IJOY GENIE PD270 Kit - Light Up Your Vaping World

There is almost no one in the world like to be living in the dark even for the blind ones, they want to regain their sight and see the bright world. Yes, the world is more beautiful with lights on especially in the dark night. LED lights and neon lights now are widely used to make the buildings and streets more shinning in the night. LED with a lot of functions not only as a decoration, an indicator or just its original function as a light has been widely applied in our daily life. E-cigar also make full use of the LED. Today, I am going to introduce you an e-cigar fully utilizing the LED.

Unlike most of the other vape kit using the LED as a indicator mostly to show the remaining battery level so as to inform you in time that your battery needs to be charge, the IJOY GENIE PD270 has exploits the usage of LED by not only use it as an indicator but also a fashionable decoration. I do not know whether you have noticed that there is a transparent curve on the body of the GENIE PD270 kit.

You may wonder what is the function of this design. Actually, this curved line is only a decoration to the whole boring e-cigar. This RGB backlight have five colors(red, blue, green, white, colorful). You can see different styles through the digital color separation technical, which will add great fun to your long and tedious vaping life. This is not the only application of LED. The LED is also applied in a flashlight control button on the battery door. This can also acted as a flashlight when you are walking in the dark or looking for something in the dark. It is really convenient!

The IJOY GENIE PD270 fully utilizes the LED.

Box Mods and Tube Mods, Which One is Better For You

Beginners might want to know about the different of box mods and tube mods. This is a very popular discussion in the vaping community.

Box mods and tube mods are the two types of mods currently available in the market. Tube Mod, also known as a mechanical mod, is a simple device that holds the battery and button in place to supply current to the atomizer. The box mod, as its name implies, is shaped like a box and has a rather complicated design with various electronic circuits and wiring inside. Not only are the two mods different in their build and structure, they are also unique in how they affect your vaping experience.

To help you clearly see which one may be better for you, here are some of the advantages, disadvantages, and comparisons based on several important criteria:

Size:
If you are looking for simplicity and portability, there is no doubt that tube mods are the better choice. They are only 4 to 6 inches in length, which are a good choice for those who are uncomfortable with bulky devices.

Lifespan:
Given its design, you might think that the box mod will beat its tubed counterpart when it comes to durability. However, it is important to understand that the wooden or aluminum structure of the box mod makes it more vulnerable to physical damage than the tube mod which is commonly made out of steel, brass or copper.

Battery Life
The box mod can contain electronics specifically designed to reduce current usage. This leads to the minimization of battery life. Tube mod does not provide much power saving options

Price
Not surprisingly, the design of tube mod is simpler, the use of electronics is minimal, and its price is much lower than the boxed mod. That is, the price of the product depends very much on the brand you are buying, because the high-end tube mod may cost far more than a decent box mod of average make.

Safety
The safety of the product is of extreme importance when you are evaluating any vaping device. Users should never compromise with the safety of a vape mod. Box mods are designed to detect problems inside the device. They stop working once these problems are picked up. Furthermore, some box mods are built with thermal and reverse polarity protection technology, which makes them a much safer product than the tube mode that offers little to no safety options.

All in all, it is very difficult to separate the two in terms of quality. Your purchase ultimately comes down to your preferences and how you see the individual strengths and weaknesses of each vape mod.

One Button for All—SMOK Stick M17

When we use electronic devices, we will expect device to be simple and easy to use. Thus, easy operation has become crucial for customers to decide to buy it. With this need surging, many manufacturers have simplified their electronic products like iPad or smart phones that you can operate your devices only through touching the screen. For many e-cigars existing on the market, they are also easy to use through OLED screen or through one button. SMOK Stick M17 is a typical example for you can use this device through one button.

The principle of “one button for all” is very suitable for beginners for you can finish all the operations. If you want to turn on the device, you just need to press the button to start it. When you want to adjust levels of the e-cigar, it is also easy for you. With this design, there is no need for beginners to worry about that they will feel confused about different buttons. When they feel confused, some unnecessary mistakes will be made. By using SMOK Stick M17, those mistakes can be avoided to some extents. In addition, this button has combined the indicator function. This indicator will inform you some information, for example, if the light flashes 15 times, it suggest that the voltage is lower than 3.3V. This signal reminds you of charging the device in time. With one button, it is customer-oriented because they can notice some signals immediately and can operate easily.

One button design is based on the conciseness and simplicity. If you are a beginner, you can choose SMOK Stick M17 to meet your needs.

FUMYTECH WINDFORCE RTA Atomizer Launched

CYCLON, launched by FUMYTECH not long ago, has been known for its big clouds and exerted massive impact on e-cigarette circle. This time, FUMYTECH returns with its newest product called WINDFORCE RTA. This product is both big clouds oriented and good flavor oriented. Packaged in a big paper box, it is quite a box of fashion. From the information printed on the back side, WINDFORCE RTA is definitely a hulk among all the atomizers with a size of 25*63 mm.

WINDFORCE is made of stainless steel and comes with two versions. The difference between two versions lies in the liquid volume. There are 4ml and 4.5ml for you to choose. A kit includes a standby glass tank, an interface of 510, a tube, a deck for single coil, two screws, four staggered fused coils, several screws, cottons and sealing rings. I have to say that this kit is rich enough for DIY.

Poles are plated with gold, and every atomizer made by FUMYTECH has its own reference number. Electrodes and deck are connected by a screw that is plated with gold as well. It is very stable and helps avoid loose contact. A deck for dual coils applies the design of VELOCITY to its electrodes. Pole hole is big and available for all the four different coils.

Also, there is a deck for single deck in the kit which has an enough space for the using of differently staggered fused coil. This deck is equipped with particular air flow holes made for single coil. All these make it possible for single coil to generate big vapor and good flavor. Still, single coil can go with a drip tip of 510. A smaller caliber enables a high smoke strength. WINDFORCE makes the switch between single and dual coils come true with large clouds and enjoyable flavor. Besides, the cool design of exterior is also very appealing.

MERLIN Mini Atomizer Review

MERLIN is well a designed atomizer made by AUGVAPE. It is exquisite with an adjustable air intake mode which caters a wide range of needs of different vape players. First, I would like to give you a brief introduction about this product.

With a size of 24 mm, MERLIN has a silvery body. A bottom deck is designed for both single and dual coils. The material of battery poles are plated with gold and the specification of mouthpiece is 510. Besides, a mark for anti-counterfeiting check is right on the cap. After unpacking the parcel, you will detect an Allen key. There is no doubt that this atomizer requires Allen screw. The accessories with MERLIN are not many, the design of dual deck is the selling point of this atomizer. The price of this product is rational. Anyway, what customers care most is the property of the product.

MERLIN is somewhat an atomizer that generates massive clouds perfect for cloud chaster. Double electrodes allow users fix single fused coil alone. Both the screw holes and internal space is large. That means variously fused coils can be applied to MERLIN. It is very easy to thread cotton because the double electrodes make a room for that. But one thing you should keep in mind that there is a slit around the deck and you need to insert cotton in so as to avoid leaking oil. Then the performance in terms of delivering oil is also good.

The delivering is very smooth. And the oil hole is round and big enough. That makes users free of the worry of a slow oil moving. In addition, a rational structure of air intake makes a scientific inhale process and provide looser airflow. And as we all know, looser airflow and always generate big clouds as well as enjoyable flavor.
