Anyone else got one yet? I just recieved mine today and I seem to have got the good coils (there has been some quality issues apparently). I have the black tank and got the 2nd generation coils with the shiny finish rather than the matted finish. Only tried the 0.25 so far and getting the same intense hot vape at 75w that I'd get on the crown v1 at 90w. Flavor is better too, very clean taste. Chuffed with this tank fixes everything wrong with the rafale and the crown at a sensible price

This puts the cleito and crown v1 to shame but I think I need to get a tfv4 again cos I think it's comparable but doesn't need as much power

I just vaped a tank dry in temp mode and it did not burn, so these coils work better in tc than the 1st crown, despite still having nickel legs by the looks of it

What! I've got just 2 original iSticks (both over a year old), with a couple of Nautilus... am I the original dinosaur? (I think I've asked this question before, with some appropriate responses )

If that suits you Raffles, then who am I to argue, until recently I was at home nearly 24/7 as a carer and just a couple of mods would have driven me mad, I chain vaped from one to the next with a different flavour in each, I'm slowly cutting back on the cheaper Chinese offerings now that I am getting out and about a lot more.

Ok now the issues start. Used the 0.25 over the weekend and it was superb. Then on monday the wierdness started. It's like a combination of hotspot and dry hit taste. Put the 0.5 in today was great all day got home and it crapped out the same way. Sr vapes are kindly sending me some rafale coils as they have no crown 2 ones yet. So may be worth holding off, but you can use rafale coils. You could possibly even switch the bottom pins if you want the same airflow. Annoyed but it's not the end of the world

It's the coils apparently the bottom of the coil touches the 510 pin causing issues. DJLsb vapes has just posted his review on it.

Rafale coils are beasts in this, think I prefer them to the actual crown 2 coils
