I have been getting Vape stuff in all week and the Mailman dumps it in the box quickly now because I have been standing out there all week and I think it makes him nervous......

First look at the Cthulhu V2
- Thread starter StanM
- Start date
Interesting...I'm curious what it could be. Of course, I'd like to get my hands on just the V2 given that the USPS isn't being forthcoming with tracking info. However, if they were able to nail down a truly modular tank with future development, that would be awesome.
Yes they do.Bear my children...
Does Smog Distro ship from the US? Never used them.
WHAT my shipping info just updated and says ETA is set for Friday!!!!!!!!!
Ok so what is going to be or was the first juice everyone is going to try in this? I am thinking a locally made pumpkin pie Flavor seeing as it's that time of year.
One hit wonder muffin man. I need more ti too.
I just got 15 feet of Spider Silk in the other day for it.
we are working on a 3 coils vertical coil deck

Got my tracking number.
LOL enjoy @Dark Laughter
We will all be waiting to hear your thoughts and impressions on this much anticipated RTA
Noooooo!
before I give a full review I want to run it a few days I hate jumping into a this is the greatest thing ever on day one but that being said I can say I am enjoying it on day one the airflow is on par with a lot or my RDA's as for cloud's it puts out, the flavor I'm still trying to dial in and I am using the dual deck right now with Kanthal mainly because I had stuff I needed to do around town today and I can hammer out coils all day everyday, tomorrow I'll play with the single coil deck and a Ti build for temp control the one thing I am not a real big fan of is the wick ring it's kind of a pain in the ass to get on so far the best thing I have found is to just leave it on and tuck your wick into it don't even bother taking it off and don't try to pack the whole wick in it just the bottom half or your going to get burnt hits because it does restrict the flow to much..... Alright boys and girls I am out of here for the night and I'll give you a final verdict in a few days!

Lmao, running single coil ss, saving the dusk deck for tomorrow, kinda digging it, more airflow than the lemo had and it really is ideally what I was looking for, still lying to dial in the power/lunch and preheat and all that poopoo stuff, but so far I'm a happy cramper with it!!!
In the mailbox. About to tear the door down. Build coming soon
it has been a little tricky I have found the wicking to be hard to dial in so far the best thing I have found is Japanese cotton cut a little past the wick ring then to fluff it just like you would do with an RDA, then only put half that into the channel leaving the other half on top of the deck, when filling it to turn the juice flow all the way down so it doesn't flood the deck and then open it back up once everything is screwed back together it's hard to explain after I go flying tomorrow I might do another build with lots of pictures this way maybe I can help someone out or someone can tell me some better ways!!!
I didn't want to say much until others got theirs. I've had major flooding too. Several times I've had a whole tank ooze. The juice control is your best friend. I thought it was worthless until I figured it out and got it working. Always close the juice flow before you do anything. Refill, build or whatever. It will lose all its suction otherwise. After you refill and put the top cap on, it pushes down on the juice with a good bit if force which will open the flood gates and you can't stop them. I suggest going to youtube and watching their juice control vid. Screw it all the way to the left until you can no longer move it. It's closed completely then. I don't like the texture of the control ring especially when it gets wet. Builds work wonderfully. Best tank I've used building wise, but juice control is a major issue. A billow v2 with velocity post would top this. Not gonna lie, I'm very interested in the tri coil deck. Oh and definitely wick this well.

Have you had any luck getting it to wick in singel coil mode?
It seems to wanna flood in dual coil and dry hit in single coil.
Yeah that doesn't look good. I'd contact the seller and ask for a replacement. I was really interested in this RTA, but decided to wait for some feedback. It's not sounding too good atm. Good luck!
Cheers,

I was super excited about it!! And my first build went flawlessly .... after that its been a pain in my ass.
Could just be my brain injury though, the erlkoenigin was the same way then became my favoritist tank for a good while so it still has a chance, loll
I took the cotton ring off and that helped a bunch. You can stuff enough cotton for it to wick properly afterwards

Huh? You took off that little thingy that stops the wick from flom floating out of the juice channel?
Do you stuff the channel or just bring the wick to the base just over the channel?

I must say it is f'n awesome if you learn to deal with the potential of juice leaking. Now I'm really gonna invest in a rda with velocity posts. Probably the biggest advancement in vaping since temp control

I gotta be honest. They didn't pay me to post nice. This is the absolute hardest to work with tank I've ever used. I'd pass if you haven't brought one. Everything is just too difficult. Earlier I had to use pliers to separate the deck from the tank. Looks like I have to do it again. My billow never got stuck together. The only other tank I've had like this was the Zephyrus

Nice to know its not just me, I dont see myself using this much at all, it's just to much of a pain in the ass, that juice control slips out of place is in try and bottom fill and when I shut it off to top fill I get a mod that's wetter than a Nunn at a 'magic mike' showing.
I started greasing the juice control o rings with juice and they work a lot better but that's a temporary fix. I'm gonna have to find smaller or smoother o rings or this collects dust

Mine is still leaking like the titanic, its been disassembled, scrubbed, dried, reassembled and lubed twice today.
Its put in hiding until tomorrow night and if it still won't work right its going n the box next to the other crap the won't get used again.... right next to my provari
Thats,such a bummer to hear. I was looking forward to this and was hoping it may dethrone my billows v2. Glad I waited for others to see if it was too good to be true. It's disappointing

This tank is wonderful in practice. Has everything you could want. I just feel the way it was designed is a major issue. Hell, the Goliaths juice control would have made this a superior tank. I brought a 15 ml bottle yesterday at the vape lounge and most of the oozed out the tank.

Exactly!/!!!!!! totally love the concept!!!! Its exactly what I have wanted in a tank for a good while now.
The execution though...waaaaaaaaaa
The two piece juice control is the ultimate killer Imho

Interesting...I've had similar experiences, but not to the same level as it seems everyone else. Granted, my first fill leaked like a sinking U-boat as I hadn't tightened the juice control all the way; but since then, it appears under control with only an occasional air-cooled VW level of leakage. So far I've only run the velocity deck with the coils that were included (I was too excited to build, and wanted to get it running) which come in at 0.33Ω...and its been a great vape so far through three tanks. Though I have to agree it's a fiddly tank with a steep learning curve primarily owing to the juice control ring...even after figuring out to close it when adding juice, there still seemed to be leakage particularly around the upper o-ring...nothing serious, and just a level of juice costantly under the tank between it, and the mod..just a small amount. I don't know..perhaps in all my excitement I'm really willing this tank to work, and mentally glossing it over. I'm planning on a disassemble this evening and giving the single coil with a TC setup a go, and see if I eat my words.
