China have probably already got the temperature coefficient of one of these and know what the element metal is already.If I were them I would be selling them everywhere NOW

This thread, page 2-3 with e packet was a little over £75 is where I got mine. The RX was alright for a while then kept telling me atomiser too low every few puffs regardless of wire type/tank, all well within range. Cleaned 510, took batteries our, gave it last warning, didn't listen so bin it went. OK. Been onto Robby about this. No stock unfortunately. Chip shortage but they will be back in stock, been checking the site every day.

£80 for a one off payment + cotton - which most of us have kicking about anyway. Stock coil = £2.50-£3 (inc postage) - £80/3 = 26.67 - so say 6 months of stock heads at one a week This coil offers a years 'guarantee' - even if the cCells are 'safe' and last 2 weeks that's the break even point. If and when this drops to the £50 price point or below - it has started to make savings for the average vaper. Really hoping that they come to the Shenzhen Ecig Expo so i can try one out It will be a lot cheaper than that, stamp the element out of sheets of nickel or whatever, encase it in the heat resistant material , mass produce it and it will be pence to make

Im no technician but i would have thought that if you have 2 bits of wire dangling out of this chip as soon as you put power through it the wire leads will pop like fuse wire. Just the same as a .5 ohm coil lead, or even thicker for no rez, not a problem

Stick a couple of wires on it and it should be usable in a dripper.

Very little metal contact with the juice as well, if the enclosing material is safe it looks like a winner. Price will plummet pretty quickly I would think. Doesn`t look that difficult to make or clone. Someone will probably make one with wire contacts to use in existing atties as well.

I'm beginning to think that TW are trying to tie up the UK supply on many of the popular Chinese manufacturers. They also have a lock on eLeaf products which is restricting many of the decent Chinese sellers from selling to the UK. Fortunately for us there are a few who are obviously selling on the gray market, giving us a choice. Which TW seem hell bent on restricting for their own profit, not the benefit of vapers. While I support their legal challenge, they are doing it for their own benefit first and foremost. Absolutely, typical TW tactics, they have been doing this for years. Pure self interest. Like their TPD challenge, calculated massive publicity and marketing in my opinion.

Cheers catface26 - use whatever browser works tbh - fiirefox, chrome or Oprah - and Strongvpn - which is good, most of the time. Think the Vaporesso must have been maintenance - just weird timing The same thing happened to me a couple of times yesterday, probably down to the increased interest and number of hits they have been receiving after the rumours started circulating.

I saw in VapnFagan's review that the coil head contains some cotton too, so not all ceramic so the coil is wrapped in cotton then with ceramic around it, it seems. So I wonder if anything found in the report could be either the ceramic or the cotton or even the nickel wire, rubber insulator. Would be good if they did a side by side test with a coil from another manufacturer too to compare such as a nickel head or kanthal head. Its possible to test the coil they have to test differently than a kanthal head since it uses nickel wire so needs to be below a certain temperature. The ceramic material appears to be a really good carrier for the liquid, in fact too good. The cotton is there to slow it down a little by the look of it and act as a slight barrier to juice feed to prevent flooding which it does very well in my limited experience of the coil head. It is not in the middle of the coil head which is where the coil and main heat source for the liquid is.
