Thanks Jameth, I appreciate the info.

It appears USPS tracking is not all that is getting refreshed every few minutes. That was a quick response.

You know it

I ship stuff pretty much all the time and have to say that the good thing about USPS is post is rarely actually lost but the track and confirm side of things....underwhelming

I guess I can start hitting USPS tracking refresh every few minutes.

I just received shipping notice.

 

[jameth]

Right on!

I guess tomorrow is the magic day for me, damn you USPS for getting my hopes up!

In related bad news, I just broke the glass on my fogger.... Which I had just rebuilt with a 3 ohm coil that I couldn't wait to sit atop the XPV...

Guess I'll be recoiling my KFL, currently sitting at 1.5 ohms for egos...

 

[Andy Thatcher]

Hope yours comes through.

Just checked and no movement on my order.

 

[Andy Thatcher]

Just hit Orlando just over an hour ago so should have it today I am thinking.

 

[jameth]

Right on, mine showed it was "procesed through sort facility" in salt Lake City at 2:11 AM this morning, which is about 6 hours away from me in perfect weather.

We are far from perfect weather right now in this area, especially up north twards SLC.

Not so sure I will even get it today, DOH!

I guess we will see, maybe USPS will surprise me.

 

[Mattnatti]

Hopefully you guys get your today. Fingers crossed. I am looking for more real world pics.
My tracking shows expected delivery for Monday the 16th. That is the longest 3 day priority delivery Eva!

They may surprise me though. Luckily I am near a major airport and a couple Usps sort facilities.

Looking like mine's gonna be in USPS hands another day...

gah...

 

[Mattnatti]

That sucks, so much for Usps new advertising campaign saying improved tracking and arrival when it says or some such stuff.

LUUUUUCKKKKYYYYYYYYY!

Guess I will be seeing mine tomorrow, 3 day delivery my ... USPS....

I don't think they understand the definition of "three" OR "day" OR "priority", let alone the meaning of them all put together.

That mini looks nice.

I have been reading this thread thinking yeah will pull this apart when it gets here to show the inside picks....

Ok now I have it ain't happening lol

Initial, very initial, wish the 510 was sunk further down. Possibly made a mistake of not getting the normal XPV but I have the Mini plugged into the laptop I am typing on and...all good.

Build quality is very good. Have to agree that the top screws could be counter sunk but no deal breaker. Switch is light and positive.

Altogether rather happy will see how it goes. Looking forward to reading others thoughts.

Andy Thatcher -- mini looks great! Grats that the USPS found you!

Jameth -- hang in there - finger's crossed you'll be vaping on an XPV tomorrow!

Yea; Pulled the trigger on this 5 mins ago on their "Order Form " at least? we will see; start to finish, the length of time to get it into my sweaty hands... Ordered in the black livery with the black fire button and the low profile 510 with the Panasonic 18650 (I already use the Orbtronic version of this cell). The ProtoVapor XPV will be joining it's siblings at home, a Provari 18650 in white and the Chi you clone in Chrome/Gold. Thinking that my KFL+ would be right at home here on the XPV... Psyched.

Yea should have mine today, though my tracking hasn't updated as out for delivery just yet.

Managed to fix my Fogger by using an old plexi carto tank that just so happened to have the same inside diameter as the Fogger's original glass.

Just in time, built a coil just for the XPV at 2.9 ohms, can't wait to send more then the 8.6 watts or so that I am limited to with the MVP at 5 volts.

 

[jameth]

Weee tracking finally updated to show it in my local sort facility, wooo!

Should make it onto a truck and into my box today, of course mail man doesn't hit my box till about 3:00 pm local time, so I Have another 6 hours or so AAHHHH!

Can't wait!

 

[Andy Thatcher]

So first days use in anger.

Not anger really lol

If you are considering the Mini as your all day driver I would suggest that this is done only if you have ready access to a phone charger. There is no way the 18350 device has enough to last me a day without charging. To be honest when not vaping it is on the charger. This is not a bad thing just wouldn't expect it to last a day at work.

I knew this was a probability as when using a mech in 18350 I have to take 3 batterys with me at least. Have a phone charger on my desk at work so all good.
