My prize from the Beater Challenge (#1) was the Wotofo Warrior RDA. I wasn't a big RDA user in the past. But I'm getting into them more and more thanks to this prize. @Paskal actually won the drawing but decided to give all the others a chance at it. My name came up on the next roll. It was a nice gesture and I very much appreciated it.

Update- I recieved a Wotofo Profile RDA. There was some kind of mix-up but that's fine. They also sent a ten pack of Framed Staple coils and a pack of cotton.

Update update- Annnnnnd the Serpent Elevate showed up as well. Also included was a big 30pack of their cotton and another pack of N80 Framed Staple coils. How cool is that!? Wotofo is awesome.

There was prizes given to the winning team of the DIY mixing challenge (Feb-2019). My team didn't win unfortunately. But @Heaven Gifts gave an extra $30 store credit code. My name was selected so I won it. Thanks again Heaven Gifts. You guys have been super!

Good luck to everyone in future challenges.

My win from the first Vu challenge we had here. Vapresso revenge kit. I really like this thing. And just had to get some new coils for it. So the two stock coils lasted me a month each coil. Thanks Vu, the challenge team, and all the great sponsorship that has been placed. The challenge that just closed up I was fortunate enough to win a serpent Elevate. Can't wait to try it. And another win of a mesh pro tank. Which will make my 4th. Woo-hoo

My comment was meant to be totally tongue in cheek ... I've been at this for some time now and have more stuff collected than I know what to do with. I just wish I had more time to join in with you guys and gals. :)

In WOTSIT Challenge I won EHPro Fusion KIt as well. Haven't tried the RDTA yet but have used the mod. Works well. You can navigate through modes by clicking fire button / without going into a settings menu. :)

Also won 2 rolls in APIWATW Challenge. Yes ! 2 !!
First is FeeeMax Mesh Pro. I haven't used FreeMax, or mesh anything, and this tank/coils are well regarded for flavor and coil life.
It may replace an emergency sub ohm I keep in the car unless I like it enough to buy it's coils. Huge upgrade to what's in there now.
Thank You again @Heaven Gifts https://www.heavengifts.com/product/Freemax-Mesh-Pro-Tank.html

Second is...CoilArt Mage Mech V2. I believe it only comes as a stacked kit, with plenty of extras like, 2nd style button, 2 series contacts, and springs of different tension. Insulated top and battery insulation built in the cylinders. Silver plated contacts. Brass construction with black electroplating(not ceracoat). A review says it's v drop is .53, which apparently is real good. I've never owned a tube mech and being lucky enough to win this only 1, is fantastic, esp since I've been contemplating a dedicated dripper for a while now. :bliss:
Thanks to @CoilART vapor for sponsoring and the mod.

Nice! You really cleaned up this time 'round. Mesh Pro is solid. I think you'll be impressed, atleast a little :D. I got a pink one and love it. I bought a pack of the triple coils and they really last a long time. Hope ya like your Mage kit as well.

@OmagaWright I finally loaded up my Tigon. I started using the stick only, yesterday and was really enjoying that. Been a minute since I've used an internal batt mod, especially one where you can't at least adjust the voltage, but I can totally see me using this. After running errands today, I loaded up the tank with the .4 coil. I checked it on another mod, it ohms out at .6-.7. It feels hotter than that to me, but I'm used to wrapping between .8 to 1.2 with 26g wire, being a MTLer with an airy or restricted DL tank. I normally like a cooler vape, with longer draws.

Results:

Though warmer than I usually would go for, with this coil, the flavor is outstanding!! Great vapor production with this one, too. I can't yet speak as to how soon I'll need to fill it again, but wanted to post this back to you. I have the airflow with the widest slot pretty much all the way open, and that draw is good for me, still drawing like MTL. Even if I use the little holes for the airflow, with setting that to all holes visible, the draw is much to my liking.

I haven't purchased ready to vape coils in a few years, now, but I really can see doing so with this. I love how they load. Push in, close it up. Pretty cool in that.

