Lavatube review from volcano - YouTube
I've found my LT to be, well for lack of a better word; crap. I sent back my first LT to volcano because it reset the voltage after every drag. After waiting two weeks to get it back, my second one misfires quite often, and the vape is very inconsistent. The vape is worse than a ego battery once the battery hits 3.7v or lower. Ordered a Provari today, I'll probably give this LT to a co worker who is entering the ecig world.
Just watched your vid. Love the background "music", dude.
BTW, those holes in the bottom are to vent the battery in case something happens and it vents.
They don't really have any effect on the draw.
The little hole in the middle is the first vent.
If the pressure gets too high, the plastic cap is supposed to blow off to open up those other two holes and prevent any pressure from building up in the tube. That's why they're not attached real tight and might break off like yours did.
But we use IMR batteries and don't run them down below 3.0V, so we don't have to worry too much about batteries venting, do we?
Oh yeah, I'm still jealous.
So, I'm finding myself having to clean it out every day or even more than once a day lately. I don't know how moisture even gets in there.
I wish I could afford a Provari.

Send it in if you got a back up.... Like I said before I got mine from volcano and they swapped mines out.. The newer ones are definitely better made. My button is clean, the end caps are solid, and I don't think it has that amp restriction anymore.. But I did not check the under load. It just feels that way.
I just ordered a stainless steel LT from apollo that ships the 31st, so I guess I'll keep it going until then lol.
AFAIK, I-Rider (manufacturer of the LT), never updated without the 2.5A limit, but if your new one is working well, then that's awesome lol. I just can't see myself going back to "ego days"

Man, how is that even happening? I never heard of this before yesterday. I tried blowing mine out just for S&Gs and no moisture at all came out. I looked inside and couldn't see any signs of moisture. There's nothing about the build that can attract any kind of moisture. Is your 510 connector seated well? Is the o-ring around the center pole missing? The only way moisture can get in, without exposing it to rain or something, is through the switch button, the hole in the bottom or the connector. Are you sure the moisture isn't juice that got in through the connector.
Maybe someone left a wet sponge inside it, LOL.
Dude, I have no idea how moisture got in there...the connector is sealed and everything!
I'm starting to think it's my case. Excess liquid sometimes leaches its way out and leaks into it, but not enough to make a mess. Maybe it's some sort of "fogging" from heat?
The moisture is always clear though, it isn't juice colored.
I'm really not sure why. Try blowing yours out as if you were inflating a balloon. Forceful, long exhales while covering up the voltage buttons and pressing the fire button. After a while, maybe you'll see some moisture come out?
Yeah, just tried it again. Nothing. You keep yours in a case? Maybe its condensation from a fast temperature change. Do you take it from a hot car to a cool room or vice versa? That's the only thing I can figure. That's weird, unless you have a really, really, really sweaty trigger finger.
I keep mine in the case provided by volcano, and I don't really throw it around in extreme temperature differences either.
Lately it's been misfiring and blowing it out doesn't seem to help either. Idk, can't wait for my SS tube to come in!

Fyi I called customer support and they told me to send it in. the following day I called again and then they told me to take it to a kiosk and if they can't fix it they'll replace it. And they did just that in the spot. Try calling them.. The new one I had got has no issue with it. It actually been put together a lot better. Its silver too.lol.
I see a lot of you are saying there are improvements made to the more recently produced LT's. I just ordered mine yesterday from Apollo, does their model include these improvements to build quality? Any word on the amp limit?
