GLV 2 is here and pre-order is now open!!!

[NebulaBrot]

You will find this elsewhere in this thread and elsewhere in ECf. As a general rule, you can easily calculate watts. Volts squared then divide by ohms = watts. so: VxV/O=watts this is not exactly the most accurate but it is a convenient generalized guide to help you.

5 volts times 5 Volts divided by 3.1 ohms = 8.064 watts or 5x5/3.1=8.064

Some 5V devices use a regulator to bring the voltage down to 5 while others (GLV2) use a resistor. Most regulator style will meter read 5V at the connector. The GLV2 is designed to produce 5V under load so it is a bit stronger. Thus, you may find 3.1 ohms to be a bit hotter and you may want to try some 3.3 or 3.5 ohms rated attys and/or cartos.

I was wondering about the difference between regulator and resistor, thanks for clearing that up NebulaBrot.

I should finally add, as someone else will most likely do anyway, that many many GLV2 users (and others vaping @ 5V) really like regular 510 attys which are rated at 2.5 ohms. Personally, I find this too hot and it gives some of my juices a burnt taste. But I use higher VG level juice mixes and Vg burns at lower temps than PG.

If we plug the 2.5 ohms into the formula: 5x5/2.5=10 watts. As I said, many LOVE this and it REALLY is ALL about finding YOUR OWN sweet spot.

 

[lynleestar]

Grrr~! I want one of these so bad I can taste the sweet vape coming out of it~! One day, GLV2 w/matching mini you will be mine~!

 

[jaybird]

Very well written, much better than I could have written.

yeah he does that a lot lol.

im printing that post off for personal reference.
i was confused about the Ohms and you cleared that up. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

im sure ill be asking for more advice, i have learned that success in anything depends on listening to others who have experience.

Cole from Mississippi / ORDER #507

The people around here are always very helpful for sure. Iv never seen a vaping question go unanswered.

just ordered the 5V today! ive never even took one puff from an ecig etc..
the look, reviews, and videos convinced me to get a GLV. glad to see the forum and i hope yall can help a noob out.

how long is shipping?
been smoking marlboro lights for 20+ years and cannot wait to breathe better!!!!

Thx,
Cole from Mississippi

Shipping is around 3-5 days, but could be sooner. I am not in control of that any more..I got fired lol. Sara gives me the orders , I put them together , then she ships them out. Feel free to call me if you ever have any questions 248-346-3205.

[bigfoot]

Bigfoot, sorry about that wait but we had to wait for our new buttons to get in. I had to break into our emergency buttons , and I didn't want to send you a non clicky button when you have been using a clicky . Its a 6 week wait for buttons, but I got them in today. I made a post a few pages back, and tried to call you before i seen this post to let you know about the hold up. It's not Sara's fault its mine for not letting her know about the buttons. Anyway sorry for the hold up both orders will be in the mail tomorrow. So quick shipping on one order, and slower on the other..kinda evens out ? I'm just kidding btw. I do try the best I can to put them out as fast as I can, and keep parts in stock.

If you ever have an order question/GLV question always feel free to call me .248-346-3205...That's what I'm here for, and I love to do it.

 

[lynleestar]

awesome jay~!

 

[bigfoot]

Got it yesterday on the 12th.
Absolutely love it...nice refinements...works great.
Thank you

Something changed Jay?

Something changed Jay?

No he had a V1

 

[lynleestar]

Jay,

I sent you a message about a possible arrangement on a GLV2.

 

[Ghetto_Cowgirl]

Does this mean I can enter the contest again??

 

[badmemory]

Just received my second glv2 5v today, hits just as hard as my first one. Thanks Jay and Sara.

 

[Tendril]

Ordered

Thanks for the support on the phone

 

[jaybird]

Your very welcome .

After months of wanting, my wife ordered me a GLV-2 for my birthday (Dec 1) last Thursday. Woo Hoo! Can't wait.
