Jay built and shipped mine I guess on Monday. Got it this morning. I had just convinced my dad to try out a 510 kit when the package came. I opened mine up, inserted battery, filled cart, vaped like a ...., and then gladly handed my dad my 510 kit. Nuff said. Great work Jay! Thanks a million!

BTW- does anyone know if the USB on my car stereo will push enough power to charge this badboy so that I could passthrough wile driving?

Isn't it grand! I'm doing 25 rings consistently. On car... get this:

Car DC to USB Adapter 1000mA

1amp will drive it nicely.

I just got my Bartleby today, and have been vaping on it ever since. It's an outstanding unit, can't say enough good things about it. Jay, the guy who makes them, really has created a winner, I couldn't be more pleased. I paid less for this than I did for my first 510 kit, and this unit will cover all aspects that the kit provides, with more vapor, but without having to have two atomizers and 2 batteries.

This is the unit I will recommend for now on. Good work Jay!

Same here. Got more 'xmas presents/backups' today ;-) They are consistent in quality and the vapor exceeds all other PV's I have. I also got a Protege today and the bartleby is putting out a tad more vapor - but both are super.

As far as 'will cover all aspects" of a 510 kit... and more! It also covers the need for a PCC and PT as well. That battery lasts longer than 5 charges on a PCC and the charging cord (not included) double as a PT although you really wouldn't need it. I still use the cord in the car though. That initial voltage packs a punch, so I like that when I leave the car. ;-)

Another 2 days shipping - over Sunday even! 1 day actually. Mich to Ohio.

Jay has asked me to let you folks know that the painted Bartlebys are not currently available, but they likely will be available in the spring.

It is my favorite Nicostick clone due to the advanced lithium battery charging controller it has. Folks use that controller commercially to build $30-50 dedicated lithium battery chargers, but you get one built in to your NS clone. :thumb:

I use mine everyday. It's my traveling vape. I prefer the Chuck at home for pure grunt, but the Bartleby delivers most of the grunt in a far more practical package.

I'm with you. I just got mine yesterday and it is great. I like the on and off switch it fits nicely in the hand and the button placement is perfect. I have a 510, 901, AAA 10400 torch mod and now the Barleby with a 901 atty. The 14500 batts are a good fit better than the 10400. I would recommend this to anybody. For the price you can not beat it.I just changed my batt vaped from 5:00pm till 1:00pm today. I walk around with it in my hand.

Same here - but I'm still 'trying out' my Protege which I just got yesterday - it's a beaut. And if there's any "request" I'd make with the bartleby - I'd love to see a nice brushed metal casing or even a black matte on metal. I had Jay recess my lights and that looks nice, imo.

I like the regular switch but it's a bit protruding so in carry mode, the on/off switch option is another perfect addition.

Mountain Dude and xybe,

Glad to see Jay mentioned 'in the Spring' - appears he's making more than 100, which he's likely reached already. And having one in Uraguay is pretty cool ;-)

Wow! After seeing the good reviews, and noticing that cybervex was local I decided to get a couple 510 versions to celebrate my two week vaping birthday.

Jay was great to deal with. Instant communication and very accommodating when I told him I was trying to get these before the weekend. I got them home last night, popped a spring cart in one and a ptb in the other and have been vaping like crazy ever since.

I find it to be a perfect size. As was said in another review, i can cover the whole thing in my hand for stealth vaping. Although, there's nothing stealth about these massive hits. It delivers enough power to get a great cloud off a quick three second toke, which I really like, and it doubles as a fog machine on longer hits. Every hit is exactly the same. It's very professionally constructed and I especially like the big manual button. It's got a reliable feel to it with a good spring action.

Bye bye 510 batteries. I wish I could say it's been nice knowing you but...

Thanks, Jay, for the great service and a fabulous little device.

what type of payment does he take
and what else do i need to buy and were:?:
really want one
ready to buy if can get more info:p

You'll receive the Bartleby with two 14500 batteries. It uses one of those, so you'll have a spare.

If you get the 510 style, you'll need to tell Jay that, so email him:
cybervex@gmail.com and get the payment method. Then get:

510 atomizer (suggest getting 2)
510 Atomizers

510 (suggest "flat" whistle tips)
510 Carts 5-Pack

A usb to mini usb charging cord
Amazon.com: Cables To Go - 27005 - 2M USB 2.0 A/Mini-B Cable (Black): Musical Instruments

1 amp wall and car adapters for charging(needs to be 1amp for using as a passthrough):
Cignot your Midwest Electronic Cigarette store.
top 2 items

A nice small case would be nice
Amazon.com: Tamrac Neo's Mobile Phone Case- Black: Electronics

The cart tip sticks up out of the case like the phone antenna. Very compact - fits in shirt pocket. Always turn the Bart. off when carrying.

What about this $13 Powerjolt Dual Universal 2 USB Blk Car Charger? It's described here in a bit more detail on the manufacturer's website.

Hi Don,

The problem with some plugs is that they don't really tell you the needed data - in the case of using a charger with a passthrough it needs 5V - 1amp (sometimes written 1000ma) up to 2amp - at least that's what I've read.

But a 5V 1amp output for a dual usb plug is only 500ma per port. And that will underrun a PT.

There is no amperage noted for the Griffin but I know they have one dual usb wall plug that is 500ma for each port, so I'd have to see the full specs in order to buy this one. There have been many that have been posted here for wall and car and I have the Belkin dual usb for the car

Amazon.com: Belkin Dual USB Car Charger for iPod (Black): Cell Phones & Service


... and only one of the ports are good for the PT, the other for a corded usb charger. A full dual port for 2 people vaping at 1amp a piece:

And for anyone going with this plug, (it's china so the shipping will be a week - but it's cheap shipping) while you're there get this, with the US plug:
