I got my telescope from got vapes the newer vented version and ive been vaping for 3 years and have many expensive mods and this is by far my favorite, if your looking for an indestructible fully mechanical mod this is it, I only use it as an 18350 mod and its size and feel of it is solid, just my 2 cents

I had some concerns about the bottom button also, and to be honest, it was a little bit foreign for the first day. Now it's second nature and isn't an issue at all, I'm enjoying my telescope so much I've just ordered a second.
Do you all use your pinky, or are you able to hold it by the button and push the button up in other ways? Like, can you maybe grip it and grip tighter to activate the button? Or is it comfortable to use your 3 last fingers instead of just your pinky? I'm asking because I'm thinking of buying one of these buttt.. I don't want to use my pinky. Not at all. My pinky isn't very dexterous and when I use it for something, I get little cramps, or big cramps, or it feels weird.. So do you have to use it? Or can I use it with my other fingers comfortably?
It rests on the base of my little finger, but the activation process is actually more of a gentle gripping motion, the pinky is just there for support. You could use another finger to support the mod, it would just take a bit of getting used to.
I have had one of the telescopic mods for about 2 months, I am very happy with it, the bottom button could be a little shorter for my liking, but it's all good
Hello everyone. I have a quick question that I can't seem to find a simple answer for. I plan buying the Telescope tonight but unsure of the batteries. I will mostly use 18650's but would like the smallest ones as well just to play with around the house. I see 16340's as a choice but also 18350's?? What size batteries should I add to my order. Thanks for reading.
You'll want the 18350's, they're the 3.7 volt ones. I'm pretty sure the 16340's are 3.0 volt and are used for stacking and six volt vaping.
I normally use the 18490's in my Telescope, not too big and good battery life.

I mostly activate the button like Adam says...with the mod button supported at the base of my pinky...kind of in the "V" between the pinky and ring finger, and do a little squeezing motion to fire the mod. The pinky isn't really pushing up, it's more like a support. I also sometimes have the button resting on my ring finger and squeeze slightly up with it, instead...less of a fist hold, and more open. I have some arthritis in my hands and they don't suffer strain well. I don't find the button activation uncomfortable at all, but there was a little bit of a learning curve at first.
thanks fourthrok. question for adam the aussie, are the 18350s longer than the 16350s? I should probably just got check myself on madvapes but I get lost on that damn site. lol.
what is the normal price everyone is paying for these? I have a GUS and Paps on the way, but this look great.
The short answer is no, they should both be the same length, but this varies a little bit between models. Basically with batteries, the first two digits indicate the width and the next two digits indicate the length.
So a 16350 should be 16ml wide and 35ml long, and an 18350 is 18ml wide and 35ml long. The variances appear across different brands, but that's what the numbers are supposed to indicate.
The cheapest I've seen is $36 at Hoosier ecig, but everywhere is under $50.
they are usually around the $35 price for the mod and $45-50 for mod + battery
I'm not Adam...but both the 18350 and the 16350s are about 35mm long. The 18350s are around 800 mAh on average, and the 16350s are around 350 mAh
Oh...and Liberty Flights has the telescope for $34.99 if you click the 20% off button top left on the site.
