just a couple od qns, would love to get one of these.

1) do you ship internationally?
2) can I add 2 extension caps to the mini legacy to fit a 18650 (small issues here, as i can purchase both sleeves made for the mini and the standard, but i like adding things:)
3) do you have the body part in brushed instead of media blasted finish?

Thanks!

Well just so she doesn't get lonely, I ordered another adapter and switch assembly so I could get the second tube up and running. Never thought I'd say this but I use it as much if not more than my Provai's. This is one fantastic little mod. Thanks Puresmoker.

Haha! It never hurts to have extra parts :) You'd be amazed at the amount of people that contact us with some awesome stories about how they lost a switch or an adapter. Quite a few have ended up at the bottom of ponds :) We hope you continue to enjoy tnt! :)

Just placed my order for the standard model :) Can't wait to get the zatty pro on it:D Great looking mod PureSmoke & US made to boot;)

We hope you enjoy it Copper! Never hesitate to ask questions if you have any!

CasHMeRe: If you want to turn it into the PERFECT MOD. Think about a flat top and also a knurled locking switch for people like me with bad hands. Other than that I really like it. I'd say I love it but I only love my sweetie. (sorry) just a fact. Pic is sitting next to a Provari standard for those that want to compare. Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trust me your gonna like this mod a LOT. Kick it and lets rock and roll.
 
My Legacy was in the mailbox when I got home. I did order the kick so I added two flat washers and the locking washer to the switch, added the kick and the AW IMR 18490 and screwed it all together. It took me a little bit to figure out the best way to hold it and press the button. I started off feeling kinda awkward trying to vape and depress the switch. But after thinking about it though, awkward would be expected after pressing a side button on a tube mod hundreds of thousands of times over the past half a year. Once I settled on a couple ways to depress the switch, I was comfortably vaping great tasting clouds through my vivi nova. And by this morning, it already feels totally natural to vape with.

I do have a question about the kick though. It seems like I can never get it to sit straight in the tube above the battery and as a result I feel like its not making as much contact as it should with the top terminal. It’s a good 1/4" higher on the side with the spring. When I flatten it out it just pops back to its natural crooked position. Maybe it flattens out once everything is snugged up, but I have no way of being sure and I don’t think the switch spring is powerful enough to make it go flush. Anyone have any thoughts on that?

All in all, after less than 5 hours of use, I am really enjoying my kicked Puresmoker Legacy. I will try to come back and do a more thorough review after I get more time with it.

Thanks.

Hey bigbrass ...

The kick almost never sits straight in the tube. I've only seen it sit straight a few times.

If you want to strengthen your spring - you can stretch it a bit. Be careful as to not accidentally remove the coating on it.

Happy to hear you are loving the LEGACY! Bottom Button's may be awkward at first, but normally within a day or two, they are 2nd nature. I now find it odd to try and use a regular side button, since I'm so used to the pinky action on the bottom button!

Well got the extra switch and adapter in today. Now I got two Legacy's, a Standard and a Mini. Plus I can Kick both of them.. So far except for the knurling on the locking ring, I've found that when I change carto's or tanks, or just about any delivery device I have to adjust the center pin.. It's not that big a deal since I can usually find something small enough to adjust it with. Just wondered if anyone else was having this problem. I have a tendency to change tanks and flavors often throughout the day.

This morning I was thinking about taking the legacy mini to work when it dawned on me. I was under the impression that only protected ICR batterie should be used in a device like the Legacy. Even the Puresmoker website suggest the use of AW IMR 18350 batteries in the mini. Tried a short stop fuse in it but the caps wouldn't screw down all the was. So is it safe to use the AW IMR 18350 in a straight mechanical mod? I really am leaning towards what the manufactor recommends but was just wanting to be on the safe side.

Norman, Ok
If you are always having to reset the center pin.. it is an indication that you are over tightening the atty, carto, clearo and/or tanks that you are using.

ICR battery chemistry requires the addition of a protection circuit in the event of a high drain like a short or the battery could go into a runaway situation which would result in a bad situation. IMR battery chemistry on the other hand is safer and not as prone to going into a runaway situation like an ICR type can... it is still a good idea to use a add-on fuse protection but isn't as critical. Since I use a Kick with mine... I always use an IMR since they can handle the amperage drain that the Kick requires... Don't use ICR's with the Kick.

Thanks for the info. You just saved me some money. It's a shame the short stop won't fit. This is the only reason I got it. Oh well I bet it gets used somewhere.
