I told ya, those phoenix are teriffic!

Try the nova. You'll be even more impressed. Bet you even stop using the fusions setup.

Formal challenge.... lol!

Oh I'm all over the Nova when they get up here to my local (favorite) vendor. These will even be the new v.2.5 variety :)
I think I need another tackle box.

Ha! I gave up on the tackle box. I got one of those four drawer plastic carts on wheels for all my gear and diy juice stuff. I have a ton of diy juice mixing stuff. I even make all my own coffee, tea, herbal concentrates to vape. I make some daem good juice too, but credit where credit is due... I owe it all to the folks in the diy juice forum. I pay pennies to vape which is great cause it means I can save more for equipment and being on a fixed income its nice to be able to buy toys like vmax's!

The stuff in rotation sits by me on the couch in a wood setup I drilled some holes in. Went to A.C. Moore and bought one of those wood picture box frames and a wood cube. Cut about an inch off the bottom of the cube, screwed it inside the box, drilled some holes to stand up my PV's in the top of the cube. Smaller holes for some of my adapters to sit in. Works great. Even have my glass juice bottles up to 30ml size fit perfect along the sides.

Some great ideas here. Just don't let my wife see this post. I've almost convinced her my vaping expenditures to date have all been nothing but frugal and completely necessary to keep me off the ciggies :blink:

I just "bit the bullet" and bought a stainless steel Vmax from a vendor in Germany, hopefully it'll arrive by Friday (bet it doesn't though) I also ordered a steel Tripolitis-Tower Tank to go with it - should look very sweet.

I toyed with selling my V1 "Beast" Vmax but thankfully I changed my mind. I'm still toying with the idea of popping the atty connection and stripping/repainting it so it will look nicer with the Arry tank that I have;

Don't sell that sucker, it's going to be somewhat of a collectors item since they are not being sold anymore and it's the most powerful vv out there!!:evil:

Forgot to mention, ANY WHO LOVES A GOOD BUTTERSCOTCH JUICE.........You must go to www.virginiacustomblends.com and try their butterscotch, I have NEVER had a flavor that was not only this good but SPOT ON in flavor, if you like a good sweet 555 he also has the best of that flavor also. Make sure you put in the notes "J sent you" , ....Free samples. I think I've tried every Butterscotch out there...clouds of vapor being the absolute worse, ec blend being pretty good...or what I thought was good....but this VAcustomblends.....HOLY JUICE. 50mL is just simply not near enough. I'll put the Pepsi challenge on this stuff.

The links not working....is this the site? Virginia Custom Blend LLC I love butterscotch and I'm in VA so shipping would be nice and fast.

Thanks

Guess whos got a hot new shiny chrome Vmax with a Vivi Nova and metallic red metal tube lookin all flashy and stylin?

I do!

This thing hits hard. Ive had to dial back at least .5 volts to where I was at with the LT. I tried out an ego c atty at 2.4 ohms on it too with an adapter and it works great. With the LT all I got was dry hits. On the vmax I can run it fine.

Right now I got a 1.9 ohm atty in the vivi at 3.3v and its stellar.

Thanks for convincing me to get this everyone, and all the help and info. Im very happy. So far this makes a LT look cheap by comparison. It just works and feels wayyyyyyy better.

I have some 1.7 ohm Resurrectors and my max is burning them up!! Even at 3v. :( o how i need a good vape.....

My V1 V-Max rocks at 5.2 volts on a 3.0-3.2 ohm atty. Really nice TH and vapor....puts any other device I got to shame. The only thing it wouldn't fire was a 1.2 ohm DC atty...got the F1. I find that with LR stuff you don't have to take such a long drag and still get the same vapor/TH as you would with a long drag....wich in return you don't get dry/burnt hits.
