Go for it, amazing!

Shop only had 50/50 and 3mg, Vapes awesome all the same and tbh it's hard to tell reg VG amount. If it would have had 70/30 I would not have thought otherwise . Does give the flavour a lot of punch though and being a tad thinner,wicks easier over higher VG content . Always a few + and - .....either way
Great find ven
Will get some ordered

Gimmicky, he doesn't really go into detail on how the vape actually is, taste/hit etc. As for the leaking, meh, a lot of tanks now this new Crown one included don't leak at all either.

Two words 'user error'
Seems like most of the leaks are down to incorrect usage.

Just been woken up by the post lady,VAPE MAIL
So the Kbox200 arrived,looks real nice in red,sat the black crown tank on top running a Ni200 coil @0.15ohm and my latest batch of watermelon&cotton candy.
Got it up to 80w and wow it's a different class,then switched it to TC(3 different settings for different coil types) set it to Ni and 400*f and it's amazing,to say I've only had a few blasts on it and I'm still not sure how to use it properly then I'm sure it will only get better(when I get my head round how to use it lol)
Temp settings go to 600*f
Ordered 2 bottles of Heisenberg last night so looking forward to that

Dam I best get back to sleep,long night shift ahead! Will try get some pics up tonight and have a proper blast on the new kit but 1st impressions of the crown tank are Fantastic

Nice one, may bet the 120 or 200 kanger(probably the latter) as the mini is now gone...........always love an excuse for another mod

Think a lot use 480-500F as a guide, either way, if you set it at 550 it should cut the power to stop burning!

I love vape mail nothing coming for me though

Well I can say I'm loving the vaping even more now,that crown tank is excellent!
The Kbox200 is a great mod too and for under £45 a bargain imo.
Both on TC mode(500*f) and wattage mode(130w) it's honestly a different class
I'm going to get the v3 tank on the go tomorrow,should have my Heisenberg juice so will get a nice dual coil built up(Clapton maybe?) and give that a good blast.
One thing I will say,that crown likes its juice,already on a 2nd tank and just 5hrs into the night shift,think I might have to lower my nic fro 6mg to 3mg now

Here's a couple of pics,poor quality ones mind,a decent camera is next on my shopping/birthday list.

My sub ohm vapers old to new.....

Looks nice, I'm feeling a bit left out, I wanted a new tank but now I see I need a new mod to go with it going to have to wait a couple of months until my birthday though.

I feel the same, on the one hand I want shiny toys, on the other hand my iStick and Subtank still work great and are almost a year old. What I buy next will have to work for a year as well and most here seem to buy a new toy before they get a paint chip on the old one.

Yup Jack tis nice to have a nice new shiney "toy" but the way I look at it is now I have 3 good working vaporising machines is,,,one for working on the car,one for at work in a mucky print shop and one for home/out on the town
For those that don't like to get their hands dirty or don't have to do manual labour for a living then I suppose just the one "toy" will do.

I fancy a new toy too but since my subox mini is a little over a month old, works perfectly well and doesn't leak I'm struggling to justify something new.

As for the toy part I really fancy one of the pipe style mods for in the car, and the chilled out relaxing smoker in me fancies one of these 2 battery, taste sensation cloud monsters, problem is all together with batteries, charger, coils, cotton etc I'm looking at spending £150 ish to get both and that's a bit of a bridge too far, so just going to stick with what I have for now and treat myself to one or the other for my birthday in a few months, I'll probably have a better idea of which one to get by then too, so win win.

[QUOTE=ditchmyster;11779505]I fancy a new toy too but since my subox mini is a little over a month old, works perfectly well and doesn't leak I'm struggling to justify something new.

IMHO you have started right, its still a good kit! and can compete almost with the advanced kits in flavour............yet so simple! Its a perfect starter into the sub ohm world without too much investment to only find its "not for me".

Not only that, come the time you may decide on another kit, it makes a great back up, or one for out and about,working on the car etc etc.........

Some of the more advanced kits are not for all, especially 80+w as some can not be heavy vaped without getting too hot etc. So for an every day vape(edv) the mini kit is perfect!

