It was 750 mAh. Innokin iTaste VV4 Express Kit 750mAh, 15w, 0.8ohm
It was longer and had less mAh than the VV3 ???
Edit: Your second link was to fastech who is famous for getting things not quite right.

Actually the VV4 is 1000mAh (not 1100mAh)
The reason I was wanting to buy the shorter 750mAh VV4 is that when you screw a Kanger Aerotank Mini on the longer 1000mAh VV4, the whole setup just seems too long for my liking ... so I am happier with the shorter 750mAh version of the VV4.
The strange part about all this VV4 is that some vendors claim it is 680mAh and other vendors say it's 750mAh

The length of the V4s is a bit of an issue to me. The V3s seemed more than long enough already, but I loved them and used them everywhere. I would prefer it if there was a V4 that was as short as the V3, but I don't think there is one. I'd kind of prefer a shorter but fatter V5? Yeah, I don't see that happening either. Oh, well. That might be why I really only use the few V3s I have as backups nowadays. Even with prices dropping, I just don't see getting a V4. They are just too long for what they are.
Right you are, Flt! My error 
Yeah, the length put me off as well. Shorter and fatter would have been a better choice, BillyBC, agreed!

You mean that you don't then get bugged about how really you could by the same folks who think that everyone can and should vape exactly the same way that they do?
I don't even try to explain anymore that no, I really can't. There are very few people as understanding as @DavidOck below.Understood
Keep your eyes open, there used to be sales on "bricks" of Kanger single coils.
And keep all your old ones - might find someone who can rebuild them for you, or to PIF for their use
There are also deals like the My Freedom Smokes 40% off coils special - on through the 21st, code COILS40%. It has a limit of two packages, BUT for the Kangers they have separate listings/item #s for Protank, Unitank, Evod and T3s (which will work in the PTs) so you can really get 8 packs of 5. They must have dropped one listing, since I'm pretty sure I got 10 packs last time. Not that I'd ever game the system.

Well, just been around too many blocks too many times. And realized many years ago that if everyone was the same it would be REALLY boring!
And especially in vapeland, where, imo, the key is to stay an ex-smoker. How one does it is somewhere down the list, as long as each one of us finds the way that works - for us. Granted, if it works for you and not for me, then it's not for me. And vice versa, of course.
Being judgmental and dismissive is counter-productive to the primary goal - and not just in vapeland! (Isn't that the big problem with our "elected" officials??)
Well said. My desire is not to smoke. My methods work for me but my sound screwed up to someone else.
One of the best quotes on the internet!
Then they're the ones screwed up. You're vaping for you, not them
Ain't it the truth! One thing I run into with folks is this "so when are you gonna stop doing THAT?" as if "that" is a fate worse than death or something. I say "never," or something; one woman sez "oh, I just couldn't handle all that {makes hand to mouth motion} all the time." I just point out that 39 yrs of smoking made "that" {hand to mouth motion} part of ME, and very likely won't be subject to eradication. I could be wrong of course, but it's my experience that habitual BEHAVIOR is far harder to change than whether or not some substance is used.
In some other thread, someone said that rather than "worry" about nicotine, they've been vaping 0mg, and finally decided that since they were vaping 0mg, there was just no need to vape anymore, so they quit. I'm thinking, ok, see ya back here after your smoking relapse.
Or maybe they'll be smart and just have a "vaping relapse," but then we'll see 'em back when they need to learn about the light-years-ahead hardware available at that time. Andria

