Just received my 2 packs.
Are they supposed to have any branding on the packaging?
They came in a black box with 'Atomized cartridge' in white letters on the box and a white sticker on the side '1.9-2.0 stainless'. The 5 cartos inside were in a blister pack with no markings.

Yes, both the kits come with the same small tube that accommodates 18350, 18500 and 18650. Only the full kit contains an additional longer tube, usage of which is optional. The longer tube isn't like the Vamo tube section to extend the device; you need to take off the smaller tube and use the long one instead. I don't believe there is any redesign to the device or tube. I think i've explained that properly!!! The long tube is in there for asthetics then?  Simple answer....yes :)but I also find the SVD is nicer to hold with the longer tube. It wouldn't have mattered too much to me if I had bought the smaller kit but I wanted some iclear30s and spare heads anyway and the price difference wasn't much if I were to buy those separately. My phone is playing up at the moment but when I get a chance, I'll take a couple of pictures in 18650 mode so you can see the difference. |

The cheapest RM shipping including adequate insurance and signature confirmation is RM Airsure packets and is £9.90. Tell them that this is the cheapest option that covers you against loss. As mentioned, they will want you to send them confirmation. Just scan the RM receipt, send the photo in the ticket and they will refund the postage. They will then refund/replace your MVP once they have it in their possession.
I sent something back to them a couple of weeks ago and they said they hadn't received it until I wrote to them telling them that I had delivery confirmation. No problems after that.

The full SVD kit has an extra tube which is longer than the smaller telescopic tube. Using the longer tube is for 18650 batteries only (or 18350s stacked if you want) but the shorter tube will accommodate all batteries.
In 18650 mode, I think it looks a bit better using the long tube but that's just my opinion and it's subective. I find it looks better balanced and it's nicer to hold. As Perpetua mentioned, the full kit also comes with two iclear30s and 3 spare heads.
(edit - I don't have any 18500s so not sure if the long tube will be ok with them)

Has anyone seen any good videos on how to rebuild these, single or, better still dual coil?
I can build single coils but I think they can be made better than my effort. I'm looking for a guide as the terminals are very close to each other and the guides I can find won't work with this.

I've noticed that the iclear30s that I got with the SVD kit are different to the boxed one I got from Zainy. Innokin are now making the bottom of the base with 2 grooves similar to that of the Protank which is nice. The boxed iclear30 base that I bought several weeks ago was completely flat.
Innokin seem to be very good at listening to consumers and implementing changes. They do however come out with some very 'unique' products like the 134!

lemental thanks for the reassurance, usually always split my orders but obviously with the excitement of ordering my first mod got distracted somewhat As it's already shipped, there's no point in stressing yourself now. I picked up an SVD kit from the sorting office the other day which was $62 and had no problems. |

 , i can't believe i forgot to split my order! heres hoping a) i don't get stung too much for customs tax/duty b) RM don't refuse to deliver as i've got batteries in with the Vamo. It was shipped yesterday so at least a week of fretting like a sick puppy  I wouldn't worry. Firstly as the packages are marked at a low value, you'll be very unlucky to get any customs charges. Secondly, your batteries should come inside a plastic case and AFAIK there's no problem with that. |

I wonder what goes on in that little "privacy" room in the pick up chemists..  Great thinking! Maybe I should ask for a private consultation or rather a consultation on my privates  |

My friendly pharmacy is miles away but oh so nice....a lot easier to get hold of than GP... Only went there cos at one time they had a good looking pharmacist LOL  there's a good looking one at my friendly pharmacy too, he's also very helpful indeed There's a few nice looking ladies at my local chemist. It's called Pickup pharmacy but so far I've not had much luck picking up anything apart from prescription medicine |
