Yes it does work,
its a brand new replacement sent although the one that was returned is working flawless and I have added that to my personal collection,

VapeKingMikes hadn't checked what was inside the package before posting on here.
no worries it happens.

That's very generous of you Ash, both in the replacement but also in your comments, nothing less than the majority of us expect from you, glad it has been sorted!

Very true Sal and yet another avoidable incident where a member has decided to air their grievance in public before ascertaining all the facts in private with the other party.

This sounds like the centre pin being pushed down too far when changing atomisers, all you ever neen to do is tighten an atomiser just enough for it to make contact (confirmed by listening to the hiss when you press the button on the MVP) and for it not to wobble.

We all sometimes tighten these down too far pushing the centre pin down inside the Ego connector, it's easily rectified (as you tried) by GENTLY prising up the centre pin. But it's good practice not to over-tigten in the first place.

Also all atomisers and connectors are not made equal, with small manufacturing differences between them and sometimes one atomiser will just not work with a device.

Hopefully you are happy now and your MVP is working okay.

I've seen a lot of this lately where new vapers move from basic kit to more advanced kit and then when they can't get it to work they are too quick to blame the product rather than there own incompetence.
Maybe that's the fault of the forum encouraging newbies to step up too quickly. I'm relatively new myself but before moving on from evods and egos to mechs/vw and RBA's I took the time to learn how to make my own coils and rewick etc. 
I think you need to learn the above principles before trying to run before you can walk.

LOL It is quite worrying when relative novices are buying mechs without understanding the safety issues connected with unregulated vaping - no real idea about batteries, ohms law, subohm coils etc. I myself was vaping for about 9 months before I even considered buying a mech and I read everything I could about the pros and cons and safety issues before taking the plunge. Perhaps the cheapness of the clones is to blame for people wanting to run before they can walk but it is going to end in tears someday, I fear.

I think the issue was with a mvp v2. Not a mech. It happens , we sometimes lose our rag when we get fustrated, especially if vaping is the key to stopping the smokes.

A lot of posts worry me but i try and stay out of it, as with all things google is your friend and there is masses amounts of guides on AAEC with do's and dont's, they MUST be read.

Buying something on a whim because the price looks too good to resist can end in failure, battery's are dangerous "FACT" and if something does not work search to see why this might happen, 9 times out of 10 you will get your answer.

As a rule with anything before i buy something i read up on it like there was no tomorrow, i read and watch every review to look for the ups and downs on the item, it's just plain silly not too.

As for the MVP it is no different to most mods, if something goes wrong another mod fix would give the same fix most of the times, so there is no need to google MVP fix.

Hmmmmm...

I think "incompetence" is a bit of a harsh thing to say here and not really in the spirit of this forum.

We've ALL made silly mistakes, myself included more than once and whilst I think the OP was a bit quick at blaming the Vendor we need to remember generally that most E-cig devices don't come with any instructions.

So let's go easy on users AND Vendors and just get along with helping each other out and encouraging people, 99% just want to find a good vape and be rid of the stinkies.

[Greg]

That's a good point about the cheapness of the clones, but even so it's not hard to do some research. All you need to know is to be found in the pages of this very forum

I was speaking in general but as you mentioned the MVP it's been confirmed by Ash the MVP was not at fault. Im pretty sure the fault was with the users atty and hence my point.

Very true - all you need to do is search " Super-Shiny guide" - the answer will be in there somewhere.

DiscoDes I certainly never meant any offence with incompetence and I've performed one of two stupid errors myself due to my own incompetence. But I don't blame others as I see so many people having great success with the same items. I ask those with more experience and put things right. I certainly never meant to come across as not in the spirit of the forum and if I did then I apologise.
It's all down to walking before you can run and as you stay instructions are sparse, all the more reason to research before you buy rather than doing so on a whim.

I have been vaping for 2 & a half days using an EVOD Starter Pack from myepack & Ash has been remarkably helpful.

Before buying, I also did a lot of searching, checking reviews of just about everything & asked a lot of advice in here.

When I put my first ever liquid in the ecig, I got nothing. It did not work. It had no taste. It was dead.

I thought "oh great - I get a faulty one on my first ever day" ....

BUT BUT BUT

I then decided to press the "battery on" button on it .....

BINGO! No point in typing in a forum "it's crap it doesn't work it's useless" before trying everything to sort it out!

[caleb]

Had a problem with one of their protanks some time ago,but i had NO problems sorting it out.
Ash send replacement the same day i contacted him

[scimitar]

i had a problem with my mvp it would not charge sent it back to myepack and received a replacement back after they found it was faulty

[lisburnvapes]

I seem to remember another angry post not that long ago, it also was sorted out by the vendor, people seem very quick to post negative feedback whilst annoyed, good tip is to chill out a bit , lol, this poster spent £40 on cigarettes to dissapear in a cloud of smoke but was ready to kill dead things over a quality piece of kit from a respected vendor which probably cost less than the ciggies !
Worlds going mad ! Lol
