Nice, thanks for that..... I know one thing that helps is the $1 shipping.... Didn't even know about the V2 until recently....
Alex,
"V2" is sort of a bogus designation. The L-Rider Version 2.0 LTs being sold now are upgrades
only in external finishes and end caps. The internals are still the same as the original V1, with the woefully inadequate 2.5 amp limit.
Uniq and Young June manufacture what they call Version 1.5, which has the old-style body and caps with upgraded internals---3.2 amp limit and very spiffy resistance checking. Those are available now from
crystalclearvaping in barebones, at a very reasonable price, and
smokeforpennys as a full kit.
L-Rider manufactures what they call Version 3.0, which has upgraded all-metal end caps (but
not with the ego-style connector and spring-loaded center pin---that one still has Version 1's crappy internal electronics). Version 3.0 has a 4.0 amp limit with the same ergonomic implementation of resistance checking and is available now from
vaporbeast in a very inexpensive full kit.
