Sounds like a bunch of high schoolers in here holy crap. I was gonna make a comment but I think it will make it worse lol

I have a V1 beast that I run with a Line on top and it is great. I also have 2 x SS"s, one with a Line and the other with a DiD and both give a fantastic vape.

I don't have short problems or coil problems but have been at Genisis for about 9 months so have had a bit of practice.

Any of the reported 'buzzing' when using your rba's? I personally don't get any of that on my v1 or v2.

 

[Ravenscroft]

I have not had buzzing at all (yet).

Are there any video reviews on the new ss vmax ( v4 )? Won't have mine until weds or so ..... Want to live vicariously through a video

I ordered 2 Vmax V2's for $77ea with batteries from The Vapor Station.

Under $71 delivered has to be the best deal going. The best I've seen from a Co-op is $63 with an unknown waiting period. I waited over six weeks, hardly worth a $8 savings.

Its going to be 30 days or so before they hit the market.

All I can say for now is I vape 1.5 ohm dual coils on it at 5 volts.

Stainless Steel with ego head like the newest vmax... lcd screen. No battery level check or ohms check and will be priced 20---30 dollars less than vmax. Not a lavatube clone either

Does it have separate buttons for setting voltage like the LT?

No. Just one button. Like that other VV that shall remain nameless

Per ecf rules and to be kind to vmax users I will post more info when they come in on another thread

Please post the link to that device here!

Unless that is not the right thing... I just saved a page with your latest posts and will follow there if not...

I run either a single 3.0 ohm coil or a 2.5 ohm dual coil setup on the VMax with the Phoenix RA using either SS mesh or silica wick around 5 volts and it's the most tastiest flavorful mouth fulls of 10 foot plumes I ever had by far. Am I the only one that experiences this?

That's well beyond anything I've ever experienced. A couple of profile pictures, even better a short profile video would be nice.

I want 1 real bad but won't go there for it, trying to find one in the classies for trade or purchase. But thanks for the heads up Hill.

Have you tried a DC setup in the Phoenix RA on the VMax at around 5 volts? I'll show it in the upcoming V2/R4 VMax review.

Anyone else in here ever have a problem with stacked batteries?

I really thought all the "don't stack batteries" statements were a bit exagerated...

But saturday I had two batteries burst into flames inside a tube mod lol.

Luckily it was in one of my Siam mods Cubes, so the batteries were the only thing that got damaged. (had to wash the cube to get the smoke smell out though)

Not sure what the hell happened, but im kinda worried now (Im not going have a mod on the table next to my bed at night anymore thats for sure)

The batteries were 2 blue 16340 joyetech batteries.

I've been vaping for 2 years now. I know what I'm doing The Vmax SUCKS!!!

Disrespectfully disagree.

It would probably be the outside can of first battery in grounded to tube causing last battery in to be shorted. Farther back in this thread there is a post about spot of solder getting splashed onto batteries plastic cover and grounding to tube creating burnt smell. I put a thin plastic sleeve in mine just as I do with my Mag-Lite
The outside of forward battery is not exactly negative when stacked, it becomes the positive of battery behind it