Yeah I'm very happy with it tbh and agree it's a great bit of kit and perfect for me with the rebuildable coils, now I've started making my own juice it's cheap as chips, only thing really is I'd like another tank so I can have a couple of different juices on the go and a spare battery with a charger, which then just gets me thinking I may as well get another mod, really fancy the V3 but don't have the mod to run it.

The crius v3 is pretty amazing, i honestly cant fault it other than always wanting a slightly larger base for building. Still its a lot better than most!!

New uwell coming out
https://www.ukecigstore.com/uwell-ra...eid=da56ee12c4

Dont think enough for me to buy as i have a couple of crowns, not seen the RBA base for it(if there is one, would be crazy if not). This may be the deciding factor on a potential purchase down the line.


Ideally a mod that reads from 0.1ohm, plenty out there.

What i like and in no specific order(sticking with single cell as presume you dont want dual/karger)
SMOK cube mini
Kanger platinum
Joytech vt60 mini(this is a good option and now 75w, hard to fault for the money)


Now you could get the kanger mini to work with the v3, all you need is the coils not to go bellow 0.5ohm. So buying pre-made(or make)2x 1.0ohm coils at around 2-2.5mm diameter. This will give 0.5ohm and will work

You wont be getting the best out of the tank imo, but later you could get another mod.

You will have to sooner or later as most now, even coils that are pre-made are less than 0.5ohm(0.15/0.25 as examples).

For a well priced dual mod, check out the 200w kanger, even the 120w version for bellow £40......

What ever you decide or short list, just put name in on youtube with review after it. Get an idea on the UI and size etc, any pitfalls........10 mins of your time could save you £50 or so. As what i like, you may not........all quite subjective with different UI's and sizes going on....

Thanks again Ven, I was actually thinking to go for a dual battery mod, may as well push the boat out and get something that will be a little future proof and give me the flexibility for all the various tanks and coil set ups, quad coil here I come as ultimately it will save me money in the long run, I don't want to be buying a new mod every couple of months, I think 3 will be enough and one of them will have to be a pipe style as I just love the look of them, pipe and slippers and a nice rocking chair.

Be careful with the pipes, they all used to be unregulated.

This is the one I think I'll be going for, I think it's probably the best one out there, but like I said it won't be for a while yet, so maybe there will be something new by the time I'm ready to get one.

Its a nice pipe mod, again be aware sub ohm tanks will not work, only normal type. Tanks like the nautilus as one for example of a good standard one.

Best way, check out at the time, once happy buy and dont look any more......or at this thread Seriously, its like every week a new tank/mod is out.......

Cover it with ~200w, dual cell and real low sub ohm detection. Stick with well know brands and but from a reputable shop/seller in case of issue.

Make sure cells are bought in batches of 2 or 4 so you use the same 2 together........forever!

Wow that crown can take some heat,got it up to 160w,was expecting blisters but just getting more flavor coming through,will see how high I can handle
Juice is going down faster that the petrol gauge on a spirited run lol.
Pure wattage mode seems better than TC tho tbh.

No sign of my Heisenberg today tho so the v3 will have to wait.

Just been looking at vids on utube of how to make your own e pipe mod, seems pretty easy and quite straight forward, is it really that simple or is there some safety aspect I'm missing.

I wouldn't want to build my own mod tbh,the 18650 battery's are like sticks of dynamite if not used correctly,although I'm sure plenty of people have successfully made decent custom mods.

Question:
Is the TC mode for if I fancy a little chain vaping?
Stuck it on 600*f and yeh it's a nice smooth draw.
But on 180w it defiantly gets hotter but flavor is on a different level(although making me dizzy )

TC lets you set the temprature below the burning point of cotton, Vape like a smoke machine, higher wattage machines get to that temp quicker.

Well after reading a few articles on TC and different wires it turns out I should NOT be using nickel(Ni200) coils in wattage mode! Can give off bad toxins.
So swiftly changed the mod back to TC.
The Kbox200 is good for stainless steel,nickel,titanium or nickel chrome wires in TC mode.
For now I will just stick to the premade Ni200's I have,do some more research before building my own coils when using the mod in TC.

Useful site is that, good for not only working juice or what A your drawing from the cell, but also making coils. Put in the gauge, what ohm and diameter, then tells you how many wraps.

TC wise, not used it yet, have the coils and the gear..........and no idea

Will try it sometime, tbh i am happy old school with W's
