My girlfriend and I got ours color coordinated. Kind of cliche but whatever. The next pictures will be of the blue one travling from CO to Afghanistan.

Best of luck to you in Afghanistan, stay safe over there!

You should get the matching anodized drip tip now! :)

I have the blue, with the blue anodized drip tip, perfect match!

Nice review there from Grimmgreen... Kinda surprised about the comment about airflow. I find that my Lavatube v2 has a pretty open draw, I've even had to block a passage to tighten it up on a few of my attachments.

Lately I've been using it with a 510>eGo adapter and some uncorrupted Kanger T3's... Nice open draw, great vaping...

I'm really a big fan of the Lavatube v2, and like it more every day as I try out other mods, I always find myself going back to the Lavatube v2! Really digging it!

I dunno what he's talking about with the "uneven airflow" either. Mine is perfect. Not too tight and not too airy. I've only used mine with Viva Novas so far though. But I'm glad Grimm and PBusardo both liked the LT 2.0 in their reviews. My favorite people and my favorite device!

It also drives me a little crazy about people complaining about the price of the kit in the YouTube comments. I paid $71.99 for my tube with their 10% off code... I thought that was a fair price for something that feels so solid. I think that the way the device feels in my hand is my favorite thing about my LT. It's far, far better made than the previous LT incarnations and I think that makes the price totally fair.

The kit comes out to $125 with the discount and to me that's perfect considering i don't have batteries or a charger and with this kit you get all of that plus 30ml of juice, a tank with a drip tip plus a case. And not to mention these are quality chargers and batteries. Still...waiting patiently for mine hopefully in the next two weeks :D

I didn't buy the kit since I'm allergic to propylene glycol, so I bought the tube, batt, tank, charger, drip tip, separately. If I could do it over again, I wouldn't have gotten the tank; don't like it really @ all. I got a vivi nova, and that works great.

I'm not sure what all the complaining about the price is either...

Some people make the claim that it's a Vamo without the VW... Okay, granted... I have both, and they are probably using very similar electronics. Exact same displays, same button configurations, same functionality, etc...

But the Vamo doesn't have anywhere NEAR the build quality that the LT v2 has... Not even close... The 510 connector on the LT is leaps and bounds better than the Vamo... I mean, We all know it, but this LT v2 is one tough cookie. It's a beast! And it's accuracy with a single 18650 battery is a lot better than the accuracy of the Vamo with a single 18650.

And the kit isn't coming with garbage either... It's coming with the charger that many folks in the vaping world consider one of the best, with the XTar WP2II... Great charger... Genuine AW 18650 battery... Although it is only 1600mAh... The carto is a SmokTech carto (Not advertised as such, but that's what it is... I've seen them unboxing them at my retail shop, box says Smok right on it :)) SmokTech DCT tank. Pretty good stuff...

And you know the one thing the LT v2 has that the Vamo does not? Backing by a reputable company right here in the US, with great customer service and a full 1 year warranty.

Try getting a 1 year warranty on a Vamo... Good luck!

When it's all said and done, IMO there is only one other APV out there that I would consider, and that's the ProVari... And TBH, I really think the LT v2 holds it's own, and I mean SERIOUSLY holds it's own against the ProVari, for substantially less money. Comparable ProVari starter kit runs around $210... And that's with no juice or tank or anything...

So yeah, Lavatube v2 is a winner, and I think the price point is very competitive, and well worth it.

Does anyone know if the kit comes with a matching drip tip? The picture only shows a plastic drip tip which looks clear btw but I was watching a review on it on youtube by GuideToVaping and he said his came with a matching drip tip...hmmm?? Just curious because I was going to purchase the red anodized drip tip to match when i get my kit.

Well, the Tube Tank comes with a clear plastic drip tip... I asked for the anodized drip tip when I got it at the retail store, and they gave me one at no charge... But the kit contents on the website says it comes with a plastic drip tip. Every review I have seen has claimed they got a matching anodized drip tip. That may be something they are doing with review units. Wouldn't be unheard of for reviewers to get special perks... Such as Serial #1, matching drip tip, pre-built coil in an RBA, multiple battery tubes, etc...

Good review! LT 2.0 is great! It looks better than anything else I've seen also.
