Is that the one that has a juice cup for a tank?, top fill and a coil head the fits into the top cap and so you can just pour juice into the tank, Twisted did a review of it a week ago.. novel idea... he was impressed with it to as i recall, whats your thoughts?
Supposedly 'unleakable' too!
Don't put my dripper down these day's but when out and about I want something convenient!
Joyetech eVic VTC Mini 75W and a Original OBS Crius (Good choice?) £36 in total absolute bargain when i'm used to buying dripper clones for close to £20 as an impulse convenience buy! :/ as mentioned in the thread thinking of ordering from GearBest.com I take it "Original is Authentic or is it shady sales technique?" Was also thinking of ordering 18650's or am I asking for trouble on a site which appears like Fast tech or something
Edit: Tempted by the Joyetech Cuboid perhaps allowing me more headroom for low ohm builds and peace of mind but thinking of sticking with the VTC mini as after all the appeal is smaller form factor than my IPV3 LI.

FT lists genuine stuff as Authentic.
GB lists genuine stuff as Original.
I've ordered countless batteries from FT and they've been the real deal, you'll just be waiting 2 weeks or so for them to arrive.
Here's my last battery order from FT - 4x Sony VTC5's
VTC Mini & Crius is what my daily carry is now. I haven't put that tank down since I got it! Wonderful flavour and filling is a breeze.

Ah great thanks for clearing that up!
Yup I have only heard good things about the Crius! Tempted by a 3ML Steam Crave Arm due to being smaller than the Crius but it doesn't seem that it's worth the price tag!
Crius is out of stock EU but say's China Stock guess I need to order and forget I have ordered it and be pleasantly surprised in a couple of weeks

The Crius is in stock on FT if you don't mind ordering from two places? - https://www.fasttech.com/products/0...entic-obs-crius-rta-rebuildable-tank-atomizer
Choose 'Registered Airmail via China Post' and you'll have it in around 7 days, quickest I've had was 5 days!
If its the V1 it will have a two post two (small) hole deck with poorly sized 510 drip tip (its slightly smaller then standard 510).
If its the V2 it will have a two post two (large) hole deck and a standard 510 drip tip.
If its the V3 it will have the two post four (velocity style) hole deck and standard 510 drip tip.
I would think you'll get a V3 as the V2's weren't on shelves all that long and the V1 wasn't overly popular, worst case, if you do get a V1 or V2, you can buy the V3 decks for like £7 from myepack
Anyone know if any Kennedy24 clones exist? Searching is a mine field.
Get the Crius from FT, they sell the V3 for sure as ive bought 2 from there, and select registered airmail china 6-14 days, as mentioned above, typically i get my stuff in 7 days as long as it shows in stock...
AS for VTC Mini or Cuboid... if you want more than 50w and more battery life then the Cuboid wins, but Dont believe the 200w... not a chance on dual 18650.. even at the original stated 150w its pushing it..
If you want small and typically vape at 50w or less then the VTC Mini should be good, ive been through 2 2500mAh 18650's in mine today running in TC with dual SS coils at sub .3ohms.. been through 12ml of juice in my Squonker...
As for batteries, i would Never buy from china, dont care what anyone says, order from Torchy in the UK on ebay, you will get them Much faster and Know they really are genuine.

Fasttech list the Kennedy 24... various colours.. £7.93
Thank you for taking the time to look! Nope placed an order with Fasttech for the tank and Gearbest for the VTC mini.

Hopefully V3 then! As above I went with the link Gee provided me.
Yup decided not to bother with any 18650's I'm fine for the time being just thought if i was ordering in the first place I might aswell but in future ill check Torchy out on eBay thanks.
Nope high watts don't bother me as I have my Dual 18650 for that! Just a small form factor tank setup!

Edit: I followed the advise and choose China shipping, I remember how long my Vamo took to arrive back in 2013 with photo's in my order history of SingaPOOR shipping

Got myself an Indestructible RDA about a week ago, and a Noisy Cricket not long after, between these and the Reuleaux I'm shaping up to be quite the JayBo fanboy!
Absolutely love the combo of these two, tiny, powerful, durable, and a real simple, flavourful build. Literally just two 18650's in series and a button. Note to anyone considering one: make sure you understand battery safety. Series means 8.4V at full charge, which means 0.5 ohms delivers 16.8A and 141W. You need good batteries, and loooong coils to get enough resistance and the mass to handle it.
edit: Oh and the whole setup cost under £40 including batteries!
edit2: Can also vouch for the Crius and Crown. I recommend the Crown to people looking for a tank with pre-made coils, two of my mates have now got one and they love 'em! My mum just got into coil building, she had a VTC Mini and a Lemo 2, she just got another VTC Mini and a Crius, both in white, looks very snazzy and the flavour is spot on, probably slightly better than my Aromamizer with equal builds at equal power, although the Aromamizer will take a bit more due to there being a little more space to build.

Torchy tests his stock to ensure they are not re wraps, FT have been known to re wrap!
End of the day, each to their own, but i dont want a potential vent in my face due to a bad cell and dont want it to happen to anyone else, just being safe and besides, Torchy will get them to you Next day (not inc weekends)... not in 2 weeks lol

Yep, Torchy is my go-to for batteries now. I mosied on over to UKVapers and joined up a few weeks ago. Ordered one of his 3x 18650 cases for my reuleaux, arrived next day, then 2 pairs of 30Q's, arrived next day, and they come in their own cases which is super handy. Just recieved another 5 pairs (not all for me
), again next day, and they're all top notch cells. It's worth it for peace of mind, quick delivery, and cases! Plus, hush hush, there are discounts and deals if you buy direct from him - Status
