Introducing the VISION Variable Voltage and Wattage Mod! If It Don't Break - We Wouldn't Fix It! Its a Winner

[redg8r]

Any plans to stock a stainless steel version?
Also, any comments as to design improvements made by Vision over existing competitor brands that are having issues with battery springs and poor finishes on the chrome and gunmetal (black chrome) models?

I like my vamo enough to get a backup, but a couple QC issues had me looking at another PV. Maybe some elaboration in those areas can bring me back.

Thanks!

Even though it was set to 3.0 it fired like 6.

Don't use VW much, usually checking ohms and know what V I should be using for them and when using higher ohms you get smaller W increments with V than +-0.5W.

My unit doesn't fire like it was at 6v... either yours has an issue or your bumped the "-" button...

With VW... it always gives the same output power, so the vape doesn't change... it may not increment as small, but it stays consistant even after changing to a different atty, carto, clearo and/or tank... for me, VV just doesn't make sense when you have a VW option

I am guessing Got Vapes wouldn't put these up without first verifying that the battery spring issue is not present with them.

Not doing that would just be bad business.

No clue on the rest.

Very much aware of the wide spring issue on some of the Vamo-esque products. This does not suffer from that from what I am aware and definitely not in testing and using it. We ordered ours about five weeks ago and was recently manufactored and sent with other items from VISION. I imagine they were on top of it although I have not talked recently with Max from VISION.

As far as the Gun Metal finish, again I can't be for sure as we just did get them in. These are an item that are constantly subject to acids from your skin and eventually I suppose, just from constant handling you will see some rubbing off of that finish, to which degree and how fast can't be for sure but VISION does seem to take pride and ownership in their version of this popular mod.

I must be the only one, but, I don't like the "metallic" finishes. I have both chrome and aluminum PV's and they feel "sticky". Of course that might just be me. I much prefer the rubberized finish and the dark colors available with my 1300's. This is a major consideration for my next purchase of a vv/vw or other PV for that matter. I guess I do mind(see below)!.

Get J-Wraps to make that design .

Then you are probably not in RMS mode.

From Danno's post #1
How do you switch bewteen AVG and RMS?

1.With unit on (press the power button 5 times to turn on and off) press either of the mini buttons atop the power button ten seconds.
2.Your display will show NO1 or NO2.
3.NO1 is AVG mode (recommended only for advanced users as this mode produces much stronger power than you might expect at various voltages)
4.NO2 is RMS mode - it is considered more accurate and is the recommended mode to use.
5.Once you see NO1 or NO2 you can toggle between these modes by clicking either of the mini buttons. WARNING: You will not see it switch to say NO1 or NO2. We feel this is a bit of a flaw and will seek to address - we feel it needs to give the user a quick visual of the new mode. Anyway, once you see the NO1 or NO2 displayed press either of the mini buttons and you have to TRUST that it changed

I hold either button in for ten seconds or so. The display will show either NO1 or NO2. If it shows NO1 let it go blank and repeat the button push again. If it shows NO2 just leave it alone for a sec til it goes blank and you'll be in RMS.

Do you have to put it in RMS mode every time you change the battery?

Do you have to put it in RMS mode every time you change the battery?

No you shouldn't. It should stay as well as your last power setting. At least mine does.

edit: There was an issue on some early models when set at 6W it would run away. That was only occurring when set at 6W and was corrected on later models.

 

[myyrkezaan]

Had this since 11/29, put in RMS when I got it.

If it's still acting flaky, it would not hurt to check and see if it's still where it should be.

 

[myyrkezaan]

I did and it was. Tried to reproduce it and couldn't; maybe a one time thing, maybe the buttons were hit and set to 6. Not too concerned, if it happens again I'll check into it more.

Thanks.

Just a quick clarification for those that aren't used to the terminology here..

All settings except the voltage setting is retained after a battery change... The voltage is reset to 3.0v just in case the atty, carto, clearo and/or tank was changed to one with a different ohms setting. If set in wattage mode, it remains at the last setting ( since it adjusts the output based on what ohms is used ). Also the AVG/RMS setting is retained.

I mention this because WallyO mentioned that the power setting remains... in electronics, power is another word for wattage not voltage.

This Vision's biggest fangirl ever needs another APV? YES!
Again I would love this in vision purple's either the Vivi's or the spinner's. Would it be difficult for them to rubberize these? Otherwise I guess it is off to more Jwraps.

I'd prefer the rubberized too... alas, must be patient and hope the gun metal finish lasts.. crikey, I'm not even that crazy about tube mods.

To redsock, wallyo and others. Thanks for the tips and claifications.

Yes it does seem that to switch between AVG and RMS is a toggle. You hold either mini button for ten seconds and it toggles. Pressing either mini button as has been described by the manufacturer is not really doing anything as far as chaging it from RMS to AVG. Its just the fact you are doing the toggle by holding either button in for ten seconds (either mini button that is).

Thanks for the info on settings redsock. I wasn't sure that these had static ram. With dynamic ram once power goes down everything is erased. With static you have read/write and whatever the state of the bits when you turned it off remain after you turn on with the exception of those settings as redsock described that they purposely reset for safety sake such as voltage beign reset to lowest setting.

Also sometimes you might find that a carto will suddenly appear to be dead after some fiddling with settings but alot of times you can simply unscrew the carto and screw it back in. I think this might have somehting to do with its short circuit protection, a phantom reading of a short while fiddling between modes and such so it refuses to fire the carto. When you unscrew the carto and screw it back in it fixes it.

I also lowered the price on these to $59.95. We just got these in and I didn't know what the prevailing sale price of these were. If you already purchased one I'll refund the difference.

This looks very cool, I've heard great things about them... I really want to try a vv/vw and for $60 can't really go wrong.. But should I go with this, the cvi, or just save up for the provari... Sigh.. I vote buy them all
