First Look: 5v SmokTech WOW from ggecigs.net
The kit is stated to come with 1 X WOW Tube and cap, 1 X thread cap 1 X 3.5ml dual coil acrylic tank, 5 X 2.0 ohm tank cartomizers, 5 X whistle tipped drip-tips, 1 X 2.0 ohm 5ml dual coil eGo cartomizer, 4 X 700mAh IMR 16340 batteries, 1 X TrustFire TR-001 charger (with US plug), 1 X zipper carry pouch.
I received all of that except it had a aussie plug, which was nice. It also came with 2.5Ω tank cartos instead of 2.0Ω, which I like better on a 5v device anyway and the supplied tank seems to be smaller than 3.5ml. That too is no big deal to me as I prefer the smaller diameter tank. I only mention it as it varies from the description. I had a little trouble on the start and emailed GGecig. They responded quickly and were very nice to correspond with.
I have had a few button sticking incidents over the last 3 days but they are becoming less frequent and are unsticking by itself now rather then having to manually unstick it. I’ll say more about that in my actual video review when I have a chance to use it longer. The issue I contacted GGecigs about was what I thought was a dead Carto that came with the unit. The eGo style Smok dual coil carto would kick off the protection when I first used it and I thought it was just a shorted carto. It turns out that I wanted to use the kit with fully charged batteries right off the bat so I used a set of protected 16340s that I already had charged. It was not the WOW kicking out it was the protection on the batteries. After charging the supplied unprotected batteries and using them I had no further issues with the big honking eGo styles cartomiser that came with it. The other cartos that came with it worked with both the unprotected batteries that came with it and protected 16340s that I already had.
During the 3 days I have used it, I have found I like it. It is not much larger than the 1300 mah off brand eGo that I have. Just a little fatter. But not my much. It has PWM output so I am not able, with my current test equipment, to test loaded output. But I can say that on all the supplied cartos and a standard silver bottom boge 510D it vapes like 5v. I am getting good battery life out of it. It is lasting my 12 hour shift at my normal vaping pace. Initially it appears to be a nice kit, with heaps of cartos that comes with everything you need except e-juice to vape around the clock at 5v with a tank. I hope the button sticking resolves its self before I do the final review. It appears now to be the only major flaw in a otherwise stellar kit.
