Unboxing and first impressions:
-Once you open the box you are presented with everything neatly presented for you to see.
The mod comes with the RBA already installed and also includes the boro for the drop in coils, once you life the top part you have the rest of the contents laying on the bottom of the box.
It is not a metal mod...and knowing that it was is made of PC or ABS nylon i am unsure on how it will feel in my hands.
Yes this is not a Billet Box made of T6 Aluminum but it doesn't feel bad,you don't get that ''cheapo'' feeling that you usually get when plastic is involved.
Fits nicely in the hand and it seems to be all assembled correctly,doors fit perfectly and there is no rattle.
Vaping time:
So to start with i decided to start with the boro for the drop in coils.
Used the coil that was already installed (VVC-30 03ohms/30-45w),refilling was a breeze although i still don't like the rubber tab as a filling method.
Let the coil sit for 15 minutes and then started vaping with a lower than recommended wattage to just break in the coil.
Nice airflow...decent hit and and a good cloud.
Fire button response is quick and it delivers good flavor.
To be honest i am not a fan of these coils so just used this one for half a day before i decided to give the RBA a try.
Went over to my friends vape shop since he was curious and wanted to see the Pulse AIO in person,he also wanted to gift me a nice coil to try out the RBA.
He had a nice 0,13 (in double,26/27 single) full N80 in a 2,5mm size ready to pop in the RBA and start vaping.
Setting up the coil is easy,same goes for wicking and getting it ready for vaping but...you have to make sure you don't fill up the Boro tank before putting it in the mod.
Let me explain once you put the base into the top you realize there is no click,it is not snug...
it is actually pretty loose so filling the tank while outside of the Pulse AIO is not really a smart thing to do since it can easily open up and you will get your mod and hands filled with e-liquid.
Not a big deal thou,just prime the cotton...fire it up and then place the base in the top part and put it in the Pulse AIO,once it's screwed in you can proceed to fill the boro.
As with all my reviews i stick with the same e-liquid and nic (Shiva aroma,70VG/30PG and 3mg nic),this way i can tell the difference when using different devices.
As per usual i started at low wattage just to get a feeling of the type of vape i would get and slowly going up until i got to my sweet spot.
Started at 30w and slowly went up all the way to 50w,bit higher than my usual but that is where it felt right.
Solid vape,flavorful and compact...a bit on the restricted side which is my preference.
Not into really airy vapes nor very hot ones,i was pleasantly surprised that it just felt right.
This is my first Billet Box type device so i was looking forward to writing this review since the aesthetics of the device really appeased to me,just a small rectangular box with a little protruding drip tip.
Now what i am about to say is just my personal preference when using a vaping device.
I like simple,i want an easy way to refill the tank and i don't want it overly complicated,some people do like these sort of devices since they enjoy fiddling around with them but that is just not me.
It is not overly complicated,heck i never used a BB type device before and i got it up and running in no time but a couple of details just prevent me from using the Pulse AIO as my main vaping device.
-First of all i am a lefty and these type of devices seem to have been designed for right handed users.
Tried all sort of ways of holding the mod so i wouldn't cover the airflow holes but no dice,not saying i couldn't use because if i held it without touching the palm of my hand i wouldn't cover the airlflow holes but it doesn't feel right...just plain awkward.
-Second,not a fan of the rubbery tabs,i just don't like them...this is just a personal thing but give me an easy screw top cap on a RTA and i am one happy camper.
Pros:
-Highly adaptable to your vaping needs,either drop in coil or just use the RBA with your favorite coil
-Despite being made of PC or ABS nylon it doesn't feel cheap,it is well made and everything fits and snaps together neatly
-Plenty of options to customize the Pulse AIO,from panels to the firing button you can go crazy with color combinations.
-Good performance from the RBA
-Easy to set up the coil and wick the RBA
-21700 Battery (can use 18650 with the adapter that is provided in the box)
Cons:
-Only real con i can think of is the way the RBA base and top fit together,should be a nice tight and snug fit...it is a bit loose and will get your mod and hands filled with e-liquid if you don't remember that you should fill it once it is inside the Pulse AIO and not before.
Would i recommend this device:
This device appeals to in my humble opinion to 2 type of vapers:
The ones that want to get started in the BB world will be smart and start with the Pulse AIO.
It is a affordable well made device that will make it easy to get started in this type of vaping.
Other type of vapers that are already using BB products will also enjoy this since they will be able to have a device they can take out for a night in town and not be afraid to lose it since the cost is lower than the other models in the market.
On top of that plenty of their BB accessories will be usable with the Pulse AIO so it's a win win.
