The range is okeedokee with me..lately I have been vaping at around 8.0w so 3.7 - 4.2 volts with a 2.0 - 2.5 ohm carto is good....I don't mind the design. I like it because it is green
Its tough to find an emerald/kelly green mod....most of them are some odd lime colour
For 14.00 I will def check it out

Yup - I like the green. I think you'll probably have to use a protected battery with it, though. If it's a basic mech it won't have in-built protection.

If you view the status of your order you'll see what items are ready, the shipping notice is mailed a day after it comes out of packaging and you'll see a picture of your package on the status page.
Then another day or so till the tracking number actually works and it'll sit in hong kong for awhile.

Best to forget about your order for a bit and have a tea or beer.

Thanks for your feedback on the jade "drip tips". I am seriously considering getting one or two.

Has anyone bought one of these little dragon heads?
$3.08 Dragon Head Brass Cartridge Adapter Drip Tip for Vivi Nova Atomizer at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

How are they? I hope they'll fit on a
$4.77 RDA Mini Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer (1.0mL) - 2.4 or $5.39 RDA Mini Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer (1.5mL) - 2.4

Having trouble deciding on dragons or skulls.. $3.05 Skull Brass Cartridge Adapter Drip Tip for Vivi Nova Atomizer at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

For that price though I could just get 2 of each.. Black and Chrome.

the mini rda "1.0ml" is a POS.
the air hole is WAY too big, the o-rings are too small and the cap piece won't stay on.
It can be fixed of course, but it's not worth the trouble. Trust me, it only LOOKS cool

Me too, I normally change my batteries at around 3.7 volts anyways, as the vape starts getting noticably lighter.

To clarify, the 3.7-4.2 volts is the operating range, not the range you can set it at. Like other unregulated devices, it'll start at 4.2 with a fully charged battery, and the power will decrease until it hit's 3.7 at the cut-off. So it acts like an unregulated batt like an Kgo or some of the eGos, instead of keeping the voltage the same throught the battery life as a regulated ego at 3.3 or 3.7 or whatever they are made to deliver at.

Since these take 14500 you'll get about the same time between charge as a 18350 batt. I think the IMR 14500 have around 600 to 800 mAh.

I don't know what it has for protection, other than a low battery protection if it cuts off at 3.7 volts. But even without protection an IMR or other safe-chemistry, high-drain unprotected battery would be fine. A protected li-ion would be fine too if kept under the battery's amp limit.

This is where I get a little confused, it says
White color: full power
Blue color: medium power
Red color: low power
I could be wrong, but I don't think it is a power indicator like the innokin red/yellow/green, which is an indicator of how much power is left in the batt.
I think the power level is actually set when you click until the above colours show.
3.7 is low, 4.2 is high (don't know what the medium one is, lol)

That's interesting. Does it work a bit like a twist?

 

[E_DeCastro]

Blimey! What resistance is your atomiser - and are you using a protected battery?

.9ohms 1100mah EH IMR not protected

I think you may be right. I was thinking power indicator since FT has no under VV. Other plactes list it as variable; one place shows 3.2, 3.6, and 4.2. Another place shows it as 3.6, 3.8, and 4.2. Kind of like those eGos with 3 voltage settings that came out before the Twist.

It's also suppose to look like bamboo. That might be a no-duh but I didn't make the connection lol. Kamry also states is has "healthy and environmental protection" so it does sound well protected lol.

This one looks like another similar deal that looks like a small flashlight but I dont think one could take the batt out (not sure), same colour schemes too

Lawd knows what that really means, lol
I don't think I can use a fuse because my ST fuse will fit only 18xxx batts (that just occurred to me).
I wish they would say if one needs protected batts in it. I would like to use IMRs.
Now I am confused as to what kind of batts to use in it.

 

[gully]

Looks like the X6 control head on an empty battery tube,that would make the voltage adjustable.

 

[e-pipeman]

.9ohms 1100mah EH IMR not protected

That makes sense then.

IMR's would be fine,the control head will provide some level of protection.

I have the X6 which has a built in battery, it has 3 voltage settings 3.6v 3.8v and 4.2v so it's like a semi VV, the X6 is built like a tank so if this is the same quality people will be happy.

How long does it usually take before I'm able to see USPS tracking? :O

Usually about a day...

...after it arrives in your mailbox.

Personally, I don't use a fuse with IMRs on my unprotected mechs. If your not comfortable with that you may want to look into what protection this one offers before using an unprotected battery, but honestly I think you'll be fine. What protection are you concerned abotu; shorts?

I think so (I think, lol)
I wish the descriptions were a little more...descriptive, lol)

Plus, it has healthy protection, which should protect against colds, the flu, and cold sores.

I am just spoiled by the VV/VW mods..they have all of the protection built in.
I'm getting a K100 and it will be my first mech..the unregulated world is a whole new ball of vape for me, lol
