Version 2.0 will be 4 amp ... right? Anyone know when this will be available? And where may be the first place to carry it so I can keep an eye out for it?

I thought someone said Crystal Clear vaping... or was it Apolloecig? Sorry... oldtimers... The person that carries it first might be someone that hasn't been vocal about it. I'm wondering how much of this 4 amp is true and not manufacturer hype? We've been burnt in the past.
From what I understand, Discountvapers will be offering the new version (when it's available) as replacements for anyone that bought the 1.5t from them that had the switch/electronics issue. Me personally, if I decide I want one, I'll wait until DV has one for sale as he stands by his products and customers. There is so much confusion right now regarding all LT's and clones. Some are calling their's a V3.0 when it's actually the original version...
I think you must have DV mixed up with CCV. DV never sold the 1.5 only the mini lava. He is thinking about stocking the newer chrome version. He does have the V1 for 44.99.
The V2 LT CHROME which is made by UNIQ(Young Jun) is NOT a 4 amp switch! It is a 3.2 amp switch!
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure volcano ecigs is coming out with the new version that is pretty much a provari lite.... The owner-joe? Debuted it at vapestock a couple weeks ago, there's a video somewhere on YouTube .... And let me tell you, that thing is sweet... Tubes only will be selling for $80 I think he said, and they are still deciding on wether or not they are going to have the amp limit at 3, 3.5 or 4 amps, he had a 4 amp limit LT at vapestock, but said he thought that was a little high
It is way more than I would ever need. 2.5 amps has worked fine for me and 90% of other vapors. Most vapors never go over 4.5 Volts and lower than that with LR.
yeah, i have a apollo chrome vtube and the last ever made hologram silver bullet!!!! ( won it at a meet ) but my next buy was gonna be a provari, but i think im gonna get the new LT, can anyone find any info on when they will be for sale? i cant find anything
ccv has them, doing trades first. Said he was thinking of only carrying them until they sold out his original order, but may change his mind. Now that he has used one for himself. I am waiting on my swap to get to me now!
Joe said two weeks on that video. That video was shot exactly two weeks ago, today. lol
How about now. pretty sure this is a v2:
EpicStorm Full Size Device [922] : L Js E-Smokes, Electronic Cigarettes
This one, guys. An actual LavaTube 2.0 from Volcano. I believe that joe said that it'll be 3 or 3.5 amp.

OK, that's something I've never seen before. When is that going on sale? Daddy like.
Here's the thread in the Volcano forum:

Thanks Carlton. Very interesting. Looks like a completely new device. I wonder if this is something that will be a Volcano exclusive.
ECigCharleston has a verson 2.0 with metal end caps and 3.9 amp limit. Here's a review of the mini and regular one in black and sliver: ECigCharleston StarFire VV Kit AKA LavaTube Knight Rider Version 2 Review - YouTube
The description on the ecig charleston site says that these are Knight-Rider Vtubes. From what I've read and experienced personally, that's incorrect. They're almost certainly Young-June Vtubes. All the L-Rider versions have a red power button, whereas Young-June versions have a power button that matches the body color.
These appear to be the Young-June v2.0 Vtubes, with the stainless steel or chrome body option (only stainless is offered by ecig charleston, but crystalclearvaping has the chrome version) and the claimed 3.9 amp limit. I say "claimed" because the v1.5t units were originally marketed as having a 4 amp limit, but that turned out to be false. No one on ECF has yet tested these new v2.0 units to confirm the 3.9 amp claim, although both ecig charleston and CCV are stating it.
As far as I know, L-Rider/Knight/J-Lin has not yet shipped their upgraded v3.0 version. L-Rider's v1.0 was the original Lavatube, and their v2.0 was the Lambo version (with upgraded body and caps, but still with a 2.5 amp limit and no resistance checking).

Hi Bill,
I don't know about Ecig Charleston, but has anyone at CCV claimed 3.9A? They don't have them on the site yet, except on the tube swap sku you can open, and that doesn't list any specs. It has seemed that Andrew and Jeremy have been really tight lipped about specs on these v2's, but you may have caught something I missed.
EDIT: After posting, I went to Ecig Charleston, and they sure do claim a 3.9A switch. If you check out the link I posted earlier in the thread for LJ's Esmokes Epic Storm, you will notice a few things. First they claim it is the "new version 2 device". Second, it has the funky top cap with Ego connector and floating pin. Next, it has a red power button. That all leaves me kind of confused about what CCV is offering on the tube swap. Other than the power button is the body color, and it looks like it may have a CE2 with an ego connection screwed on it. I was kind of hoping for something with that funky Ego connector, and even ordered a SS Ego cone I got today from another vendor, and also an Ego tank adaptor from CCV. Part of the reason I was hoping for the Ego connection, is that it seems none of the other new top caps have any drip well. Oh well, I'll know soon enough.
