what new device for me

[Sandra (aka Chillax)]

I think I am leaning towards the Super T, it is so well made, I think it will last me ages, I tend to be clumsy and think the beautiful Provari would get battering off of me, I want to take it everywhere and fear I would be to protective of a Provari to do that.

If I felt the need, would my Tornado Booster fit on the Super T?

[Perpetua]

I wouldn't be sure Chillax, but I'd suspect it wouldn't . . . but The Kick from Evolve is in the pipline . . . a VV unit that can be used with any 18650 device.

Super T's are very expensive, Chill...the pic Scylla just posted is of a slightly older style (but still current) that is on UKV at the moment for £99 2nd hand...think the new ones are closer to £200, could you go that much?

Edit...no, it's not, its a pic of Prof's supersix....but there is a precise on UKV...ocht well...i was up half the night, so very tired...thats my excuse n im sticking to it

Would go to £200 if it were going to last and be a real nice vape that I looked forward to and had pleasure in using. Over time it would defo pay for itself, especially if it continues to not make me want to look for a rollie. Tbh I would prefer to pay for the right one now than go through a few and still not be satisfied.

My eyes are wandering around the Super T, GGTS and Provari, the GGTS is a smart looking thing, but is it a bit faffy? The Provari is awsome but is it to delicate for a heavy handed mucky person like me? The Super T is lovely but is it to expensive for what you get?

Lol not easy picking something is it

i have to say i still prefer the Precise over the Precise+
the finish is amazing !!! Super T USA wish they still did the brass caps

[ragjoy]

i like the new range due to the gold and Rhodium connections, not that i know what im talking about.
i think id prefer the 18350 due to size but dont really know what batt life you get from that size.
i also dont know what the juice well is all about.

raggy........

the new one will prob perform better but the old one looks so sexy.... Lisa showed me hers at vapefest (ooh er mrs!) and its faultless ...you cant see a lathe mark on it ...if they still did the brass taps i would defo but one just to place in a glass cabinet, they are that sexy

with the 18350 batteries they range from 700mAh to 1200mAh which has gotta be good enough for a whole day even for a heavy vaper i would have thought.

[ragjoy]

ive just been looking here www.supertmanufacturing.com/id86.html
and im wondering why they are asking what battery you will be using mostly.
too see what mean click the link add the 18650 too cart and it asks flat or slant top cap and then what batt you will mainly use.
i wonder if the initial setup will be different depending on what batt you select, if so this could be problematic for future secondhand devices couldnt it.

Not nearly enough - I run around 3500mA a day (and not based on what the battery says, either) to get through around 10mls a day - I'm expecting this to change with the Kick (which I'm now using and testing and it's well worth it so far). A normal, non-extending 18650 device will require you to step down to an 18500, whereas the GGTS will handle the Kick with an 18650 in it.

FWIW, I don't find the GGTS (without a UFS) at all fiddly - quite the opposite - and with the UFS in place, it's pretty faff-free once you get the hang of the juice and air flow controls, and settle on an atomiser you like. OK, so not faff free to get going, but pretty damned easy once you've learned. And with a Kick, it doesn't matter which resistance of atomiser you out in it.

i think the 2600 is about a 1-2mm longer than the 1600 so i guess they will pre adjust it for you

10ml/day puts you in Extreme Vaper Class doesnt it Dave ??? LOL

My 18350's last me most of a day Raggy, they're the 800mah IMR ones Tim at Moju sells...

am remembering when i bought my Provari, they had just started selling higher capacity 18560 batts, they send you an O ring if you order them, so Gordy's right, they're slightly longer...

do you think this is a manual adjustment or a fixed one.
if fixed the could be an issue later.
im getting a bit ahead of myself here but just wondering really, fixed would seem a bit daft long term.


thanks hifi for some informative info there.
raggy...

I'm using 1200mah (probably nearer 100mah allowing for Chinese exageration) Ultrafire batteries in my Precise Plus 18350 - they fit fine - you get extra rubber O-rings in the pack which allows the variation in length between different 18350 batteries to be handled.

I take a different view from most over "run-time" I'd sooner have the smaller device and carry one small extra battery "just in case" than have the 18650 version which is bigger and heavier. I get through the working day nine times out of ten on one 18350 - now and then I dont - but I have a spare battery. 18350 version plus spare battery is lighter than the 18650 vesrion on its own (and a fair bit smaller).
