Reviewer comments on business characteristics

Wismec integrates its flagship PCB (200W + 0,91 inch OLED) in a cheap looking box at first glance because without the batteries, it weighs only 76,5g. Its fronts, including the cover, are made of transparent polycarbonate with honeycomb print on the inside. The structure which receives the cradle elements, Chipset, 510 connection is made of metallized plastic alloy.
The atomizer looks the same with its PMMA tank and its transparent 510 drip-tip which covers a polycarbonate top-cap like the airflow opening / closing ring, it does not weigh heavy either.
This is where the “plastic” observation ends, if you don't mind the expression. The combo is indeed well-proportioned, pleasant to handle and it does exactly what it is designed for: beautiful scent clouds.

Its price, around 60 €, is it therefore justified? this is what we will see in detail.

Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality

After the first impression, we will say a little confusing (for the antediluvian who speaks to you and who vapes in mechanical Sencillo double batteries and full stainless steel drippers ... 345g the whole), this kit or starter kit or even TC starter kit, is good nice in more ways than one.
Box + Ato + Accus + 3ml of juice = 210g; the fairer sex will appreciate, especially since the colors available are how to tell you… remarkable, that should be appropriate, the 53,5mm wide will perhaps be less suitable for these ladies.


The atomizer is aesthetically coordinated with the Box, it is filled by shifting the Top Cap in the direction of the small arrow engraved on it, the airflow control is adjusted at the base, at the 'using a notched ring (for the grip) which pivots along an arc allowing to close completely until the total opening. It is believed to contain 3ml of juice, although Wismec have a Europe version of 2ml. (A badly interpreted PDT probably, since the time, pffff ...)


With 13,2cm of height (Box + ato), it rivals in length with certain set-ups tube + ato which surpass it briskly.
We will come back in more detail on the operation of the Box, note that the battery compartment presents the directions of polarities, as well as a ribbon to help the batteries exit, (2 X 18650 not supplied) the cover fits perfectly to its housing (there is a designated key, pronounce “disayné”, to facilitate opening with the nail).
Good grip, good grip, a metal switch 11mm diameter, a little less than 5mm for buttons settings, classic and effective.


The built-in charging module accepts input 2A, its supplied connector is compatible QC USB 3 / micro USB, the update of the chipset will pass by it and your PC.
At Vapelier, we do not recommend charging your batteries via a USB PC, prefer a phone charger or even better, a dedicated charger that requires, it is true, two sets of two batteries.

Reviewer's comments on functional features

Let's start with the Atomizer Amor NSE. For this test I have the WS-M 0,27Ω resistor. Once set up, I will prime it both by the four exterior lights and inside, it is essential to operate in this way, each time a proprietary resistance is used for the first time, especially if you are vaping with thick juices (high viscosity) such as 20PG / 80VG.

Once reassembled and filled, I will wait a few more minutes before the first 2 second pulse to listen and taste the result of the priming.

The config is as follows: fruity mentholated juice in 20/80, 0,25Ω direct 50W, without preheat, fully open airflow. An aerial vape where you must not pretend to gain volume quickly enough (3/4 seconds). It is relatively noisy on the suction side but it is convincing in terms of the volume of steam.

the Drip-Tip is pleasant, it is a 510 of 5,75mm useful diameter of air inlet, anyway the chimney outlet is 5mm in diameter, we will not get better. The airflow is 12mm X 2mm in full open position, you need that if you are vaping at a high power level compared to the resistance value.

La Sinuous V200 allows a safe vape. All protections are present: pulse duration 10 max seconds, DC protection, overvoltages, internal heating and Coil, battery position reversal, on / under load.

Vape modes: Bypass (protected mech), TC-Ni / TC-Ti / TC-SS / TCR / VW (temperature control modes), simple VW.

Three possible memorizations, preheat.

Limits of use: 0.05-1.5Ω in TC modes - 0.05-3.5Ω in VW mode. Temperature range: 100-315 ° C / 200-600 ° F (TC modes). Output powers: 1 to 200W (in steps of 1 W). Output voltages: from 1 to 8 Volts.

And various other settings you can admire the operating mode below.

