http://www.discountvapers.com/k100-mechanical-full-kit-blue/ I received my K100 in the mail today (3-20) after placing the order on 3-18. Kudos to www.discountvapers.com for the fast shipping. OK, here's the boring stuff first as stated on discount vapers description. The kit costs $62 on the site and it was just over $66 shipped. New Unique styled Telescopic mod from KAMRY. The K100 will accept 18350, 18500 and 18650 unprotected batteries. This is a bottom button mechanical design with the ability to screw out and lock that bottom button. The K100comes with an upper protective tube that also completes its sylish unusual look. Nice feel and heft to this mod with a thicker bottom button for easy use. 9 holes throughout the mod for venting saftey Please note:The upper tube is too tall to be used as a drip shield unless you are using adapters You Get: 1 K100 Mechanical Mod 2 510 cartomizers 1 Atomizer cover 1 Kasbah-styledrip tip 1 18650/18350 battery chargerOutput: 3.7v/450ma Input:110-220v EOCv 4.2v +-1% 1 18350900mahICR 3.7vdry battery 1 18650 2000mahICR 3.7vdry battery 1 Manual 1 eGo case package Dimensions: 18350: 99mm / 3.9 inches tall 18500: 113mm / 4.4 inches tall 18650: 129mm / 5.0 inches tall Base unit without upper tube attached is 64mm / 2.5 inches. Width: 25.5mm/ 1 inch The dimensions above are without the 510 drip tip attached. Now for my first day of use impressions. My first impression upon opening the case was "WOW!! This thing looks awesome!!" Then I picked it up and noticed that it has some weight to it. Iunscrewedeverything and put it back together to get a feel for it andcheck it out. I wasexpecting to find the threading to be rough and the metal thin.... Not the case... To my surprise the threading is very smooth and has virtually no grinding noise and the tube is relatively thick also, the button has a good feel to it offering enough resistance to stand it up without firing but loose enough for pinky hits. I loaded up the included 18350 and filled one of the cartos with an 80/20 12mg, clear colored Apple Ring juice. The initial vape was excellent, good throat hit and flavor, clouds of vapor. But, after a few hits I got a NASTY taste fomr the carto. At first I thought I didn't fill it enough, I checked it and it was saturated. I took another it and got the same thing. It was the nasty "turkey bacon" flavor Pbusardo described in his Boge Gate videos. So, I went to dripping with a 2.9 ohm atty and a 510/510 adapter. I intentionally over dripped and the carto tube/ drip shield held all the juice in. I had to do some running around today so I took it on the road. I put on a Vivi Nova tossed it in my cup holder and off we went. It was very comfortable and the bottom button didn't have me turning and feeling to fire it. The finish, so far, is unmarred with no nicks or scratches. After I got home I decided to use my AGA-T+ with a 1.7 ohm coil and it performs flawlessly. And now The Good, The Bad and The Ugly THE GOOD -Good build quality.. Nice heavy feel with a solid button, deep drip well in case you over drip, very smooth threading, six vent holes on the battery tube (3 top and 3 bottom) and 3 air holes at the top of the drip shield -It's a screw type telescoping mod giving you multiple battery options or a KICK option with no parts to remove or add when you change battery sizes -Works with almost everything (The Kanger MT3 is to wide to work without and adapter) -Cost.. The kit cost $66 shipped and includes everything a noob or veteran vaper needs to get it running right out of the box. (Well, except juice) THE BAD (just nitpicking) -The cartos give a terrible taste -Kanger MT3's don't fit -Hmmm.. that's about it for now THE UGLY (aesthetics) -It's a beautiful looking mod -The grooves look really nice and serve a function by allowing some gripping surface -Comes in three colors, Champagne (more like a gunmetal), Blue (=AWESOME!) and Gold (BLING!) all go well with the polished steel look. This is just my first day impressions of the K100 so I'm going to give it 4/5 stars and 1.5 thumbs up. I'm leaving room to increase or decrease my rating depending on the near future performance, it has nothing to do with THE BAD.

LOL, I keep a bag of various sized ones in my storage container and a few in my to go bag. I also always have some napkins on hand.

I'll be posting my first day impressions later under the review thread. I had to get the blue though, there were only 9 of this color left :-)

I just received this today. $66 for the kit (device, 18650 and 18350 batteries, charger, 2 1.9 ohm cartos, and a case).

I like the idea of it but if it's not a good price I won't get one. Ultimately it's a basic ecig. No extra stuff (VV/VW, resistance or battery checker, etc...) so I can't see dropping more than $25-$30 on it.

Vapor Zeus

I like the idea. A video chat option would be cool too.

I love CE4's but here's an oddball for you. I have one... just one, that won't work on my Vamo but it works on everything else though. A puzzlement... no? LOL

Vaping is considered a healthier alternative to smoking. I enjoyed smoking and I now enjoy vaping. I switched for my wife not for my health. Feeling better was an added bonus and makes me happier that I made the change. I know I have a physical and psychological addiction to nicotine and this curbs that in a healthier way. Nicotine still had adverse effects on our bodies but they don't seem to be quite as damaging when compared to cigarettes however, we won't really know of amy long term effects for years until ling term studies are completed.

I know how you feel. I went nuts after I decided to upgrade from my 510 stick. Fortunately I'm a huge nerd and researched... and researched... and researched.. Finally I learned more than enough get me through the next couple years. LOL

Use a thick rubber band or a soft rubber backed coaster. That's what I do >_>

Taste is absolutely subjective. Some people love Dekang while I personally don't. I love vanilla and other dessert flavors while others prefer fruity. Whatever keeps you from smoking is the best as others have stated.

A bolt with extension ring. It's about $30-$35 with ring do if you don't like it your not out a lot of $$$.

Return it, tell them it's not working for you. Most places offer 30 days if they don't do it contact the manufacturer.

To bad I can't find Dekang Gold anywhere. That was the only Dekang I enjoyed. I think like everyone I started with Dekang and thought it was OK... and then I discovered flavor. LOL

I love them but I get a little leaking out of the bottom once in a while. Usually when I leave them sit for a few days with some juice in them. Other than that it's not to bad.

The build quality was actually pretty good on the cheaper one but the wick hole was to far... hell this one is a touch to far as well. I jinxed myself too... right after my post I started with some minor issues LOL I just have to wait for my next day off to rebuild it.

OMG!!! I FINALLY GET IT!!! My first go at an RBA TANK was a Genesis clone and I couldn't get away from hot spots and that weird not quite burning but don't know why it tastes funny flavor. I decided to spend a couple more bucks and and get a well known and much reviewed RBA TANK.... the AGA-T+. I set about making my first wick from scratch and then I wrapped it with a piece of scrap wire to make sure it wasn't shorting before I put on a good wick. Well, it worked.. even with the "scrap" wire. I got a 1.3 ohm coil and it is wicking great and tastes awesome. I'm using a 65/35 dark juice, vaping at 8W and now I finally get it. I'm not sure if it was the first tank or the premade wicks I bought but I did it myself and it's awesome!

Yes it's at a 45° angle, barely off the bottom, using a Vamo. LOL I hope I covered it. :-)

30 gauge kanthal wire. I rerolled the wick, I'm not sure what size the mesh is, I bought them prerolled/ oxidized.

Still tastes burnt :-/ I guess I'll see how it goes after a tank full. Seems to be wicking slow.

I thought this post was dead

5 wraps @ 1.6 ohms.

If it were all stainless I would consider. I'm not a fan of the brass. Although it foes look sharp.
