Eric, What threading does the mini lava have? What charger do you recommend for it? How long does the battery last? Why don't the gargoyles keep the evil spirits away?

Urge

1. 510
2. A Pila if one can afford it, but barring that, a WF-139
3. depends on how much you use it and at what voltage (that was a trick question)
4. Because concrete statues have no evil warding off capabilities.

OK, you got me. How long does it last relative to a GoGo battery? Judging by the mAh ratings I would think about half as long.

A Pila if one can afford it

Which one is that, your batteries page doesn't have any that say Pila. Are there any car chargers or 12volt car socket to USB adapters that would run a variable voltage passthru?

Urge

Relative to a Go-go? Well Go-go's are factory batteries, so they are not true 1300mAh, at least not in the truest sense of the rating, AW's.. you get what you are paying for, it's says 700, it's 700, so generally I would say a 700 would probably last almost as long as a Go-go but not quite.

The Pila charger is not on my site, you asked me what was the best, not what was the best I sell :)
I am looking to get some but it's been hard tracking down the actual manufacturer and getting a wholesale quote.

A Pila is about 45.00 and well worth the money from what I have read and been told.

Woohoo!! Got my order in (see my note on it though - weird issue). :)

:banana: :banana: :banana:


You are good, this was weird... I will have to see why my site is reporting it not paid


if anyone receives a message that it did go through and then goes back to my site and it says it didn't IGNORE that.
If there are any problems I will contact you :)

The wood selection pictures are not yet ready, you can reference the woods here:
Bad Dogs Burl Source - Fly Reel Seats

I have put the items on the website but none of them are here yet, just got confirmation of the woods being used and a few finished pieces being sent. You can order to reserve one, first come first served on the choice of wood but you can choose any of them if you are just willing to wait for it to be made. Which brings me to... These are hand made and hand finished and cured, so to cut down on potential loss if we can't sell a particular wood, after the initial run of a few units, the rest will be "to order" which can be 7-10 days wait time. But you can be happy in the knowledge that someone is working on YOUR specific mod. :)

As they come in I will post pics and update the website accordingly.
The website has prices listed but I am not entirely sure if they will go up depending on the wood or what the reaction is, but they will not being going down, this is as low as I can price them due to the charge from the maker and the cost of the batteries and cross shipping between us (I ship to them, they ship back etc...)

You are paying not only for the wood but for the craftsmanship. I am pretty sure I can get a lot more, but as you know, that is not my bag. So hopefully I do not lose money here but if it looks like I will, it will go up slightly. I am really hoping there is interest the two guys doing them are really great people and I would LOVE to supplement their incomes.

Note: I am still waiting for the other guy we know and love to get his tools to add to the mix :)

The XL3 and the ePower both have replaceable parts and I have put a "warranty" of sorts on the Go-go, I will fix any one that fails for any reason for just the cost of the battery and shipping, so if you invest in one of these and the battery dies after 6 months, you can get it fixed by me. (not an easy process believe me)

They all have vent holes, the wood is a casing, nothing more, a sweet, fantastic and beautiful casing but still, a casing. It is permanent and non removable and the quality of the work gives the complete impression that it is made of solid wood all the way through.

Who's the guy always bringing cool new products to market.. SAY MY NAME SAY MY NAME :2cool:
(lol sorry listening to Tom Jones right now)

Those look awesome, Eric! I am glad that I mentioned them in the XL3 review. The Mini XL3 made a cameo in my Vision Gripper VV review today. I went looking for my battery, and it was in the Mini. :lol: I got a 1.7ohm mini carto (tiny little bugger), and it works great on the XL3! I mean, really great!

Upcoming Products (next week)

Vision eGo Clearomizer, this is the one getting all the rave reviews, I have a test one and it's pretty great.
The carto screws onto an ego thread (like the XL3) and eliminates the need for a cone as it is basically a cone shaped clearo. Very nice.

discountvapers.com-vision-ego-clearomizer-ce4-.jpg


Vision "Tox" an improved version of the LavaTube (according to manufacturer)
Comes with extension tube so this can be mini, or regular sized.
This is only in kit form, so it will be higher priced.
discountvapers.com-visiontox.jpg


VV 6Volt kit. (Same as the Ovale that I sold out of)
discountvapers.com-vision6vv.jpg


The "Maz" Clearomizer Tank

discountvapers.com-visionmazclearomizer.jpg


The "Numb" Kit

Sliding Cartomizer, variable voltage (3.4V or 3.7V or 4.0V) Also has the time, so it's a clock too :)

discountvapers.com-visionnumb.jpg


I will post more details when I get them all in.


I have one other special item coming but don't have a pic. It's a kit, ego based without the need to screw anything in to charge.. it's very cool. (Monday)

Go-go batteries and more cartos plus adapters due on Wednesday/Thursday hopefully.
