Just saw it, looks really good and reasonable size for 26650, but should have done what Hana did for the V3 and not extended the battery cover to the top to stop liquid leaks getting into the body and put the USB on the side. Love that magnetic door is standard, but not convinced by the quality of Cloupor electronics.

I'm holding out for the T8 personally but have been looking at getting into the 26650 mods so this could be perfect chance.
Have seen the T6 being sold as a preorder for £99.99 on ebay. On ukecig I think they have it on preorder for the same, nearly £100 so under £50 is absolutely outstanding value.

Given that it's going to take 7 hours plus to charge via USB, I'd remove the cell and replace it every time anyway. The only time I'd be using the USB is when the firmware needs updating and given the T5 fiasco I'd be in no hurry to do that.

You see I was under the impression that the T6 & T8 only had the USB port to upgrade firmware when needed, hence why the put the magnetic backing on to make changing batts a piece of piss....

I know this would take hours to charge but it wouldn't hurt to be able to set it on a desk for an hour or 2 and top it up.

m.ebay.co.uk/itm/181429720505?nav=SEARCHThese from Ecolux would be fantastic, rated to 30A which is more than enough and amazing mah rating. I'm using an 18650 keeppower I just got this week from Ecolux and it's a fantastic battery..

It says Micro-USB charging port in the description, unless FT is wrong, they must have expected it to be used for charging.
This is a common design flaw. They all need to take a day off, relax at home, and look at 6 sided devices with cords hanging out all around them. Maybe they can find inspiration in their toasters.

If I'm not mistaken the IPV also has the same design flaw... USB on the bottom, that's the reason I came across "Vape 3D" as he made a stand for them which allowed them to be plugged in and docked.
