itaste 134 mini

[CookieMonster225]

Okay so my buddy just got one and I tried it out the other night. I really liked it so I pulled out my phone and bought one, it will be in tomorrow or the next day. It was an impulse buy so now I'm nervous about my purchase. My current go-to mod is my seigeli Zmax with kanger aerotank. I'm very tired of the zmax especially since I bought a nemesis clone and a dripper. The dripper is just too high maintenance to carry everywhere. So my question is basically, what do yall think about this mod?

I really like mine. It is not my daily carry device but I have brought it to work a few times. It is as pocketable to me as a full-sized Provari.

I haven't tried the mini only the original, and after using it for just a few hours it put me off using my itaste vv/vw 3.0 it was so good lol. If it's anything like the original it is a really good device and i'd recommend it to anyone.

I have both and they vape identically.

don't own it myself yet but soon .....have heavily researched this Device and there seems to be one issue arising on some of these 134 Mini Units after using for awhile , "humming and or vibrating"....and i was given this information,

Just wanted to let you know about something... I took my Mini 134 to the shop where I picked it up used at and talked with the guy who sold it to me. He showed me the way to fix the vibration/humming issue. Apparently if there's a gap in between the tube and the firing pin area, that's what causes it. You just have to make sure that the tightening screw is completely tight and all the vibrations go away.

Additionally, talked to another guy who has both the regular and mini 134 and he recommended taking a brass brush (from a gun cleaning kit) and rubbing over the 3 pins in the tube and that'll fix it up as well. Haven't tried that part yet as I haven't gotten any of the vibrations since I got the tightening screw set up with no gap.

thought this info might be able to help you down the road if this issue should arise, other than that personally i think you made an excellent choice.....this one is Next on my list.

what's the best price you can find on either 134?

My buddy paid $160 online. I found it on ebay for $100. That's what he gets for buying the first one he clicked on. Just make sure if you buy on ebay that the seller has at least 99% positive feedback so you know you're getting an authentic product.

I've seen two reviews and both reviews mention that the battery tubes are a PITA to swap out and the threads between the control head and battery tube are not very good.

I imagine some noalox on them would probably help with that, but that kind of drew me away from it. I was kind of hoping it would be a Variable Wattage ProVari, but it appears it's not. I finally caved and went with the ProVari for my "high durability" mod. But I do love the looks of the 134 Mini.

Just got it in and tried it out. It vapes awesome. Only complaint is that I hear a faint buzzing sound when I hit the fire button.

Thats normal for the 134 and VTR. I had both and they both buzz when firing...I still have the 134. Such a great mod.

Check your PMs.

And on the topic, I haven't vaped either 134, but I've been very happy with Innokin products in general (I own an SVD and a Cool Fire II), as has my brother (he has the VTR, MVP coming in the mail). It's solid stuff worth the price, in my opinion, unlike a lot of the other mass market Chinese companies (looking at you, Sigelei, Kamry, KSD, and to some extent, SmokTech). And I hold this opinion even after diving headlong into mechs recently...prolly gonna get an 134 or 134 mini for my next regulated device.

Well I just put the 134 on ebay this morning and pulled the trigger on a provari It's not what I wanted and I'm tired of buying $50-$100 mods and not getting what I want.

Rattlesnake sound? http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/variable-voltage-apv-discussion/488840-rattlesnake-effect-why-cheapo-vv-exception-itaste-mvp-dont-vape-same-provari-dna20d.html

You sound like a lot of vapers who were disappointed with many of the Chinese-manufactured mods and ended up getting a Provari. I think you are going to be highly impressed with the Provari.

I'll be curious to get an update on your impressions once you get it and use it.

@baditude not the rattlesnake its the buzzing typical with the 134. And thanks for the reassurance about the provari.
