Vapage calls the outer portion shells on their site...

• Outer shell is hard-anodized 7000 series aluminum
• Multiple anodized colors available for the cone and outer shell.

These new (anodized on the prints?) colors are pretty cool, but function is more important to this vaper. I hung back on chassis replacement in hopes I would get them with the cup installed by them. I doubt that will be the case, so will muddle like everyone else. I have a good selection of hemostats, but these eyes are getting old :lol:

Looks like Vapage is gonna ROCK vapefest next month :)

Here is something I think will enlighten and help in the feeding of your Vmods. Stolen from the IKV forum. No secret I am a fan and ran IKV exclusively until I found the hybrids. I did this same test on a blown out 2.0 BF hybrid to the same results with 80PG/20VG juice. The 5 second draw on vape 21 choked me just as good if not more :laugh:

I seem to remember some asking about macro pics of the catch cup, and not sure if this has already been done. But here are some close ups of the catch cup in place and a blurb at the bottom on how I did it.

I cut the "ignition" + wire slit with fingernail clippers. Used a drop of juice on the cup to lube it lightly as once it's in the cavity, you will most likely need to rotate it to where the slit will align to the + wire and the wire will fall into place within the slit. I used curved tweezers and a dental pick to get the cup in the cavity.
Hope this helps.

TY Ken, very kind. Since I just put in for replacements, I don't expect to have them for a week or so. BTW, it is 4 chassis:D

Ya never know though. I ordered attys too, and maybe I will be surprised.

Most excellent shots! I like the lube tip.
