So the bottom line is even though I ordered on the 13th of July from GearBest I'm not gonna see this little guy until the end of this month if I'm lucky. Just got my pair of samsungs through the post which I had intended to rotate on this device and they look lonely. Suppose I'd better just get on with living and one day I'll have a suprise package through the post. I may even of forgotten about the order who knows.
I ordered from them about the same time. I put in to cancel the order and get a refund. Figure I can get it some where else faster.

Well my UPS tracking finally updated - scheduled to arrive on the 12th - sat in the abyss for 2 days i guess.

so we have 2 101vape orders in hand, one has a sleeve and one doesn't? weird.

So yea this is a major flaw in using "UPS mail innovations" mail just sits. My last package took 7 days including a Sunday. 101 use to be faster awhile back when using straight USPS, 2-3 days for regular shipping! That's why I loved them those speeds and they usually get stuff out within minutes/hours. Why did things have to change.. Gotta get priority to get those speeds now.. I see what USPS has done there slow everything down so that way everybody will want to use Priority Mail!

You have to lock your resistance first! Wait till your atty is at room temp, then press up and down buttons at the same time until it shows the ohms. Then fire it up and enjoy.
Duh you think I might have know this having other temp mods, thanks now I feel dumb. Working fine now. I was really starting to worry, I guess its just the anticipation of finally getting it.

So true. First class used to take 3 days or less in most cases. Now it takes 5-6 days if you're lucky. In several cases, I've seen first class mail arrive at my local hub in 2 days only to be rerouted back out to neighboring states and then (a day or 2 later) back to my hub. This seemed very deliberate to me since it only happened if the FCM was going to arrive ahead of schedule.

I'm in the same boat with tracking. I'm guessing UPS just isn't updating. I like 28g ni200 for single coils. 30g ni200 is what I use for dual coils. With kanthal it really depends on what kind of build you're aiming for.
I'm going for maybe around .5 ohm or .6 ohm micro coil. That's what I like vaping best. Should be like 7 or 8 wraps on 24g but I heard 24 takes a while to cool off

I just got mine from 101. Very fast ship indeed. This thing is SO TINY!!! It did come with a sleeve (already on it), and it took me like 15 minutes to get it off. Not sure how practical that is since you need it off to get to the battery. I have a Ti coil on it now but have not fired it yet. First impression, everything about this mod screams quality.

I got mine from theirs too, but did not come with a sleeve.

Don't feel bad I did the same thing to save a buck. I have the "save-a-buck" syndrome. I have been waiting this long so what's a few more days. I didn't want to invest too much money on a virtually unknown device but by the sound of the recent reviews it was a good buy.

That is very odd. Does it say TEST on the mod? I would contact them if you really wanted a sleeve for it. P4U maybe forgot to throw it on the mod??

I do not think it is a test unit. It is nice to have a sleeve, but I don't think I will be using it much since I do not plan on using on-board charger. So it will be hassle for me. Just a FYI for those who are really looking forward getting one - some units may or may not have it.

i got mine from 101 as well and mine did not come with a sleeve

How is this possible? My sleeve was on the mod already and factory sealed in the original box. Mine does not show test and it's v2.0. Is it possible that they just forgot to include the sleeves with some mods??? Weird.
