way past and have a red card, but no normal post so my Chefs Vapour order is being held captive and there's a small chance my Goblin Mini might be waiting for me from FastTech when I get home. I wish I'd ordered the Goblin from the UK as FastTech didn't have stock at the time so its been close to 3 weeks since I placed mh order

I got nothing, NOTHING!! Why does the world hate me so? I need VAPEMAIL damn it!!!! :D

I feel it too:(

But the delivery gods are working on getting my stuff to me first.:p

I made an offering to them by way of burning some cotton while dancing around a old dead battery in front of my holy vape stand:D

Not sure its working tho!
 
Kanger Subtank users - anyone tried the new vertical OCC coils yet? Dunno how I feel about them, think I prefer the horizontal ones... :(

My new one has these but all I can compare to is the BVC ones in the Nautilus Mini.

Seem way better for high vg juice.
 
Hi All, im after a bit of advice,

Ive just bought a Subtank Nano to use with my istick. Previously I used a mini protank 2 with 12mg vampire vape e liquid.

Using this combination with the 1.2 ohm coil seems to be far too strong!

Can you recommend me some eliquid to use with this - i guess a 3mg would be suitable? I quite like fruit/citrus flavours.

Cheers!

Got lucky with one of these on the weekend, a woman was advertising one for 8 quid on UKVT (fb group), she coincidentally lived the street over from me!

There was a problem with the cap not manufactured correctly which is why is was so cheap, that's fine as I have bell caps on the way. The RBA deck & base are perfectly fine, using the base right now in fact.

Would thoroughly recommend trying the RBA deck, the vape vs stock coils is much nicer in my opinion.

I prefer the verticals , more air flow for me with my SubTank(mk 1).
The horizontal coils i used to get dry hits if chain vaping (as low as 25w with some coils) , verticals are fine up to 40w.
Flavour wise not much in it for my old jaded taste buds.

Tis true Cotton bacon!!!!!:eek:


Its only cotton wool

lol that name is hilarious

anyway since I am out of the vape scene and things have obviously moved on with bacon, squonking, titanium wire all which I have never heard of or understand :p I need a mod for my brother as he is trying to quit smoking again

Since he has already lost the ones I have him last time :rolleyes: he wants one that is big, has lcd screen and it he needs an atty that will also compliment it. The atty needs to be easy to fill and I can rebuild coils for him and produces lots of vapour. I don't mind clones since he is useless and will probably break or lose it after a month.
 
For some reason i'm not seeing the hype with nickel coils and TC, at least on the Starre Pro. I've went back to using the old normal coils and watts on it and flavour seems much more pronounced. Maybe it's just me but i tried every combination of joules/temp i could on the IP4 with it and went through a few coils but it's just not doing it for me.

Nope not just you.Have tried many combinations myself , twisted Kanthal/Nickel builds are pretty good or building below .1 ohms but still find myself using normal Kanthal builds
far more than any other combination.Maybe when they get TC working for Kanthal it will be better for my tastes.

You want to build your own, I found stock nickel coils, usually around the 0.15 mark, are quite poo, build your own, aim for ~0.06-7 and enjoy, if that still isn't floating your boat, try some Titanium, if you have the regular IPV4, update its firmware and it gives you a titanium option at 100J as well as 120w in power mode :)

I put a Kanthal build (1.1ohm) in my RBA+ this evening after 10 or so days on Ti, the amount of juice kanthal is using against Ti is unreal.
 
I don't think i'll bother building my own for now, that would require buying yet another tank unless i dug out the subtank mini and i don't enjoy vaping on that these days as the airflow is rubbish compared to tanks i've used since. And tbh i can't be bothered with the faff anymore, i much prefer just popping in a stock coil every week or two and job done, plus the Starre coils are pretty good and last for ages.

I didn't notice much or any difference in juice consumption, the only difference it made consumption wise was on battery usage which wasn't an issue in the first place.

I already updated the FW on the IPV4.
 
If you're happy with the regular coils then stick with it :)

What temp were you running the nickel coils at out of interest?
