    ...thanks guys! Now if only this thing would start relaxing its grip on me just a little! Scary how much power the good-looking can have over us, eh?? My GLV is MAKING me use it... even at times when I feel like I could 'settle' for 3.7V for awhile... even at times when I feel like I could go without vaping at all for awhile!! Jay, what did you put in this thing, help!!

    May as well call it 'Christine' -- soon it will probably be picking off anyone who tries to tell me to "put that dang thing down sometimes fer cryin out loud"!!


    (That movie was on last night and I couldn't help but think of this at the part where Arnie is driving and psychotically describing the diabolical bond between him and his possessed car Christine! )

    I've been looking through the various threads on the GLV and am now asking for some input from users regarding 3.7v vs 5v.

    My background is; I've been sucking away for 2 1/2 months on a couple 901s. The batteries of one kit seemed questionable from the start but I valiantly vaped on. When it got to the point that I vaped for an hour and charged for two, it became clear after reseach on the forums that a battery mod was needed. It's almost 4 weeks since I placed my order at DX for Laser Mod parts and I'm still waiting. Lately I've been thinking that these 10440 batts aren't going to be a big improvement over stock 901 (SLB).

    Wading through mod reviews, the GLV is really intriguing and the producer, Jay, seems like he stands behind his product. Now the question is; 3.7 or 5v? Everyone seems to love whichever version they have and some of you have both. Having recently been downsized by the economy, I really don't want to buy both (don't feel bad, I'm living off my wife so it's sort of an extended vacation during crappy weather). I'm leaning toward the 5v because of the raves posted. I'm one of those people that hate rethinking a purchase and says "I wish I had gone with the ......"

    Help for the noob is appreciated.

    Hi Indy

    The 5v is a change from what you are use too. It is a warmer vape and much more responsive when you press the button. Batteries last for many hours at 5v also.

    If you like the cooler vape then 3.7 will do ya.

    Either unit will be a great improvement over what you have in terms of battery life.

    I love the button placement on the GLV. It is pocket friendly.. This is a huge plus for me..

    If I were you Id go with a 5v because it gets close to a real smoking experience.

    But I use all my mods almost daily. I love my Chuck at 3.7 or 6v, Detonator at 5v
    VP1 and 2 units are great at 3.7, Nicobox at 3.7.

    But out of all these I love My GLV I think the most.. Light weight, powerful and button placement is awesome.

    There are many good suppliers out there that give great service. Jay is one of those that stand behind their product.

    PS> If you get yourself some cartomizers and fill them with the juice you love, you will be in heaven my friend! Get yourself the proper adapter that takes your battery connection to the 808 connector to use them on the GLV... No muss, no mess, no fuss vaping. They are great! And they are awesome at 5v...

    I try to keep my 2 cents out of this page to keep it fair, but i have to agree with Doots.

    jaybird, I'm pretty lathered up about getting a 5v in green or red when do you anticipate having some stock?

    Thanks doots!!! I saw a few posts that the 5v is closest to analogs. I've cut down dramatically but haven't been able to completely kick the sticks. I'm hoping this will be the key.

    Thanks for bringing up the cartomizers (referred to as cartos?) as a juice reservoir. My experience is only with 901s and a Joye 306. I use Fluval sponge-type, not the wool, in my 901s. It seems enough to hold and wick without taking up the space of the wool type. I don't use the 306 anymore because the cart is a real pain. Sooooo... can you point me in the direction of cartomizer education?

    Thanks again. It's a great help.

    Sorry only polished for a while . The anodizer is having issues and he was the cheapest in town and everyone else want to charge 100$ per color no matter if its 1 0r 100 witch would make me have to charge more for the GLV. I do not want to up my price and sending them off to another state would only make getting a GLV take longer. I am looking into powder coating ..more colors. I will have polished models in stock this coming week

    I have to mimic what others have already said here, it doesn't want to leave my hand, or rather, my hand doesn't want it to leave.

    Vaping since last October, my only experience was the 901 (and a Joye 306 which didn't last long). When battery performance started declining I decided a big batt mod was in order. With the guidance of other forum members, I made the move to high voltage at the same time. Also made the move to cartomizers by modding the 901 batts and PT.

    I'm a fairly utilitarian person. I want my PV to vape well. It doesn't have to be a fashion statement. However, the offset atty that allows excellent placement of the button also affords a really cool visual. My son refers to it a the "e-bong" (no offense intended to anyone). Maybe most importantly, the GLV vaping experience has been enough to keep off analogs.

    I see a lot of members with an entire stable of PVs. Not me. I haven't seen or vaped anything better (IMO) and until jay comes out with GLV 2.0, I'm done looking.
