Title: iJoy Capo 216 Unboxing & First Impressions
Post by: Shadav on March 07, 2021, 08:47:58 PM
I'm very excited for this mod but also let down
It has the same issues as the capo squonker, where it's just kind of overpowered....now matter what watts I set it to, it's still too high....though with the 216 I can change the power setting to soft and that has seemed to help a lot...
there's no keylock per say on this mod, now it does go into sleep mode and while in sleep mode you can not press the + and - keys, to wake it up, press the fire button...
it's simply an on and off device, with very limited menu options
power mode with normal, hard or soft options
tc mode with ni, ti, ss, tcr
reset puff counter
and that's it for the menu, no brightness control, no key lock controls, nada....
pressing the + and - keys together just tells you what your coil ohm is, which is already displayed on the screen
pressing the + or - keys and the fire button together does nothing...

Is it worth it? meh....for $45 for a dual squonker, it's worth it...but are there better dual squonkers out there, yes...

for me well ;) it's a dual squonker and orange :wub:
but it's funky...I don't know what they did with this and the capo squonker but they just aren't right...it's nice that they instant fire and all but they over shot the power on it, so it's always warmer than what the watts are set at...now with the 216 there is the option to set the power to soft mode and that has helped out a lot and made it a more enjoyable vape

the bottles that come with it, well they suck....very stiff and firm and, I don't have big hands....so that's an issue...when trying to squonk (which is difficult as the bottles are very firm) I'm also pressing the + and - keys.....um....hello ijoy, design flaw much....
and since there's no way to lock the keys, there's no real way around that...
yeah that's gonna be a real big issue!
aside from that and no real menu options...and the funkiness that they did to the board to make it instant fire....those are really going to be my own downsides, but those are some pretty big downsides!!!!

it feels good in the hand, nice big clicky fire button, fairly nice sized menu screen (could be a bit bigger would have been nicer, and a brightness control would have really been nice)

the kit does come with a (janky wanna be) rda...it's not an rda, you can not rebuild it...you can rewick it, but there's no way to put new coils on it....
some kits do come with 2x 20700 batteries, which is nice....apparently the kit I got the batteries are dead....we shall see if they actually work after being charged.

and well, that's really all I can say about this mod
+ it's a dual 20700 squonk mod
+ it's in orange :p:wub:
+ it was only $45 from Wet Vapes (https://www.wetvapes.com/ijoy-capo-216-srda-kit-with-batteries.html)
+ it comes with batteries
+ it comes with adapter for 18650s

~ it comes with a dripper (not really a + or -)
~ no real menu options aside from basic (this could be a good thing or a bad thing...simple to use but no customizing it)

- the bottles are too firm
- no key lock
- no brightness control
- the way it is designed, when squonking you're pressing the + and - keys

so well there ya have it....
and if you want to watch :p a 40 minute video of me rambling
