Just ordered mine in black tonight, along with the Kangertech sub-tank...c'mon vape-mail!! :banana:

You'll love it! Waiting for my IPV Mini was so painful. I still haven't touched my mech mod since I've gotten the IPV.



On an unrelated note, will my battery die faster with the constant discharge and charging through the Mini? It seems it's never just sitting there. I'm either vaping it or charging it...

LiIon batteries have about 300-500 charge cycles so yes since you're using it more. You can pick up a pair of LG HE2 and Samsung 25R batteries on Amazon for under $15 shipped.
 
Those of you who were unfortunate enough to receive an IPV Mini where your tank/RDA/RTA/etc does not sit flush with the device... i found a solution. An hour ago I accidentally knocked my mini off the work bench in my garage and while inspecting it for damage, noticed that my damn aerotank v2 was no longer flush with the top. So i opened it up and took a good look at the 510 connector and it was now slightly higher than the top and discovered the manufacturer "Press-Fit" it into place. So I put the side panel back on to ensure the frame stayed ridged, applied a couple pieces of blue painters tape to each end to protect the finish, and carefully put it in my bench vise and squeezed it just a bit and the connector was once again flush with the top. If you somehow push it down a bit too far, just install your vaping device on it and tightening it should bring it back up flush.

So those of you who are handy with tools can save yourself the headache of having to send your mini back and wait for a new one.

I just ordered a couple of those Samsung 25R batteries off Amazon and should receive them later this week. Definitely a good price.

Ah ok, thanks. 300-500 charge cycles is still 6 months to a year, since I charge it about once or twice a day. That's pretty good for a $7 battery. I picked up two more 25Rs on ebay for $14.85 shipped.

Finally got mine (silver) and couldn't be happier. Fits perfectly in my hand, is super easy to figure out and with the Aspire Atlantis, this thing is a beast.

Good things do come in small packages.

I want to order the atlantis but am concerned about the issue others have had with the mini not reading the ohms correctly and not being able to use it. I don't have another device that the atlantis will work with. Have you had any issues getting it to fire?

I have the IPV Mini and it reads my Atlantis attys at .4 ohms and fires no problems. Never had a problem with my mini. Had it two weeks now and just love it. Just need to buy some batteries and a charger.

Great unit.

Got my iPV Mini today along with a Aspire Atlantis, need to get lower level nic juice. Overall really happy with this mod for the price.

I just saw that new Blue color over at Origin Vape site. :(

It's much better than the original chromed light blue P4U offered, and is closer to the iStick royal blue. I would have grabbed the blue if it had been available. Oh well. Maybe later this year.

Zero issues after four hard days of use. I've refilled it a few times, pop it back on, and whamo, great vape. Ohms reading properly, etc.

has anyone heard of the acro tank or used one? I was going to get an aspire naut. for my ipv mini. the coil heads for the acro are only 1.79, and fit the aspire nautalis, just wondering how they hold up. Have been using the ipv mini since dec 26th, and loving it. good choice for me its my first device of this type, so plenty of room for me to grow.