Everything works pretty well, the Box is reactive, the ato does not heat up or reasonably after a chain vape of 1/4 of an hour. No leak, no condensation on the box, it works, we will soon be able to talk about quality, feelings, but first let's finish with the material.

Evaluation of the packaging

Reviewer's comments on conditioning

Well, it's a box, like a white cardboard box in which you will find, properly installed in a foam compartment, your Sinuous V200. The connection is located next to it, in a small cardboard box. TheAmor NSE is also protected in a rigid foam.
A bag of spare parts (O-rings), a WS-04 MTL 1,3Ω resistor, (the other is already in the ato).
It is well presented, the manual is also in French, the photo shows you the basics.

Appreciations in use

  • Transport facilities with the test atomizer: Ok for an inside jacket pocket (no deformations)
  • Disassembly and cleaning facilities: Easy, even standing on the street, with a simple handkerchief
  • Easy to change the batteries: Easy, even standing in the street
  • Did the mod heat up? No
  • Has there been any erratic behavior after a day of use? No

Vapelier's rating in terms of ease of use: 5/5 5 5 out of stars

Reviewer's comments on the use of the product

Like any object not really made for this, avoid dropping your kit, on the ground or in the water, it would not be a good idea.

You will one day clean the beast a little deeper, even change the electronic card. For this and when the validity date of the warranty will expire, you will need a Phillips screwdriver as small as possible and remove 5 screws (2 inside, 2 on the connector 510, and one, once the connector removed) to have access to the card, which it is secured to the frame by 3 screws easily identifiable. Desoldering concepts / welds in electronics will be welcome, otherwise avoid sticking, let the pros do.

 

 

 

 

For normal use with a minimum of care, this kit should last a long time, especially as the batteries are changed. However, be sure to use 18650 (high drain) at 25A minimum, ensuring an adequate discharge current for a safe vape.

With this atomizer and the different resistors offered by Wismec and compatible, you should not vape more than 70W.

The Box allows you much more but it is useless with theAmor NSE, you will gain autonomy (personal, with 2 not new batteries, I emptied 4 tanks over 2 days at 45 / 50W for 0,27 / 0,24Ω and it remains easy to charge 30%).

With proprietary resistors, don't look for cloudy, high power performance. There is no going back possible after a dry hit which can occur at full ato, rather think of favoring a quiet vape, which in addition, will ensure you a good rendering of flavors because this little ato is quite comfortable in this area. Top up with liquid before you no longer see any “free” juice in the tank.

Here is the detail of the settings and possible options of the box on this photo montage.

A small aesthetic detail must be reported. Wismec on his site, forcefully declares, that the box can accommodate an ato up to 26mm in diameter, it will not be flush in this case, even if only 0,5mm will protrude on each side.

Recommendations for use

  • Type of batteries used during the tests: 18650
  • Number of batteries used during the tests: 2
  • With what type of atomizer is it advisable to use this product? Dripper, In sub-ohm assembly
  • With which model of atomizer is it advisable to use this product? the ato provided in the kit or any other ato up to 25mm in diameter (to stay flush)
  • Description of the test configuration used: The kit at 0,25Ω, 50W, juice in 20 / 80
  • Description of the ideal configuration with this product: As you feel, the kit itself is a good compromise, vape / autonomy.

was the product liked by the reviewer: Yes

Overall average of the Vapelier for this product: 4.5 / 5 4.5 5 out of stars

The mood ticket of the reviewer

I have to conclude this review, I would do it in a positive way for this starter kit from Wismec. The compromise Box / Ato is excellent because the Box is largely able to provide the power of vape for all resistances that accepts theAmor NSE. The atomizer is certainly a clearomizer with proprietary resistors but it is effective in terms of ergonomics, volume of steam generated and restoration of flavors, for what I had to test during these two days.

I never pronounce on the aesthetic or decorative aspect but among the good points to distribute, let's mention the clutter and featherweight of this combo.

I can not tell you the longevity of the resistance used, if some of you can enlighten us on this subject, do not hesitate, the comments are intended for you.
I indicate a price of this kit around 60 € because at the time I write these lines, I could not find on the Net of French shop to put me on the way, it should not delay and I do not do not think you indicate an enormity.

To conclude, there are usually five boxes of resistance around (again) 15 €.

Good vape to you, to a next review.
