I bought the ipv1 and I was one of the first pre orders. I ordered it July 3 from eciggity. After all that waiting I received my mod as part of the first batch on July 25. Every thing was good until 5 days later. A plume of smoke came from the battery vent holes. After doing some research I found it had a 1 year warranty. After speaking to the warranty company they said that they new there was some problems with the v1 early serial numbers. I guess the contacts are over heating and causing something on the board to short. So I told him I would ship it to him for repair. He said it will probably take 2 months to get back....sux. But I ended up acquiring a ipv v2 vr special edition carbon fiber and this thing is way better built. The screen fits in the box flush and everything is tighter. So all in all I know they have changed what they needed to. I'm not sure if the special edition is just built better or if it's just they are slowing down and putting things together better. But we always have that 1 year warranty. Which makes it worth it either way.

BREAKING NEWS: iPV3 100 watt box interview with Pioneer4You
- Thread starter BUDKISS
- Start date
i am pretty sure the special edition is the same as the normal ipv2 but with the carbon fiber insert/wrap. So far the VaporRange ones are the only blue i have seen in circulation. (There are other special edition ones with various laser etched logos n such)
Colors will eventually hit the streets but by then the ipv3 may already be here.
Word is there will be some special edition ipv3's too.
Here is what i did with mine to make it stand out a bit. (a wrap and paint removal around the edge)

EBay has shipped my 100w Monster. My poor little 30w Hanna clone is still in the O' Zone. Thank the Grand Wazu my Mechs & Vamo's still work! ( I would be infinitely more dangerous if I had nothing to vape on)

I fought it tooth & nail but alas I turned into my parents. I just hope they make "weed" legal in my state before I die.
My old man used to call that stuff Spanish cigarettes.
The iPV3 is one step closer to release. Here is a photo.

Wider to accommodate the two 18650's would make sense.
That would be the main reason why I would want to upgrade from the ipv v2 to the v3 is for the better battery life. I can't get a full day out of my vtc5 but 2 of them would for sure get me threw the whole day and having the 100 watts for when I drip would also be very nice.
I get more than a day on my vtc4 and usb charge at night when i'm asleep (so i can avoid a battery swap and those tiny screws)
If you get less than a day of battery on your vtc5 you must really be chuckin' the vapor and chain hitting it.
I think the dual battery will be a big draw. Don't know many folks that use that kind of wattage.

I drive for a living so I am vaping all day on it. At least my vaporshark has pass threw capabilitys I read in the manual for the ipv2 that its not good to use it as a pass threw so I don't.

IPV2 only last me about 6-8 hours when i'm off work and vaping all day. Keep in mind I vape .3 ohms at 45-50 watts on a Tobh Atty v2.5.

For me it's not about the wattage... I've never been above 13... But the dual batteries is a god-send!
Just started a thread about the announcement of the iPV2s... a second version of the IPV2... now waterproof (**** decided to go back and EDIT... should read "water resistant" ****) and up to 80 watts.
HHHHmmmmm.

these guys are flooding the market lol. hope they work on the form factor as well (for the iPV3s ), i never liked how they were tall and skinny. i want to see something in between the same size as a vaporshark rdna and a hana box come from them after all their kinks are worked out

Damn...these ever increasing wattages are getting nuts...I recently got the iPV1 and figured 35 watts will be plenty for me....of course it wasnt long ago I thought 15 watts was more than I'd ever need, so there is that...lol....I suppose by the time I decide I need more, 50 and even 100 watts will be old hat and incredibly cheap to be had...

