IPV2 50W questions, please help!

[dgkallday49]

Hey guys and gals. I was on the verge of purchasing the cloupor6 100w, I knew that it took a 26650 battery. Then I found out my xtar vp1 charger wouldn't charge 26650 batteries so that ruined buying the cloupor for me as I'm strapped for cash and can't afford a new mod,clearo,batteries, and a charger. So I decided that the next best thing would be a IPV2 50W mod. It's the same price which is fine and it takes 18650 batteries which I have and the my charger will charge! Currently I'm running an itaste vtr with 2 green Panasonic 18650 batteries that I rotate. the reason I'm buying a new mod is because I want this new aspire Atlantis clearo. So with that in mind here we go ; the only clearo I want to run on the ipv2 is the aspire Atlantis,
Will the ipv2 work well with the atlantis
What is the battery life like on the ipv2?
Will my Panasonic 18650s work well with the ipv2, or should I purchase 2 of the purple 18650s?
Is the ipv2 a good device?
I've heard things about the back cover on the ipv2, what is the exact problem with that?
Can I fire the ipv2 without the touch sensor, like if I lock the you h sensor, which you can do, is there a button to fire the device?
To anyone who responds thank you so much! Biggest questions are is it a good device? Will my 2 green panasonics work well with the iv2 or should I purchase 2 new 18650s? And how is the battery life?

The back door issues have been fixed.
I get over a day on a samsung 25r with a 1.1 ohm coil @20 watts.
The touch sensor turns off. Mine is always off.
Don't know anything about your batteries, but make sure they are at least 20 amps.

My IVP2 is a nice unit, the door sits nice and flush. I picked a single battery unit over a dual battery unit since I don't want to hassle with paired batts. The first thing I did was turn off the touch sensor IMO its a useless feature. It also has a spring loaded pin so I don't have to adjust it like I saw in the videos.
50 watts is plenty enough power for this vaper and I haven't had the need to use my full 50 watts yet, 30 watts with my .5ohm magma produces a mighty fine vapor.
My only con with the IPV2 is that I tried to put magnets to replace the screws but couldn't for the life of me get the threading out on the box so I scarred and slightly bent the screw. I use purple efests and get most of the day out of the batts

I don't have one, so I can't comment on the device, but the Panasonic batteries won't cut it for a high wattage mod. You'll need the purple efests, Samsung 25rs, lg he2s, or sony vtcs. At 50w, you'll be pulling close to 15 amps from the battery.

...with 2 green Panasonic 18650 batteries that I rotate.

Which ones in particular? (I'm guessing NCR18650B but if you can post the model please)

Just based on what I know about green Panasonics, I don't think there are any that are suitable for this device.
Novamatt above this post gave you some good battery options for replacements. I would add in the AW 18650 20 Amp to that list and scratch the purple efest, but that is personal opinion only.

Whatever you decide, it's important to purchase batteries from a reliable source like Authentic AW Batteries - RTD Vapor or Illumination Supply

Running the samsung 25 in my IPV2. Just lovn the crap outta it. Been vaping it in passthru off and on for a month and no probs so far. Never have to swap the batt.

Rockn a rebuilt Kanger Mega bdc. .9ohms , kgd wick at 23.5watts. Great vape!

They are the ncr18650b's. Yeah I spoke to someone today and I was told the Samsung batteries are most suitable for the ipv2 itself.

I get some really good battery life with my iPV2. But it also depends on what resistance your build is. Like with the Aspire Atlantis, it's not going to last as long as something with a higher resistance, but you should still get a day of use. I have an iPV2 from the first run and the battery door doesn't sit flush and the screws are crap. That's all fixed on the new version though. It still has a power button other than the touch sensor. I keep mine off all the time because if you get juice on it your mod will auto fire until you take the battery out. Happened to me at work and almost vented my battery because I didn't know it was firing in my pocket until my leg got really hot. I'd go buy some Xtar VTC4's. That's what I use in my and 30 amps is perfect for the iPV2.

I'm guessing the above in bold is a misprint, the NCR 18650b 3400mah battery has a 6.8a CDR.
It is not suitable for use in the IPV or any APV that has more than a 5a limit, requires / draws more than 5a from the battery.

I bought the IPV 2S primarily to use with Atlantis. It's a great combo, I run the Atlantis @30W with an LG HE2 18650 cell. I've been getting 2 full tanks on half a battery and that's with 8 second pulls. I highly recommend the IPV 2 or 2S for Atlantis.

So you could get four tanks full on one charge with the Atlantis at 30 watts that sounds pretty good my mech only gets two tanks befor the voltage drops enough to make me want to change battery's usualy about 3.75 volts

Sounds right although I've not drained the battery all they way to test. I'm very happy with the setup and the Atlantis sits perfectly on the 2S.

The 2s was my first choice but had sean a few reviews about poor battery life but if it can easily make it through two or more Atlantis tanks full im back on board
