Congrats David,

i like it a lot. Don't think i would use it all day every day, but i would get one just to keep in the car. Even the short drive to work (35 mins) would be so much better with this. Nothing worse than needing to drip and the next set of lights stay on green!

Im VERY quiet on these forums (any forum really) although i do read them daily and been looking forward to this for ages. So the very fact that i logged on shows you just how impressed i am!

Keep up the good work!

Still hoping for the mini soap dispenser though! any chance David nudge, nudge. :laugh:

I think one of the problems we often run into in manufacturing is, you have alot of "armchair quarterbacks", who have their own idea how such and such should or could be made. Problem is, there is a big difference between "ideas" / could've / should've and actually excuting said ideas into a working, viable product.

There is a reason that, over 2 years into the ecig market, there are scarce juice feeders on the market as, though simple to create ideas in one's head about how it could be, the reality of actually making a feeder that works and is universal is no simple task.

Heck it suits my purposes perfectly. I prefer to drip 95% of the time anyway and only need a juicer for when I need to keep my eyes on the road. I don't want to buy a entire box mod for that purpose and I don't want anything complicated. Seems like it hit my demographic spot on.
Now whats the deal with the 306 adaptor? add-on or different unit? Ready soon or in a few? Needs a long time 306/superT user to beta test or is it pretty much figured out? These are the important questions.

Considering all the hype that was drummed up wrt this device, I must say I am terribly disappointed.

It is well designed and as usual the machining is flawless and some of the ideas innovative.

My greatest disappointment stems from all the promotion I did behind the scenes wrt wait David has something coming out that will revolutionise the industry. I won't be doing that again any time soon.
Wow. What a stupid comment. Perhaps part of this HYPE you're talking of stems from the very promoting you did WITHOUT David even asking you to do.

Please DON'T anytime soon...:facepalm:

Thanks Wacky, i think i better not talk about the box mod either...lol. I think maybe a bit of dis-sppointment for some with this design is it's not an integrated design, it's universal fit, so it's lines may not appeal to everyone. The box mod's feed system is totally integrated though.

Yeah you'd better not talk about it Dave, or else someone might take it upon themselves to spread the hype only to whine and ..... about it later....

You rock man and you are definitely doing the right thing. Thicken that skin up man! Don't let a couple punks ruin your day just because THEY'RE unhappy.

In the end, you have a great, innovative product that will make the ones that count happy.

somewhere out there......
The device is simple, durable and best of all its machine into one part.... So what if you can see the bottle, when your home what difference does that make anyway.... I'm tired of trying to find a spot to place my bottle after dripping and then when needing to drip I have to go looking for the bottle... If you ask me this device will not only make your vaping more pleasurable, but it will also make it less stressful...

Seriously how much easier can this get... just screw on a bottle, put the device on the attie, pop on the drip tip and your good to go.... its leak free, universal to any device that uses a 510 or 901.... and best of all any vapor can use this.

If you want something that looks like an AVS then go use that... but it comes with all kind of issues, like multiple parts, can only use modified atties for the AVS, constant leaking, to much liquid in the mouth or not enough eliquid going to the attie, and all kinds of other issues.

David put a lot of work into this device, so we wouldn't have to deal with all the problems of vaping... He took the mess out of vaping... and that is true innovation.... taking simplicity to another level... This design is a lot more complicated then it looks as far as machined quality...

I bet 1 juice feeder takes several hours to make... then another 2 + hours putting it together and adding the finishing touches.... This device may be simple to use but hardly simple to create.

'Tis your fault for setting the Super T bar so high, Sir. =)

The VapeMate on its OWN accord is the same stylish/sleek/creative innovation from Super T as anything that has ever been marketed. The adaption to the PV itself is where it gets unusual looking which is what I think causes some disappointment.

I think some envisioned a cylindrical device that sleeved over the atomizer yet didn't make the PV any wider OR longer. LOL! IOW, a reservoir that defied the laws of physics -- it should hold 10 mls of liquid but be smaller than a 10 ml bottle regardless of the final contoured shape. Good luck with that. =)

Personally, I would feel a touch self-conscious using the VapeMate in public -- but that's just me. I tend to stealth vape almost ALL the time because I've grown tired of explaining to people what I am "smoking". Some vapers like the confrontation, however, or could care less. It takes all kinds.

In your video you mention that the sight glass is useful but that the VapeMate becomes more of a *feel* thing with practice. Toward that end, I can see the VapeMate as a very useful device, in my case, for driving. And, for anyone who has ever dripped while driving, a VERY SAFE alternative. Couple that feature with a 18650 or larger battery and the days of worrying about battery life and atomizer feeding while on a long drive is a distant memory. (get it? long drive and distant memory? I slay me, I tell ya)

Note -- You do a nice job in the videos, I guess, but I miss the first MODEL that appeared in the Super T videos. That young lady had some serious talent and was MUCH easier on the eyes. It wouldn't take ALL that much effort to drive on over there with a cam in hand, ya know. (oh, and bring a cheese cake) <g>

well said

Bottom line... I bet the feeder works great.
Would be perfect for the car and long vape sessions.
(dripping and driving is very dangerous!)

Seems like something a heavy vaper would really appreciate as well.

Keep up the outstanding customer service David. =)

Just placed my order for one to try out. I have 5 bottom feeders, and all of my other mods are just collecting dust - SP2 Sparkplug & Screwdriver MKII. This will allow me to drag them out of the drawer & use them.
Just as you said, banjo, since I've become accustomed to my Phidias's and Reo's, with their juice-feed systems, my other mods sit pretty much unused (except when out and about). This device will allow me to use all my mods at anytime. And I think it looks to be a solid, well-thought out device. In addition, it looks like it will be a conversation starter as well. For those reasons, I just placed an order. Now the wait begins. :D

This in deed will be worth while.
Need adaptors for the 901's and 801's.. Even use it on LR atties, which would be a cool feture.
I'm in and hopefully I'll be able to have the $$ as I need to move as I'm loosing my home..
I'll take one, David..

Don't see a need for an adapter for a 901, they are the same diameter as far as I can tell. In fact I have used cartridges for 510's in 901's. an 801 is another story.

I guessed it... when you said up to 30ml I knew exactly what you were up to. Very nicely done Dave. I will certainly have to get one of these bad boys to use. And as for out and about. I would strap a scuba tank to my back if it means I don't have to smoke anymore. And messing around with dripping while driving is a real PITA. I know all to well all of the downfalls of the OTHER style feed system and this is exactly what I have been wanting for a long time. Very nice... and anodized too! I can see some custom bottles in the future! Why not make some really cool colored bottles for us? This is the most original design I have seen to date dealing with the whole juice delivery system. Carts suck, dripping is a PITA (not so much with a t-tip but..) and the "Auto" feeder is... well I will stop there...

Awesome work again Dave, it looks nice on the Shockwave too.
