I love my VTR. The one thing that made me chose it over the MVP was that I could use my 18650 batteries in it rather than having to charge up my mod every night.

IMO its too much work for not much benefit. You would lose the protection of the ring and honestly once you get a taifun gs or kf mini set up to your liking, the only difference from a full size is juice capacity. Check out the shield mod by needleworks. Its not vv/vw but has the same form factor and holds a full size. If only someone would slap a dna chip into something like the shield and mass produce it....

Yeah I don't think you will be able to reasonable fit a 23 atomizer.
I'd like to know the wall thickness too, because I'd like to grind away a little at the bottom to increase airflow. If you have two air holes like the Fogger V4, or happen to have the air hole facing backwards (with a aerotank mega that could happen) it would be good to have some more space. But I don't want to drill away too much into the casing. I think it's only 1 to 1.5 mm from a teardown picture I saw. I'll soon know because I'll throw a DNA30 in there.
The shield mod by needleworks looks really great but I think there are only a few ever made.
I modified my ring to fit the kayfun
Know that is pretty awesome! It might be REALLY thin now though?

Wow that's the best mod ive seen so far. I take it that it was machined and wasn't done with a dremel. Real nice job there.
It wasn't machined. I did it by hand with some round files. I didn't want to lose the ring. It's very thin but still strong.
Nice job you did with hand tools. That shows some great skills.
Thank you. :thumbup: it was a little time consuming, but well worth it.
Great find...
I was curious, so I found that there is a kit that shortens the Kayfun, replaces the plastic and shortens the rings.
From AvidVapor "Overall size 22mm x 24.5mm (approximately 10mm shorter than standad kayfun tank sections)"
Might just be the best mod instead of grinding on the VTR.
Nano kit leaves about 3ml juice capacity so on par with the taifun gs, might be worth a try sometime. I wonder if it will get in there in one piece or if you have to piece it together on the vtr.

NOW it really looks like a walkie-talkie! Great job, there! Must have taken a good long time, though...
I'm in the market for a VTR and never knew there was a V1 and a V2 available until I read this thread.
Is there any way to tell the difference by looking at them?
What are the improvements on the V2?
TIA

They both look the same and the only difference is the spinning 510 connector wheel. V1 hasn't been produced in quite some time so I suspect only the V2 is available from vendors now.
The V1 was flawed by the 510 connection. Innokin designed it to be able to turn, but that resulted in poor connections and the internal threads would get stripped VERY easily. The V2 made the 510 connection ring fixed in place, which definitely produces less wear and a better connection. My two V1s are useless. Within 2 months of use, the threads got stripped. My V2 is still hanging in there after 5 or 6 months of heavy use.I'm in the market for a VTR and never knew there was a V1 and a V2 available until I read this thread.

I dunno about that. I have a V1 from the first shipment from Innokin. I did have problems with poor connections in the 510 connector until I cleaned it out with some PGA and a Q-tip, got lots of crud out. It's been fine ever since. I use it daily and, generally put about 5ml/day through it. It's still performing very well and there are no problems with the 510 threads themselves. Maybe I'm lucky, I dunno, but it works for me
Well I've had my vtr for a little over a week, it's a v2. I've been using the iclear 30s with a 2.1ohm coil and a kayfun light with duel coil at 1.6.
I've been reading this thread today and am up to page 15. It's weird, I was hitting my vtr and noticed a faint buzzing noise coming from the button when I press it, then just a few posts later I started reading about others having the same buzz.
I work on a tow boat and it's never quiet but today we had to shut the engines down for repairs and that's when I heard it, so it may have been doing it the whole time and I just now heard it.
Anyway, has this been figured out yet? Is it a sign of it starting to fail? Or is it normal and nothing to worry about?
Thanks
Garrett

I'm not sure how to answer you , Garrett. Some have speculated that the buzz is just a result of the switching of the power supply. That happens at about a 30hz rate, if I remember correctly, and could appear in the button or even the whole VTR. I don't remember hearing anyone having a failure as a result of the buzz and I've never experienced it, myself, other than the famous "rattlesnake" coming from the atomizer once in a while and that is a direct result of the switching power.
Thanks for the reply, I'm not to worried as it constantly reads the correct ohms and hits like a champ. If it gets worse I'll take it back to the shop I bought it from when I get off the boat in 3 weeks
I've had my VTR, basically, since they came out. Version one with the rotating 510 mount. It is, by far, my favorite to take with me when I am out and about, whether in the car, visiting folks or just walking the dog. The form factor with the tank down alongside the body and supported by the top ring makes it much more durable and safer than an MVP or standard "flashlight" style. My only real complaint is that I can't put a Fogger on it without the extension tube. Then it's up and vulnerable like all the others.
I'm guessing you're working the Ohio.
