OK I ordered a Kick2 (yes I will order a second one from SuperT)
When a Kick or Kick 2 has an inline voltage meter attached (no load) it shows nothing...
When a Kick is under load (atty/inline meter attached) is shows voltage on the inline tester...
When the Kick2 is under load (atty/inline meter attached) it shows nothing and yes the atty is firing....???
Anyone else try this with an inline voltage meter/Kick2 ?
Output Power:5 Watts to 15 Watts
Output Voltage:2 Volts to 6.3 Volts
Output Current:6 Amps
atomizer resistances:0.5 Ohms to 3.3 Ohms
low battery cutoff:2.7 Volts loaded
This appears to be a winner......

I ordered one but wonder if I will benefit from it sense im using a nemesis with a Kayfun and a 1.3 micro coil
3.9 *3.9 / 1.3 = 11.7 watts
12 watts seem to be my sweet spot any more mutes the flavor IMO . also wont I be defeating the benefit of having silver contacts by putting in a kick with brass contacts?

you will be fine. since the kick2 turns your nemesis into a VW device so voltage drop becomes less of an issue. the silver contacts will help to get the full 12w up to your atty. the difference between brass and silver is negligible but you just have to clean the kick contacts every now and then. i just rub the contacts few times on my jeans and it shines up fine.

No, silver and brass tarnish at about the same rate. A plating doesn't improve conductivity contrary to popular belief. Yes, silver is extremely conductive, but from the beginning of ecig history, almost everyone has misread conductivity charts, when you read a conductivity chart, the number derived is per a given distance(often 1 meter) traveled. Platings are microscopic, under .001 inch thick and electricity instantly passes through them and into the bass material that carries the bulk of the load. What will interrupt the flow though, is tarnish on the plating. Silver is an extreme oxidizer and your connection will quickly diminish after each cleaning.

Somehow, Silver got popular due to its low cost and ease of plating, but you'd be just as well off with bear brass in my opinion. The idea behind plating is to prevent oxidation, so plating an oxidizing base metal (brass) with an oxidizing material (silver) is self defeating. One needs to use a Precious non-oxidizing metal like the platinum group metals or gold (though gold can be a bit soft and wear prone).

UPDATE KICK2:
Evolv has hit the mark with the Kick2..........100% flawless operation in my ELA....With the new 15 watt limit/sub ohm capability there is nothing that comes close... The much improved run times are a real plus with the Kick2...I now feel comfortable that a Kicked2 ELA/18490 battery will get me thru an 8 hour day of vaping.......+++

Good to hear Riverboat! Should be getting some in on Wednesday.
