It can also function as a mechanical. I don't really care for subohms, but I do like the more compact feel of a mech..
I suspected that after i hit reply, few problem though, first not all the mechanical parts are out yet, buying the part piecemeal and adding exchange rate and shipping and all that is going to end up more then a decent mechanical by itself will i would think. half the current price is for the vw section.

the setup your talking about is exactly why i have a kicked roller :D

Thrasher or any Cloud 9 customers: How long average was your wait time for shipping from the UK ?........East coast ?

Ive bought from them several times. They ship quickly and if I remember right its usually a week to 10 days.

Being in Georgia should speed up the process a little Id think.

I took the plunge only thing is they had the matte finish, I'm gonna just sand it off. I know these are hard to come by so I got it. I have to say this thing is bad :censored: yes it does give Provari a run for the money.
That's all I will say. It was 215, with the 650 tube but I got the 490 tube as well so 250 out the door.
The place is legit and very nice. I drove 40mi u know I had to leave with it.
It does come with a 6 month factory warranty it's is well built. One thing I did notice a plus over the Provari
was the wires that are connected to the inside switch are covered, and the batt connections do have brass contacts.
My batt right now is at 3.6 gonna let it run low to see if it still vapes strong.
Nice device. The menu is a bit tricky have to get used to it. This is the vendor I got it from.
Semovar Mod - SvoëMesto - Variable Voltage - Devices

I got the same finish Semovar also from Vaporev as that was all they had in stock. I really don't get too excited over one finish vs the other. Performance is what matters to me and I am very pleased after 10 days or so with the Semovar.

Yeah I know..but I can justify why I'm spending so much on one PV to the woman with it's dual capabilities. I'll keep the kayfun a secret though..lol.

This has turned into Semovar vs I have to wait for mine to come discussion.

I am too, I made up in my mind to sand off the finish carefully of course.
Now here is one thing I do notice.
You know how you see some of the juice around the pin area. I have yet to see any. I always look for that because I am constantly wiping around that area.

Does the battery cap drop down low enough to have space for a kick?

I have no idea what a kick is. I'm sure I will get an explanation, and thanks.
But I would put this thing against a mech and rebuildable using a protank at 2.5 to 2.7 ohms
the vapor production would be close if not as good.
If someone can dispute, I will stand corrected.

It's an insert that fits on top of a battery that regulates the voltage, kind of turns a mech into a VV device

The Kick2 is a power regulated digital switch-mode DC-DC converter for personal vaporizers in the form of a drop in module. It features controlled power from 5 to 15 watts and runs from a single lithium battery. It employs synchronous rectification for superior efficiency. The Kick2 also boasts mod resistance compensation to ensure a more accurate power delivery.
Output Power:
5 Watts to 15 Watts
Output Voltage:
2 Volts to 6.3 Volts
Output Current:
6 Amps
atomizer resistances:
0.5 Ohms to 3.3 Ohms

one of the very few patented(pending) regulation chips there is, Evolv also makes the DNA 20 VW boards and this is the only direct (VW VS VW) competitor to the Nivel chip in the Semovar.


Oh thanks. Yeah why would u need a kick for this thing
Because one of the features of the semovar is it is totaly modular, they make several tubes and caps and a mechanical switch, you take it apart, put on a different head/510 connector, add a mechanical switch and use it that way.

I understand the point the other post made becuase even without the VW unit the tubes them selves are very well machined and would make a beautiful mechanical mod with one of the custom endcaps and bottom button
