I am subscribed to many vendors newsletters and I got one from Sweet-Vapes today where I found this: http://www.sweet-vapes.com/shop?pag...color_plus.tpl&product_id=1310&category_id=30 Does anyone know what this mod is called? It looks pretty sweet, like an Ovale v8 on steroids! It even has a ohms/resistance checker built in to the device!

Looks like the V6

Ovale V8

I know, I have a V8 and I love it but it uses 2 18350's instead of 1 18650 and it doesnt have a ohms/resistance checker built in.

Discussion going on in the Madvapes section, so far from users experience its performing well, on par with the Vmax and with same funtions just different form factor. Variable Volt Gripper

Yes, the Sweet-Vapes description is accurate. It is, indeed, a VV Gripper, a new device from SmokTech that was offered first by Madvapes, now by Sweet-Vapes, and will soon be available from many other vendors. Some people have called it a SmokTech Vmax in a different case, but that's not likely. The Vmax uses stacked 18350 batteries and a buck regulator, with a 5-amp limit. The VV Gripper uses a single 18650 IMR high-drain battery and a buck-boost regulator, with a 4-amp limit.

The case design is similar---but not identical---to the Ovale V6/V8. Same rubberized black finish, but more boxy and less oval, and with a flat bottom, rather than the curved "rocking" bottom of the V6/V8.

Early user feedback is that this is another small-scale hard-hitting VV, where the implementation of PWM has peak spikes that kick off each on-pulse and increase the intensity of the vape at lower voltages, so that it seems to vape "hotter" than the set voltage.