Oh, I don't know. I've known a few people who vaped to quit smoking, then eventually quit vaping, and have not relapsed back to either one, yet. For a lot of people that is clearly something that can successfully be done. Mind you, some of those people, strangely enough, really hated smoking, but they were addicted, so they continued to smoke...until they vaped. Me, I always liked to smoke. Sure, I was addicted as well, and it was habitual, but I still liked to do it. So vaping instead has worked out (with a few ups and downs) really well for me. As the years have gone by, and equipment has gotten better, I've slowly decreased my juice nicotine levels. I was struggling to get to 6mgs, but now I'm using 9mgs, and that has become too much for me - at least as an all day vape. I can now see eventually getting to 3mgs, then 0mgs of nicotine, and then...
Would I quit then? I don't know. I suspect not. I love vaping as much as I did smoking, and (along with being far less harmful) vaping is far more interesting to me than smoking ever was. That's a habit I don't mind so much, but other ex-smokers (who use vaping purely to quit smoking) can and do feel very differently about the subject. They want to be free and clear of the habit entirely. Good for them. I just hope they don't turn into the equivalent of ex-smokers who used to badger me all the time about smoking back when I still smoked. That was very annoying. We have enough anti-this and anti-that people around already. We don't need any more of them.
I think the operative word was "yet."
Lots of people quit smoking in all sorts of ways -- patches, gum, cold turkey. But the biggest problem is the relapse rate -- very very few can quit and stay that way, forever -- the habit is just so deeply ingrained for some of us, that while it might go on a vacation... it nearly always comes back. And even those who manage to *stay* quit, perhaps for their health (my mom with COPD is a great example), they still suffer cravings and yearnings for decades. That's just no way to live -- I certainly couldn't do it; I quit once for 3 months, completely cold turkey because in 1984, that's all there was -- but I suffered every minute of the day, even sleeping -- smoking *dreams* would chase me all night long! Finally I just couldn't stand it for one more second, and started back.
I think that those who manage to vape for a while at 0mg who think their "addiction" is therefore over, gravely underestimate the staying power of a long-practiced behavior which is a stress-reliever; stress always comes back, because that's life -- so then what do they do? Many, many, many of them go back to smoking.
Wanting to be free and clear of the habit entirely doesn't necessarily give one the power to do so -- vaping works because it *replaces* the dangerous habit with a far-safer one. I smoked for 39 yrs, and wanted to be free of it for probably the last 25-30 of that; it was only when I could replace it with something that felt very similar that I could actually make it happen.

I have found that the marriage between the Itaste VV4 and the Kanger pro tank 2 is great, not only do you get a rich flavorful vape on a great platform but it's fairly inexpensive.
Good combo, SF! Especially if you put one of the air flow controller bases on the PT2, makes it even better

So true I am very new to this but through trial and error and plenty of vape videos on YouTube, I have made great strides.
I also have a Kbox mini that I sub on.
Just for the record....I vape 85PG/15VG and have for years! I also DIY. I don't care for VG much because 1. It's too sweet. 2. It's too thick and gunks up coils too fast, 3. Don't like the taste of it in general. 4. It bothers my sinuses..causes congestion. I have been DIY-ing my juice since early 2012. I get plenty of "clouds"...don't suffer any lack there! I got a free bottle of juice from a vendor recently. Was supposed to be menthol (which I like) and it wasn't totally unfortunate...except it had too much VG in it. Muted the taste, plus I had to crank up my watts big time just to get it to made any vapor at all! Naaaah. Not for me! There ARE people who aren't enchanted with VG as the main ingredient of juice. We just don't bark as loud, I guess!On my last visit to a local vape shop, we were talking about DIY vs bought juice, naturally they were trying to sell me their juice. I just pointed out that none of them have the proper PG/VG balance for me (86/14); the guys says he's NEVER HEARD! of anyone vaping THAT MUCH PG! I felt like asking him "and because you've never heard of it, that makes it wrong?"
Fortunately the vape shop OWNER got him to shut it.

Yeah, it's a real shame that I can't try some of the really good ones that so many around here enjoy, like Nicoticket, but 70/30 is about twice as much VG as I can handle. I also have a couple of Pipe Sauce juices I acquired before I realized my problem with VG, and they're just languishing in the cabinet, tasty as they are, because 95% VG is like an invitation to the emergency room, for me.
I've gone back to 85/15 because of more-effective asthma medication, so I don't wheeze so much now, but even 80% PG would give me that mucus problem in the throat, even if it didn't bother my lungs too much. As my asthma continues to improve, I *might* be able to get to 82/18 or 83/17, but I really don't find it necessary -- as you said, I have plenty of vapor to satisfy me, and my wispy clouds don't annoy my husband -- unless I blow them right in front of the TV.
