After not doing regulated mods for over 2 years I recently dove back into them some after joining this forum. I have had some fun playing around with them, but as I already knew they are still not my thing. Mech’s with rebuildable toppers have been my bread and butter for three years.
There has been zero issues with the asMODus gear… the three Snow Wolf Mini’s or the Minikin VGOD. They have got it done in power mode just fine if the tank on them at the time played nice. I have no interest in TC at all. So, all four of them have not been a waste of time, effort or money to me… cheap fun and something to pass some long hours with. If nothing else I can keep them on the desk, put some of my high end RDA’s on them and drip them, or dig out my high end Euro carto tanks ran with Greek RTA’s that have flow control.
I can’t say the same for all the tanks bought for these mods though.
The three Target 2 Tanks have never failed in any way. Just luck of the draw I guess from getting only good 0.9 cCells (so far). I have enough of the 0.9 cCells in hand to see me thru to my last day if they all, or at least the majority of them continue to be good coils. While touted as the best flavor from ceramic coils so far, I don’t see the cCell as being any better than what I get from the Reos and their BF RDA’s (or some of my other mech mods/toppers for that matter), and without thinning juice down.
There is a Gemini Sub Ohm Tank sitting at my mail place waiting to be picked up that I'm not in any hurry to go get. But it will get a try out eventually since I have so many cCells on hand. In fact the only reason I finally bought a Gemini Sub Tank at all is all the cCells I have. If it has the vacuum problems so many others have had with them, any leaking, etc it won't be on line very long. I’m not loosening the cap or doing anything else to make it work like it should work right out of the box. If it works without any issues it will become my 4th (and last) cCell tank. Either way with all the BS from Vaporesso that they do not live up to, they have got my last dollar spent on gear from them.
The Geek Vape Avocado tanks have remained true with no issues at all. They have a big advantage to me as I can build them to my liquids same as I do in all the Reos and other mods running RDA’s/RTA’s. I am on a preorder for the Avacado 24's, but they are still many weeks away. But I can see the Avo tanks riding on all four of the regulated mods eventually.
The Wismec Theorem still continues to leak, albeit it only condensed juice from the top cap air vents. Doable, but it also gets very hot... both issues probably from my long, slow pulls. Add that getting the AFC dialed in right and keeping it there, or trying to get the top cap off to refill is an issue that can be a RPITA (and even lead to my breaking one glass tube). So I see no need to bother with it at all when I have Avo tanks that get it done with zero issues.
The new Cerabis Tank has not won me over either. Issues that may be my own, but they are issues that I will not tolerate. If the second tank and more extra boxes of coils for them was not already on the way to me I would have cancelled the order. My mistake for ordering more before I even had the first one in hand.
The Reos get it done for me every time I pick one up with whatever BF RDA it runs with whatever juice it runs, and with zero issues to deal with. So they will regain almost all of my vape time. I’ve started playing with some of my GP PAPS mech tube mods and their Heron, Spheroid and SnP/RTA toppers again as well after nearly 2 years out of service. They also get it done very well with no issues other than requiring more maintenance than the Reos do.
So I don't see any more tanks being added to my kit, or anymore regulated mods either for that matter. It matters not to me what other mods/tanks might work for other folks, I’m not interested. It's been a fairly cheap ride at something over $775 US that I’ve spent on reg mods and tanks for them over the last month and a half. But I’ve spent all I am going to on them. The Target and Avocado tanks will cover the four mods with spares until I have enough Avo’s for all four of them. Then the rest of the other tanks/coils bought can go by the wayside out of service completely, or revisited only as I choose.
Si it’s mostly back to the mech mod’s full time for me.
Thanks for the banter during this venture that got me involved with this gear regardless of how it turned out for my uses. It's been another chapter in my book of vaping that I can now mostly put behind me.
