Can someone just confirm for me the parts that I would need to order to build that mod in the picture? Is it just a SM V3 base kit + sticker?
Thanks

I don't have one (sticker), but that is my understanding, i.e., semo + sticker. Do have the Semovar full kit and lovin' it.
There are two different stickers. One for the mini/eGo combo and the other for the Semovar/ KF,KFL combos. The only place I have seen the later in stock( the one you need) is at shop.svoemesto.ru
And I'm pretty sure svoemesto doesn't send to the USA? If they do, I couldn't find it listed as I proceeded with checkout? I can't remember what I was trying to order...I think it was a to insulator. No U.S.A. shipping that I could find....someone correct me
I haven't used this site before, but they appear to have the sticker in stock:
Svoe Mesto Sticker
They do have international shipping, but I don't know if they ship to the US. Check it out. Maybe...

They do ship to the US, for around 10 dollars. I know because I just received a bunch of kayfun parts from them.

svoemesto.de ( Germany ) doesn't ship to the USA but svoemesto.ru ( Russia ) does. They take PayPal and international shipping is about 14 dollars.
Yes sir, that looks like the one I had in mindI see you've got the 3400mah Panasonic batteries there from intaste, I'm assuming? Could you link me up to a place where I could find that mod? Thank you!
The mod is a Semovar in 18650 mode, the bit at the bottom that connects is called a sticker. It is available from SvoeMesto.de
Sticker (brushed) - SM Nivel
It's not cheap at 60 + shipping but I wanted it and it was Christmas.
it makes an 18650 Semo easily pocketable.In this mode you need button top batteries (the one in the pic is a 2900mah Panasonic PD. I have just ordered the 3400mah button top NCR18650B to use in it.
Thanks, I ordered everything today and yes, it wasn't cheap lol.
Regarding the batteries, here is what svoemesto sent me. Unfortunately it's in Russian, but the charts are labeled. I've also ordered some of the Sanyo batteries that he's recommended. I'm not sure what to believe when it comes to batteries as these tests can be manipulated a number of ways. I've pasted his info below.

We use Sanyo 2600mah like this F7.

As you can see, those charts show that higher mah numbers don't translate into longer life at sustained power. I don't know what to believe anymore personally. I've seen tests from 3 different sources, each claiming to be the better performing and safest battery. I'm going to try them all, brand new, at my vaping voltage (3.5-3.6v) for both the Provari and Semovar on the KFL. I've been using the Panisonic brand (Orbtronic 2900mah and 2500mah) in my Provaris for a long time. I also have some AW's. Batteries never hold their charge exactly as they did when they were new, so it can't hurt to have some extras. I've been dying to try the 3400mah for a while anyway.

Intaste does not have the button top Panasonic 3400mah batteries, even though you can clearly see one in the photo. I've also heard that any button top with protection will not fit a Provari. Ideally I want batteries that I can interchange between the Provari and SM. I guess I'll have to get some new Orbtronics or stick with what I have.
I use AW IMR's in both of mine. Sure, they're only 2000 mah, but I just bought another four for $36 delivered:
AW IMR 18650 Li MN Battery High Drain 3 7V 2000mAh with Buttom Top 2pc Pack | eBay
Alternatively, there are many batteries out there like a pair of AW's for the Provari's and Pannies or Sony's or even MNKE's for the Semo.
What do you mean? You finally got there!
Double it, may mean trouble, but you like fine right now. Any mechs?
That's what I was saying. Your collection looks perfect to me the way it is right now. Are you the only vaper?
Yeah, I have a very similar collection of high-end devices that I share with the missus. I totally get it, my friend.
