Joyetech Cubis

[washburn2102]

Finally got this from the "dodgy" vendor, so I've been having a play with it as follows.

Very simple tank, with a cup rather than a traditional style tank, which means no o-rings, seals or anything else at the bottom.

The coil fits onto the bottom of the chimney, and air flow control is via a ring that sits over the air holes.

It holds a good amount of liquid, but the "max" line isn't very clear, so I'll be marking it again myself.

The coil screws onto the bottom of the chimney, which you fit after priming, and as you screw the fitted sections down the bottom of the coil makes contact with the top of the 510.

Mine came with 3 stock coils - a 0.5, 1 and 1.5 clapton.

I soaked the coil/cotton on the clapton option, then to be on the safe side, put the W down to 8 watts, then built it up in half watt increments to 10.5 as per the "conditioning" needed on some other Joyetech coils.

It's really for those who prefer mouth to lung (which I do), but I'm really interested in trying the 0.5 ohm coil at some point to see how it compares to a subtank.

I'm not a big cloud chaser, so I chose the stock clapton coil because it was the highest rated ohm-wise, and the lowest recommended wattage out of the 3.

The draw is tight (again, how I like it) but not too tight with the airflow opened right up.

Flavour is excellent, and quite a lot of vapour is there for the settings. You won't cloud up a room, but there's plenty there.

All in all, a very good tank, and works very well, does everything Joyetech says it will and gives excellent flavour.

Hi,

Nice review. Sounds like a good buy.

Been using it for about 3.5 hours now, and the flavour is getting better, presumably as the coil "beds in".

Superior flavour to a subtank, and also better than the Delta II and Nautilus.

Really enjoying this vape, and surprised by the amount of flavour from a custard at low wattage.

Nice review washburn2102
Off to see Joyetech tomorrow morning and hoping to get to have a play with one. Interested in the 'cup' and airflow at the top to remove leakage issues too. The Top Fill, Bottom AF has been the cause of most leakage in my experience thus far - so if that's sorted, ans it looks good to, depending on the cost and longevity of the coils (and preferably an RBA) they could be on to a winner with the Cubis

Been using the cubis for a little while now, great little tanks.
I started with the .5ohm coils and there was absolutely no shame to them in cloud mode, decent flavour and plenty of vapour
Prefer them in MTL mode with the clapton coils though, I wouldn't say they are better than the nautilus coils in a kabuki for flavour but I would say they are every bit as good.
The latest versions of these come with a screw in tank bung which would enable you to carry spare tanks full of juice should you want to.
It is quite rare these days though to find a tank that caters for both mtl & dtl so it makes a great tank for beginners.
You just need to insert the right coil head for type of vape that you require

I have this tank...tis easy to fill & lots of flavour.

I only do MTL tho 

[washburn2102]

I do MTL and DTL depending on which tank I'm using, and pretty much how I feel on a given day.

I mean, if I'm having a few drinks, it's pretty much subtank all the way, some nice clouds seem to be a more satisfying to me with a drink (yeah, I know I'm odd haha ) or the delta II for evenings without clouds on the 1.2 ohm stock coils (haven't got the RBA deck for it yet though)

Out and about vape was the nautilus, and the Cubis will also fill this niche.

The bung for extra tanks sounds like a great idea as well.

I'm going to wait til this coil craps out, then try the 0.5, although I think this might be a thirsty one at the recommended settings.

Got a Cubis and a Delta 2 (think you'll like the RBA though just using with the pre-built coil and cotton) and slightly soft, very smooth for mouth hits with a thick and creamy Shape of the Vape, good VP for the 1.14 Ohms and good flavour - if slightly 'muted' - which is fine for me and DIY M+P's Praze.

The Cubis is pretty - aesthetically pleasing - with the 'hidden' AF contol, and optional Pyrex DT. Filling (give or taking the almost invisible max fill mark) is easy, and with a long snouted bottle (or legendary Spiky Thing ) you don't have to fully remove the entire 'working parts) to do so.

Trying the 1.5 O Clapton Coil head - and a good M-L option - Joyetech reckon that many newbie vapers M-L so that's who they were initially aiming it at. An RBA head is in the final prototype phase too, so should be available very soon.

Looking good on the Cuboid - but so does the Delta 2 - all in Black

Good info there, especially about the Cubis RBA.

I can also report that the Clapton stock coil is not very thirsty at all, and I'm still on the tank I filled yesterday, even though I've used it quite heavily.
I'd also say it looks pretty on every mod I have, even the istick 50w lol

[washburn2102]

Had a few days of excellent vaping from this, then last night, after a refill, it started gurgling, spitting etc and because unusable gouting out mouthfuls of warm juice.
No change in coil, all parts on tight, it seems it just decided to go a bit mad.

Still trying to find resolutions to this, but if anyone has any info it would be great if you could post it

Yeah I'm seeing a lot of mixed reviews with this. Could be QC issues.. I don't know?

It's a shame, the search for a good MTL tank continues.
