Has anyone ever dealt with this site?

KSD Vamo Box 25W
Never heard of it. You should be able to find reviews or a facebook page if you google. Some chinese stores will advertise items they don't have in stock on speculation they can get it. Email them to verify they really have it.

Heaven's Gifts is another one that can have nos and they are very reliable. I don't remember if they sold that one. I liked it too. GB had the largest range of Kangaside products.

Sale starts tomorrow, Z v5 , w 25% a little over 10$ plus ship....I'm tempted, but I have enough!
I'm treasonous. I broke down and picked up a heavy provari 2 during the blem sale. They are similar enough that I'm on the fence. I only have 2 hands and 1 mouth. How many do I need? I can do mental gymnastics on that question until the end of time.

Have enough? NEVER.
Told ya' I could rationalize anything. It's a V5 and with the USB setting I can use as a large power bank + head it can be a torch too. Don't see that in many mods, right? That's just too killer of a price to ignore. I'm such a sucker.

My biggest issue is the cut off. I don't like sub ohming and I'm happy with 1.5 ohms, but manufacturers aren't and that has been driving me nuts. I don't coil my own and don't want to. For me to stay a vaper I need the convenience of a pack, not another hobby. It's hard to find tanks with coils over 1.3 ohms that work at < 15 watts. I was looking at Vaporwerx Nauty coils and those are rated at higher than 25 watts. Crap. Of course MV nauty coils are sold out like everywhere else with a decent store wide discount. Do those wattage rating really mean anything? I sorta hate anything saying "More vapor" anymore. Sorry, it's just not a smoking alternative then and that's fine but don't pretend it is.

So I got a V5 coming.

Got Vapes had their SMOK Zmax's "featured" at $79. I had to take a second look at that.

You might want to check out GS Air tanks and coils.

That's what I fill in with. I liked the .75 GS coil, but it's not going to work on my old tube mods. I wish they came apart for cleaning. I like the size variety, including their shortie. Have you tried rebuilding the coils? I've heard they were very easy and I know that day is coming. The Kabuki clones are ok, but another winner is the Ceratank. I think there's a thread on it here. Uses Kanger and Aspire coils. Very nice tank that'll last forever.

Here is the airhead thread.
Eleaf GS Air Fan : Part 2

also you might want to consider the Istick basic. Uses a gsair2 14 mm tank. Works great and is a wonderfully pocket friendly device. I think ecig.com has a CC right now too. I bought 4 of them and piffed 2 to get friends off of cigs.
They would be perfect if they had changeable batteries but last most of a day on the internal 2300 mah one. And charge fast too. 2 hours maybe? I get 12-15 ml of juice out of a charge.

    I just ordered 4 V3's and 2 Seven22's - gotta love the 26650 goodness in a regulated tub mod!

    I figure if all my fancy-dancy high priced TC mod's fail the old tube mods in VV mode will suite me fine. There was a day where I was actually thinking of adding a Seven22 to my mods at full retail. However the lure of inexpensive 2x18650 mods and TC won that time.

    For $9.95 shipped I figure I've paid more for batteries before.

    I have 2 basics and love them. I don't notice a drop in power until it's time to charge which is fine by me. They are as handy as a pack. I use them mainly as testers since my only complaint is refilling them every hour. I almost got the plato for that reason. I suspect a lot of new designs will hit the shelves before Aug 8th.

    Going retro this weekend while testing out my new V3!

    27429073136_461a56f128.jpg


    In 18350 configuration (as pictured) the battery only lasts a few hours at the most. Nice small and light. Dang that K1 is a 'toodle puffer's dream!

    They weigh a ton! They are only VW with the sensor to change wattage. They do have a YiHi chip in them.

    BYW: I'm on my 3rd 18350 on the V3. If luck holds out that will be it for today.
