Ok...MVP2...don't think I could hold it well, sorry!:(

What do you guys think of this? KSD 30 Watt Vamo on Steroids - Vapor Tek USA

Found it on vaporjoes.com, along w other deals. Code 5off works for this...worth it or not?

That's a decent looking mod for the price with a fine host of features. (release date on the 30th)

Don't have a clue as to the durability though.

Provape has a blem sale going on right now. (from what I have heard, most people cant find the blem) Pricier for sure but, durability, reliability and service beyond reproach and you can save a few bucks as well.

If your budget won't allow it, The others should suit you just fine for now.

Best of luck to you and happy vaping........:)

Yeah, the blemish sale is pretty sparse now, 99% minis:( and yes, the preorder is tempting!

That's the exact same one I bought. Only problem I ever had was the insulator under the post and a $1.59 pack of #60 o-rings fixed that better than new.

I also had to change the insulator ring under the center pin post after 3 months usage (I actually used one of the insulator grommets from a protank coil); was a pain to take the pressfit off the first time but having done it once, I know it will be super easy if I need to do it again now that I know how it fits; it probably also helped that it was the brass version and not the stainless steel.


===edit===

It's also worth mentioning that the center pin inside my vamo was nice and big sturdy thing: no problemo to solder on a thick piece of audio wire on it; was about 3/4 to 1 inch long;

Lets not forget that JBJ is recovering from injury so the amount of fidgeting has to remain at a minimum.

JBJ, I tip my device to you in solute to a speedy and complete recovery........:thumb:

You are so sweet! Don't like to talk about it too much, but it's relevant as hell here bc it limits options. Your support , and 5spike's and others, means the world. Thanks so much!!

God, I'm almost about to get a Provari...don't suppose anyone has any coupon codes?

Also, should I just get starter kit or a blemish unit and the short batteries or go for the longer 18650 w longer end cap? And is their stock charger ok or should I get the i4 that everyone's been recommending and buy batts, atty, charger separately?

ProVari Variable Voltage Ecig: Best Variable Voltage E Cig Available!

Hurry, gotta choose soon!! May still do Vamo, I need help!! Lol

Here's a little flick to help you out as to size. Mini on left, full size on right. Both with extension caps. The mini in 18350 mode is a nice little compact unit. You'll Just need to carry extra batteries to make it an all day vape. Both function exactly the same.

Regular battery is 18490. Extension cap puts it at 18650. 18490 is just fine and you can always obtain the cap at a later date. In 18650 with a pretty heavy vape the charge can last a good couple of days.

On another note, the only battery that Provape recommends is AW brand. Others will void parts of the warranty. The charger supplied with the starter kits is very good as well.

And you can always order Vamo for a back up, V5 takes all the battery sizes. Flat or button top.
I think your on your way now.

Yes, got the starter pack which let me upgrade to the Aspire Nautilus w beauty ring, 2 18490 batts, charger, just got reg silver. Then they had one blemish shiny silver that was the only full size left, so got that too w 2 extra batts since I already had charger. Quite pricy, but the more I looked, the more I figured I couldn't go wrong w them really.

Now to get one more nautilus w replacement heads and I do believe this particular task is done!:) may still pick up some Vamos for backup once these get here, we'll see:).

Could not have done ANY of this without the help of 5spike and his baby puppy:), distortoblotto, and the multitudes of others who gave their time and advice! All I can say is thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart!! And thanks for being so very understanding about my injuries...it's def been eye-opening, but I'm going to keep fighting the good fight...make lemonade, right?:)

Please please just ask if I can ever do anything for any of you...and now I get to post with the 'grownups'! Haha:)

Thanks so much again!:)
