How about some new lavatube discussion?

[DavidTop]

I bought version 1 soon after it came out and loved it until I had a problem with the switch. After contacting I sent it back, you even found another problem with it that I didn't know I had, and received a replacement within a week and its been great for the past 7 months. Kudos on your great customer service.

I have a few questions on which other batteries might fit.

1) Which of the Panasonic 18650's will fit? I've heard good things about them but there are several different capacities and they make the same battery as a flat top and button top.

2) Can the trust/ultra fires be used?

3) What will the capacity of the AW18700's be?

Thanks and I'll be counting down the days.

DavidTop,

Sorry to hear you had an issue with your first LT, but glad to hear we got you taken care of and you had a good experience with CS.

Now for your questions:

1) We only recommend the AW IMR 18650's for the LT. I know Panasonic makes a bunch of different 18650's but most of them are protected Li-Ion (ICR) batts. Which have a protection plate built into the battery making them longer and they will not fit right. They also make unprotected Li-Ion batts, which should not be used in ecigs. Always use either protected batts or IMR's which are a safer chem batt.

2) Please refer to the answer to your last question.

3) AW has not released what the mAh of the 18700 IMR will be yet.

its not like the Tox at all. Other than it is a VV Tube device.

Plus the Tox looks a heck of a lot like our Lavatube 1.0. Which came out long before Vison ever came out with the Tox.

I made the mistake of buying a Tox, bad mistake, cost me nearly $30 to get out of that mess. To me the words Tox and Kalamazoo Vapor shop (my Tox vendor) is an insult to my Eyes/Ears.

I saw a review on the Tox. With the time/date thing being there and resetting every time you change the battery seems super annoying. Plus it looked like a pain to get into all of the menus. I'll be staying with Volcano, never been disappointed with their products.

This looks awesome! Just a question do you guys design it yourselves, or do you tell the manufacturer what you want, I am just curious about this. Also who makes this baby?

 

[JoeInferno]

yes Joe Volcano and Magma Mike personally design the look of it and set out what we want the device to have and send the specs to our manufacturer in China to make them.

We are not releasing who is making them for us, of everyone will be trying to get the new Lavatube from them. But we can say it is not L-rider for the LT 2.0

 

[Neloish]

Well in that case...

If this thing works as good as it looks (both pics and on paper), you sir are about to have a hit on your hands. Anyone have any ideas how I can convince my wife to let me buy ANOTHER VV device? Because I want.

 

[orachel]

Oh wow... NOT lrider? I thought it was. My only concern is at some point, I'd hope to see some reviews on previous pvs this company has made, to get an idea of the manufacturers track record and general build quality, just cause the nonsense with the smoking in 'standby' with the v 1.5s and a few other issues with recent clones has me freaked.

If you have any other questions please feel to ask. I will do my best to answer them as fast as I can.

What is the connection like on top? I know it's going to be a 510, but will is be "eGo" adaptable without or with a adapter?

 

[Joe_13]

I am going to grant you permission to send me one for quality control testing.

Please PM me for my address.

It's going to be a standard 510 connector. They are going to be offering an adapter that makes the connector more like the chrome Lavatube in the near future though.

 

[JoeInferno]

Nitro is correct, it is a standard 510 threaded connection. But we are working on an adapter that will match the body and have the spring pin connection like the Chrome Lavatube and will take ego threaded devices.

 

[Joe_13]

Any better idea on your target release date?

Any better idea on your target release date?

I think Joe already mentioned it would be the Monday after next so that would be the 16th I believe.

I just placed my order for my lavatube. it's my first VV mod. Any advice on how to use it? I have a Bella tank I use with a boge 2.0 ohm carto.

Congrats on your purchase of the original Lavatube. Here is the link to the instructions: Lavatube Starter Kit Instructions

With a 2.0ohm carto in your tank, you will be able to take it up to 5.0v before you hit the 2.5Amp limiter and it auto adjusts the voltage down.

 

[AvalonMyst]

Thanks Crack and Joel, gonna do some reading. Thank you for the links. Can't wait to try it at 5v. )
