Sweatervest13 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Hi All, I have been thinking about picking up a bigger mod for home use. I was looking at something entry level, like the iTaste MVP V2.0. I read a couple of reviews and it seems pretty good for the price. Is there any strong recommendations against this particular unit?? Also, any good or bad reviews on the madvapes juices?? Thanks SV
Sweatervest13 Posted October 3, 2013 Author Posted October 3, 2013 Bump. Any opinions either way out there on the iTaste MVP V2.0???
Jeffb Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I had the MVP V1 and I liked it overall. The only draw back for me was the button. It flush with the case and you have to be very intentional when pushing it. Other than that its a good device.
joe2003 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I'd recommend watching PBusardo's youtube review of the V2 before buying. I wanted this unit but the numbers just weren't good enough. I haven't tried any juice from madvapes in about 2 yrs. so no help there.
Sweatervest13 Posted October 3, 2013 Author Posted October 3, 2013 Thanks for the replies guys!!! It helps. I did see the PBusardo's video and it seemed like it was packed full of features, but he did not like the pressure needed to engage the fire button. It sounds like they did correct the issue with the fire button being flush and hard to find, but over corrected how much weight is needed to get it to fire. LOL. I like the idea of it being VV & VW and I like that it can tell me the resistance of the coil on the tanks. Found it on sale for under $60.00 with an Iclear30 tank. From what I am finding out so far is that you can't have too many mods, so I think that I am going to treat myself and get me a little present. For the juice. I really like their prices (that may be an indicator of poor quality), and I need to build up some stock. Thanks again!! SV
BirdDog Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I have the Itaste V3, yes the box is marked V3. I bought it last week from a local guy. I just wandered in to the shop to see what they had. The price was pretty decent so I picked one up. They had just got them in and were playing around with them. I actually really like the unit. I haven't played around with the VW part and I find the puff counter a bit humorous. My only complaint really is the button. A bit recessed for my taste, but now that I am used to it, it is nice. More comfortable than the round ego buttons.
Rcam1977 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I just got my MVP 2.0 yesterday and like it a lot , the button is stiff but I don't see that as a bad thing, I would recommend it, if fond mind spending a few more dollars you might look into the newer version the itaste VTR though
Bebop Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I was disappointed with madvapes juice. There's better IMO
Sweatervest13 Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 Thanks guys. Appreciate the comments. I pulled the trigger and ordered one. With a few different juices. I have high hopes for the MVP and not so much for the juice (bebop. I figured. The price was too good. Again, okay with building up stock). But we will see. I might be surprised. What are some favorite vendors for the juice??SV
spydre Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Better Vapes is one of my favorites right now, except for the juices I buy locally, and the one juice that I buy from Chi-Town Vapers.
Tam Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Many on this forum like Vapedudes.com, Sweet-vapes.com, EC Blends, Vapor Talk juice from our own marketplace and Fuzion. My personal favorites are EC Blends and Vapedudes.
Sweatervest13 Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 Vapedudes. Well that's more like it. Gotta sell myself on being okay on spending a bit of money to find what works for me and something I enjoy. I don't see that being a problem. The fish tank might not get anything new for a while. They'll be fine. I think that I will cool my jets for a hot minute on purchases. I think I am still ahead vs analogs & dip. I am not missing that habit (the dip) at all. But it suited a need (don't like to skink at work). Finding my pallet with vaping is tough. Some thing's I think I would like. I don't. Some things I know I really don't care for. I dig. Don't get me wrong, most of the juice is completely tolerable and will get used in time (except that Halo cafe Mocha).
Tam Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 That's what I love about EC Blends. I can get 5 ml bottles of juice for $2.99 each so I can try all kinds of different flavors to find something I like and order a bigger bottle. Like you, the flavors I thought I'd like/love -- just don't taste like what I think they should. I've found a couple that surprised me and they've become all day vapes for me.
Bebop Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Good success with vapedudes The quest for good juice is the heart of vaping. Give me a good juice and I'll vape it in a rusty spoon over a campfire. I rate my juice vendors buy the percentage of favorable juices I have gotten from them. I have HATED some juices from my favorite vendors. The best source of juice is a vape bar. Fortunately for me I can go down, sit at the bar and try 20 flavors and walk away with 50ml of supreme (for me) juice. On line, its hit or miss. Best success for me: Vapedudes Fuzion Gourmet Vapes Note: my own tastes have changed nearly monthly since I started. I cannot vape some juices I loved 4 months ago. 4months ago I was vaping 80/20 24mg. That is awful to me today. Today I vape 50/50 12mg (6mg when dripping) and its a BIG difference. Its part of the deal. Might as well enjoy the wins and shrug the losses. It's a ride! rcoe and Tam 2
Sweatervest13 Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 Tam. I am mad at you. I just checked out EC Blends. I now have to restrain myself from ordering like 15 little bottles. I probably can't. I'm telling my wife it's all your fault. You're busted. SV

After I find my happy place I am sure I will end up ahead. And I am in a good spot as far as my reef tank goes, kinda in a grow out phase. So that frees up a ton of funds short term. Hey I treated myself and spent money I would have spent anyways and will spend more guaranteed. That's one of the things I liked about analogs. You got to unwrap something brand new just for you everyday. Plus I am a superfan of learning about new things. And I am a bit of a tinkerer( not to mention a fan of forums) So the DIY aspect appeals to me. I am not there yet but it's early. SV
Tam Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 You gotta watch out for Tam, I'm telling you! Shhhh! He didn't know that, Bebop. Let me have some fun for awhile longer... Sweatervest13 1
Bebop Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Haha..he's hooked . There's no hope. Tam and Sweatervest13 2
Aquatroy Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Careful SV she will empty your bank account!! Your hooked, enjoy your new addiction....vape gear!! Sweatervest13 and Tam 2
Sweatervest13 Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 Lulz... Yup, I'm hooked. But the way I see it, its an investment in my health and well being. Plus, if you are going to do something... Do it well, or not at all.
Tam Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Careful SV she will empty your bank account!! I think it's in the "How to be a Woman" manual...
