iTaste MVP v2 Owners Group

[Doghead]

Broke down today and bought a pro tank 2 to see what the fuss was about. Filled it with some black licorice juice ( both from local B&M) and WOW! Got an evod tank too and dig both on the MVP. My iClear 30 and ARO are now nice back ups! Also got some great tips from the swell guy at the shop. Unfortunately, he let me try out his personal mech mod with drip tank, and well, I love my MVP, but still want more toys!

I let my husband use my baby today... He doesn't wanna give it back... He just said 'you better order another one of these'... He keeps taking over.my goodies, lol... I knew he would love it. How can you not, right?

So where to order the new one from? Energy series maybe. Where do they offer the most in designs. And who has em at good prices these days?

Check out ebay also. You can find all the designs and very good prices.

Can I still join the club? Yesterday bought wife and I each MVP 2.0. Lovin' it, but now I need to play with my coils to get the best vape. Some of the coils I previously built are a little lower ohm than what I'd like to try. I figure with an extra coil wrap I'll get more surface area on the wick, more vape and flavor. Very happy even with the current 1.8ohm coils, just thinking 2.2-2.4 will allow more adjustment and like I said surface area on the wick.
I have the vaping power chart printed so will shoot for the range that gives the most adjustment considering we both use a lot of different types of liquids and flavors.
Hey, and if I don't like the higher ohm I can always go back lower.

I got mine MVP 2 3 days ago, and wow switching from an ego 1100 twist, its a HUGE difference. It's paired with a protank 2 with a 1.8ohm head and set on 7.5watts and i am blowing clouds with this!

Tons of new owners checking in! It really is one of the best most versatile device out there.

Welcome to the ranks and feel free to fly the banner:

hey whats up welcome to the club

ohms don't matter much because you have variable power adjustment
if you find the review (PBusardo) on the oscilloscope shows the
MVP works best at about 2.0Ω...

just start low, increase till your happy (vv or vw)

I found with my MVP with my AGA T2 I get more vapor and flavor with a coil around 1.6-1.7 ohm compaired to a 2.0-2.4 @7.5 watts.

Maybe old phones but no phone I've Ever had has had this type of thing. I've owned a lot of phones too I currently have 5 smartphones and watch my phones charging and discharging rates very closely. Of course all the phones I have at the moment are fairly new Xperia Z, HTC One, Nokia 920, nexus 5 and LG G2 so they are all newer technology. Either way the mvp2 does control the charging rate not the charger.

I know the Samsung Galaxy Prevail (only two years old) will only charge at 0.7 amps. But yes, no such issues with the MVP 2, works just fine on my 1 amp charger.

How long do you guys think this should last overall, before the battery fails to maintain a charge? Say, like a year of moderate vaping? I know the average will be a very round number but just wondering.

So here's my story of "MVP land" if you will. I started witg v1. Had it less than 24 hours and my daughter knocked it in water then purchased another one and I like it has kept going for a few months and I work on an ambulance, constantly pocketing it and pulling it out and just all around hard on it. Then my wife's v1 took a tumble and the post with the connector became "moveable" and tempermental. Some tanks, the post had to be pushed in and others it had to be pulled out. So I decided to order her the v2. She liked it but the "button is too hard to press" so we switched (Win in my book). I like these things we just seem to have bad luck lol. She now also has an evic and I have a vamo v5 coming in soon. I forsee this still being my work choice as it is a solid little unit.

I've read that your average lipo battery holds for ~300 cycles before it drops below an acceptable charge level. If I were to vape my MVP exclusively, I think a full charge would last me ~1.5 days. Doing some math, we get 450 days if used exclusively.

Totally a guestament but it should be enough to go by.

this is from Battery U :


every reduction of 0.10v% (charging) is said to double life cycle of battery

-charging the li-ion cell to 4.2v expect 300-500 discharge cycles
-charging the li-ion cell to 4.1v expect 600-1000 discharge cycles

so, charging the battery to 4.1v (not full 4.2v) will double the life of your battery

est: - charge MVP every other day (365÷2=182) (182 cycles a yr)
182x3=564 cycles

Welcome, always nice to see another vaper in EMS.

Hi Everyone.

I have a question. Is it possible to use a wall charger with the MVP? If so, would I need a specific one?

Hi Everyone.

I've charged my MVP using a micro usb cable (not the one that came with it) via my pc, and also using a nook charger (with the nook cable), my Kindle charger with the Kindle cable, and a Samsung phone wall wart with the MVP cable. Every one of them worked perfectly (the nook charger/cable took longer than any other method, but still worked).

The problem with Battery U is some times they don't show the whole picture. Other times they are quite inaccurate. The guys on my E-bike forum are hardcore battery guys some of whom are in the industry and if you even dare to use the words "battery U" over there, they won't even discuss it with you. Battery U is good for general understanding but don't think they are the end all and check around on any facts you get there.

If you notice, when the MVP is fully charged it reads 4.2 but after only five or so vapes it drops to 4.1 but will stay at 4.1 for quite some time. The charge put on the MVP is just ever so slightly over 4.2. In essence it is a FULL 4.1. Most of the guys over there recommend taking it just to 4.2 and I really trust these guys. Also, remember that if you charge to a lower power, you will have a shorter run time.

I understand your theory but I am not sure that it is 100 percent correct. I am going to continue to charge mine fully. I think I'll do some reading up on it and get back to you.

1 of my MVP2 charges to 4.2 and as you said, quickly drops to 4.1, my other MVP2 charges to 4.1, never seen it go up to 4.2, but don't notice any real difference in battery time between the 2 MVP2's.

Thanks for the quick reply. My laptop recently died on me, so I need to be able to charge my devices via a wall charger. I have one for my vv3. I wonder if that one would work. If not, I 'll use my kindle charger.

Thanks again...

Should work just fine, especially since the VV3 is essentially the little brother of the MVP

Hi Everyone.

I've been using a Dynex Dual USB Universal Wall Charger for years. Output is 1.0 amp per port.
