If you are mostly 1 type battery user (like me), then go for V2+
I agree, the stacking tubes make them quite tall, I got mine because they were included when I bought a Dani from the classifieds....but don't see me using them, the 18350 form factor is just the bomb...nice and small.
I would definitely go for the V2+ small, 22mm vs the 23mm of the 2380 is also a big plus as most atty's are 22mm, and if you need more battery power you can aways buy an extension tube.
I would have to add both extension tubes as I really like the battery life of the 18650. Having said that, the form factor in 18350 or 18490 is very nice. Which batteries do you use? I've found the efest 18350s/18490s seem to be "less than optimal" in the 2380T, or for that matter any of my devices. Thinking of switching to AW....
I got the Tensai's (also sold as enerpower), only brand my regular battery shop had in stock...they are ok, but would have bought AW if they had them.
I just looked up Groningen to see where it was in relation to Eindhoven (253 km - but you already knew that
). I spent a month and half in Eindhoven in 2003 working and enjoyed it immensely. Walked about a 5 km to and from work each day. Visited the Philips museum, there. I would like to visit again - perhaps when I visit my brother in Germany? Would be a long day trip, though.

Yes Eindhoven is pretty much on the other side of the country, luckily it's only a small country, so still relatively close by
The HQ of my former employer was located there, so I travelled there frequently...not my favorite part of the job lol.
And huh, 5km walking?? Didn't they tell you we all use bicycles around here

So I got my purple Efest 18350's today, well 2 of the 4 that I paid for, and charged them up and put one in my 2380. Ti coil about 0.32Ω @ 30 watts. So far it's performing well, I'm counting the puffs myself to see the drop.
This is my backup so it doesn't necessarily need to last a real long time.
BTW, I get tremendous service from my Samsung green 25R's
Edit: And of coarse I had to try stacked 18350's, oh that's what that other tube is for...LOL

My saga continues. I was initially working with CDV on the positive pin issue with the Dani. After several emails I finally asked CDV to either contact Dicodes or give me their email.
I did hear from Dicodes and by the serial number confirmed it is the spring loaded version. He did state their spring connection has a high spring force vs. other mods in order to ensure the best stable connection between the pin and atomizer. He did mention that he would send me another Dani Extreme v2+ but I don’t know if this will resolve the issue or not. He mentioned also about buying a Kabuki to use for test purposes.
CDV wanted me to contact HoH. Since there are several of you using the Kabuki with the Dani that do not have this issue, I didn’t think it was the Kabuki. CDV took it upon themselves regardless to contact HoH. Next thing I get an email from Stacie wanting to know if there was anything they could do to help so I told her about my experiences. She told me to hang tight and that Zen was exploring the issue. They think the issue lies with both devices and that they may not be a match made in heaven. Anyhow they are looking into it further to see if they can figure out a solution for me. I did buy extra positive pins on their Good Friday sale so I am all set in case I lose anymore. In the meantime I continue to use and enjoy the Dani and am just more aware to be careful when removing the Kabuki from it — athough sometimes I forget until after the fact

got me another nice deal on a Dicodes extreme from the local classifieds
the three on the left combined cost me less than 1 of the other 2 on the right....LOL...so couldn't resist snapping them up
Quite a nice collection you have!!!

Sorry to hear about all the hassle...at least both companies and the seller have an excellent track record in the service department, but I understand it's very troublesome, not what you want, certainly not with high end devices ...hope they can sort it quickly for you.
For what it's worth:I have 4 Kabuki's and 5 dani's (3 extreme's, a V2 and a v2+, as the prior pic already showed
, and never had any issues with any Kabuki on any Dani. So I think one of the devices is a little off.@drugarth - For whatever reason my thinking is that it is the Dani since the Bukis have not been an issue with my other mods. I have been using them since they first came out in early June. The Dani 510 connection is very stiff.
not sure it's in the stiffness...I also use the Buki's on the V2 and V1 editions, and they have no springloaded 510....and they still work fine (and sit flush).
If you need me to compare things (510 depth etc.) with one of mine let me know!

From the beginning since getting my 2380 I was eye balling that spring for the battery negative. I finally got around to measuring it's voltage drop. Not bad , not good, after all it's a spring. Here what I got, 0.1 - 0.12 volts drop with a 0.3 - 0.5Ω load (Ti). I can stop looking at it now.
I have a 2380 which uses the spring in the bottom of the one piece 18350 tube and a 2380-T which does not have a spring. On the 2380-T there is a small battery cap separate from the tube with a flat plate inside, like a MarK Bugs WAE. I prefer the 2380-T.
When I received my 2380, it had the same bottom cap as the 2380T. That's why I was asking. Sorry, it isn't a better picture.
