Bold = textured Matt


Focal = smooth shiny


Both yilong? 510 & bottle opening differ too

gone for bold vape, in UK and prefer the Matt....let's see.

Mine's just shipped, don't know how long Hermes take to deliver...

I'm actually a bit confused because on Yiloong's site it says the TC one is 40w and the non-TC is 50w - so will have to wait and see, anyone know what chipset it uses

Think it said 48hrs...better for me I'm around on Thursday...

Mines turned up, got a silver metallic unlike the pic....just set it up... Squonking and the zenith atty is new to me.

Chip works fine, temp control works fine, charred cotton at around 380f, can suck the zenith dry without a burnt hit, got a 0.16 single coil set up, air hole so I can both MTL and lung hit as I so choose.... 20watts 380f, lung hits temp doesn't cut in unless running dry, MTL Temps active and doing its job. Its 40watts, no sleep , the bottle is easy enough to install and the plastic bottle tube should break well before the metal positive tube to the 510, same as the original I think? It works, no leaks so far and 1/5 of the price of the original is a bonus too.

I'll get some pics up in a mo.

Take all that back...just went to use mine and its lost all its settings from last night, screen rotation, watts, temp...some deep sleep mode I have never had with a flask clone....? Being returned.

Really enjoyed it last night..went to finish bottle off today to clean it and sell to get real one, done it again since so going back...can live with quirks of cheap clones but not setting up ever time I want to vape....its UK and I'm covered by pay pal.

For others though is just mine or yiloong?

Just replace the board with an Evolv one that's what I'm doing with the Kinxing flask (works OK, but with little niggles that can be lived with if you have more patience than I), from the sound of it the rest of the mod is OK.

Mine arrived earlier today, the black one, put battery in, thought seeing as I had no BF atty yet with a nickel build would just put one of my tanks on top to try it out first, altered all the settings to my liking tried to vape and it comes up with Weak Battery and shuts off, remove battery re-insert it and it won't come on at all, try another battery, same thing happens, Weak Battery then shuts down, tried Sony VTC4, VTC5, Samsung 25R and Black KeepPower 35A - same occurrence with them all - RMA requested [noticed in Temp mode it only went up to 40w as per YiLoong website]

So that makes 2 out of 2 failures - not a good start.

I wasn't too impressed with the supplied bottle either, even though I didn't use it, I took it out, bit of a hassle putting it back though, think I'll stick to Box type squonkers, might get myself another TB one or a Svapiamo with 350J board.

Yea a screw top bottle would of helped... Finish no where as good as a wadiea either but was when happy when the chip worked....just not happy with having to press fire 5 times re set it up just to have a vape.

You tried cleaning the battery contacts?

replacing the whole thing with a real one, much less work....

Kangix one is fine compared to this, Not a niggle, this is more a PITA...

Absolutely nothing wrong with the batteries, they were all tested in one of my VS DNA40s, the KeepPower one is brand new hadn't been used and had a full charge, tried some IP on the mod contacts, just in case, as long as i didn't put a topper on then it would work, but as soon as I put an atty on I got the problem, tried different atomizers as well.

Well Mr John Bold got straight back to me, offered me return postage, seems a fair guy that does a good service.

New flask turned up but no bottles... Still can't fecking squonk ....

blakey on the real flask I'm looking at a white piece under the atty, no pin sticking out like this clone and midland vaping are sending me out a "pack" that should of come with everything, is that right?

The real flask has a removable pin which is about an inch and a half long and a silicon o-ring sits over it inside the 510 to create a seal.

Before



And with the pin removed

Thanks mate, I need that pin, an oring by the looks of it, some tubing and a bottle..

Edit ... Mines black with a silver top, thought I was getting all black but like it..

I am pretty certain that Waidea will be supplying Focal with the flask squonker very soon. I have one coming for review from Waidea but it wont be shipped till next week
