Sorry yes...You would be better asking bob trish, as he has the clouper :) But as for the appearance it looks quite a nice mod !
Thanks! I prefer the wattage range on the iVP, but if this other mini works at true wattage (as I expect it does) I can cope with 7W as I mostly used 6.5-7 on the MVP2, and it's a neater size close to the iStick.
Alternatively, I suppose I could just stay with the iStick! :laugh: ....I think the colour of the iVP blue one was what I liked a lot, and the 5W start. MyEpack said they weren't sent any gold or blue ones, so perhaps rumours about the colour finishes having problems is correct.

I see FT now has iStick copies as well as the Smart-20 - but what I just noticed is that it states 2.0-20.0W ..but that's not so on them - or is there something I'm not understanding?

Trish,
1st stinking cold a little bit better, not so much coughing, but now going through paper towels as nose is like a tap, I suppose tomorrow, I'll be all bunged up :(
2nd the Cloupor Mini maybe a bit too much power for you with the 7w starting figure, also be careful with the IPV one : see next comment

IPV Power
Had got some MBV Cinnamon Roll to try, in the dripper it was a bit strong, but nice, so have decided to put it in one of my Lemos along with 20% Whipped Cream to soften it out, and as i had just finished off a clearo on the IPV thought, it's going to look massive on that, so switched a KFL+ with Posset in from the Pyra (DNA30) to the IPV, Pyra had been set at 13w, so set the IPV to 13w, just tried it and UGH a horrible burnt juice taste, have had to turn the IPV down to 11w to get the same as I was getting on the Pyra - so it looks like the IPVs are almost as bad as the iSticks with over power.

BUGGER!!!
Popped out for some milk and got red carded by royal fail.It was gone half past three and i was back home at ten to four.
So down the sorting office in the morning for me,Lemo will have to wait.
The French guy saying he's never paid VAT.Look at the post mark on the parcel i have on the way.
Do customs fall for that and let it 'thru do you think?

It's a bit small but it says.."Swiss Post"

I am starting not to trust chinese made so called low power mods, because to get 2w @ 3v your coil would have to be 4.5 ohms or more , it's a bit better on the IPV Mini because at 3V & 5w coil would have to be at least 1.8 ohm

Oh dear, you paid the extra dollar for Swiss (I am the slowest) Post - All of us have never paid VAT on stuff from FT - they tell porkies on the customs form.
Try importing something from the US that's over $30 then you'll get hit

Trish,

Ugh! sorry to hear that - colds may be termed 'common' but they're miserable things! Never sure which is worst: repeatedly blowing a sore nose or trying to clear a blocked one! (The Fluticasone in Pirinase Hay Fever is quite good at clearing 'stuff'!)

2nd the Cloupor Mini maybe a bit too much power for you with the 7w starting figure, also be careful with the IPV one : see next comment
I've been OK with the 7W on the MVP2's and was using mostly 1.8ohm coils ...still, not sure that 7W is what I was getting now!!! All a bit befuddling as to which way they work.
I've got used to using the iSticks as low as they'll go depending on the coils.
If the Cloupor mini does operate at an accurate wattage, I may be OK with that too?

I don't think they're actually on sale yet though, so would need to see a few reviews of them!

Oh! Not good then! I did think that when I read that thread about them, someone said they worked accurately in the right mode ...but I know very little about these things and prefer to rely on the judgement of the three of you!

One thing I don't like on an iStick is LCCC: it doesn't taste as nice, so lives on an iPow set at 6.5 or 7W and tastes fine. Thinking about your nasty tasting Posset, I wonder if lemon ones don't like heat too high if it was giving out more than indicated?

Why do they state it's 2-20W though? is that all rubbish?

I've been reading a thread about the Cloupor one and saw this post: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...2629-cloupor-mini-mod-30w-4.html#post14821532

I also saw this: SMOK XPRO M series box Mods | China e cigarettes wholesale Supplier

For the size, and being a proper 'mini' the Cloupor ones looks neatest.

Bob, I think that is exactly what happened to me the other night with my IPV, When i got a burnt taste ! I thought i had gone through another tank of juice, but when i went to refill there was plenty left. So i backed off the watts by about 3 or 4 and it has been fine since.

Evening all.

Good news and great news.

First the good news, my MBV order arrived today - all 30ml bottles as they promised. I've got tons of coffee now for my morning vape.
Bit more good news, the 2 iSticks from FT have been posted.
Extra good news, my Zeus juice order (I'd forgotten about that one) has landed in the UK - I'll be well stocked up on their signature juice when that arrives.


Now the great news .....














My












Hana










has









landed in the UK :laugh:



It's now showing on the RM tracking page. So any day now Terry, any day now :laugh:

No Bob,i just paid for the items,no extra.Didn't even know there were options.I do now.It was my first order.

I bought an istick from a company called evokoo(i think).They were cheaper than FT.Took for ever to be posted,wouldn't recomend them.
When the item arrived it was marked "Metal pipe".And listed value was $0.00.

@Ian

People will be thinking i'm on commission at Kraken but todays offer is 25% off all DIY supplies,don't know if it's of any interest.

Cheers mate.

To be honest, I'm pretty well stocked up now. But someone else might be glad to hear about it, even if you are on commission :laugh:

Looking at them links trisha, they have THESE At ali express, and are a good price, though i don`t know much about them, i think they are similar to the IPV mini :)

Damn it, i had forgot that link isn`t allowed on here. If you go to ali express and type in their search box ZEN ZNA 30 it comes up george, they have got some at 31 quid. :)

They sell those down my local B&M for more than twice that.Seems a good deal Terry.
