Ok so got my Boreas in today:bliss:
Black edition.
Love it so far BUT one thing is driving me crazy. The afc/juice flow control gets almost stuck at the last airhole. It takes a good tourqe to get it all the way open and also back. Which of cource loses the part at the bottom that holds the deck:mad: or if I do it the wrong way I risk taking the glass tank part off. I'm hoping whatever it is loosens up. Everything is all "lubed" up.

Just got my black one. Get a load of what I found when I opened the bag.

The spare glass is in a million pieces. I got the tank out of the wreckage and it survived. Pulled it apart and the orings are good, even on the second deck. The bottom oring of the drip tip had a little shaving peeled off, but it's still intact. The 2.0 deck does have one post leaning a little.

I don't know if it will do any good to write STS, and try to send the pics, or not.

My Velocity has the lean also. I think it is normal with that style deck. I believe it is always the one that has the insulator under it that leans. I think it leans due to the tightening on the screw holding the post down.

I already wrote them and got a response back! They are shipping out spare glasses next week. He said to remind him Monday or Tuesday and he'll get one right out to me. STS is the tops in my book. Super fast response to emails.

I can't believe this would have shipped from STS like this, although the envelope didn't look bad at all, this was crush damage. It's too visible and I know they wouldn't have sent it looking as bad as it did. I'm just glad the tank itself was good. I've already washed it, coiled it and vaping it!

Well I just watched a review from a small time British reviewer and he said that even though he stuck in some clapton coils to keep them a try. he then went on to say he wouldn't recommend using them in this tank.!!!
:gaah:

I think either he should stop the reviewing lark or get himself down on some forums and read up on this tank.
And sorry mate if you are a member of this forum, but in my opinion he is definitely 100 percent wrong :D
This tank I believe is ideal for these type of coils. :)

Sorry for the rant people :D

Nope the thin bubble envelope isn't enough to protect it at all lol.

Definitely can take some big builds. A lot of the vids I watched had people using claptons with no issues. I plan on trying some fused claptons in mine when it arrives.

I guess claptons aren’t for everybody but it’s all I’ve used in the Boreas.

So after running a full tank have to say this RTA is the bees knees:D. That afc ring is still tight. It's like it's getting stuck on something on thag 4th hole but I don't know what it could possibly be. Might be something with the paint. Wish I ordered the SS now. I can feel when I get past it either way it goes smooth. Looked at all the pieces and can't find out for the life of me what it is. Maybe whatever is going on will grind down or soemthing eventually

May just be a small burr on the inside of one of the holes.

I'm just curious how a "semi wealthy" person such as yourself "had to sell your supreme to buy juice"?

Sent from my LG-H901 using Tapatalk

At no point did I say I "had" to sell the Supreme, I sold it to buy juice because it helped. My definition of semi wealthy is the $73,000 a year I make. It's definitely more money I've ever seen in my entire life, but if I'm not going to use something anymore I typically sell it. Woo, people just love jumping on my ass, this is gonna be fun son.

For future reference, if you're literally going to quote something, get the quote right, especially when it's RIGHT about your post. :crazy: You mentioned one post and quoted an entirely different one.
