Volt PCC?

[dbhc]

Hey all!

So, I learned that the Volt does have a charging case now.
But haven't been able to find a Canadian vendor that sells it.
Is there a supplier that sells only the case in Canada?

Hey there! I replied to your thread in the New Member's Forum, but you may not have seen it so here it is:

Yes - Smokeless Image carries slider pcc's for the Volt. I've ordered from them a few times (no nic, just hardware) and although it gets hung up at the border for a bit, I've always received my orders package between 10-14 days from ordering.

The Canadian distributor for Volt kits and supplies is/was Best Vapour, but (VERY) unfortunately he just announced he was clearing his inventory and closing up shop by December 31. Last I checked he didn't have any pcc's left but he still has some pre-filled Volt cartomizers in stock for only $6.99!! That is an absolutely crazy deal and you should considering taking a look at what he has left in stock.

Back to the pcc - the slider pcc that Volt currently uses is pretty much identical to the Bloog pcc, which you can buy in Canada at Canadian Electronics Vapors and Happy Vaper (there may be more people that carry it but those are the two that come to mind). Canvape also carries a slider pcc that will work with your Volt (for about $22).

Before you decide to buy a pcc, you should be aware that Smokeless Image is very close to releasing their new mega pcc that is supposed to have around a 2200 mah battery that will charge two Volt batteries at once and store a few cartos as well. I personally think that one might be worth the wait. There is a different 'mega charger' on the market but has received REALLY bad reviews - it sounds like it's just not strong enough to properly charge one battery at a time, nevermind two.

There are a lot of different carrying cases out there, but most will hold the batteries and a couple of cartos but not fully assembled pv's. Here's an example of a bloog case: Canadian Electronic Cigarette Bloog MaxxFusion Carrying Case

Good luck in your search and enjoy your Volt! I'm loving mine.

Sorry about the double post and thank you so much for the info!

One question though. How did you know about the mega pcc that smokeless is releasing?
I can't find any mention of it on the site.
I only ask because I want to keep my eyes peeled for 'em.

Same thing as the Volt PCC

LOL No need to apologize about a double post. I honestly wasn't scolding! lol. I just wasn't sure if you'd seen my reply and I wanted to make sure you got the info.

I found out about the new PCC on the Official Smokeless Image thread. Their rep Imagine has been teasing us with pics. There isn't any info on their website yet.

It's supposed to be out very soon and will be priced around $43.

If you have a Volt you should definitely check out the SI thread. They're an awesome company and really listen to their customers on the forum. If you're wondering when something will be in stock, they will give you the answer. Any questions? Yup, they're on it. Think they should carry blingy end caps? Yup, they look into it and start carrying it. I've never seen anything like it! Great company.

I try to buy from Canadian vendors as much as possible, but I've bought directly from SI a few times because they have lots of accessories (love those bling caps) and have more colour choices for Volt batteries and LEDs. Still, I'm totally bummed that Best Vapour is closing down, because he did his best to keep up to date with what SI was offering, and kept his prices on par with prices from SI, which is beyond amazing. And, of course, he is awesome to deal with and ships super fast. Sigh... I'll miss Best Vapour.

Cheers!

Thanks for the link and info guys!

I searched through that thread and saw the picture. Which was SUPER teaser. Like watching a 10s movie trailer.

Anywho, I think I'll wait to see how it is. The better battery sounds great but $43 seems a tad steep for me.
My only requirement is portability. So, if it isn't rambo sized, I'll go for it.
Otherwise, the generic stuff looks like it'll work for me.

Thanks again guys!

Well, I'll punch the monkey and bring fate on; I've used the "bad review" Volt/Bloog/Kr808 charger with no issues for 3 months now and have 4 friends and co-workers that I've gotten started vaping that are also using this same charger with no problems at all - charges batts fully, even 2 at a time.

I'm glad to hear it works so well!! I actually have a free one in the mail from a Smokeless Image promotion they were running last month. I checked out some youtube reviews and they weren't very positive, so I thought I'd only be using the mega pcc as a backup or for storing batteries and cartos, but now I'm excited to get it!

Perhaps they've fixed them? I know Steeljan ran some voltage tests on 'em and tore one down to find out why it sucked and the results were pretty dismal.

Yeah - SteelJan's review was the one I based my opinion on. Based on her tests, I thought 'the numbers can't lie', but maybe the mega pcc has been updated since that review (and perhaps based on that review!) It sounds like others are having good luck with them, so I anxiously await my mega pcc!