I think you should make a separate thread with a copy of the email.. it wont get enough attention buried in this one.. people should know about a potential recall ASAP
OK well someone already had a video on a wire that had a nic in it I already took mine apart and its fine so I do not need to stop using it
it has a warranty anyways and if it came from P4Y then I may pay attention but not to some forum stroker.. that is my new term for morons like yourself that join the same day crying "FIRE FIRE" you really should consider working as a 911 dispatcher..
To be honest with you cause I no you are just trying to get a rise.. I could give a fuck what some company says across the pond.. Its not on their forums
no warning on their site etc... and even if they did release a warming that would be one item in X sold so it would be somewhere as a spec on a statistical graph...If you are so worried where are you on here and not packaging it up and getting on your "Bad motor Scooter" -- Monstrose and taking it back,,?? hmm
Grow up kid put your brain in gear I may be as you say across the pond but the device sold nearly world wide so think about it as it's just in the last few hours been recalled it takes time for warnings to go out ppl are sleeping in different time zones too but you being so powerful with a head full of brain cells that to me really don't seem to be doing much thought well perhaps I (MrScaryZ) will just run my mouth off because this is a new member to the forum I'll make them welcome by berating them because it's a noob member.
Well ty for introducing yourself to me you little grub I know in the feature to ignore any thing you have to say you worthless gob sh!te.
Btw any person who has the misfortune to get injured using this device I hope your paying attention to this idiot and you blame MrScaryZ for your injuries as he said it was fine to carry on using the device and not to listen to some one over the pond.

If this is the calibre of the forum members here then I can see it's not the forum I wish to bother with there are plenty of other forums that cater for vapours that don't have idiots that put down ppl trying to spread good info.
My bad I know that the vast majority of this forum members are great upstanding individuals but when a forum has an idiot like this who is so outspoken in this way in total disregard for safety and you do nothing about them well I think you should.

Understand you have not backed anything you have said up
Number two we have a huge amount of ECF people and others that like to come over here and run their mouth
Stop calling me a Kid I am not my brain cells are working fine.
IF you are correct and their is a recall I have yet to see it doing my research..
Since you are a new member you do not know anything about me or this forum..
OK now show me a recall!
Are you so dumb to think I am accountable for P4y and their product? are you mad? or just a bit behind the curve?

This isn't the only forum that the recall has showed up on. This is why I make my own box mods.
Whatever until I see it officially announced I take it as a grain of salt..
Yeah I see it on UK sites

Yes it was the same guy saying the same thing and and a old post by Budkiss.
I still see no recall. I took mine apart to check it its fine not a thing wrong..
As I said I want to see an official release

I see no mention anywhere of a recall except the notice posted by Csayce on here and on planetofthevapes forums, again posted by Csayce. A quick look at Liberty Flights website reveals no information and no listing of having ever sold the IPV3. There's no mention of it from Pioneer4You on their sites or facebook either.
I just talked to several vape shops they have heard no word... and again I took mine apart no wiring issues I have been vaping all day hard at .2 ohms nothing melting hahaha or anything

Did you read the posts over at planet of the vapes? It looks legit. I wouldn't be surprised if it is true. The way these Chinese manufactures are pumping out the products, Quality is sure to suffer. The new Sigelei has issues with the 100 watt mod too.
Dude it was the same guy that posted on here what do you no understand?
Yeah mine too I am betting its a competitor trying to get some crazy panic going or someone so Crazy that not even a Slingblading could stop them hehe
Just to clarify on my OLD reddit post. P4Y sent me a PRErelease version (test). It malfunctioned. They have since sent a replacement and it is fine and works like a charm. I know several folks at P4Y and have heard nothing about a recall. I WILL however check thoroughly.
Well asshole since you decided to jump in we nominate you to call LIberty Flights as I said before if it is one X in Z of units that they had issues about does not make it across the board issue and my unit is unaffected.. So why dont you stroke that phone and make the call.

It's always wise to really think hard about the consequences before deciding to spread an untruth around if it indeed turns out to be bogus .
I hope whoever spreads it knows full well that regardless of the real reasons of (why) you did it , if it does not turn out to be accurate, you pretty much just completely wiped out your credibility on anything you comment on in the future so this is not a game.
Now if you said i heard a rumor that there was a recall but until it's investigated further and verified i would not give it much cred that gives you a big safety cushion . Making it sound like it applies everywhere will get you in over your head real quick as you found out .

Here is what Liberty said about their recall.http://www.liberty-flights.co.uk/bl...s-official-statement-on-recalled-ipv3-models/
Waiting on a reply from P4Y with their take on this.
I applaud the effort by this vendor to keep consumers safe. I hope this is a random incident and not a manufacturing flaw.

The fact that P4Y has not responded back to the vendor is a bit concerning..
