So I received the PicoS and the Ello-Vate sub-ohm tank. The kit is very sporty. I got the white kit which has a red stripe as well. Also between the battery tube and the atomizer on the side are LED lights that activate when you fire. I’m not a huge fan of the looks but I showed it oiff at the vape store and there are fans for the look for sure. Some will like the sports car look. The kit also included a 21700 battery and an adaptor for 18650s.

The tank has a bubble glass holding 6.5 ml but included is a smaller tank - EU approved. It is a decent looking tank but I could not use the HW-M coils. I did not prime them enough and they burnt very fast. I was more careful with thee HW-N coil. I primed and sat the tank down full for ten minutes. It vapes very nicely at 58 watts. My issue is the tank is noisy. I tried fully open and half open. Nope. Noisy.

Here is a pic with the Continuos Current tube beside it to give you a little size comparison. A 24 mm RDA sits nicely on top (you can fit a 25 with room)

I am smiling see ...



Parameter:

Size: 52.5mm*28.5mm*128mm (6.5ml version)

52.5mm*28.5mm*120mm (2ml EU version)

Weight: 198.7g (6.5ml version, without cell)

192.9g (2ml EU version, without cell)

E-liquid capacity: 6.5ml / 2ml

Battery type: 21700 / 18650

Output wattage: 100W max

Output voltage: 0.5V-9V

Resistance range: 0.05Ω-3.0Ω (VW/Bypass mode)

0.05Ω-1.5Ω (TC-Ni/Ti/SS/M1/M2/M3 mode)

Colors: red, black, white, silver, dazzling, blue


So I’ve been doing some testing. The TC seemed a little inconsistent in SS but I’m not a TC vaper so it was not a big issue for me. In power mode I put a Royal Hunter 24 on top with a .13 ohm coil and set it at 90 watts. No perceptible lag and plenty of power there.


It is easy enough to set. The menu is fairly intuitive. It is easy to put the battery in. The whole tube unscrews and then you screw it back in. Everything can be set from the LEDs to the TCR. The screen is bright and quite readable. The buttons are clicky enough.

The mod will do 100 watts with the right coil. And it does have increments of .1 for those that want to stick an MTL tank on top. This is a plus.

So do I like this device? Honestly, it is not my style. I have smaller 21700 devices. I likely solo 10th anniversary more. It is much smaller and more ergonomic. Overall though it not a bad device for the price. So I will would say check it out yourselves. Some will really like it others will opt for a sleeker, smaller single battery.
