I'm more interested in the size. Hope they made it just a little less boxy and a tad bit smaller. Doesn't have to be istick tiny but the closer the better.

Yeah, less boxy. It's like an old car now. Would like rounded edges long as it doesn't look like a bar of soap.
Before xmas would be start or middle of the month....not the end of it!
Last I checked, Xmas was on the 25th. That is toward the end of the month. Either way, it's all speculation at this point since innokin hasn't said anything else about it.
So will the new MVP 3 be as immune to cloning as the 2? Everything else that's popular in this industry has been cloned, wonder why I never see knock-offs of the MVP? Like it or not, sure is popular. Don't mean other mods that are like the MVP, I mean actual fake clones with logos and all posing as genuine and listed as forever "restocking" on Fasttech. 
. Never seen or heard of any. Not that I'm interested in buying an MVP clone, the real one seems to have a good price at around $40 and genuine Innokin products seem to have a decent reputation.
Simply can't be cloned cheaper than Innokin can make them and sell them? Too hard to duplicate the electronics? I know cloning a mech mod or a tank or even some spinner battery is a lot easier, but just seems strange because cloners go after what's popular, where the money is. For some reason it must not be worth it. Doubt anything is really clone-proof these days.

Yes cloners go where the money is, where is the money on a 40 dollar box mod. I mean how much cheaper could you make a distribute a device like this?
If most of this is true, I have a feeling Innokin missed the boat on this one. Small is the new "big" thing which is evident by the iStick sales. I'm not a high wattage vaper either so I don't know what 30 watts does for you my fogger brethren. Even so, the MVP3 is probably in full production so it is what it is.
Can't fault them though. My MVP2 is finally about to croak because the button is wearing out. Battery is fine. It's been pretty reliable up until this so I will at least give version 3 a looksee. I'm a permanent convert to disposables these days.

The lack of clones is most likely due to the price point of the authentic. They wouldn't be able to under cut the price enough to pull people away from the real one.....a lesson to all the mod makers out there.....if an authentic mech mod (that is comprised of about $2 of material) sold for $60..... Few would buy the $45 clone.
On another note, with innokin saying the MVP 3 will have a larger battery capacity, I wouldn't count on it being smaller..... We will be lucky if its the same size
Then why bother with this? Clone Kanger Protank 2 II Dual Coil Atomizer Clearomizer 2.5ml Tank Pyrex
Most of the Pro Tanks on EBay are clones.
Just curious, Kodi, how long you had yours? My button looks like its wearing out but still works ok.
8 months. Granted, I use a couple of other mods as well so I'm kind of disappointed the button is failing. It still fires 19/20 times though.
Have you all seen the video of someone trying to destroy an MVP? It's amazing what it went through and still worked.... Dropped out of a second story window (more like thrown) onto concrete, drive over with a car, shot with an arrow, twice
Edit: I thought it was twice with the bow.... Forgot the second hit was a machete
Sent with one hand, the other is busy vaping.

Probably because that's less then half the cost of the average price of the kanger I'm guessing

I've been using mine daily for 14 months, adjusting the center pin with a paper clip or steak knife usually every other day.
In the reddit release it was mentioned version 3.0 should have spring loaded center pins, so it seems like the two main issues are being addressed, fire button and attys pushing in the center pin

It's the scratch and sniff numbers that scare away the cloners
I notice that the features keep mentioning "advanced" capabilities of the board in the MVP v3. Is this just referring to the reverse polarity protection and step-down, or will the evolv board in the new MVP come with temperature protection? I know that in the interviews that Brandon of Evolv did with PBusardo that TP would be a standard feature going forward on all their products. If so, and if the MVP came in anywhere near the current price, that truly would be a game changer.
I was looking at DIY PARTS / KITS - A to Z Vapor World today. They used to sell evolv boards. There are parts and pieces out there to build something with a non functioning MVP2 but I can't justify the cost if Innokin comes out with something under $50. Guess we will just have to wait and see. My MVPs are still going.
Considering the info over the last couple of months, I suspect the first will be a lower-end model and then the follow-on will be for the hobbyist.
