1st Impressions – the Davide by Anyvape
I received this direct from Anyvape for the purposes of review – my opinion will be subjective, and as honestly derived as possible, for me at least
I’d had an email from Anyvape, asking for orders for the Davide, explained that I ran Viva Vaping Ezine so don’t sell anything but would be happy to review the Davide if they were to send me one – after a few emails with Vicky they arrived today via DHL Davide and mini.
After brekkie, cracked open the transparent plastic box. Inside was a complete Davide with a 2.2 Ohm head installed, a plinth and a spare 1.5 Ohm head. Checked on the eVic and 2.2 Ohm reading – good start.
I’d seen a video that suggested that the Davide was Chrome plated, so gave the top cap a scrape – and whilst resistant, so well plated, it shows brass/copper underneath – so not SS.
The Glass tank seems quite sturdy - wouldn't want to drop it but... there are plans a foot to make a larger tank and centre post to give a larger capacity.
The heads look similar to Evod and ProTank ones – the only difference I can note (not having a ProTank to hand) is the post from the Davide is wider than the Evods, so need to swap for a narrower post – aside from that work both ways a treat.
Not overly keen on the innate Drip Tip – so swapped to the Smok-E Mountain Rameses for the Davide and the Microbore for the mini – and look better in my opinion. The supplied one does feel OK to use and has a double o-ring
Filling wise – just unscrew the bottom, the base is also where the atomiser head screws in, and fill through the 2 slits provided - even from a standard juice bottle (if careful). Screw the base back on and ready to Vape.
Capacity: Davide 3ml Mini 1.5ml and fully usable too
Performance wise – I’m liking the Davide
I’m getting a nice Shape to my Vape: not too warm, medium soft, not too fierce, and an acceptable texture, considering tis a 70/30 PG/VG mix of DIY M+P’s Praze.
Flavour is similar to the Evod, ProTank, T3s etc – Good.
Vapour Production again – Good
Throathit – me Praze isn’t really mixed for this – but probably medium-ish
Running this at 4v (underload) on the BB, and no dry hits, tho was getting warm just before I topped up.
Same with 8w+ on the eVic, and the mini works equally well on the eVic too
Also have had absolutely no gurgleyness – even when the tank was almost empty - which is a big plus in my books.
So far the Davide and the Davide mini are looking good - better than my experience with the ProTank – full review in a few days
