Reviewer comments on business characteristics

Ijoy the rising brand! Decided to position itself at the level of the major players in the evolution of clearomizers, the Chinese manufacturer offers an entry-level product for vaping enthusiasts which combines elegance, discretion and modulation.

Clearly dedicated to women, this mini-clearomizer has advantages that we will detail throughout this review. Of course you guys can use it too, it's not pink, not scented, and you have every right to like this very effective little object.

It is a consumable, you can only adapt a 510 drip-tip of your choice (it is supplied as standard) and you will have to buy the resistors adapted and planned for this type of ato from the dealers who offer them.

Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality

A small preliminary development on the information indicated in the protocols above: the form-factor recalls the mini-Protank rounded to the drip-tip, and the O-rings other than that of the drip-tip are located, on the resistance in part top (chimney seal) 2, in contact with the connecting part (connector ring) and the other on the same part, at the bottom of the screw thread which receives the tank / top-cap assembly.

ACME M disassembled   ACME M 3parties  AcmeM ph site

The assembly could not be easier. Each of the parts to be screwed (3 in number) has notches facilitating the grip and allowing a consequent tightening as well as disassembly. the drip-tip is not absolutely fixed in its housing, it can present a slightly upset verticality which can have the effect of deeply annoying me when I think that we are supposedly going to the moon and that I notice that it is still not screwed to make correctly stand a metal cylinder in a housing provided for this purpose, otherwise this detail only has the importance that one gives to it and does not prevent to vape. But still it fucks her badly!

The metal parts are in shiny chrome appearance. The tank, also called tank by the Anglo-Saxons and certain Latin speakers (who knows why… 😉), is made of glass. I could say Pyrex but no, this drip-tip annoyed me and I don't want to go into a technical detail that I don't know (in the end everyone doesn't care ...),you will probably remember more that it is susceptible to breaking and that it shows the remaining level of fluid.

The overall quality of the product is satisfactory, the air-flow adjustment ring remains in position once it has been chosen (not like the drip-tip but hey, I'm not going to make a big deal out of it… 😈) . You can change the resistance while there is still liquid, it is appreciable and practical except perhaps while driving but we move away a little from the subject. An eGo connection will probably make you prefer a battery of the same type rather than a 26mm diameter mod because you will need to get an 510 / eGo adapter, another thing to screw that risks increasing the drop-volt and which does not. will not make the drip-tip hold in place better, so no need to complicate matters.

Reviewer's comments on functional features

Air flow adjustable on the top cap by rotating ring. A single hole position 1,8 mm and an oblong slot allowing a progressive opening of 0 to 4,5 cm / cube (value given by the manufacturer!). Mathematical logical rectification, it is either a cubic millimeter or a square millimeter, of course.

Drip-tip 510 supplied (suction diameter 4 mm).

Proprietary resistance given at 2ohms, actual value 2,7 ohms (tested on mods and multimeter). Hair: natural cotton.

Filling by the inverted tank (drip-tip down) inclined, easy, do not exceed the height of the chimney base (it goes without saying but it happens quickly).

Connection eGo 510, positive pole of the resistor mounted on spring. The ato does not leak, and in any position, even hot, it is therefore very efficient from a technical point of view, (the same cannot be said of you know what)

During a visit to a happy vaping friend who owns the object of this review, I noticed that the use of the Dremel (small handyman's electric tool) in direct contact with a metal part of the ato ( in this case the connector at the level of the notched part) was not profitable or even downright detrimental. I was also allowed to discover that the metal body is made of chromed brass. Without this unfortunate encounter (between the ato and the Dremel, not between Papagallo and yours truly) I would not have been able to tell you about this design detail. However, we regret the definitive consequence of this furtive connection that I advise you not to experience. 

