IPV4 preorder

[HDMontana]

Well, I finally got tired of waiting on my black one. It will show up someday. I ordered the silver from Wake and vape. Discount code still works, still get a free vape sock and still said in stock. Guess I will eventually have 2 with an investment of around $130.00. I better like these. My Kangxin flask clone has been performing great for the few weeks that I have had it.

Will do. What am I looking for? Lol. I just built a nickel coil and am using joules mode. Pretty cool.

 

[sando7]

mine is draining different......ater 1/4 use on the reading on the ipv4 screen, the batt under the 510 reads 3.86 and the other side reads 3.96....it even gets more off as it goes further down on the ipv4 screen/reading.....everyone says not to worry about it but i'm concerned...it could just be only mine yet it's the same on three different pair of brand new married batts.............in my case i cannot go under the half mark on the screen reading without going under 3.6 or 7 so-far on one of the batts....been constantly checking with my DMM and this so-called problem has been constant...even after a thuro-cleaning......and all batts coming of an x-tar VC2 @ 4.20, double-checked.

don't want to worry you like i said it's prob only mine, just wanted you to be aware, so you can keep an eye on-it.

i have a single coil Ni build @ 0.11 in a Yep rda @ 32 joules & temp @ 435 w/rayon, it's kickin!

Is that what they read on your charger? Sorry trying to understand better. I just got to use my efest luc v4 for the first time today. Seems slot 1 and 3 charge together and 2 and 4 charge the same together. Not sure if that matters but that's how I went and paired my batteries.

 

[sando7]

my charger actually reads the charge of the batts .......and i have been double checking after using the batts in the ipv4 with my Digital Multi Meter. the battery under my 510 is draining much quicker than the other side. so on the screen of the ipv4 when it gets to the half mark, the batt under the 510 reads between 3.6/7 and the other side reads around 3.84/6 or so.

i do not like taking my batts under 3.7 before re-charging, just my preference.

 

[TheBloke]

The EFest Lucv4 also reads the charge of the batteries, but only to one decimal place. When I remove my fully drained batteries from the IPV4, I am used to seeing one at 3.1 and the other at 3.2 when put on the Lucv4.

So I rotate them when I put them back on - the battery that was in slot 1 (of the IPV4) goes into slot 2 the next time it's on the IPV4, and so on. That should even the drainage of both batteries over time.

 

[sando7]

bloke you just ain't understanding what's happening on my device.
if i waited until the screen on the ipv4 reads on the low side i would be risking loosing a batt.

and of-course i rotate after each complete use ....yet i should not have to rotate after 1/4 use of the batts while using in the ipv4.


sorry i even said anything, do what you want!

Er, calm down. I was talking to rowsley to describe what he might see on the Luc4 and what normal usage looks like to my understanding.

Regarding your issue, if you think your IPV4 is draining batteries so differently that it will damage one of them, you need to return it to the vendor.

 

[sando7]

simply put, any ipv4 owner should check their batteries with a DMM when they reach the half-way mark on the screen of the ipv4 to insure that the batteries are draining properly and this would be a simple safety measure to take.

Is this what you were talking about?

 

[rowsley]

Has anyone tried using window tint yet on the screen? Just debating what %vlt to get. 20% just seem dark enough. I just wanna make sure I don't see the silver bleed through from behind. Hmm

 

[sando7]

no P.b., mine is just draining faster on one side nothing as bad as in the video (no heat or red light), my thought is one side is tighter than the other or is making better contact as long as i don't go below the half mark on the screen of the ipv4 i'm fine.
i hope this is not the beginning of troubles for me or any-one else....my suggestion was just for everyone to keep an eye out on the drain of their batts while in the ipv4 with a DMM....i know i will!

in the mean-time i have been experimenting, still in the learning process but i have made some head-way and gained a few points....i'm also getting some DeoxiT........this is the last post i'm going to make on this subject if your interested further please feel free to pm me.

My two seem to drain the batteries evenly...the only weird thing about this mod besides the mirrored screen is how it reads or sets resistance in joule mode...it is always low unless you pulse the fire button a little.

Mine left Los Angeles at 2:00 A.M. this morning. Hopefully I will be a member of the club in a couple of days.

Well my pain for the IPV4 continues, I originally pre-ordered the IPV4 at the beginning of the year, but it kept getting pushed back, so I cancelled the pre-order, then about 6 weeks ago, saw the pre-order on gearbest for $65, as seemed to be getting closer to be released, I jumped back on again.

Then a few weeks ago people started getting them, and was told about the deal at wakeandvape for nearly the same price as gearbest, so cancelled my order with gearbest, and on the 4th May, I ordered the silver from wakeandvape, and they was fast and shipped on 5th May, on the 6th May shipping showed it left Los Angeles.

Now it is the 15th May and tracking still shows the same as 6th May as departed Los Angeles and I still don't have my IPV4, I contacted USPS and they have been as helpful as a dead turtle.

I did contact wakeandvape last night and said they would look into it for me, but right now I am out of $68 and no IPV4 to show for it, if it is lost and wakeandvape won't replace it, then I can't justify paying for a 2nd one, so after 5 months of waiting and I might not even end up with one.

It is a needle in me, everytime someone posts how fast they got theirs and how good it is, in over 2 years of vaping and tons of orders, never have had something not turn up, guess it was my time for it to happen.

OK got all that off my chest, don't mind me, carry on

Well after I had given up hope and only today started thinking I would just wait for the black to come out and then try again, but then tracking actually updates, looks like I am getting my IPV4 after all, only took 13 days to get from LA to KS, but at least it is moving

Wow, small world. You live like 45minutes from me. Off topic though. Hope you like the IPV4. Had mine about a week and a half and loving it. You going to be using it in power mode or temp mode?

Be using power mode for the time being, already have 2 TC mods and not bothered trying it yet, I like a warm vape and enjoy my vape the way it is already, so not been in any rush to try TC, if that changes in the future, then I am well prepared for mods
