Geekvape Gbox

[BULLDOG1964]

I have the red and black one, it's a great mod I'm made up with it. Yes it is a unit and quite bulky to carry round but def worth the size imo

thanks for your reply think i will still get one anyway ..

Got mine set up today. This is my first RDA and first squonker and have to say I think it's fantastic. The deck on the RDA was a little tricky to work with as the slots are angled downwards but it all went together without too much of a struggle.

I went for the wine red one which I think looks great.

Also I watched a review for one of these on YouTube that mentioned the squonker bottle was really firm and hard to squeeze but both mine are lovely and soft so looks like GeekVape changed the bottles for retail versions.

Mine has just landed in the UK. Has anyone used it in TC yet? I’ve read that GV has limited the mod to 80W in TC mode. Seems crazy to me. Just wondering if it’s true or not.

Hi. I just checked this for you and yes, it appears to max out at 80W in temperature modes.

Hi mate you didn't think that through to be fair. In tc mode 80w is enough because once your coils hit the temp you set it will just throttle the wattage back so you can set it to 80w in tc but after a second or so the mod will just throttle back to much lower wattage and then add wattage as you take a pull long enough to keep the set temp. shoving all 200w in tc will mean the coils hit the temp set in a fraction of a second and the rest will be just the same as using 80w. Hope this explains and helps you. Enjoy.

By the way folks here are the best prices

Thanks man.

I finally got round to having a play with mine and it’s a decent mod for the money. Much prefer the feel of it to the drone. The radar is ok but a ‘spitty’ with bigger complex builds.

Glad your enjoying it.

AH, crustyfolker has explained that very well and it kinda makes sense when you think about it. I've never bothered with TC modes as it seems too complicated.

Yeah I'm enjoying it alot. I've nothing else to compare it with so I can't say things like "it would be better if it did this" etc but it's definitely opened up the possibilities for me to consider other RDA type tanks that can be used with squonk mods.

Thanks. I do know how TC works. Guess I have a thing about manufactures assuming how everyone should vape as well assuming that people don’t know how to use a mod sensibly. Don’t get me wrong, 80w pre heat is more than adequate 99% of the time. However, on occasion depending on coil material/mass/heat flux etc an 80w+ pre heat has a place. Occasionally.

Tc mode. Similar to wattage mode in a way. You alter the temp instead of altering the wattage. as said 80 watts is enough. If you have a DNA75 squonker or a drone which is a 166w mod you can set your tc up and get it to work really well as well as customizing the vape you get, a bit of faff though but worth it. DNA mods you can set the preheat punch ie 70w for a second this will preheat the wire ie Ni200, titanium, ss of varying types etc but may not even get to 1 second before it throttles back to keep the set temp. Now most mods do have settings for various wires but most maybe a little bit out with its calculations if you have a tc setting for custom then you can find the wire settings and add them to your mod or add the required digits from the table in the second post here. https://www.planetofthevapes.co.uk/...ads/tcr-values-for-ss316.108214/#post-1180087
If you feel these are not right then you can adjust the setting by 1 or 2 either up or down till one of the values next to it works good.

it is a learning curve and more people on here will be absolutely more knowledgeable than me in tc vaping.
The good of tc vaping is more flavour or to get a certain flavour to pop and others will say better flavour as well, i don't really notice the better flavour but i would say it is more cleaner taste.
Give it a go there isn't much to loose, you can still vape using just the wattage setting as long as you are not using ni200 or titanium.
Good luck if you give it a go its good
