Does anyone have this? I have many mods and I just want something simple. And I like the features. How does it perform? How long does the Pcc last? How long does it take to charge batteries and Pcc?
meh, just read through this, sorry if its a bit of a read and get a bit non specific but I guess people who read this might be interested in how it performs for new folk as well as mod fans like yourself
Got one last Saturday from the shop, I am actually waiting for another for my Mum to come through the post.
My pcc charges overnight so I am not 100% on exactly how long it takes. The PCC charges a dead battery in an hour, and I do not use a battery in an hour so it is more than enough for me. I nearly caught up with it once but the thing just finished in time. I was puffing away like a crazy man though trying to adjust and test. I will let the PPC run flat, and give it a good test.. ie count how many charges it can really do. Expect some results in a day or so. However, in saying that the PCC itself has a USB lead, so even if you were the sort to hit it so hard that you caused it to flatten then you should be able to recharge it fairly easy. The PCC does seem to be able to charge a microlite battery whilst the PCC is being charged, however just to make sure I will let it run down flat and put a flat microlite battery in it. I stuck a multimeter on it the other day and I calculated 5 watts (not tested under load though) is potentially/roughly what the carto uses. I use a 70/30 PG/VG mix and get decent throat and vapour off it, it feels more than 5 watts, maybe it is the inverse square law skewing things a little as the cartos are small and right infront of your lips, but thats just a guess. I have been alternating between two cartos, neither have failed yet.
I did find the cartos I have been using, and refilling, were sometimes getting a little hot. However I found that tightening it so it only just locked on with the a finger tips only tightness gave me a much cooler draw than screwing it on really tight (hope that makes some sense). Maybe there is something in the instructions that gives this advice, I do not know as I didn't read em lol. But it might be worth the team adding this information to their bank of knowledge, I might even phone the Wigan branch up or pop in sometime and make sure they know this and give this advice to new e-cig users.
As a device for NEW e-cig users TW have got this design bang on the button if you ask me. The basic design has been seen before, automatic e-cig, looks like the real thing and more recently it probably has cartomisers and even a PCC. Usually when people decide to improve on a design that is already quite well liked something goes wrong. The design TW have opted for is one that has a slightly shorter battery than its competitors. This slight change makes quite a big difference, especially to the new user. It means that they can have a complete built up ready to go ecig in the PCC, whilst at the same time have a spare battery being charged. Space for another 5 cartomisers, 6 if you count the one on the e-cig and I would say for many users they have more than enough to last them a day. The cartomisers themselves hold 0.7 ml approx, so that is 4.2 ml of ejuice and effectively several batteries of power all in their cig packet sized device. So for the new user, who wants to have something that really does look like a analouge cig then this looks their best bet.
Show them the condom refil method and tell them to get a spare USB charging lead for it and shove that in the glove box/work draw ect just in case, they are not standard leads as the PCC itself does not have a usb port on it. In writing this I have relised how I should get a spare lead just in case. I just checked and TW have em at £1.99 so that is on my next order list.
If I lost mine I would go and buy another. I have various other batteries, attys and cartos. Egos and passthroughs ect, I really have no idea why I prefer this but I do. Maybe it reminds me a lot of some of the old ecigs like the 401 varieties I once vaped that got me into ecigs but no longer with the tiny cart problems, maybe it is the mixture of light e-cig, PCC, spare battery and cartos which give the new e-cig user a huge bonus to what I had even a few years ago. Meh, horses for courses I guess.
