    I have the 100 watt IPV 4 and I have been compleatly impressed with it. First off it has taken some falls and tumbles and still works like a champ. 
    Also I like the fact you can update your firmware with this mod. I did and gained a extra 20 watts so essentially it's the same as the 4s. 
    Been dripping and using it as my daily power horse for my sub ohm tanks. The mod never gets tired and screams for more. Good choice for a buy you will love it.

    My only experience is with the IPV minis but those are solid workhorses. I'd venture to guess this one shouldn't be much different in dependability.

    I just got an IPV4s, arrived in the mail Friday. I paired it with an ego one Mega. Running the stock nickel coil, loving the temp control. Solid mod so far, and after actually reading the papers in the box with it the menu is straight forward.

    I understand being too lazy to build coils.  I enjoy it, but sometimes just don't feel like it, and I get very frustrated when they don't work like I want them to.
    From what I read about the mod, it seems to be pretty good, but I think to really enjoy it's potential, you might have to break down and start building.  I would suggest getting a coil building ohm meter, some 28 gauge Ni200 wire and a good RDA. (I use a Velocity clone and love it).  It will work great with the tanks you mentioned, even better if you get the temp control coils.  It is worth the extra effort in my opinion.
    I have a couple of Pioneer4U mods, the ipv mini 2, and the ipv3 (the old one) and have never had a minutes trouble with them.

    Tom74 got a reaction from kfolse107 in Tried my first (last) analog after 6 months being smoke free   
    I still have a lot of friends who have no desire to quit smoking and today I was with one of them.
    I have to say, the smell of cigarettes makes me nauseated after 6 months of having been smoke free but after a few beers I asked my friend if I could have one of his cigarettes. I held onto it till I got home. I kept asking myself, do you really want to put this stupid thing in your mouth, smell like the bowling alley bar and hate everything about yourself again?

    Well I guess I was pretty buzzed because once I got home I walked outside (no way do I ever want my house to smell like cigarette trash again) went around the corner (so none of my neighbors could see me) and lit it up....

    On the first drag I immediately remembered the familiar taste of what tobacco smoke tastes like on the pallet... SH!T!

    The second drag had my conscious asking me why are you doing this!!!?

    And 1/2 way through the third drag the cigarette was under my shoe while I squashed it out!

    Tobacco is NASTY! Never EVER again will it put one of those stupid coffin nails in my mouth!

    So proud to be smoke free!

    Yesterday I got a very nice package from Fadora Vapor! Very nice packaging, presentation and especially the glass bottles.

    I received a nice selection to try. I gave my buddy the apple cider and he cleaned out and reworked his kayfun. A very nice flavor. Mellow, smooth yet complex and flavorful. He likes it and I do too. It reminds me of a hot cider smell you get in the winter.

    I built a new coil just for the watermelon.

    I read that if you give a little space between your wraps it gives more surface area for the juice to cover on the coil. I gave it a try.

    Made a medium wick since this juice seems thin like it would wick well but at 1.0 ohm it will need to wick pretty well.

    I like the watermelon but just got to vaping it so I will give longer term impressions in the other section. I was surprised by the watermelon. I was expecting jolly rancher but its more of a natural watermelon flavor.

    It tastes like a mix between real watermelon but candy-ish if that makes sense.

    Thanks Compenstine!

    Oh, and very happy this fruity watermelon held up to the 1ohm coil. Running at 17.6watts on a fresh 18650.

    Using my nemesis clone with igo W right now. About .53 dual coil and I only use sony vtc 5. Pretty good setup. Like an old chevy pickup truck. When I really want to get down though I pull out the v3tronix flip mod and brass monkee rda. It's the ferrari in the garage. They all drive you around the block, just about performance and looks beyond that.

    I enjoy pure VG flavor as well as PG blends, but some people have a hard time with PG. My wife is one. Johnson Creek makes a pure VG line that tastes great and produces nice clouds even if you're not sub ohming (I don't).

    That would be my intention. I had always wondered if they could recreate the scent and taste of the real thing. I never thought it was possible. This being the first time I have even seen it attempted, I would only try. I plan to give them a shot for a few other flavors, but that would be the tiny little 5 ml in my order

    Ever since I got this Nemesis mechanical mod and the nimbus RDA and went to sub ohms, i've pretty much shelved all of my regulated mod devices.

    I wish I would have know about mechanical mods from the get go. I could have saved myself a couple a 100 bucks.

    Regulated mods dont have half the balls as mechanical mods!

    I ordered a bunch of juice from them. Most of the flavors were really good. Loved the gummy candy, calipso coconut and raspberry with ice hit. You can't beat the prices and the customer service was great. They sent a full size free sample with my order and when I emailed them about a custom flavor they took care of me right away. I'm really happy with them and will order some big bottles soon.

    Yes it is always a good Idea when available to boost the flavor with a higher VG juice. Some times extra steeping time will do the trick as well giving time for the flavoring to flavor the VG.

    I just got the VTC5's in the mail today... There the real deal. I was using efest 2000 mAh 3.7's before.

    I threw the VTC5's on the soda charger, took em like 3 1/2 hours to charge. When I popped one in to my nemesis mechanical mod and screwed on my nimbus RDA dual coil build (.5 ohm soaker) and added 70VG/30PG to my RDA I got consistent FAT TASTY CLOUDS!!! Haven't experienced a drop in battery performance for about an hour and a half now. WHAT A DIFFERENCE!

    I couldn't believe how fast vaping turned me off of cigarettes completely once I got the right juice and nic content. I didn't set a goal of quitting analogs completely, although I was planning to eventually for my girlfriend/future wife and the kiddos.

    Once the cravings weren't so strong, cigarettes tasted so nasty and made me feel so bad, so without the strong cravings there just wasn't a lot of motivations considering the pros vs cons.

    Has it surprised anyone how strong and awful the smell is when a smoking coworker comes into your office or you smell someone around you that is a smoker? Even hours later although the "whiff" when they walk by isn't as forceful it's still an awful, strong, "wow I can't believe I ever smelled that bad" type of smell for me.
