Yea i don't think ebay even emailed it out, it was on some of the coupon sites and some news papers were advertising it, but usually the coupon sites are good for listing any new ones

I dunno how they know about it so early tho, maybe on facebook somewhere or someone leaks info to them

nice, yea i managed to make an order too, went through ok but got a message at first saying there may be a problem with the payment but after a few minutes it showed it processed fine, I noticed on ebay I think since they're not linked with paypal like before they've had a few of those issues sometimes where it says they'll email you if theres been a problem with the payment for whatever reason, most times it works but once I didn't notice that it didn't go through so had to go back and pay again after a bit lol
Apparently they did a 20% off coupon some months ago so maybe they will again, but I don't think I can manage another multi order if they bring it next week hehe

code CUKFLASH apparently works

great too see more popular mods in the eu warehouse! I noticed the white snow wolf is here too as well as the previous one

The D2 is a new mini box mod from pioneer4u which goes up to 75 watts and does temp control with both nickel and titanium. Its a small, fairly lightweight mod almost as small as the istick 20s! It takes replaceable 18650 batteries however that can be changed out fairly easily with its clamshell design that slides off the mod and uses ball bearings and slide rails to keep it in place. The body of the mod seems quite solid and made of aluminium with black paint over, there were no gaps or rattling with the battery door, however if the door happens to fit loose over time you can take off the clamshell and bend it a bit in order to get it to sit better, however it has not come noticeably loose yet after opening the battery area many times.



The buttons are quite nice to press, not extremely clicky but a slightly firmer press than some other mods. There was no button rattle too. The 510 is made of stainless steel and spring loaded, its not adjustable with a screwdriver even though you can see a screw head. Its nice and rounded in the hand too and is 78x24x40mm so an atty like the lemo thats 23mm sits quite flush with the body as well as your 22mm attys. The mod itself comes with a barrel connector for charging the device if you wanted to use the on board charging, so you would have to use the same kind of adaptor to charge and not a micro usb one. You can connect this to your pc or a wall plug though to charge. Theres also a silicon sleeve included with the mod, apparently some people have had the paintwork scratch easily so at least it comes with the sleeve although it would be better if the paint didn't have this problem.



The mod does temp control with nickel and titanium wire but its possible too with stainless steel if you experiment with the temperature and joules settings for ni/ti. On this mod you can adjust the max temp and the joules from 10-50j, 10 joules is roughly equivalent to 10 watts etc. In temp control mode you can lock the resistance by holding + and - and it'll show the resistance and lock. Best to do that when the coil is cold as well as the atty or in room temperature.



You can also lock the mod with + and power button, and unlock the same way. The mod displays the resistance and other values to 2 dp on the main screen. To enter the menu you can enter by clicking the fire button 5 times and it'll first say "SYSTEM OFF", if you then click left it'll display "System OFF" which means that option has been selected and after a few secs the display switches off meaning the mod is off. The other options when in the menu can be cycled through by pressing the fire button again after the initial 5 clicks. Theres Joule mode, Unit F, Temp, Coil Ni200, EXIT ON. At Joule Mode click left or right to go to Power Mode and vice versa, in Power mode the options to change the temp, celsius or fahrenheit and coil type disappears from the menu. You can select whether temp is displayed in celsius or fahrenheit as well as the coil type being ni or ti wire and then the temp can be changed there too. When you want to exit the menu theres a selection called "EXIT ON", click left or right to exit that to get to the main screen.

Comparison with ipv mini




Specs:
212-572f
100-300c
23x34x72mm
hold +- to set resistance
yihi chip: sx130h
7-75 watts
1x18650
10-50j in temp mode
3.6-7v in power mode
1-7v joule mode
output current 1-25a
input current 1.3a-30a
standard res 0.2-3ohms
temp mode res 0.05-3ohms
small device similar size to istick 20,30,40, shorter than the koopor mini, slightly shorter than the kbox
175g with battery, 130g without

Safety:
low voltage protection, low resistance protection, high input voltage protection, output short circuit protection, reverse battery protection, temperature overheat protection, vent holes at the bottom



Some issues:
Theres the issue with the paint that some people have experienced, but luckily the silicon cover is included. Also some might find the lack of micro usb on the mod to be an issue but luckily it can still be charged with the included cable and batteries can be easily removed with the battery cover not getting scratched when removing it. Theres also another issue some might experience when trying to vape at lower watts which is no step down so the higher ohm coils may experience less of an issue, but theres a work around which is to go into temp mode even for kanthal and then lock your resistance and you can now adjust the watts by adjusting the joules settings. This seems to then work fine but it means the lowest setting is 10 joules equivalent to 10 watts or possibly just less. Theres no noticeable pulsing however at these lower settings.

Conclusion:
The D2 is a good 75 watt mod thats tiny and has a good chip inside it with the battery being easy to remove, its quite easy to move around the menu system too and its one of the smallest single battery mods thats powerful too.

good luck VE Jason!

yea the amount of silica still being sent out with attys n blue screwdrivers is crazy lol
those lavatubes were not bad really they handled the low volts nice with no pulsing, its crazy how after that theres still devices that dont do that! they might go up to 100s of watts but low watts they sometimes dont bother with too well! The biggest thing with vamos vs the lavatube was the ohms meter and variable wattage finally
