I love this little vape. I read the reviews after I ordered it, and seriously thought about returning it un-opened. I'm glad I didn't. I've had it for over a week now, and think I know where some folks are going wrong with it: "It leaks straight away/It spits" -When you unscrew the black mouthpiece to fill the tank, you'll see 3 holes: 1 round hole in the middle, and 2 'kidney' shapes either side of it. You NEVER FILL THE MIDDLE HOLE. Fill using the kidney-shaped holes. The round hole is meant to be kept clean and clear. If you fill it, liquid will run down and out of the airflow control ring's holes, and will also cause spitting. "The battery died after 3 days" -The vape doesn't come with a USB wall adapter. The manual says that it's meant to use a 5W adaptor. If charging from a laptop/PC, you should be fine, but DON'T USE A 12W USB WALL ADAPTER. If you use a 12W USB wall adapter, you'll damage the battery (you'll notice it getting very hot during charging). Also: the manual says not to leave it connected to the charger for more than a couple of hours after it is fully charged. "The coil died after 3 days" -The button you press to fire the vape is pretty prominent. Putting this vape in your pocket WITHOUT powering-off the vape will likely result in it accidentally being pressed and will damage the coil. You press the Fire button 5 times (quickly) to power on and off. Also: Unlike cigarettes, MTL vapes work best with slow, steady draws instead of hard, quick pulls. Drawing hard on them can damage the coil. Instead, draw slow and steady, release the Fire button, and then draw hard. That way you'll get maximum life out of the coil (my last vape used Nautilus coils that needed changing every 3 weeks, I'm guessing these are similar? -you'll know when it's time to swap them out when you start noticing a burnt taste). If you really want to prolong the life of your coils, let the coil cool down in-between drags. Puffing away like mad for 2 minutes (like a cigarette), is surest way to over-heat and damage the coil. "The battery sucks, you have to charge it once a day!" -It's the size of a Clipper lighter... besides, a full charge from empty only takes 90 minutes. I think a full day's vaping from such a small vape is pretty neat. "I can't get a proper hit, it's not strong enough" -Use a stronger liquid. Most bottles are 10ml big. The stronger liquids contain 16mg/18mg of nicotine (1.6%/1.8%). If you come straight from ciggies and use a 1mg/3mg or even 6mg liquid, you will struggle. Another thing to bare in mind is the 'strength' of the replaceable coils (measured in Ohms). Use the Nord Coils in 0.6 Ohm coil for more vapours and flavour. Use the Nord Coils in 1.4 Ohm or 0.8 Ohm coils for a tighter draw and a vape experience similar to smoking. "You need special vape liquid for this tiny vape" (20/80 etc) -You really don't. I use 88vape liquid (50/50) which is as cheap as they come, and it works fine. It's worth mentioning that while 50/50 works well in most MTL devices, thicker VG-heavy liquids (70/30) may not wick properly in smaller vapes. Some other info: "H, N, S, M" on the LCD represent High, Normal, Soft, and Minimum modes. Personally, I prefer 'H' mode for more power -although I don't think they are that important. It's easy enough to accidentally switch between them and not notice a difference? Last thoughts: Manufacturing mistakes do happen. I'm sure a few of these will have genuinely bad components (you do occasionally get the 'bad coil'). But on the whole, I think it's a great little vape. If I were to suggest improvements: make the manual bigger/easier to read, and include all the basic info I've mentioned. These cheaper vapes are entry points for many new vapers -why not help them out? Also: The LCD bars flash while charging, then go dark once it's fully charged. If over-charging can damage the battery, wouldn't it be better to have a normal "charging indicator cycle" (bars filling up, emptying, and then refilling), and then have the LCD flash when it's fully charged? -maybe even add a warning beep?
