Why on earth did I buy this?
Actually a fair question:
I dont like devices with electronics in, I prefer mechanical devices.
I dont like tanks much - never found one that gives the flavour I get from straight atomisers or my Bulli A2.
I don't like things that light up.
Well I bought it because, rather than in spite, of these things. When I saw the Rok Star at UK Vapefest, I was struck immeditely that the appearance and format of the device would appeal to people like my academic colleagues and that if it worked reasonably well, it would make a good recommendation to them. I also thought it might be useful for me when travelling - I don't like taking my expensive mods on planes etc.
I tried the Rok Star at Vapefest and it appeared to work pretty well - I was given a code for a 15% discount and so I ordered one.
The Rok Star Package
Well, it came in a nice box:
The box contained a comprehensive instruction sheet (written in real English for a change
) and beneath it, on the top layer of the box was:
One complete Rok Star with a 650mah battery, and a second cap containing a spare tank and atomiser. The lower level of the box contained:
Two spare airflow adjustment rings (why?), six mouthpieces (seems generous), a USB charger and a 950mah battery. Note this means that you get two Rok Stars in the package...
One of the batteries proved to be charged, so while the second battery was charging, I had a good look at:
The Rok Star bits
Firstly the complete unit:
Next the battery:
You can see the airflow adjuster which can be rotated either way to increase/decrease the tightness of the draw. The ring can be pulled off:
You can see how the slots in the ring fit onto ridges on the adjustment band on the battery:
Next the tank and atomiser, shown here connected to each other:
The atomiser screws into the tank - here is the atomiser's battery connector:
Continued in Part 2
