thank you. Great review. Have you tried dual coil low res cartos? Those are the only ones that keep up with me. I've been looking at this and wondering ( I don't have lots of 65 dollars to toss around ).
Ditto to mikey. Dual coils will only work when it's not "acting up.". Honestly, if it wasn't for this issue I would say absolutely yes and recommend this unit. But, until they get this ironed out I wouldn't really be able to recommend. For $65 I want to be able to use LR stuff at 3.7. So basically it takes away the 3.7V option from it. Now not every unit has this issue, some have not...so it's a crap shoot. But hen its working it vapes like A MACHINE (wait...it is a machine...u know what I mean). The problem is you can't use LR unless your batts r half dead :(

So i just came across another con :( i had a leaky grande hooked up to this and over time it leaked into the gripper inbetween the space that connects both sides of the unit. Juice was coming out of the button, dripping down the battery.

Leaky parts = not good with the gripper

I got you beat. Last night I go to put the batteries in the charger to charge it. Before I even get it plugged in (Mind you both batteries were in the correct direction) I get this horrible smell in the house like that burning electronic/burning battery stink. I go to the charger and the battery is about 1000 degrees....so I quickly grab a pen to lift under the battery to flick it out of the charger and stop the connection. It completely melted the spring (Which is a fail safe the charger is meant to do in case of catostrophic failure) Not that this has anything to do with the MOD or anything, just probably a bad battery or charger...just thought it was funny the luck I've had with this mod. Mind you, I LOVE this mod when it works properly, it reminds me SOO much of my Tekk mod which to this day is one of my favorite all time mods. I just hope they can get the issues it has ironed out.
