Picked up my MVP2 from 101vapes for 40 bucks, added a Davide BDC and its awesome. Doesn't put out as much vapor as what i have seen other mods do even at 8 + Watts but damn does the battery last forever. Any suggestions?

A device only provides the current. The topper is what will give you the clouds. A Devide is is cood dependable clearo but it is not known as a cloud chaser. As suggested, get the I-30 warmed up and you will be spewing some vapor. The 16 can do a decent job as well. If you really want to fill a room, look in to an rba.

Howdy neighbor. I'm just up the road a piece against the VT/NH border.

Hello

I'm not going to skim through 200+ pages to see if this has already been posted, if it has, I apologize. I came across this lovely site and thought I should share it. I think most, if not all, are designed for MVPs.

Thanks Oci. You would only have had to go back one page to see this nice X-mass gift that was posted from Silly. They do some nice work:

Expecting my first MVP2 in the mail... Hopefully today. Actually ordered two.. One for loaner since I'm constantly helping local newbies. Hopefully I'll get to keep one since I've heard such good things but my friends and family have a bad habit of permanently borrowing my vape gear! (My provaris are the only mods that are off limits).. The battery life of these appeals to me and the size..

Did ya get it-- huh, huh, did ya, did ya huh ... ? :D

Just wanted to throw some info into this thread for everyone, MVP2 from MBV just showed today, power switch = fixed, no more wobbly doo.

So I caved in to the whole mod game and got a Mvp today at my local B&M. Yeah, I payed a lil more that way, but our store is new, the only one we have, and I like to support local small business owners. I love this thing! I'm female, with small hands, also arthritic, and it just felt better than any of the round mods I picked up. I got two protanks as well after reading about the iclear30 tank dislikes on here too. And I ADORE that I can use my phone charger and also charge my phone in a pinch!

Any suggestions?- Amazon.com: American Dj Mini Fog Fog Machine: Musical Instruments

congratulations to those who got new MVP's
they truly are an amazing little box, that does just what I want it to
and thanks to vendors selling them at a discounted rate sorta evens the score
against the higher priced ones (even tho I'd happily pay $69)

enjoy this great powerhouse power supply with an 510/ego connection

Vape≈Happy New Year :2cool:

Let me say that I don't drip or own any RBA's, I use clearos, Vivi Nova's and carto tanks, but the Iclear 30 that came with my MVP is awesome. (not the Iclear30s, don't have one of those).
The Iclear30 produces more vapor than anything else that I own, It uses a lot of juice but that's a trade off that I will take:)

Maybe i'm just tired but...

Vaping on this new mvp ain't nothing special.

And my t3s' (My favorites) don't work on it and my x9's aren't cooperating. It's a itty day.

3 days later and i'm a little happier with it.

Found that keeping it @ 3.7v is where my juices like to be, some can go higher but I find myself just leaving it alone.

I made o-rings out of some spare condoms so that my t3s' make contact with it. Placed it between the pin and existing grommet/leads. Happy that issue is resolved.

Only big thing to be decided yet is to see how long it lasts. Hope it lasts a week as my at home device, my fat 1300mahs would normally last me 3-3.5 days. She's still green after 3.5...

Just got my second MVP 2 today! I had the brushed, black one with the iClear 30 from 101vapes, and got myself an Energy Petal one from Amazon with the matching iClear 16b. I love the 16b so far. Much better taste and vapor then the Mini Protank II and so far, none of the leaking I had with the original iClear 16. The iClear 30 is in use as well still, and I like the taste and vapor, but it's killing my juice supply. Or maybe my husband is. I have I share everything in this house damn it!

Hello, All, as of today I joined MVP club !! :vapor:
So far, it's been only about an hour vaping with this awesome thingy

But got confused about this variable watt mode. (I've been using other variable volt mods over long time though)..
I measured volt while increasing watts from 6.0 to 11. But keep getting constant 5 volt on my multimeter no matter what volt I set my MVP 2.0 to..
Aren't volts supposed to be changed if watt's changing ?
:confused::confused:

Also, volt seems to be a bit off. i.e. when set to 3.3, mutimeter reads 3.4, when set to 3.5, reads 3.6x, when set to 4.8, reads 4.87..

Could anyone enlighten a confused soul ?
Thanks in advance.

Variable Wattage mode attempts to adjust the battery to the designed wattage based on the coil resistance read by the ohm meter built into the device.

However, the wattage adjustment can't adjust the voltage past the physical limitations of the voltage regulator circuitry which is 3.3 minimum volts and 5 volts maximum.

If you are using a high resistance coil (like 3.0 ohms), then you will max out at 8.33 watts. Any higher setting and the unit will just continue to fire at 5.0 volts

On a 2.5 ohm coil you will be able to eek out 10.0 watts.

The physical limitations on the MVP are still 3.3 volts minimum 5.0 volts maximum and 3.5 amps maximum.

If your atty resistance and watts setting causes the battery to reach any of those limits, then that is the voltage it will fire at and you won't get your indicated wattage out of the device.

I wouldn't worry to much about .1 difference in readings. I bet if you test it with 3 other devices they'll all read something different.

Thank you for the detailed & kind reply. MVP 2.0 keeps the volt at 5.0 and adjusts amp to produce a specific watt.. Did I understand it right ? Even at 6.0 watt, my multimeter reads 5.0 volt with my 2.3 ohm carto.
:blush: sorry for my ignorance in this field.. Just being curious how it works.. (more importantly.. to make sure that I didn't get a defective one).

I wouldn't worry to much about .1 difference in readings. I bet if you test it with 3 other devices they'll all read something different.
I was just a bit worried if I got a dud. Knowing a little is more dangerous than knowing nothing.. I guess. Wondering how others' MVP behave..

-P.S Please pardon my poor English. it's not my mother tongue.

Been lovin my MVP for about 3 weeks, but today had a problem. have read here about the "short post" problem and yeah, I've got that too. Everything I have put on it works EXCEPT a brand new IGO-L dripper I just got. Display says NON. I made 4 of the prettiest coils,(first time) you ever saw and NONE of them would fire. I KNOW they were all good, I checked them while mounted in the dripper, post to post with my simpson 360 and PERFECT. Good looking too, but no fire. Not from ANY. I KNEW there was a problem then. The last one fired (well sort of) on the wife's ego stick, (10/9 wrap, 1/8" diameter coils, 28guage) and is at 2.3 ohms. ( Higher than I wanted, but wanted to VAPE, not change coils again, but want to go lower because it takes way too long to heat up but it does get hot!) Eyeballing the end of the dripper, the post is FLUSH with the threads. In fact, it's almost an "inny". Got out my "o"-ring collection, found one that just fits inside the connector and stole a regular BB from grandson's air gun, dropped it in the middle of o-ring, screwed the dripper down gently and viola! VAPOR, and I mean A BUNCH OFIT! Ok, not a perfect fix, but it works and I just didn't have the guts to start "rippin" at the contact, so I ain't grippin anymore! YAY!

That bb thing is pretty interesting.
