OK
I've read the first 3 and last 3 pages of this thread (I don't have time to read 70 pages!!)
I would be in for 2 minis, one extention cap, 4 18350 batts ( if they are good batts, otherwise I can buy the batts separately myself) and one charger (that can do 18350 and 18650, again I can buy the charger elsewhere if that's an issue)
All this predicated on having in hand NLT early April (they are b-day gifts)
I will subscribe to this thread and keep up from now on.
Thanks for everything and all your time and work.
Ed
Oh didn't you hear?
I'm excluding all of the men and inviting all of the women to my little $20 LT mini w/extension party!!

Everyone will be contacted once I finished negotiations.
Thanks Shekinahsgroom,
Yeah, I intend to read through the entire thread, but it will take a few days, I can only devote a few minutes at a time.
Just reading your posts is a great idea to save time. The link you provided doesn't work. It comes back with no matches found.
I will skim through the tread just reading your posts first.
thanks
ED
Think you need to clarify what KIND of 18650 before posting your comment.
All of the original size LT kits come equipped with 18650 batteries.
The LT also has a protection circuit built right into the regulator, so it can handle unprotected 18650's OR high drain IMR's.
But I haven't verified yet if 18650 protected cells will fit though.
Is that what you're referring to, Jimi?
And how many people in here think that an LT isn't worth $20?
Cuz that's what we're ALL looking at spending to own one.....I just got the news this morning.
We are being allowed to order just the LT, for a measly $20 each....NO LIMIT! I can order 1 or any many as my heart desires. Batteries are $2.50 each....through L-Rider.
Just an update....
I've asked L-Rider for references, but they've yet to respond.
Chinese new year starts on the 23rd, so there could be a delay period as their holidays are significantly longer than ours.
I've also spoken with several CEO's with various vendors, but none are willing to offer specifics pertaining to their satisfaction or dissatisfaction in the areas of question. I just receive a general response....no details. No real help there so far.
I've also not received any additional supplier responses for spreadsheets, so it may come down to just 2 choices....L-Rider or Uniq. So we may have to take a vote when this thread is complete, as to which one to go with?
But in either case, and I cannot reiterate this fact enough....THERE'S A RISK no matter which way you decide.
But I'll do my best to give everyone the most facts that I'm able to obtain before you make your decisions.![]()
GOOD NEWS!!
They're building the extension for the mini!!
But I don't have a completion date yet....
Their new year holiday runs 10 days, but I may still be able to communicate with my contact during that time.
Stay tuned....
Hi Ed,
I would prefer that EVERYONE start from the opening page and read through the entire post!!
There's a lot of very valuable information in this thread, from many members, that's worth taking the time to read through all of it. Just remember the page number you leave off on, so you can continue reading without backtracking, when you return.
If you just want the summarized version of my updates, then here's a link to just my postings. All of which have been confined to just the "LT interest" thread:
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/search.php?searchid=7923937
This is going to be an unusually long process (approx 30 days total; 2/10/12) due to the complexities of the current situation with L-Rider and the manufacturing of newer versions of the LT and possible custom upgrades.
The organization of the actual coop could take considerably longer (beyond the inital 30 days of this interest thread), in part, due to the interest level and the logistics involved.
Yes, please make sure that you've read through the information provided so that you're able to make an informed decision when the time comes.
Thanks for your cooperation.

Keep in mind folks that everything is speculation until he negotiates a final deal. At that time, he will announce the official co-op thread. Until then, this is just an interest/feeler thread.![]()

You wouldn't read the first 3 pages and the last 3 pages of $20-$30 book and expect to know what the book was about, would ya?
LOL, I was wondering how many times you were gonna count "the changes" before asking yourself, "What am I doing?"......
Kudos for doing all that work, Sonic. But until negotiations are complete, it won't matter how many times people change their mind about what they want, there's nothing that's been set-in-stone yet.
So until there is, your 'interest' is all that should be counted.
I've stated it multiple times and so has Sonic everytime he posted an update, but yet people still pop into the middle of this coop asking questions that have been answered many times over.
So for those of you that have asked questions that 'seemly' have gone unanswered....believe me, they've been answered. It just gets old for everyone in here to have to repeat themselves, when EVERYONE should start on page 1 and start reading.....

Yes, it's time consuming....but please, do your homework, it's for your own benefit to be WELL informed!!

I want 3,000 mini and 3,000 regular LT. I want them all to be bedazzled. I want the super extension cap that hold a car battery in it. $20 for this sounds good. LOL, JK!![]()
and, I am a girl... so I am first in line for whatever the outcome is![]()
