1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    I won't take you up on that. I can give the Nautilus coils a quick prime, fill tank, leave for ten minutes and great from the off. The coils on the Subtank Mini, I have to be much more careful with. After longer priming and more time standing in a full tank, I very gradually step up the wattage. They still only last half as long as the Nautilus coils. Find something I like and I tend to stick with it (motorbikes, cars, wives).

    Yep...I usually start mine off at 8.5 watts for a few vapes, then 9.5 watts, 10.5 watts, etc. Not sure it makes any difference but I like to think it helps to break in a new coil. :)

    I saw it at P. Busardo's channel, for those interested in the T18 take a silver one. The color models have an issue with sticking in button.

    Some how I doubt that it (or any more Innokin product for that matter) will be available locally :sad:.

    Vic (Vaping with) was still using his a few weeks after his review of it (a black one) and didn't mention anything about it...so maybe only the early ones?

    Why do you say that?

    Innokin recognized the problem and promised to resolve it. Its the paint that made the case opening a bit smaller than it should be.

    Doesn't seems to be a brand that do well with local vendors here I think. The last Innokin product that I saw locally was the iSub G tank and that was many many months ago. Innokin released the Apex after that but none of the local vendors I talked to had any plan to carry it so I got one from a mate in Australia instead. Innokin recently released/announced a bunch of new products recently; Endura T18 & T22, Cortex mod & kit, CoolFire IV Plus, 5ml version of the Apex, iSub S tank as well as a bunch of new iSub coils & RBA and so on ... and I don't see them listed as coming soon on a single local shops that I browse through on a daily basis.

    Compare that to another brand like ... lets say Joyetech, the Cubis/Cuboid was announced only just a short while back and many shops said that they will have them instock by the third week of this month ... if not sooner.

    Edited

    Similar beginner kit that was released at the same time like Kanger SUBVOD is already available locally as well.

    The pace of change seems to be so fast that some dud products will get out in the race to be first with something. So I'll plod along a few months behind with tried and tested stuff, and save money as well. The Emow Mega Kit was a mistake, but Indoorsmokers had pointed out the tight draw. Battery fine though.

    Just to go back to the T18, I've been using a Black one since 20 Dec. No problem. I've got 2 more in the post. Fcucking awesome.

    Another possible starter kit is the new Eleaf Basic with the GS Air2 tank, check it out, I'm using that and the T18 exclusively at the moment. The GS Air is much more airy than the T18 (which has no way to adjust the air flow, but is great for MTL)

    I'm tempted to have a go at the T22 when they come out (still on pre order @ Cvapor at the mo) especially if I have to go and do a bit of work outside of Thailand again

    The Prism Coils are pretty awesome--plenty of vapour--the larger tank would definitely be a bonus--but the bigger battery starts to look like all the other Mods--I sort of like the retro E Cig type look of the smaller battery--mind you, if staying power is a must then go for the bigger boy--the T18 battery lasts about a day with heavy use.

    Yeah would want the bigger battery and tank capacity...plus at $33.20 (Innokin ENDURA T22 Starter Kit with 4ml and 2000mah Capacity - Cvapor.com) it wouldn't break my heart if got seized by UAE customs

    Do they have a code at the moment? Even so, that's a great price, that tank will be awesome, the little one is excellent.
