Ice Control and Flavor Burrst Disposable Vapes

As the wattage arms race reaches its conclusion and with adjustable airflow becoming standard fare on disposable vapes, the next wave of innovation has arrived. Mercifully, it is not even bigger screens and even more pictures of Saturn. Pillow Talk and Fasta have launched a pair of disposable vapes with flavor boosting technology. 

Rather than just controlling vapor generation, you can influence the vape flavor. Two distinct technological solutions are applied, and the experience is different.

Read our review of the Fasta Burrst 35000 for more information on this groundbreaking vape. The Pillow Talk Ice Control IC40000 is its primary rival in this cutting-edge space.

Mi-Pod has the best disposable vapes collection because these are the most popular products with adult vapor consumers.

Pillow Talk Ice Control IC40000 versus Fasta Burrst 35000

At first glance, there is not a ton to separate these two powerful disposable vapes. Both can infuse flavor. Both have a very large e-liquid capacity. They have bright screens and there is even a ton of overlap in the vape flavor department. But closer examination reveals fundamental design differences underneath the skin impact the comparative performance of the Pillow Talk IC40000 Ice Control and the Fasta Burrst. It is time for a deep-dive into vaping performance. 

Flavor Boosting Modes

The Pillow Talk Ice Control IC40000 offers four different levels of menthol ice that can be infused into every flavor. This necessitates a button and rather involved display. The Ice Levels are clearly distinguishable, although menthol is present in the flavor profile even on Ice Level 0.

This isn't false advertising as ice appears in the name of several flavors and basically every disposable vape on the planet contains some cooling elements to protect against coil burning. The two medium Ice Level choices are probably ideal for most vapers and Ice Level 4 is outrageously cold. This design represents a big step up from the old dual tank disposables, the only previous multiflavored disposable vape devices.

The Fasta Burrst 35000 offers more control over the flavor experience. It also has both a Fizz Series and an Ice Series, so you are not limited to making blue razz ice even icier. The total capacity of the Fasta Burrst 35000 is 25ml. 18ml are in the main tank and you can infuse 7ml with the push of a button.

A neat feature of the Fasta Burrst is the Burrst mode activation. Like a vape mod or traditional e-cig, this is not an on and off switch. You can hold and release the button during a puff to manipulate the flavor within a single draw. The combination of push button control and the Fizz series, coupled with a total of four coils, gives the Fasta Burrst the edge.

Winner: Fasta Burrst 35000

Vapor Production

In terms of sheer power, the Pillow Talk Ice Control is a bit outgunned. The Fasta Burrst 35000 has more features and more control, this includes three power modes and three airflow settings. The 20W power of the Ice Control is nothing to sneeze at, especially at 50mg nicotine strength, but the Fasta Burrst is jammed with real performance features that enhance user experience. Without the Burrst Mode, it would be one of the mightiest disposable vapes on the market.

There is Smooth Mode (16W), Normal Mode (20W), and Boost Mode (24W). Normal mode matches the output of the Pillow Talk Ice Control. Boost Mode for the Fasta Burrst is as powerful as the hard-hitting Lost Mary MO20000 Pro. It can match any rival in the world of disposable vaping. This is especially true as the three airflow control modes provide more flexibility than almost any competitor. Add in Fasta Burrst Mode and a diverse range of flavors and you have many different settings for your vaping experience. The Pillow Talk lags a bit in comparison, and that is before you consider that the Fasta Burrst's flavor tank is essentially an integrated disposable vape. This gives Burrst 35000 even more kick, although it is plenty strong without the button being depressed.

Coil Technology

There is not much to separate a NEO Mesh Coil from a Nexcore when it comes to technology and execution. They are two sides of the same coin. Splitting the work over four coils and relying on the second dual coil for the flavor tank

Winner: Fasta Burrst

E-Liquid Capacity

Obviously, there are some estimates involved when it comes to puff counts. How long is a puff? It is a lot easier to just look at e-liquid volume. This creates an interesting quandary because the Fasta Burrst holds significantly more e-liquid, but it is split into the flavor tank and the main tank. Combined, it is 25ml. And it doesn't matter if the ice runs out because the main tank is quite happy to deliver performance without the infusion of freeze or fizz.

Winner: Fasta Burrst

Battery Life

The Fasta Burrst 35000 has a much larger battery than the Ice Control IC40000 Pillow Talk: 850mAh versus 700mAh. The Fasta does ask its battery to do a bit more, both with a higher power setting, bigger screen, and the independently operated flavor boost tank, making battery life about even.

Winner: Draw

Digital Displays

Both devices are an absolute delight for the sophisticated adult vapor consumer. The Fasta 2.7" main screen is more legible in sunlight but the display on the side of the Ice Control is very understandable and neatly arranged.

These are two of the first disposable vapes to actually require such involved screens and it is still a bit of overkill for a one-time use device. If you object to graphics, the more pared down Pillow Talk isn't exactly subdued but has less going on. Although this is due to it also having fewer features to monitor. 

Winner: Fasta Burrst 35000

Flavors

This category is always dead-even and subjective. There has been a convergence in the world of disposable vapes with a handful of great flavor profiles dominating. At it seems that the Pillow Talk Ice Control IC40000 and the Fasta Burrst 35000 carry every single one.

Making it harder to judge, these devices allow you to manipulate the flavor. So, it one doesn't seem icy enough, you can easily change that. Both produce rich and consistent flavor. The Dual Neo Mesh Coil is excellent. The Four Ice Settings allow for so much variation in the Pillow Talk, although the permutations are nearly endless depending how you pump the Fasta Burrst's button. How does one judge a pair of Frozen Miami Mint flavors that probably could not be distinguished in taste test?

While we preferred the availability of the Fizz Series and the cool flavors available in that collection but like for like it is probably a draw and entirely dependent on the taste buds of the user.

Winner: Fasta Burrst

User Experience

The Pillow Talk Ice Control IC40000 is a very impressive vape. But the combination of more power modes, more control over the ice, and better airflow control gives the Fasta Burrst 35000 the edge.

Winner: Fasta Burrst

Our Verdict

The Fasta Burrst has the edge over the Pillow Talk Ice Control IC40000. Rather than labelled ice levels, you can control how much is pumped in. And it isn't just ice, as there are the alluring flavors of the Fizz series. The Fasta Burrst also has three airflow settings and three power settings, setting up to fight with the industry heavyweights even if the flavor boosting technology is not considered.

The use of two dual mesh coils is a great way to spread the load when 25ml of e-liquid need to be vaped. The Pillow Talk's primary edge is the puff count estimate, allow it contains less e-liquid. The flavor comparison is a wash. So much overlap and so much potential variation depending on how you choose to vape these impressive devices. But if we had to choose one, the Fasta Burrst 35000 is the more innovative and impressive technological solution. These are both strong devices, as they are evenly matched, but it was nearly a clean sweep.
