Famovape Magma Box Mod Review - If resin vape mods never went away, how can they be making a comeback? We may never have an answer, but if the recent glut of them on my desk are any indication, it’s a welcome trend. A few months back, we had the awesome iJOY Shogun UNIV device, [...]
eGo ONE Mega and Mini From Joyetech In this special edition of the Cold Open I give you a good look at both the Mega and Mini eGo One's and talk about the specs. These devices will be shipped to Julia in Boston for a written review next week. In the meantime, sit back and enjoy [...]
Vision Aurora BFT Clearomizer/Tank Spinfuel Staff writers Tom and Jason get together to discuss the review for the Vision Aurora BFT. Recording devices were there, things were said, this is it. The review. Tom: This is one of the most annoying clearomizer/tank apparatuses I’ve ever used. It works, don’t get me wrong, but it is annoying as [...]
First and foremost, it’s confession time. Before I even start this review I need to get something off my chest. I am not of fan, in the slightest bit of Genesis style rebuildable atomizers. I don’t like working with stainless steel mesh or standard wrapped coils. I don’t like the fact that you can’t lay [...]
SMOK Galileo Mechanical Mod - $49.99 Vaporetti.com Mechanical Mods are meant for experienced Vapers. Unless you have a specific need for a purely mechanical PV you would probably fare better with a variable voltage or variable wattage APV. Having said that, if your inclination is toward mechanicals the Galileo, for less than fifty dollars, is an [...]
Introduction I have half a dozen amazing pieces of gear on, in, and around the desk where I spend my workday. APVs, mechanicals, cartomizers (ohhhh, so many cartomizers…) clearomizers, RBAs, even a couple DDAs. But when I’m not reviewing or experimenting to find that new personal favorite, what do I fall back on the most often? It’s [...]
X.Jet Spider And A Vision Spinner Despite the Vision X.Jet Spider clearomizer being out on the market for a few weeks now I get this distinct feeling that the world’s best clearomizer is practically being ignored by more Vapers and reviewers then it deserves. It’s time to correct this injustice. The X.Jet Spider, as well as [...]
The first new product to hit the vape community for 2014 is here. It’s the “mod powerkit”, a radical new approach to the electronic cigarette that combines high-tech design with simplicity and ease of use. Best of all, it works. It works really well. The ‘mod powerkit’ is a 900mAh, 3.7v of regulated power in a [...]
When I received the Vision X.Jet Spider, I was fairly eager to put it through its paces. I don’t have the same level of experience with Vision’s clearomizers; I’m sure many have tried and either loved, tolerated, or hated the original Vivi Nova, but I can’t say the same. I have tried the Vision V-Fate, and [...]
Innokin Cool Fire 1 Once I read Tom McBride’s piece on wattage vs. voltage I instantly understood not only the differences between the two, especially the part about being able to use voltage OR wattage in your settings, not both, I also understood how using one or the other changes the vaping experience. You if haven’t [...]
A VV/VW e Cigarette Review When I tell people that I collect ZMAX e-cigarettes, if they know the name and they’ve seen them, I sometimes get a look that sort of implies some kind of sexual innuendo. I kind of “Of course you do…I mean just look at them. They are the most ‘phallic’ looking e-cigarettes [...]
Innokin iTaste VTR Review During the course of 2013 I’ve reviewed, or played a part in the review, of virtually every major Innokin PV release. Each one had its merits, and its ‘issues’. By far the one that made the biggest impression on me was, and remains, the black iTaste 134. Not only does it break [...]
The Innokin iTaste VV v3.0 Review by Tom McBride We were recently introduced to an online vendor based in China, called “Fairy Gifts”. This is a company that works with the major manufactures and offers great deals on all kinds of hardware. Fairy Gifts sent us the Innokin iTaste VV v3.0 for review purposes. That review [...]
VapeRev/Atmomixani Nemesis - $200 (USD) "A superb stainless steel and brass fully mechanical e-cigarette. Art and Function Personified" - Spinfuel eMagazine - Julia Hartley-Barnes For the first of many reviews of mechanical mods sold by VapeRev, we zeroed in on the one that made it to Julia’s “Wishlist” the moment she laid eyes on it, The [...]
The iTaste 134 Review Many of you that are fans of Dr. Who will know exactly what I’m talking about when you see the Innokin iTaste 134 up close and personal…the rest of you are probably thinking “The Sonic What?”… and for that I apologize, but the very first time I opened the iTaste 134 metal [...]
