LOLz!! I knew what you meant, and my fingers are crossed on this one. Hopefully it won't be just a pretty paper weight, I already have plenty of those!

Decided to drop back in and check out how VF has been doing these few weeks. Doesn't seem to have gotten any better huh :/ shoutout to heespharm: you're truly the only person with worse luck than me

Good luck buddy!!! Third time's the charm! (Although you're waaaay past third time but still....)

VTC4... I have to either smash the flask repeatedly and violently or drag the battery out with a tweezer lol.
The USB port is not really an issue, I don't charge my batteries via USB anyway, it's wayyyy too slow and I have a nitecore anyway.
The biggest issue is the stuck battery slot, it's just too much of a hassle to go through every single day changing out my battery.
I will probably ask for an exchange or refund, I thought I could deal with it but it's just too much. I will ask my vendor to personally inspect the device for complete functionality before shipping a new device, or I will ask for a refund and get another device I suppose. I'm really disappointed because the VF is so damn beautiful, it's a DNA40 device, and it has dual removable 18650s... a dream if it was manufactured properly.
I've had mine a few weeks. No screen issues, my batteries slide in and out easily and haven't had any "learning curve" issues with the ni200 builds. It's beautiful and I love it. Hope you have a nice experience as well!
Yeah I posted a few pages back about the same thing. Preston @ VF can be reached at customerservice@vaporflask.com in the meantime...that's his direct email......
Hopefully VF contacts me back on this email cause I have been trying to reach them from another email the past week and no response from the info@vaporflask.com email. Screen is jarbled and is randomly all pixels.
reading through this thread and the lack of communication from vapinart and from vapor flask has me worried. seems most are without their devices for a long time? I don't have any visual or usb defects but the screen is unreadable at random. battery indicator on same charge sometimes is half full or just full. what kind of time frames can i expect from those who had to get rma?
Vapinart was very responsive when I contacted them. They at least handled my issue quickly.
So far regular kanthal builds work beautifully however I've yet to get temp control to work.

Well functioning but with the same physical flaws

The only one I had was a crooked screen... So if that's fixed then... Yay! But we'll see... With my luck..

My money says complete new unit. Heespharm, did you think to write down the magic code/serial number or whatever it is and take pictures of any blemishes? I don't see how they could possibly have enough invested in one to justify repairing it... but what do I know.
AH hehe maybe I needa qualify my statement. I expect you to get a brand new unit, but with the physical "flaws" (as defined by me: goddang ....ty threads, weird button heights etc)
ETA: now my greatest interest would be whether you got the latest revision chip. I'm 90% sure no... But who knows? It's about time you broke your bad luck streak

Glad to see I am not the only one to have trouble with ECF's post editor.
Sure would be nice if he gets the latest and greatest version. I know it will be a long time before I ever buy technology this new that is not software upgradable online. It does have a USB port how hard could it be to add a wire or two to the chips software programming port.
I marked the inside of mine... ;-) so we'll see as far as the buttons, I don't care... As long as vtc5 fit in it I'll be happy... I already have micro torx multi bit screwdriver from when I did repairs in my other hobby... So I'm ready... I'm also getting 2 hellfire atties and my Kayfun 4 tomorrow... Merry Xmas everyone...
HAHAHHA that's what I always tell myself. And then something new drops and I go into a feeding frenzy
That would be a sweet feature, and certainly one that makes a ton of sense for something like this. But alas, it was not to be
A sx350 device maybe? I've been looking at the SXMini

Yay! It's finally here. Big shout out to the folks at VF for the outstanding customer service. My NEW V2 DNA40 (latest revision) has arrived. I'm headed out to get some new batteries for it and I have a new Kayfun waiting for my first ni200 build. Can't wait to experience it.
Still waiting on mine to come back from having a new chip installed....been almost 2 weeks now. Hopefully soon!! If I get it back by Xmas I'll be a happy camper!
My VF showed up from VapinArt today. So far, so good: Looks perfect and performs perfectly. Fingers crossed.
btw, mine switches from Fahrenheit and Celsius, so I guess it's the latest chip

If you use FB you can contact Preston easily in the Vapor Flask Owner's group. He is very prompt in responding there.
