Good to hear...I have used my ePower with the duals and am pretty happy with the performance...

I have an e-power 14650 kit, was hoping that just the 14500 tube would be available, but maybe when I get some more $$ I will just order the spare kit. The e-power is probably the ONLY PV I have bought (and I have bought plenty) that works every time, works perfectly, and doesn't require me to futz around to get it to work. e-power with a dual coil cartos is just vaping heaven =)

I sent out the switch on Monday, forgot to put the wee note letting Bad know who it was from DUH! Brain fart #1, I didn't even think to put the battery in the return shipment Brain fart #2..I used it for a few days and now when I hold my ego it feel like a tiny 510, I never realized jut how small my 650 mAh ego is, if you hold a tube of chap stick next to it the chapstick has a larger diameter, the length comes up to the top of the connector. Until I used my e-power my ego's seemed big LOL now when I compare them I realize just how small they really were/are... what a trip

What I love about the e-POWER is the heft is just right, not too heavy and not too small...I'll tell Chris to look for a package from a Kelley...it wasn't required to send it back right away...we just haven't gotten the switches in from China yet due to storms in Lousiville area keepign UPS grounded for a few days, we may get them in by Friday though.

When you first get it you should charge it for 3 hours or so even though they are fully factory charged, by the time it gets to you, etc...this is the factory recommendation.

But normally probably around 5-6 hours for a full charge. The led indicator will turn green (from red) when fully charged.

You can also charge 14500 batteries with the charger supplied.

If you have issues charging the batteries (the light on the charger doesn't go red when you insert the battery) try bending the negative (sliding tab) connection toward the positive just a bit. It doesn't take much. After a week of use I just ran into this problem tonight. Easy enough fix, it's just from stress on the tab when inserting the batteries.

I just wanted to say the e-power is awesome. I cheated and bought the $20 "spare" kit from you guys and a couple batteries from madvapes and it works great. I have been using it all day and it hasn't gotten weak or tapered off like my Rivas tend to do. I haven't had any issues with any native 510 stuff making contact so I am pretty sure I got one of the new batch. Only complaint I have is that I wish the button stuck out another mm or so. Now, tell those guys to hurry up and get that VV switch going! :p

I have to agree--I'll talk to them about the button, it could use another mm...by the way glad you are enjoying it...

Any news on the replacement switches (thread depth issue)? It seems as if you have forgotten us. Managed to get the unit to work with other attys using a 510 510 adapter from Madvapes, so the problem is not critical, although the atty sticks out about 3/8" above the cone. One could argue that it now becomes something decorative. It's still a kludge.

Also, the Fuxo's are basically useless to me since the two I tried cracked with my juices even before I took one vape. I still have 8 that are in the original wrapper. No, I will not change to another juice (I am in my fruit flavor mode right now) especially since this was not a warning when I purchased them. The supplier simply did not do his homework when he selected the plastic.

Sorry guys, I do not believe that I should be funding your R&D for a product that does not work. The tubes would probably fix the problem. It is still unfair that I have to pay for them, but little good that does me since they are never in stock.

Tony - I responded to you here already and also in emails. We have not gotten the switches back yet.

Can you please back off this very agressive ......-off mood you are in when you come here? Every time you come here you demand where your switch is (and I have responded numerous times) then you trash the place saying you hate the Vortexes, the fluxos and everythign else.

Knock it off. ok??

Like I told you earlier we were waiting on the switches to arrive and they may come in later today.

Here, there, everywhere!
LOL--I got your stuff back and we'll get you all fixed up : )

I don't doubt that at all! And I truly do like the feel of the button. Also at first I thought it was going to be to big of a unit when I saw it - but it actually felt pretty sweet in the hand.

Woo Hoo - I am all giddy now.

Keep up the awesome cs!

My suggestion to you is not to buy new stuff for a month or two, wait until you see what other people's experience is- and why buy 10 of something when you don't know if you will like it? By the way, you can probably sell those fluxos on classifieds to people who use them for mods, or you can make tank mods yourself for just a few $.

I try new products when they are in the $10-$15 range just for kicks, fully expecting some of it to fail and some of it to be great...to me that's like paying $10 for a movie ticket- I don't expect every movie I go see to be an Oscar winner and I don't ask for my money back if the movie isn't what is expected.

As far as the e-power switch, I don't want it to stick out more, I have NO idea where that idea came from or why it would be important. And I'm not worried about the carto or atty sticking out of the cone, in fact I rarely use the cone because I think you get better performance without it.

I'm not a 'fan girl' of any vendor, but I will say that I have gotten great service from both gotvapes and madvapes, along with very reasonable prices and I will jump in to defend either of them when I think they are being unfairly criticized.

They don't seem to be further along on the VV switch but I'll ask where they are at with that. As far as 808 threading, ditto...

So... I have been using my e-power with dual coil cartos for about a week now. It is a great setup (would make a great kit with those together, wink wink).

ANyway, I vaguely remember there being talk of a 901/kr808d threaded switch and/or a VV switch possibly available for these at some point. Any word on those?
