After nearly one year of vaping, I decided to venture out of the world of proprietary batteries. I researched for several weeks and finally decided that a pure mechanical mod was the best fit for me. Of all the other manufacturers out there, the Super T Precise PVs seemed to be the most in line with my personal taste. I read about a million reviews from people that ranted and raved about their Super T’s, but would mine really live up to the hype?!?

With these being my first mods, I didn’t want to go overboard so only I placed an order for a P10 and a P16. I anxiously waited for nearly 5 weeks for them to arrive, but these were definitely worth the wait. Based on all of my research, I had extremely high expectations, but what I was not prepared for what I received. I was completely in awe when I held one in each hand. David can only be referred to as a perfectionist. His attention to detail is impeccable, and the quality of his work is superb. The entire tube appears to be seamless, and the top & bottom caps thread with ease. The threads themselves are not dinky, and I would imagine that it would be nearly impossible to cross-thread them. The surface has a slight texture to it, and it does a very good job in fighting off fingerprints. The action of the button is buttery smooth; it takes very little force to depress the button. The arched notch prevents accidental misfiring, and they can easily stand on end without activating. I’m sure that it is possible to activate it in your pocket, but I think that it would take a lot for that to happen…only time will tell.

Part of the reason why my order took so long to arrive is because I made two requests that are not standard on Super T PVs. I asked David to add vent holes to the P16 as well as a beveled top cap. I requested both for purely cosmetic reasons. The vent holes are angled away from you, and I feel as though it breaks the monotony of the cylindrical shape. The beveled top cap gives the PV a more symmetrical look, and it allows the lines from the top cap to the atty/carto to flow more smoothly. These requests can be made for the P16 & P18 but not for the P10.

I won’t say too much about performance because it delivers exactly what you would expect from a mechanical 3.7V mod. I paired my P10 with the AW IMR 10440 350mah battery and Boge 2.0Ω cartomizers. The P16 is running an AW ICR 123 750mah battery and an LR 510 atomizer. For now, both will use tapered Pyrex drip tips until my Super T shorty SS T-tips arrive. I also plan on picking up some AW IMR 16340 batteries for the P16. Both setups deliver exceptional results, but I think that I prefer the Boge 2.0Ω cartos, especially for my more delicately flavored juices.

Due to the beauty of these PVs, no ordinary case would do. I found some Pelican cases with Pick-and-Pluck foam that will enable you to arrange your gear however you want. Pictured is the Pelican 1040 case that will be used to hold both the P10 and P16. I organized it in such a way that I can hold both PVs with three 10440 batteries (I left room to allow for a total of five 10440’s), two 16340 batteries (with room for a total of 4), and 16 cartomizers (that can be expanded to 32). I also purchased two smaller Pelican cases (1010 model) for those times that I decide to take only one PV with me.

To say that I am satisfied with my purchase would be a total understatement. All I can say is “P18 and Shockwave, here I come!!!!!”

EDIT: I will also post this in the review section. David, I hope the pictures do justice to your masterpieces!!!

You can find the Pelican cases pretty easily on Amazon, but I went directly through Pelican. They come with a rubber inner lining so you have to get the foam insert separately. Here is a link that will show all of the dimensions (exterior and interior) of the cases. Any of the 10xx series micro cases will work.

I really didn't intend on this being a review, but I was just too excited and couldn't stop typing once I started :oops:

Yup, I went thru the same exercise after about 6 months of vaping and choose the P16 for the same reasons. The pictures you've taken are fantastic :)

Thanks fo the info, and I'm glad you didn't stop typing. Just got my P10 last week, looking for a P16 now.

Great pictures and presentation, and the case is a great idea.

We use those Pelican cases a lot in the IT industry for transporting important data and equipment. You can get them waterproof and they lock down tight like little beasts, so if you want to store nicotine away from the little ones, that type of case would be a good choice.

Wow. Are you a Pro Commercial Photographer or Photo-Stylist? If not, you certainly could be. Kudos and welcome to Super T!:vapor:

LOL....photography is one of my hobbies. I figured that this would be a perfect opportunity to brush up my product-photography skills. I like how they came out, but my lighting sucked. I was only working with one flash so it took a lot of trial and error to minimize the shadows. If only I had two more light boxes...they would have been almost as perfect as my P10 and P16!

Haha I bought a pelican case too after buying my precise! Just waiting for the precise to get here so i can put it inside. Pelican 1030 and 1020 cases are a good size for this. I believe its the 1020 in the photo. The only problem is mine didn't come with that customizable foam :( Ill have to order some. I went with the 1030 for a little extra room for liquid, batteries, chargers, whatever. I ordered my case from b&h photo supply for about 15 bucks

Wow, those are some really kick ... photos! You have some talent!

I really think you need to send those units back to me for safe keeping :)

David, if you ever have the need for product-style photography pictures of any Super T products, feel free to send them to me and I'll do my best to deliver Super T quality photos :2cool:

...I believe its the 1020 in the photo...

The one in the picture is the 1040 case, and it's the perfect size for carrying multiple PV's. The 1010's are sufficient for a single PV plus cartos and batts. If you want to carry a bottle or two of juice, I would suggest at least the 1020 or larger.

Just a small update:

I got a few of the Super T shorty SS T-tips, and they're a perfect match. The fit and finish are identical to the Precises, and I prefer the shorter length of these over the Pyrex tips I was using before. When fitted on an atty/carto, the shorty measures 14mm (Pyrex measures in at 26mm, but that length varies since they're hand blown and no two are exactly the same). They feel very smooth; not as smooth as the Pyrex tips but pretty close. The shorties are a snug fit and take a small amount of force to put on, but they are much easier than the Pyrex tips, which can be a PITA to put on/take off.

Bump again... great pix! I love the bevel on the P16, is it too late to get that on mine?

At the moment, i've had to freeze all extra machining requests on pending orders(with the exception of vent holes). However, that is not a permanent calculus, and once i get caught back up, feel free to send the cap back in and i can bevel it. :)
