1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.

    Just picked this up from Jimmy at Ztar Platinum. I have been using the Joyetech Evic Supreme happily for the last 3+ months as my main PV. But sometimes it can be a bit unwieldy. Light saber like, even with a nautilus mini, let alone a full sized kayfun. I had been eyeing the IPV2 as my next PV because I was not impressed with the Cloupor Hana clones. This IPV2 is supposed to be the 2nd run with a better fitting backplate. After spending the better part of the day with it, I am impressed. The yihi sx330 chip is not as accurate as whatever is in my Evic s, but the the handfeel and pocketability are so much better than my Evic S, better than any box mod I've handled besides a Vapor Shark. My setup is Wide bore drip tip on a Nautilus Mini 1.6ohm BVC on the IPV2. I can't tell you how aesthetically pleasing it looks. I won't be retiring my Evic S, but I will definitely be putting the IPV2 through its paces. Any other iPV2 owners feel free to chime in.

    Thanks for that. I've been looking at the IPV2 the last couple of days. Keep us updated. Can I ask how much you paid for it?

    I can confirm the iPV2 to be the updated version with better hex screws for the back panel, better battery compartment, and a floating 510 pin connector. More pics to come.

    Awesome buy Methos I picked one up this week too. First tried it from Tibo and fell in love with it.
    Also bout an X-pure RDA from Smok which I'm in love with.

    I think I paid 2,800bt for the IPV V2 and I'm very happy with the purchase.

    FYI I have the IPV 2S coming my way which is the third iteration. I will let you know how it goes on arrival. The 2s is a 60 Watt mod with firmware upgrades to 75 watt and a few other cosmetic modifications as well as the later chipset.

    (UPDATE) After 3 days of trying the same juice in the same clearo on both devices, I would say form factor aside, I prefer the evic supreme. Not to say that the ipv2 is not an excellent vape, but my impression is the power discharge is more accurate on the evic s, the draw is a bit smoother, and it is easier to dial in because the voltage reader is more accurate(displays to 2 decimals). I will continue to use both, but if I had to pick one to keep it would prolly be the evic S, because I rarely use 30 watts, let alone 50.
