@thegcpu had the short m tanks (i am guessing) which is what I am looking for and red short m tanks seem to be the hardest to find. May go with the smoke/black for now.

It's a standard Svoemesto tank on a Mod Factory K-Nano.These can all be had here.

Cloud 9 Vaping

Ebay has some but like you said there not the same color. The deep colored ones are true Svoemesto!



Here's the green one! I have all the colors but blue. Will be getting one as that's a new color.

Finally got my VS30. Had a notice in my mailbox and went and picked it up at the post office about 10 minutes away.

First impression: gunmetal color is nice. Not offensive in any way, but not anything that 'wows' me. Slight flaws in the finish in several spots; not a big deal, but it was $170, so it has to compete with the Provari which has (at least mine) a very tough finish without flaws.

It's definitely tiny. One of the small modern beepers that doctors still use is about the closest comparison I can think of.

Mine had an internal rattle. I opened it up, and guess what I found inside? An extra one of the little black adjustment buttons rattling around inside. So if yours rattles, open it up. You'll likely find the same. I guess the assembly people drop a button and just grab another one instead of retrieving the one they dropped. So I now have a spare button that I doubt I'll ever need, unless I lose one taking it apart. If you open yours, be careful because the "minus" button will just be floating there waiting to fall out if you tip it.

DNA screen is straight and fit and finish is good, but not great. The casting is a bit rough around the edges, but the finish hides it for the most part. Nitpicking, but again, for the price I'm going to.

The USB port seems sturdy and quality. A friend of mine just had the USB port fail on his VS20, so I'm going to be careful with it.

Power is impressive, but I think we all knew that. My 0.8 coils at 15W are plenty, with the battery supplying 3.9-4V depending on coil. I'll probably roll a bit higher resistance coils for this, in the 1.0-1.2 range.

Only a USB-to-Micro cord is supplied, with no wall charger. There are no instructions or other information in the package.

The air slots don't seem to provide much airflow -- my Spheroids have a much tighter draw on this than they do on my Paps Lux. That was a bit of a disappointment, since I planned on using them pretty much exclusively on the VS. I may work out a solution to this using a slotted washer, which I've done on other mods. Just plan on it being a tight draw if you use an atty with airholes in the 510 connection.

Switch is clicky and seems to be decent quality. I could do without the blue LED ring around it for a more proven switch, but it's not bad.

Overall I'm happy I got it. It's a DNA30 with 1200 mAh in a tiny package. Very pocketable, and solidly built. I just hope it'll stand up to day-to-day use, because that's what it's going to see.

I have all the fancy $15.00 to $30.00 and hate the ALL!

Give me a cheap little acrylic drip tip and I'm in heaven!

Funny thing is that just because of your comment today I used one and I'm hating life a work...

LOL

LOL, I like the plastic as well, figured I will try the fancy stuff (new to all this) and appreciate the feedback.

Your picture has me grueling, I have a KF clone with additional nano kit come in on Monday, just received (4) 5 Pawns and Provape liquids. Wire/cotton etc all coming net week. The FT stuff is probably going to take a while. All this for the VS :) (when it ships)
I will be like a kid in the amusement park, but making my first coils LOL
Still looking for a dripper to pick up as well that atomic looks nice, saw a nice clone version.

That wasn't much of an issue with the DNA-20 version 'cause no atty I've ever tried would seat flush on it. :laugh:

Question for those who got it already... is the fire button actually metal? In the renders on their website, it's supposed to be shiny silver/chrome and metal.... on all the gunmetal version pics I'm seeing... it looks black and perhaps plastic?

Button does in fact feel like metal. At least on the gunmetal one, it looks like a black chrome, hope the color lasts. It is nice and clicky with absolutely no rattle. If feels of quality.

By the way, this is my work setup today

I just noticed you can't really see the screen clearly in the pic, running a .8ohm double barrel at 18 watts.

Everything I've tried sits dead-flush on the 30. The 510 pin is fat and appears to be brass, and has quite a bit of travel in the spring.

Button is definitely metal (I knocked it against my tooth to check; always a good indicator). I just hope it lasts. Very nice, clicky action.

My only other complaint after using for a night is that the original orientation of the screen is actually the more comfortable way to use it (for me, a right-hander), but then the buttons are up for minus and down for plus, like the DNA-20 version. I'm still debating which way to keep it set.

And the screen should time out faster than 2 minutes, but that's a DNA thing. 30 seconds would have been plenty.
