SmokTech Octopus Review

NOTICE: OBJECTS IN PICTURES ARE SMALLER THAN THEY APPEAR

---

So this is a review and a documentary.  It's a review, because you're going to learn a lot about the SmokTech Octopus Dripper and it's a documentary, because this is my FIRST RDA and even though I've learned a lot from using Genesis style atomizers, working with a dripper (as I'm told) is a whole new experience.

 

Upcoming Reviews for June 2013 - Update 2

So yeah, umm, June 2013 is really shaping up to be a ridiculously busy month!

Upcoming Reviews:

1. 4 eLiquids from Uno Vapor

2. 4 eLiquids from Mount Baker Vapor

3. You're not going to believe me, but I swear it's true --> 36 eLiquids from NicoPure
**I still need to check the count on that though...
***Count confirmed, only one duplicate in the bunch...
****This one may not appear until July 2013 for obvious reasons...

4. I just checked and my SM2.0 will be here TODAY!  So there's that coming up...

Update 6/14/2013 - Ok, so just so we're clear....  This RDA is narrower than a U.S. Penny. I will NOT be reviewing this right now.  It's going into my gear box and it's going to have to wait for me to get out my microscope, so that I can build it.

5. The Sigelei Mechanical Mod #19 will be up soon too...

Update 8/23/2013: If by "soon", I meant "2 months later", then it's finally UP!  LOL  Catch the Sigelei #19 Review HERE!

6. Added 6/14/2013: Since I discovered that the SM2.0 is about the size of a standard drip-tip, I'll be reviewing the SmokTech Octopus instead!  No microscope required!

Update 8/23/2013: The SmokTech Octopus Review is finally UP!

Sheesh!

If you appreciate what I'm doing here, you know what to do....

Review: 3 eLiquids from Alien Visions

UPDATE: Please participate in our anonymous POLL.  It's for a really good cause!

Even with the AVE website running amuck, Alien Visions is still managing to at least get some orders out the door. ^_^

In this review, I'm hoping to find out if Boba's Bounty is a fluke, or if Alien Visions actually has what it takes to be THE go-to guys for eLiquid.  In the spirit of full disclosure, one of these eLiquids is SOLD BY AVE, not made by them.

Upcoming Reviews for June 2013 - Update

A couple of months ago, I mentioned that I was going to be doing an 18650/18350 Battery review.  Truth is, there's just too much misinformation out there regarding batteries.  Time permitting I should be able to get this one up by the end of this weekend.

Batteries being reviewed:

· Samsung ICR18650-26F (unprotected)
· Samsung ICR18650-30B (protected)
· TrustFire 18650 - 3000mAh (protected)
· EFest 18350 - 800mAh V2 (unprotected)

Update 6/8/2013 - The Battery Review is UP

Next, I'm still working on the Sigelei #19 review.  Out of the box, it leaves a little to be desired.  HOWEVER, I have a neat idea that I haven't seen anyone else try yet that MIGHT actually make this an awesome mod.  Keep your eyes peeled!

My 3 new eLiquids from Alien Visions are in the mail and on their way!  Does AVE have what it takes to make everything delicious, or is Boba's Bounty a fluke?

eLiquids being reviewed:

· Dreamberries
· Watermelon Overload
· Grape Vape

Update 6/11/2013 - The Alien Visions Review is UP

I decided that I needed an RDA (a dripping type of rebuildable atomizer) to be able to get all of the nuances of the different flavored eJuices that I'm reviewing.  I've got an SM2.0 (also referred to as an SM20) on its way from China, and I've got to tell you that I'm really looking forward to this build!  Can anything really taste any better than my Kanger Protank?  We'll just have to see!  I can confirm that it's on its way here and hopefully I'll have it in my hands by the end of this coming week!

So due to a decision I made a week ago, the CCVapes.com eLiquid review has been delayed and will appear on this Blog either 5/31/2013 or during the month of June...

Update 5/31/2013: The CCVapes Review is up!.

Upcoming review #1: Sigelei Mechanical Mod #19

Upcoming review #2: I'll also be doing a re-visit on the Kanger ProTank.

Update 6/3/2013: The ProTank followup is now online Here!

Upcoming review #3: I'll be reviewing 3 different Dekang fruit flavored eLiquids, right off the boat from China.  I've had an excellent experience with the Tobacco flavors, I'm very interested in how well they pull off fruity flavors.  At $6 for 30ml's it's hard to pass up the opportunity.  If they're good, I'll be thrilled.  If not, I can't compain...

Update 6/2/2013: The Dekang review is now online Here!  And I did complain!  :)

Upcoming review #4: 3 new eLiquids from Alien Visions!  They're back online again!  If they can only get their website issues sorted out...  Does AVE have what it takes to make everything delicious, or is Boba's Bounty a fluke?

Update 6/11/2013: The AVE review is now online... Catch it HERE!

Upcoming review #5: I decided that I needed an RDA (a dripping type of rebuildable atomizer) to be able to get all of the nuances of the different flavored eJuices that I'm reviewing.  I've got an SM2.0 (also referred to as an SM20) on its way from China, and I've got to tell you that I'm really looking forward to this build!  Can anything really taste any better than my Kanger Protank?  We'll just have to see!
