Billow V2 Nano: First Impressions

[vuJim]

Unboxing

Just kidding

(Tho I gotta say: In the world of atomizer packaging, EHPro and Eciggity got this one right. The packaging is no more complicated than it need be.)

Nano-Review from A Newb

Seems very well-built. It's heavy. Juiced-up: I think it might be heavier than my Joyetech eVic-VTC Mini--battery and all. For my first build: Re-purposed the coils I built last night for my ill-fated OBS Crius: Eight turns or 28 ga. Kanthal at 2.5 mm. Came out to 0.72Ω, just like they did before. Took a little tweaking. This deck is a lot more fiddly to build on than was the Crius. But I eventually got both coils right where I wanted them, glowing evenly and in sync with one another. Wicking, likewise, was a bit more fiddly. Using Native Wicks, I filled the juice channels lightly and trimmed the rest off even with the edge of the deck. The little collar went on around the deck, without complaint, first time. Primed the wicks and gave 'er a test fire. "Hmmm... Doesn't seem to be much vapour happening. Oh well..." Carried on. Filled the tank with Grand Rapids E-Liquid's Blue Hawaiian 50/50. (Never really thought of how appropriate it was to use that juice on this tank's maiden vape, until after the fact.) Put 'er together.

I must say I really like the vape out of this tank. I don't like a real airy draw, and this tank, with the airflow wide open, provides just the amount of restriction I like in a direct inhale vape. But what I really like is the vape is about near to perfect as I could ask for! Enough vapour to get a satisfying lung hit, but not too much. Nice and warm, without being too warm, at 25W. Vape is dense and full of flavour. Mmmmm... Prior to this tank, I think my favourite vape was on my Tobeco Super Tank Mini. I may have a new favourite.

I'm gonna spend the evening with this tank. Hopefully won't fall so much in love with the vape I get a complaint from my wife

You know its funny you posted this. I literally just recieved mine last night (thanks @Nailz )

I have been all for my Goblin Mini, I love the way it looks, the size, vapor production, and taste. Its absolutely perfect for me on a Mech on the go.

BUT

The Billow V2 has quickly become its equal in everything except size.

I like the asthetics, the build quality and finish is top notch, the deck is the same as the GM pretty much, NO leaking or condensation build up like what occurs under the GM, and the flavor is exceptional!

Glad youre enjoying yours as well!
Im ordering the Nano kit, as Im hoping this will make the flavor even more intense.

Its on top of my VTC right now @ .28 / 62w

Alright, just got evic vtc box and has mega tank with it.... Looking to grab a billow v2 but noob Ignace question is atomizer doesn't matter what wire you use? So long as box has ti, ni, ss, can you use either wire to build on the rda/t?

Also, familiar with Android forums, so apologize in advance if wrong place to ask. Just joined forum to ask this question and saw you posting about billow v2 mini, thought it be good place to start haha

No, it doesn't matter what wire you use, as long as the mod supports it, and the eVic-VTC Mini supports them all. That's what I'm using.

Nice! Thank I'm gonna grab the black billow v2 then.... See how that goes. Anyone suggest otherwise?

Mind you:This thread, and my comments, refer to the Billow v2 Nano. I, personally, cannot speak to the full-size Billow v2.

 

[BadLuckAndTrouble]

I have the full size.
Im diggin it.

Though I do plan on getting the Nano chimney and glass to convert it.

The Nano will be shorter, hold 3ml, and more than likely have more saturated flavor.

Mines taller, and still has great flavor, holds 5ml.

I've got a new one I ordered accidentally. I'll sell it to you for five bucks if you come pick it up. :l

One trip to Bakersfield was enough Cali for me lol.

I got one and is great, but not for a 50/50 in my opinion. Tried to set it with a ni200 wire but the evic didn't appreciate, it didn't work, atomiser low she said.
