You could still also try the 3.5Ohm io6 on the Lavatube. I find it works pretty good between 5 and 5.5 volts on a Buzz. ...actually to be more accurate, it works freaking *awesome*

After fiddling with a couple high end rebuildables, and i do mean "fiddling" as in lots of time learning setups with some success, I realized how great conventional attys really are in terms of vapor production and even flavor; like your typical SR 901, 510, 306.
THEN i tried an i06.....
Now that's vapor and FLAVOR. and easy as hell....
except for the d/t heheh... try it on a bottom feeder to solve that, but honestly there are some fixes for the d/t, some d/t diy mods and hopefully an improved upgraded d/t.

Anyone know when the XLR 510 Atties will be back in stock? I always seem to miss them.
Ack! Just as I'm finishing my order, the site goes down for maintenance! Hopefully back soon....
He is busy spreading the magic sprinkles, plus the Ikenelves are adding the new toys!!
What toys?!??
Sorry guys,It's been more of a 'bad' news situation.
From those nasty fraudulent charge-backs from the Philippines, There was 5 total and two from the US now totaling $4,500 in transactions alone, not counting lost product. Well, our credit card processor didn't appreciate that so much. So after 3 years IKV is now labeled as high risk and they're giving us 2 weeks before shutting us down. Our merchant provider has found a new bank for us, but they want 7.95% off every transaction. That's just robbery, but in all honesty I'm willing to do it, but have found alternatives yesterday.
The major issue is that our processor has been showing absolute zero activity since the 30th of March, meaning for all the orders we have been taking in since, we haven't been paid Anything. so every order we pack and dispatch is purely on my dime. We're owed $10,500.00. It's as if our back end was down for 2 weeks plus dispatching orders. You can imagine how difficult it is to run like that, we're talking over 500 orders shipped basically for free and at the cost of products, shipping supplies etc while paying to keep the business running. It definitely doesn't bode well considering I just purchased our first house this month.
I had spent the day tracking this stuff down and as it turns out..Well, when you make an order through us, it goes to Authorize.net, which sends it to Digital financial group, which sends it to Merchant-now, which is then sent to Cts holding, then to us. My merchant provider is merchant-now financial, he said the processor is NOT actively looking to shut ecigs down but we have been flagged by the risk department and they could be holding all of our funds. To find out more, I started calling calling everyone in the circle and the odd thing is, is that none of the mention groups knew what I was talking about and at the end they wanted to connect me back with Merchant-now. Extremely frustrating and confusing. I wish had cool super secret toys for you guys for this down time, but this is the ugly truth
and I can't really re-open till I know the payments start coming through or I can get a grasp on what is exactly happening.Sincerely,
Isaac
As we discussed yesterday not only are the crooks robbing you blind your own financial institutions are doing it as well, and that IMO amounts to a double wamy. I hope you can find another merchant account at reasonable rates. Wrt the guy that wants you back, well you can tell them to kiss your you know what, and please do not wash it. They had there chance and they blew it, next time you may not be as fortunate.
With all the woes of the past year, you don't need this sheet anymore my good buddy. Time to get IKV back on track towards prosperity

Wish I can, but you can't exactly bite the hand thats holding your investments. I don't think this theft going on, but to hold 2 weeks (and counting if I didn't pull the plug) is just strange even if this is a 'risk' case.As we discussed yesterday not only are the crooks robbing you blind your own financial institutions are doing it as well, and that IMO amounts to a double wamy.

I know, and the worst part is, if this is theft, who do I tell and recover the missing funds? A lawyer that would cost probably double that? I really think merchant-now is on our side here, but it just doesn't make sense.How is all of that even possible?
I just don't know what to say...I feel terrible that this is happening to you Isaac. You are such a genuinely good person (hard to find) and deserve much better. Amber and I wish you all the best my friend !!
Thanks a million Marcus to you and Amber
We'll figure out a way out of this bind my man. There's a few options to choose from even if we have to count it all as a loss. we'l get through it my friend.

Good people ALWAYS find a way, we just wanted to let you know we are here, if you ever need anything !!
Oh man that BITES !!!!!
I was quoted 7.95% too and a reserve. I know you'll get it worked out Isaac, I hope it's very soon.
It never ceases to amaze me what parts of this human race will do.