The only con I've found, thus far, is the fill port. Though it's not difficult to use, unless you're using one of those really skinny tipped dropper bottles, this could be a mess to fill. I think I'd rather the cap just screw off. Not a deal breaker, though.

The drip tip......... LOVE it. I'm using the shorter one and I absolutely LOVE it.

@Aspiretina, thank you very much for sponsoring this contest, and for getting this to me so quickly. I really do enjoy this one. Thumbs up to you and your team on the Tigon. <3

Thanks, as always, to the Challenge Team, for all your efforts for making such great fun for all of us. You have definitely brought some groups of people together that might not have spent much time chatting before. It's been a great deal of fun for me. :hug:

Huck, I wasnt able to try out my Tigon unfortunately. Had a supervisor from anothet department tryin to quit and bought himself an iJoy iJust3 to try out. Needless to say it was too much vapor production for him to handle so I offered my Tigon to give him that much needed MTL that he was lookin for. For the past few days he's been using it religiously and hasnt gone back to smoking.

So while I wasnt able to enjoy my prize, I did get the satisfaction that it went to somebody who could really use it.

Your review of the Tigon hit all the points I would have made about it. Built nicely, drip tips were pretty sweet, and the lockin mechanism was very well thought out. That fill port was too small for anybody usin the fat part of a unicorn bottle. But overall really solid piece of equipment.

@Aspiretina thanks again for bein a sponsor of these challenges. Been lovin yalls products since I first started years ago and cant wait to see what new stuff yall come up with next.

Cant wait to try out the Sahara RDA which is somewhere out there on the way. And still lookin to get the super secret ultra rare prize, assumin Kingpin didnt forget about those prizes lol :D

Hello Huck,
Thank you so much for the detailed review.
I will pass your suggestion to our products development department.
For the 0.4ohm coil, it shows 0.6-0.7ohm on another box mod of you, you need to consider the internal resistance in the box mod, if you have other box mods with you, you can try it on those mods, and see what is the resistance?

Best Regards

Thanks to sponsors @CoilART vapor and @Heaven Gifts for sponsoring and fast shipping. Both arrived here in Arizona 10 days from ship date.
Thank you to the challenge Team for putting it all together.
From HG is Freemax Mesh Pro. First sub ohm tank I've vaped in a long time, first mesh too, and sub ohm's have came a long ways in the last year. Really good flavor.
Another first for me is from CoilArt, Mage Mech V2.0 Stacked Edition. Has silver plated contacts, insulated cylinders, SS or clear button, different springs depending on the throw you want...A lot of accessories.

Challenge #4 the APITAW: I was lucky enough to win CSVape Sahara RDA and Vapefly Core RTA. Thank you @Vapefly Official and CSVape For sponsoring these challenges and for supporting this community.

I haven't put a build in the Core yet. Probably be tomorrow.

Vapefly Core RTA by Wayne, on Flickr

The Sahara RDA is one bangin little atomizer. It's a very unconventional build deck but talk about flavor. I wasn't expecting how good this thing is. IT's found a home in my daily rotation. Worth buying another mod for it to live on.

So I finally got around to setting up my Sahara RDA. I am no expert in RDAs and when I set mine up I played around with it a little and went rogue. And so, I reused a factory mesh coil from a factory coil I had taken out. I havent had clouds this thick since I used a Sense Blazer Game Changer. And I am surprised the flavor is more outstanding than my Profile RDA that I picked up a few days ago. If I can pick up a smaller factory coil I might do a write up on what I did (if anybody is interested).

A big thanks to the challenge team for the chance to win this great rda I might otherwise have missed out and a thanks to @3CVAPE Official for the awesome RDA they put out and for sponsoring our challenges.

Pics below of a little what I did.20190321_183055.jpg 20190321_184809.jpg The tails found in those factory coils are the key to lettin me do this. And yes that first pic is the gunky old coil, and the second is after I cleaned it and how the cotton got put in.
