That looks sharp! I have a jwrap on mine, as you know the hex screws indent. I wonder is your wrap covering the entire mod? On mine you see edges... got a pic of tge front/screen?
I'll try to get a shot of the front later. Basically the wrap leaves rails along the front edge of the ipv.

Man the wood grained skins look awesome on our mod! I cannot wait for my VS to show up (checking usps now)!

geekmedic: how did you post such a large image? All I can post are thumbnails... ???
I use this site.

That mahogany wrap is off the charts. I might need an ipv mini just to have that wrap. :) jk
When I saw it I knew I had to get it.

Got my second replacement ipv mini from asmodus and the battery they promised. Everything looks good and upon testing seems to be functioning properly. I noticed this one was still in the plastic wrap the last one they sent wasn't leading me to believe that they just sent a returned one last time cause I know they didn't bench test it or they would have caught the problem. This one looks brand new. Hoping the 3rd time is the charm. I picked up a cloupor mini while I was waiting for this one to come back and I have to admit I'm much more impressed with it.

Yea...........I was also............for about a day.
I like the hand fit of the IPV better
I like the Tank fit on the IPV better
I like the PWM to DC-DC feature MUCH better
I feel the IPV is built more durable

I'm a versatile vapor and have many different configurations of toppers.

There is a seller on Ebay that carries a large selection of wraps for the IPV mini, one of them imitates wood too. Prices are usually around $8 but since yesterday they are on special for $6.34, free shipping. Just type on Ebay search "IPV mini wrap". They also carry wraps for the Istick, for under $5. Can't comment on the quality of any of them but judging for the positive feedbacks, they must be good.

I looked at those initially, what hooked me on the Vapor Skinz is the fact they use 3M vinyl, not an unspecified vinyl. Too me it isn't worth taking a chance on a fleabay product to save $10... I piss that away on lunch at a fast food joint easy!

Two contradictory statements.
You don't want to waste your money but you don't mind wasting your money. Flimsy Plastic/Fast Food - pretty much the same.:laugh:

Maybe you didn't read their product description? :blink:

I do not see any contradiction in that at all. I meant that saving $10 on an "unknown" isn't a big deal as that's an average meal at a ff joint.

..............:facepalm:
They never get it.

Even a unknown skin would last longer and be of as much value as a Happy meal :D

On a serious note - At least our IPV Mini's are not melting down..............yet
Cloupor seems to have some random design/build issues with the mini:ohmy:

Yeah, you are right...for the price of the ones on Ebay i assume they are using only 1.5M (or lower...):p

Another assumption:

6ML Vinyl - laminated finish - 7yr :facepalm:

Doesn't anyone actually read the listings? I did automotive graphics for years. 3M is top notch. They are not the only top notch supplier though and often other high standard brands are more cost effective.

Everyone is welcome to their opinions, you have yours & I mine. I reserve the right to stick to mine!

I tend to stay away from fleabay for anything vape related because you never really know what your getting. Furthermore in my former industry, I quickly learned that 3M products are worth every penny. I'm getting a 3M product, got 15% off, and happy I am!

Cool.

I don't like to engage in Long Debates over the Merits of This or the Possibilities of That for things that Cost Less than what I Smoked in ONE Day.

I just Buy It.

And if it Works, Great. And if it Doesn't, then I just Chuck it and Move On.

Who cares if this Skins Doesn't Last 7 Years? I don't think my IPV Mini is going to Last 7 Years.

LOL
