It's just I can't wait to see the collection and get one
Me too.
As far as the protection device goes it sounds like the only difference is that one will buzz and the other wont.

I thought the same thing but that will not make the price diferent like 10$ between both , or what do you think !
What I think that the buzz one have maybe like saefty time since u will hear the buzz so that will warn you to stop and check the battery then you can use the buzz one for much longer before the fuse burn.
And the Fuss one will dierct burn , so you much chane it .
I dont know that what I thought , Will wait Matt to answer us and give the exactly answer lol
I remember one time when I left my batteries charging and forgot to take them out when I left home to work. By the time I noticed, I started getting paranoid hearing the stories of batteries exploding due to overcharge.
So the one thing that has been wandering in my mind is if we're able to leave the protection device on while it charges and if that will prevent an exploding battery.

About the Fuse-
Now called the Vape Safe and The Vape Sonic (buzzing version)
The Vape safe if just a 7 amp fast blow fuse, It's simple and extremely effective.
The Vape Sonic (audible buzzing version) buzzes. This is the only notable difference between the two.
We thought that a version that would somehow give an indication of the hard short would be good for novices.
It is not resettable. Those circuits take far too long to trip- 10-20 seconds (which is plenty of time for thermal snowballing)
They are also not nearly as reliable as a simple fuse.
Since this device is about safety, we thought it wise to use the simplest and most reliable method.
The Vape Sonic's Price difference is due to there being several more parts on the PCB (not just 1 simple fuse).
parts cost $ and termination of those parts costs $.

As far as Charging protection...
They can help in a charger. Most chargers have over current protection.
Over charging a Lion battery is highly unlikely, unless you've done something really stupid-
i.e. made your own charger the wrong way.
The fuse won't necessarily protect against over charging. It's not designed to.
What it can protect against, and the more common issue with chargers...
Reversed polarity in dual battery chargers. i.e. if one battery is in the right way and another in upside down.
This creates a hard short. Some but not all chargers protect against this.
Using the VapeSafe in a charger will prevent a hard short in this situation.

So as I said b4 both do the same thing the only different that one have tone and the other just fuse will burn.
But there is not different like the one with Buzz will not stay longer than other normal fuse .
Thanks for the Inforamtion Matt.
Hey Matt.
I know you guys are coming out with a V2 shankless pipe in the near future. Does that mean you have sold all the original pipes with shanks? Will these no longer be available?
Thanks.

No, the shankless pipes are just an addition to the new line of V2 pipes.
Pipes with shanks will still be made as usual, in many different wood types etc.
The main advantage of the shankless is that it's more affordable.
oh... also the shanked pipes will have the V2 button design.
Watch our most recent video and maybe that will help clear things up ->

Hey Matt, have you thought about finding a way to get a kick in one of your pipes? It would take a lot a work, but a kicked pipe would be quite awesome haha.
I'm not really sure why people keep asking for this. The Kick is not intended for this kind of set up at all.
We have VV pipes using the eGo booster, which doesn't detract from the bowl size or form factor and achieves the same thing.
Where as the Kick requires 1/3 of the battery compartment, 1/3 of the space normally designated to the battery for mAh.
I see how the Kick can be useful in 18650 standard metal mods. But that is about it.
The eGo booster provides the same result without reducing battery sizes, and can work with virtually any mod given the right adapters.
It really wasn't a hard decision on which product to go with. The eGo booster is simply the one that was designed to work with what we are doing.
Just a quick survey question for the folks out there...
Which is more important when it comes to a mod,
Power capacity or the size of the mod?
We are looking into some new designs and technology.
The problem is the same as usual. If the mod is a comfortable small pocketable size, the battery life is too short.
If the battery life is 1+ days or more the mod becomes bulky and awkward to hold or carry.
Finding a balance between the two is tricky. Ultimately 1 aspect will be sacrificed to the other, even if it's close.
So which is more important- Compact size or 1 day+ battery life?
This is for R&D on a new VV mod we are developing.

IMO my answer is both, mods for 26650 and 18650 battery to me are coffee table and work bench mods.
Smaller batteries are more on the go for me.
Bigger mods offer more canvas as far as being creative goes.

I will give my answer as how I se the Pipe , Until now I've didnt use e-pipe to give my answer from that view.
But as my Father one of the big fan I've even sen for pipe and he have almost all models "mean old Clasical models" So I believe that Pipe is about the model and how pipe look like so am with Compact size , as pipe found for how it's look like even in normal smoke way you can just keep puff from your pipe al the time without take break ! Even in Continuous u can take from normal pipe more than 3-4 puff in the same time .
So I prefer to keep pipe as it's look care for look more than battery life , as Vape you can use any mode all the time but Pipe is a MOOD more than just Vape.
That my point of view and sorry if some will not like it .
P.S : Even as battrey in most we keep 1 as spare , so that even more than enough !!
I forget : I Vote for Small size or Normal Pipe Size

As much as I like the complex shapes etc of the custom pipes and the convenience of a bigger battery, the size of it is equally important for me. I don't use the pipe for out and about, and as such will always have access to batteries at home if I need to swap one out.
I vote for the smaller size..

For me I guess it would be the size of the pipe over the battery life. Extra batteries are fairly inexpensive.
I've seen other pipe mods where the pipe seemed excessively large in order to accommodate the battery.
Your pipes look natural and are not too large and that is what I would prefer.
