I've got about 30 minutes to decide on the ufs v2 in the classifieds. Not sure if its worth the extra cash. Here is a quick rundown on what I've got. 2 ggts one aluminum one ss and up until now i was using avs v2 on them until i got the ody. Question is should i get rid of one of the avs and upgrade to the ufs.

I know that i would need to still buy a drip tip for the ufs so again just undecided and figured i would ask you guys who already own all of these and see what you had to say. I did see that imeo said the ufs would have some functionality with the ody.


Sorry about the ramble just trying to be quick about my decision.

thank you looking forward to getting it. If anyone has an extra mouthpiece let me know i'd be interested. Clouds shows they have them in stock but checkout says they are out ???
I was informed in my recent WTB thread that they are on the way, and to expect them next week (steel that is).

nice. hopefully bruce will fix his site as it got my hopes up :) i've got the ody to play with so no huge rush but would like to try the i06 in the ufs to see how it works.
How do you plan to seal the io6 in the UFS? I've got a few, just haven't figured out how they will work in a tank system.

(P.S. just noticed your in ATL... /me Waves )

Right. Mine came with a plastic cover, and recommends a 306 drip. I've managed other solutions for dripping. However, in a typical setup the the atty is sealed at the connection point, in this case I't isn't. Being the lowest point in the system i.e most pressure, leakage would seem to be a concern.

It's an awesome atty, but not if it's constantly flooded. (And why I wish they would sell it with a sealed enclosure).

They will be ready in about 10 days and atomizer extenders will be ready at the same time sacre

ask ripple as he is an avid i06/ufs user im sure he would know which way to connect is best. I saw that avid vaper carries the 306 atty piece i was talking about but, not sure if it will work with the i06 i'll gladly come grab one from you if you want to part with it :)

I am wondering about something guys. Some people want big smoke and big throat hit and they want them from a single battery. Is there a reason for this? I mean, why dont they put 2x3volt batteries in a 3ohm Ody coil and vape in a way that they will never do with a single battery?

VV has other advantages, I agree. But I am wondering why they wait for or they want a VV device only to do something like this?

Quite simple really, a lot of vapers are afraid to stack batteries as it's considered unsafe to do so and want a vv with a booster circuit so they can wack in a single 18650 and get the same voltage as stacking batts would achieve.

I would rather take my chances with a battery exploding as opposed to getting cancer from smoking. This has never really been a concern of mine and the gg has excellent venting as well as a great fuse upgrade. I am torn on the vv front i do enjoy being able to dial my voltage and for the longest time i though i could not go back to a standard 3.7v device as i just didnt get the hit i was looking for but, the Avs/ody have completely changed my view on this. I have been extremely surprised by the hit and vapor i get off of them.

6v on the other hand has always been a bit of a challenge for me as i can never quite get it right and end up getting a dry or burnt taste in one form or fashion. I am always trying new things and its probably because i try and do a 1.5-2.4ohm setup on 6v. If i went up to 3ohm it probably wouldn't be so bad.

i have also seen where a company just released a 4.8v battery which is probably stacked but, none the less it is coming and that will give people more options for say a 1.5-2ohm setup.

So in short i dont think VV is mandatory but would be a nice option. On the negative side it does open up for failure and if i am correct does restrict amps like with the provari which doesnt allow a 1.5ohm atty at say 4.3 volts and would never allow for the crazy 1.5ohm dual coil carto's at 6v!

But, in order to keep up with the rest of the scene which seems to be leading toward VV i would say having it would open up the gg to a broader audience.

I've owned a monkeyboxx now for about 8 months and i would say it is arguable the best VV bottom feeder on the market and it uses stacked batts without any issue.

Sorry for the rant and i know it doesnt answer IMEO's original question but is just my opinion.

Imeo I think a lot of us want the VV for a couple reasons.

1 Regulated voltage (no more mattery drop off would be nice)
2 The ability to dial in for the perfect vape. I built a 3.1 ohm coil on my ody and while I like it at 6v (stacked 3v batterys) I like it best at 5.5-5.6v on my VV mod.
3 If it is a booster unit no stacked batterys if it is a 2 battery unit probably longer battery life.

VV is useful buddy. I dont say the opossite. Of course it has advantages. I was just wondering why people dont vape at 6 volts with a HV atomizer while waiting to buy a VV module from me or anyone else.

I do vape at 6v and even 7.4v using stacked batteries all the time and never had a battery vent, sure it can happen that's why we have vent holes in decent mods. I was just stating that some people are afraid of stacking because they've had a bad experience or know someone who has.
As for why I want VV, stacked batts or single batt is because I like to be able to get the flavour and throat hit just right without having to build coils to a precise ohm reading and also avoid the dreaded sag as the battery discharges. I've seriously considered getting a VVPV to use while I'm waiting for Imeo to finish the VV module and selling it on at that time ;)
