Dear jesus, the kit expensive!
If it's 15$ on alibahaha for just the mod, I expect to see it sold for 30-40$

Still waiting :(

I'm really hoping the kits are sold elsewhere for cheaper than madvapes has them stocked, or the batteries themselfs will be stocked somewhere.
well defdock, i found a website that is selling the entire kit for $52.08. that's more reasonable that madvapes at least. www.vapingmall.com

huh, weird........i have the kit sitting in my shopping cart. i have an account from last year when i ordered their hammond version of the dna200. why isn't it letting you register? maybe you're filling a field in incorrectly? are you in a state that vapingmall won't ship to?

Nice to hear from you. This is Jenny from Artery. Sorry for late reply. We are having holiday now.

May I know that where are you from? If you come from America, I think you can purchase from the local vendor: Madvape.com. Because our MOQ is 20pcs.

If you need any help, please feel free to contact me. Thank you.

Thank you for the response.

One more question, do you have a MAP agreement with madvapes? As it seams their prices are really high
What Is Minimum Advertised Price?

OK, I see. Thank you.

Our MSRP(Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price)for Stainless Steel Gold Rush Kit is $76.19. But we can't control the selling price of customer. I will let company to know the situation and try to negotiate with them. Thank you for your feedback.
For the Arteryusa.com, it's my boss who negotiates with the charged person. I don't know that. But when it starts to run, I will inform you.

wow, madvapes are a bunch of scumbags trying to make a quick buck. i'd send them an email defdock. askin what's up with the price gouging.

edit.......maybe madvapes has some sort of coupon code we're missing????? if one is found that brings the price down CONSIDERABLY, i will retract my above scorning of madvapes.

edit 2......i just checked my spam folder and i did get a response from artery on Jan 27. here it is.

For those interested, I was successfully able to purchase a Gold Rush Kit from VapingMall (I think I got really lucky and came across it the day they listed them as available) and I received it about 4 days ago. It cost me $52 with free shipping and it seems as if VapingMall keeps them in their direct inventory because the mod shipped from either NC or SC and I received it in WA State about 4 days later. If you're interested in one, I would definitely hold out until they get more in-stock, rather than buying them at the ridiculous $70+ price point madvapes wants.

$52 honestly isn't a bad price at all for this setup when you consider it's more capable than the Mini Volt and the Mini Volt full setup sells for around the same price (Mod + Vengeance tank)

The mod has so far actually blown my expectations out of the water. I haven't had any issues what-so-ever with the mod. I took it out of the box, primed my coil, filled up the tank, put the tank on the device, set the device to wattage mode and boom, functioned without issue.

I've been using the mod with the 49er tank and 0.5ohm Kanthal coil as well as a Derringer Clone with a 0.4ohm build on it and both work great. The mod has one of the best coil detection systems I have ever seen. Whenever you screw in a new atomizer the device immediately asks if it's a new coil or old coil and doesn't allow you to proceed without selecting an option. Build quality is better than expected. No odd defects, scuffs or even button rattle. The battery life is also a lot better than I had expected. Oh and the menu navigation on this device is actually superb. It's extremely easy to switch between wattage, TC Ni and TC Ti. It's also super easy to set the sleep time or turn the sleep function off completely. I'd love to see these guys make some full-sized, higher wattage mods with whatever chip and menu system their using because it's actually very good.

The 49er tank has also exceeded my expectations. I haven't messed around with the tank that much, but that's part of the beauty...it just works and it works well! The top fill design on this tank is simple...but it has some of the largest fill ports I have ever seen on a top fill tank. You could fit any dripper or bottle tip in the fill ports and fill it up. You could almost fill a turkey baster with ejuice and fit it in the fill ports. I'm getting great flavor from the 0.5 Kanthal coil in the tank and the coil heads are not leaking. Wick holes on the coils are pretty huge as are the juice control ports within the tank, so even when chain vaping back to back I haven't gotten any dry hits. I think I like this 49er tank more than I like the Kanger Subtank Mini and that's saying something.

I've only had it for four days, so it's not yet possible to tell if it has any sort of long-term issues, but at this point I am fairly confident is saying that the device and tank are worth buying.

The only issue I can think of off-hand is that I cannot find a source for replacement coils for the 49er tank. I'm also unsure if there's any other manufacturers coils you can use within the tank, so that may prove to be an issue pretty soon.

Thanks for the review. Any experiences with Temp control that's my main interest in this box?

I wish I could help you with that, but I have yet to mess with the temp control. I actually don't have any intentions to mess with temperature control until the stainless steel update is available. It came with an Ni200 coil but I avoid the use of Nickle coils as much as possible. I have some stainless steel sitting right here ready for a simple build though.
