Up for review the Elephone ELE P70-LAISIMO 70W TC Box Mod. Sent to me by Gearbest free of charge for review. THE FACT THAT IT WAS FREE DOES NOT MEAN I AM FAVOURING THIS MOD. ALL REVIEWS WHETHER FREE OR PAID FOR ARE HONEST VIEWS ABOUT ANY MOD I REVIEW. If there is a problem with the mod, you will hear about it.
THE 510
The 510 is made of Stainless Steel, it is spring loaded, however with my Magma connected and tightened up it is not completely flush. The centre pin on my Magma does sit a little proud of the threading. Two other tanks that I tried were fine and did tighten up totally flush as were a couple of other drippers. This info has been fed back to the manufacturer. Just a couple more threads width are required really for it to be perfect.
The USB socket is on the bottom on this mod, personally I prefer them on one of the sides. Not an issue for me as I dont charge batteries on the mods I have unless I have no choice with a built in one.
The PU leather battery cover is held in place by magnets top and bottom. A nice touch is the stitched edge to the PU leather. It`s not just a stamped effect, it is red/brown cotton. It doesn`t hold anything in place as the leather type cover appears to be glued on somehow. There is no actual glue visible anywhere. The main cover appears to be aluminium sprayed black. If you find you have any movement of the battery cover in use, just a gentle squeeze of the cover will tighten it up to sort it out.
I love the display, it is very clear and easily seen indoors and out. You may think that the setting is a bit strange but I was using SS coils in the mod before I took the pictures and it was TC`ing perfectly on the Stainless Steel coils with that setting. The temperature can be adjusted one degree at a time. I`ve often though that 10 degrees was too much of a jump when adjusting for taste etc. It works as expected on Titanium and Nickel with the same sorts of settings as you are used to. So there is a bit more versatility there if you are prepared to experiment.
CONCLUSION
It is a very well constructed mid power mod. The finish is excellent. Hard to think of any mods that compete with this with regard to value for money. In my opinion the mod belies the sub £20 price tag for this. The only possible problem is the 510 being a little on the high side for my Magma, but other atties did sit flush okay. I think this is one of the manufacturers first produced mods and with or without that in mind it is excellent. A classy looking little mod, highly recommended.
Two other colour combinations available.
