You'll like this little guy LadyV. I promise!! I'm actually amazed at how tough these guys are. For the last three weeks I've basically had mine in prison (I mean that literally by the way as I work in a prison). I've dropped it, been slammed with it aainst walls.....ya it's a tough little monster. Takes a liken and keeps on ticken!! And SMALL I have some pretty small hands, and I do NOT have a problem with hand fit on this little guy.

You'll LOVE this mod. It will become your go to!! PROMISE.

:rickroll: :shock: I GOT IT I GOT IT !!! :shock: :shock:
Funny thing is.... I didn't get my batteries yet. :(
My tank was mailed on the 3rd and it was comin from CA
The EDD was the 7th, my batteries were bought on the
4th and EDD was the 5th comin from Fla. I got my Tank
but the batteries are still in Fla. 8-o I hate it when things
don't go my way !! :mad: :-x :-x
HURRY UP MONDAY !!!

:offtopic: Can anyone tell me how to hook a lanyard on the Tank?
I am pretty sure it can be done, its just the way I do it
(hoop thru hole) stops the doors from closing. I have
one that has a key ring hooked to the other end. I can
detach it from the lanyard, but still have the tank hooked.
Wish I knew how to take a pic of it with my webcam and
add it to this thread.

I love this Tank, small, compact, and a perfect fit in my hand.
I am dieing to try it. Damn where are my BATTERIES???8-o 8-o

There is a very little opening on the top front, you can put the lanyard through it there !
Like so... insert and tie a knot. Or, if you're like me - I looped it around the battery connector because my hands can't get the knots right lol... see attached. (Was mid-vape when I decided to take the picture)

For me....rather than having to tie a knot once you feed the lanyard thrugh that hole, I tied a small plastic bead onto the lanyard AFTER I put it through the hole in the mod. The bead is permanent on that end of the lanyard now. I used a small knife and sliced a little slot in the mod so I can attach and remove the lamyard whenever I want with ease. I wish I could post a pic, nut this new mobile skin I am dealing with on my Droid doesn't allow it.

Here is a picture of the slot I cut in to the mod. Once your bead is attached to the end of your lanyard, it is quick and easy to add or remove the lanyard. Just slide the bead in to the mod in the small space above the battery and the lanyard can slide into your new groove.

yeah, on some of the vI's i needed to put the switch on the opposite side...you could probably drill a small hole on the opposite side donnah.

I guess I could but I really haven't had a need to carry it around my neck. so I'm not missing out on anything.

How do you get the magnets glued in? Mine have come off and while it's not a big deal (I ususally just keep a rubberband around the mod).. I bought some gorilla glue and tried to glue them back.. the little buggers want to stick to everything except what I want them to stick to! I ended up with glue all over my fingers and the magnets, well they weren't where I wanted them LOL.

Also.. for all you guys using the 901 atty.... how in the world are you getting them to stay alive longer than a day?!! I have tried keeping them wet, not chain vaping them and only dripping or feeding when they aren't hot. I have not used them at high voltage.

This isn't the mod's fault, they are dying on my other stuff also. I contacted vaporkings and they were real nice. They told me that they hadn't had any problems and suggested I not drip on them while hot. I have a couple 306's from madvapes but they are awful! The flavor tastes like wet socks! I am desperate to make the 901 work! First they tripped my protection circuits on my batts, got that solved and now they just die abruptly with no warning. I've never had any real problems getting an atty to work. I know that many of you now build your own but I don't think I could do that.



Any suggestions would be helpful.

J, are you still taking orders for V2 or are you waiting to get V3 out?

I have gotten 5 10 paks over the last few onths form VK, and none have died like that.
So don't know what to tell you... could be a bad pak. They are DSE salibo which is the same thing i think and just about the only source i know for 901, unless smoktech and iken get them somewhere else.
are they LR? 'cause that will pop with high voltage...

The first ones I bought from VK was 1.7 the first couple lasted for a good week or two but then the last 3 lasted only one day. So I figured since I now had something that was vv I could get higher resistance.. so the last 10 I bought are 2.9. this first pack of them, they've all died within a day or two.. vaping great one minute, then I go to pick it up and nothing.. checked with multimeter and dead. I've always used 510's and when I tried the 901 I was blown away by the pure flavor and great vapor.

Now I'm sad and frustrated because I can't afford to spend that kind of money.. one atty a day! How long do yours last? I think I remember you said about a week... I could live with one a week. I also use cartos but they're not as satisfying and they don't last either.. to get a carto to last longer than a couple days (flavorwise) I have to use unflavored mix or a mix with just a touch of flavor. That is fine when I can use a 901 and get that great full flavor of some of the more heavily flavored juices.

I guess I'll open the other pack and see how they do.