Drip-Tip Features

  • Drip tip type: 510 Only
  • Presence of a Drip-Tip? Yes, the vaper can immediately use the product
  • Length and type of drip-tip present: Medium
  • Quality of the present drip-tip: Medium (not very pleasant in the mouth)

Reviewer's comments on the Drip-Tip

The drip-tip is metallic with a chrome appearance, it is adapted to the draw proposed by the airflow of the ato open to the maximum. If you have nothing against the fact that it does not fit perfectly straight in its housing, this essential accessory and provided by the manufacturer should be suitable for you, as long as it does not prevent you from vaping and that's when - even at least on this point that we will agree that it is preferable to dispose of it when it is needed.

In the event that like me, it annoys you to have a beautiful object topped with a traviole drip-tip, try others.

Vapelier's note on packaging: 4.5 / 5 4.5 5 out of stars

Reviewer's comments on conditioning

The light cardboard box decorated with a transparent window showing the M contains a post-formed semi-rigid plastic shell to receive the atomizer in the right direction. It is a minimum packaging that is proposed, with a notice in English and the address of the website, an authenticity label is stuck on the cardboard box, the atomizer is pre-assembled there is no more than 'to fill it and screw it on the battery.

Vapelier's note on ease of use: 5 / 5 5 5 out of stars

Reviewer's comments on the use of the product

EGo mega trial SLB V3 to 4,2V for 6,53W / juice in 50 / 50 to 6 mg / ml:

Air flow on single hole position:

  • Vape tight warm / cold, moderate steam, restitution taste / flavor correct, hit weak.

Air flow cyclops maximum opening:

  • Cold vapor, correct density, comparable rendition, low hit.

At 5V for 9,26W same juice, max open air flow:

  • Cold vape, good amount of steam, comparable rendition, low hit.

At 6V for 13,33W open air flow max:

  • Vape cold, density / amount of steam a little better, better flavor rendition, weak hit.

On mod mecha with 510 / eGo low battery charge adapter (3,9v):

  • A little lag precedes a puff of 5 seconds with rendering characteristics comparable to eGo.

In full charge:

  • No lag, good restitution flavor / taste, good amount of steam. The most sensitive hit remains weak.

The manufacturer indicates on his site that this clearo can support up to 20W. The maximum recommended power actually changes the production of steam quite a bit, and significantly increases the hit felt. The restitution of flavors and taste will also prove to be more "present", just as the consumption of juice is felt. The values ​​between 11 and 15W seem the most satisfactory in terms of quality of vape / autonomy compromise (as a reminder: resistance tested at 2,7 ohm).

Recommendations for use

  • What type of mod is it advisable to use this product with? Electronic
  • Which mod model is it recommended to use this product with? aesthetically none, prefer a VV / VW battery
  • What type of EJuice is it recommended to use this product with? I do not recommend it for 100% VG liquids
  • Description of the test configuration used: several configs described above
  • Description of the ideal configuration with this product: VV / VW battery, eGo type, Emow battery, 16mm mechanical mod with 14500 batteries….

was the product liked by the reviewer: Bof, it's not the craze

Overall average of the Vapelier for this product: 4.1 / 5 4.1 5 out of stars

The mood ticket of the reviewer

By its design and its measurements it will suit women and more generally people wishing not to exhibit material and an exuberant vape. During an outing in town, you will then wear an elegant set and you will modulate your vape as no mini-clearo allows it to date.

For nags of my kind, follower of the dripper on a good old mechanic, it is not the ideal ato. A warm / cold vape, still too tight to the max of the air-flow opening, a proprietary resistance and an eGo connection obviously do not correspond to my vape. To have started on Clearo, a short time ago, I must admit that we are still far from BCC eVod in terms of technical design and quality of vape, it is a more evolved material than the mini-Protank III to which it can be compared. In this category of mini clearo it is a very good choice that this ACME M. It would be desirable for a question of reliability of the product and the brand that the resistance given for 2 ohms is indeed in conformity with this value, it is possible that I was unfortunately and exceptionally a user of a poorly calibrated part.

Finally, it is a material that I recommend, and more particularly to all those who wish to equip themselves with a discreet, but nevertheless effective set-up.

Looking forward to reading you.
