Hi folks, just wanted to crow a little bit - got my VTube Kit in today from Apollo & I'm delighted with it. I'm also amazed it got here so fast! Ordered it Sunday night/Monday morning, they shipped it from California that evening & it was in my mailbox at 4:00 this afternoon. I got the SS model & glad I did, they're probably all well-built but this thing looks & feels nice & stout. Oh, and it vapes like a dragon! Gotta get busy & mix a new batch of celebratory juice of some sort. Let the games begin!
:D

Yay Warren!! They're an oustanding deal for that price. Apollo ships quick, don't they. And kudos to the USPS. Vape one for me too!

Yes indeed - excellent deal, fast shipping, and right now I'm so pleased with the USPS I'll even forego my customary crack about ... naw, I said I'd forego that crack. At the moment I'm chain-vaping enough DIY Peach Brandy juice for both of us in the 3 Ohm atty that came with the Kit, playing with different voltages, etc. I've also tried this and a couple other flavors in 2 Vivi Novas (different resistance heads) & a 2.2 Ohm Stardust. The Stardust skirt seems too long to fit into the VTube's recess made for it so I used an extension. It's an earlier Stardust with the short wick so I don't know if this will matter with the newer ones. Anyway it doesn't matter... I'm happy as a dead pig in the sunshine!

Happy Vaping!

Awesome! I wish I had your luck though! I also ordered my Vtube kit Sunday night from Apollo. Shipped out from CA on Monday afternoon. It is now Thursday and it still has not arrived!!!!

On the tracking page it popped up yesterday that a notice of attempt to deliver had been left on my door. I checked- no notice anywhere! I was home all day and I never saw/heard anyone knock.

I went over to the post office this morning. They told me it should be out on the truck to be delivered. I showed them a print out of what it showed on the website and the supervisor told me she does not know why it is showing that way. Per the tracking, it shows arrival at the post office at 10:49am on Wednesday and then the notice of delivery attempt shows at 3:45pm on Wednesday. She told me there is no way it made it on a truck if it arrived at the post office at 10:49am. The delivery trucks are already out.

I am crossing my fingers that it arrives today. I am so impatient. Sorry for my little rant here, but I am so ready to try this thing out! I have also had some problems in the past receiving something I ordered online. Twice this has happened where the package never arrived even though it said it had on the website. Luckily those times the shipper newly sent me the item.

Please, please, please Post Office- bring me my PV today!

*UPDATE*

Yay! I just received my Vtube kit. I have the batt in the charger (i know they come partially charged, but I want it fully charged) and I can't wait to try this thing out! Anyone know about how long it should take to fully charge the batt?

Anyway, I feel like a kid! I will give you an update of what I think about it.

jasonmcroy : hurry up and report back. I'm a day behind you with my order and can't wait to hear how you get on with it.

lol! I am STILL waiting for this batt to charge up. I have had it on the charger since 2:00pm. It is not 7:00pm. I have read in a couple of places it could take 6-7 hours! I am definitely ordering another batt or two tomorrow!

I will post back when it's done charging and I can crank out some vapor! :)

*UPDATE*

Ok guys. The battery finally completed charging and I fired up the new Apollo Vtube.

I unfortunately only have the dual coil mega carts to try it with for now. I bought an adapter so I could use those until I can order a tank this weekend. However, the vapor is soooo much better than with my ego type battery and the TH was just what I needed.

I can't wait to try this out with a higher resistance tank and see what effects I get.

It did come with an atty that I am going to try in a little bit. I am nervous because I have never used an atty before. It came with a drip tip so I have looked online for some instructions on how to use it and I will give it a go.

I am happy with it so far! Now I will have to see how much time I get out of the battery that came with it. I can't wait to get a back up batt for it too.

Later!

You should get an easy 12 hours or more on the 1600mah it comes with. I usually don't let mine drain below 3.7 or 3.8V, but I have another one, so....

You're getting limited to 3.7 or 3.8V on the dual coils. It's better than the 3.4V ego, but you ain't seen nothing yet.
The atty is o.k. for a no-name. Blow it out through the mouth end to make sure there's nothing from the factory in it.

Then drip 3 drops on that thick "bridge" inside and let it soak in for about 30 seconds.

Then, drip 2 or 3 more drops in the same spot. Avoid letting the juice drip down the sides.

Put your drip tip on, and vape. You'll get about 5-6, or so, hits before the vapor thins and/or it starts tasting burned.

Drip in 3 more drops through the drip tip and repeat.

If you overfill it, it will start leaking around the bottom. Just take it off, blow it out and try again.

The included atomizer is 3ohms, so you can get the full range of voltages with it.

I ordered mine on Tuesday morning and mine shipped that day. Not likely to be here tomorrow unfortunately, but am hopeful.

I ordered some ViVi Nova Clearomizers and they should be here around the same time (hopefully).


and post some pics because our setups are almost exactly the same!!!

I got mine, California to Florida, in 3 days. They ship priority, IIRC. Unless you live in the woods where even the P.O. is reluctant to tread, you should have yours by tomorrow. Have you tracked it?
BTW, you're gonna love the Vivi Nova, if it's the V2.

I am tracking and hoping it hits TX tonight and possible delivery tomorrow.

I got the Vivi Novas for the screw on top. I travel a fair amount for work and I would not be happy if I had a tank leak in my laptop bag. I've heard / read some good / bad about the early heating units and am hoping that I get some of the newer ones. If not, I understand that most vendors will have the newer ones soon and the issue goes away.

I only got one for now as I only use one juice. I'll probably pick up a couple more as I add to the juices that I use. I'm looking forward to retiring my very well worn eGo-T

Glad you like it. Did you get the stainless? I ordered that one as it's eGo bits compatible. Still clicking on my shipping like a possessed fiend. Hope it comes tomorrow as I leave for a six day work stretch tomorrow afternoon.

No, I went for the lower end and got it in black. I ordered an adapter they sell to use with my DC Mega carts until I can order the Vision 5ml Nova clearomizer this weekend (hopefully someone will have them in stock- Madvapes is out of stock at the moment) and a spare batt.

I am getting much better flavor and TH from the DC's on this Vtube than I was with the Ego batt.

Thanks for the information- I was doing it wrong. I did blow out the factory juice first at least and I did 5 or 6 puffs without inhaling when I dripped the first time before inhaling. Man, tasted like feet! lol

I was only putting 3 drops in total though. From that I could only get 3 or 4 puffs (second and third with little vapor) before no vapor.

I will try what you said a little later on. Funny, I used my Desert Ship flavor (my fav at the moment) and the atomizer made it taste more like cotton candy. I like cotton candy at least. :)

Good to hear on the batt. That should work out for me until I get the back up.
