WANTED: People for testing our new device

[ibalders]

Wouldn't mind trying out a turbo coil myself, so email JAC Vapour

[shiny]

Was going to wait and note the following on the feedback form JAC Vapour but then thought it may be more beneficial the earlier you were made aware of the following :-

The first time I charged the unit with the supplied USB lead, I noticed as I placed the unit down that the red light went out. I checked the USB plug was fully inserted into the VIM socket and as I moved it slightly left and right the red light flickered on and off.
For the time being I found a position for the red charging light to remain on and completed the charging of the battery.

The next time that I went to charge the battery as the same thing happened I decided to substitute the VIM USB lead for an Eleaf one which inserted with a more positive connection and the charging light remained on even with some shaking about of the unit.

Thinking I had isolated the fault to the VIM USB lead I then tried it on my Eleaf IStick Pico to confirm but no, the connection was positive and firm and charged perfectly.

So back into the VIM it went and if I touched the USB plug slightly on the left and then right it would start to self eject itself from the VIM socket.

Guess you will want the unit back to have a look, oh well 😔

Okay thanks, and good pickup on this, I will want the unit back, but I'll get you a new unit sent first, so wait until that arrives, when it does, contact customer service at [e-mail] and they give you a free post label, I'll let them know to expect and email from you. Will that be okay. If anybody else has a similar issue I'd like to know please.

JAC Vapour I will finish this tank of JAC Vapour Tobacco Menthol juice (loving this saltnic eliquid) and then clean and package the unit up ready for posting back.

  My turbo coils arrived...thank you JAC Vapour...can't wait to try them 

[tcg69]

Turbo coils arrived thank you @jac Vapour

[Perpetua]

Turbo coils arrived safely today, thank you Andy . . . . I'll just finish off my current bottle of eliquid with the old coil, then get testing!

[ibalders]

Well I've got good news and bad news, the good news is that I've now tried out the 0.5 Ohm coils and I was getting a lot better flavour from them than the 1.0 ohm coils the bad news is that I can no longer use this device as it has now emptied two lots of tanks on me while it was left standing.
I thought I may of had a dodgy seal on the coil but replacing it with another coil the tank emptied out on me again.

Shame I was getting to really like this little mod.

okay, are you definitely always going clockwise with the tank, so clockwise to lock and clockwise to unlock, going anticlockwise will cause the topfill cap to loosen, release pressure and in turn leak. The other issue that I have come across is you need to use a needle nose bottle, as a wide filling nozzle can move the topfill seal over, liquid then basically flows down the chimney. The seal is no attached to the top, it's a pressure seal so a wide tip nozzle can be squeezed in, but a part of the nozzle is filling direct into the chimney. You can check it's not an issue like the above by removing the tank and filling with a narrow nozzle, then leave to sit over night with the cap on firmly, if it doesn't leak then the tanks not actually leaking.

I've always locked the tank by turning it clockwise and filled up using a narrow syringe.
I did leave the tank standing over night by itself and it did not leak at all.
I have let the mod dry out over night, and after inserting another fresh coil I have been using it with no issues at all today, but I cannot understand why it emptied out on my twice in a row.

So now it's fingers crossed and hopefully no more leaks.

If the tank is not leaking when left to sit, then it's not the tank, or at least it doesn't suggest the tank, may try standing it on it's head tonight, see if that makes a difference. My guess is the topcap was somehow not sealed, and if it doesn't seal then the pressure will allow a leak, it happened to my CEO once, and he handed me the tank and it was loose by about quarter of a turn, I tightened it up and no issues, been using the tank myself since. let me know how you get on.

Has anyone tried their Turbo coils yet?

I'm curious to know how you've found them . . . . .

[tcg69]

Perpetua I have tried all three coils now the turbo coils are a lot better than the 1.Ohm for flavour but the best one for me is the 0.5 Ohm great flavour and good Vapour production.
If anyone didn't get a turbo coil and would like to try one I have one spare.

[stu1873]

Turbo coils are best for flavour. I used mine with the airhole open and was getting a great vape from it. Had two tanks of juice through it and the coil is goosed. Could well be my fault but the others lasted longer than the Turbo.

Going to try the other one and see how i get on with it.

I have been liking the MTL and DL coils. I find the falvour on the MTL the best from the 2 with the airflow adapter on. The DL ones with the airflow open are a nice restrictive lung hit but the battery doesn't last long on them.

[Perpetua]

Interesting, thank you gents.

I loved the 1.0ohm coil . . . . then tried the 0.5ohm, which I think I love just a teeny bit more despite obviously having to refill more regularly.

The Turbo coils were just too harsh for my throat, even with the airflow open, I could only manage a couple of puffs - so mine are also available to be passed on if anyone would like them.
