Most things we see and use can be divided into good and bad. Often this is enough. But there is one more category. We could do without it, but it is responsible for the feeling of pleasantness brought into everyday life. These are beautiful, stylish things that bring pleasure from owning them. This is exactly what the English “Screwdriver” is, fully called Screwdriver E-NIC MKII. I have been eyeing this device since I became interested in vaping. But I could not decide to take it. And when I finally became the happy owner of the Silver Screwdriver E-NIC MKII-Full Kit, I immediately wanted to share my impressions of using it with the venerable public. To which my respected colleague ukraibnets made a remark: “… everything new is well forgotten old. Despite the abundance of information, there is no complete detailed review with photos…”
Yes, the device is not a hot new product. When I was just thinking about buying it, I dug through our forum, and searched through my neighbors’. There is scattered information. About batteries, about changing the connector, about repairs, about spacers, there is a video in a non-Russian language. But in order to read in one place what it is, how to use it, what it can do and what it can’t, and, yes, photos — to look at it — I couldn’t find this. In addition, earlier, in terms of price, it was quite an expensive pleasure. vape coil Now there are offers (both on the manufacturer’s website and already delivered samples), captivating with their pleasantness. So, actually, the review and impressions from use. I have quite a few devices in my household, but I have never received such pleasant impressions from any of them already upon unwrapping the package. The same Provari — I took it out, inserted the batteries and immediately got fed up. Right there is a whole performance: First you see a neat box with the brand logo of the device.
Branded cord for attaching the protective button cap and a cord for the neck.
A small thing, but nice. The cord for the protective cap must be used, otherwise it gets lost quickly and efficiently. At first, I attached a cord for carrying, but later I abandoned it, because I rarely take it with me on the road (an explanation of the preferred type of use will come later). Then my hands reach for the device itself, also beautifully packaged.
And here comes the first attack of the “Wow!” effect. But testing our willpower, we continue to disassemble other boxes. First, we take out the charger. Compact, for one battery.
Since my battery farm is not small, I put this charger aside for trips. And I charge the “screwdriver” batteries either in the TR-003 or in the Pila. Next, we take out the cartridges for the 901 card, for which the Screwdriver is “sharpened”. Regular 901 cards, only in branded packaging.
And the last box. So-called “highlight” of this kit. With branded liquid and a pipette.
Screwdriver E-NIC MKII – liquid
Disassembling …
It is worth mentioning separately about the liquid included in the kit. This is a strong tobacco taste with a strength of 24 mg of nicotine. The combination is indescribable. It is with it that you can use 901 atom not with a drip, but with cartridges. Because 5-7 puffs and a nicotine overdose slaps your shoulder (and head). It’s strange, but such a strong taste-nicotine hit is quite pleasant. And now we can move on to the device itself.
I don’t understand why, but sometimes it’s nicer this way. The device in question has only two characteristics. The first is its appearance, and not even its beauty, but its convenience/comfort of use. Photos cannot convey the tactile sensations. Thanks to my colleague who let me touch and puff this thing. Because at some point I was able to overcome an attack of hamsterism and refused to buy another “toy”. But after holding it in my hands, I realized that I had made a mistake. And I quickly corrected this unfortunate oversight. By the way, the location of the control button at the bottom seems strange and illogical only at first glance. Literally within a minute, the device itself “settles” in the palm and “finds” a comfortable position for grip and control. Depending on the size of the hand, the control button can be pressed either against the little finger slightly retracted into the palm, or against the ring finger (both are comfortable for me).
It is unlikely that this device will be suitable as the only vaping device. Of course, it is possible, but not that kind of thing. Rather, its place is in the collection of a sophisticated vaper. Perhaps in second place. As a tool for exquisite dripping. I will still give the first place to a high-quality varivolt (I chose Provari-mini for myself). In third place I would put regular Joey eGo-T/C batteries at 1000 mAh. Well, and then – the subtleties of ease of use in specific situations and the results of the relationship of a personal “hamster” with a personal “toad”. Yes, Screwdriver E-NIC MKII also seems like an excellent gift (present, offering) to any vaper. And it is not embarrassing to give, and it is pleasant to receive. Well, and of course, you can also give such a thing to yourself if the opportunity arises.
Finally, I want to note only one thing. I have enough devices. But, if I may say so, I do not regret buying the Screwdriver E-NIC MKII the most. More precisely: I regret that I did not get it earlier.
That’s it, thank you for your attention. Sorry for the many letters and many photos.
P.S.: It became possible to crush the “toad” to the delight of the “hamster” due to the current price offers for this device.
P.P.S.: I will repeat once again: the place of this device is in the collection of a sophisticated vaper. As the one and only – it will be difficult for it to provide a variety of high-quality and tasty vaping.
P.P.P.S.: In this review, the issue of “spacers” for the possibility of using larger batteries is omitted. Because in my IMHO – they have too blasphemous an effect on the style of the device.
