With any luck this thread will end at the first post. With more luck, it'll continue as I document the endless problems encountered with a mod that has no right to exist.
Why? I owned a Double Barrel V3 and it proved to be the biggest pile of shit I've ever owned in 8 years of vaping. It was replaced with a TAC21 (same Squid man, same Squid company), and that was either poorly designed or poorly made.
It's no secret that these are Chinese mods. Squid bloke may like to harp on about his military service on the box, but he sure isn't patriotic when it comes to supporting the American manufacturing sector. No, these things are mass produced in the Land Of the Rising No.41 with fried rice - and then they had a premium price tag slapped on them.
There are two types of people in this world: those who learn from their mistakes and move on and those who get court orders preventing them from being within 5 miles of an Ex because they can't come to terms with reality.
I know which one I am.
Wearing a tracking tag that notifies your whereabouts to the police is a lot similar to owning a DBV3. Or maybe it isn't. Maybe it's like contracting a form of syphilis that isn't responsive to treatment. Or maybe not. I don't know - it's been a long week and I'm all out of analogies.
It comes in a box like the V2, but unlike the one that caused the V2 to cost £90-odd, this box must be made of cheaper cardboard because I only paid £30.99 for this one.
It has the same instruction manual, the same scratch plates, and the same click mechanism to change power, rotate screen and lock the settings. It has a different battery door, one that is similar to the TAC21.
And, for the DIY enthusiasts, a blank quality control inspection card that you can fill in yourself.
There are three types of people in this world: ones who appreciate great art (like what Tracey Emin makes), ones who appreciate great design (like Northampton's triumphant homage to Brutalism [link]) and the blind.
You need to be blind to like any of the four colour schemes this new V3 comes in. Not being blind is a real disadvantage during use unless you have huge hands that cover the mod up.
Will this prove to be decent in use? Who knows. Thirty quid, a pair of very dark glasses and a flight to Amsterdam booked, I aim to find out.
