Box opening-Dovpo Mini E-LVT

[Whiskey]

Hi guys, I'm not a reviewer, but I promised some I would let them know what I thought. So here goes.
Came packaged nicely, box was VERY heavy

Pulled it out of the plastic wrapper, has a nice feel and again not a light weight

Both ends, the bat cap and 510 screw caps are around as big as a silver dollar, not sure why they call this a mini...LOL

Bat cap has a nice smooth screw on/off feel, spring makes a tiny crinckle sound as you screw it back on, good tight connection.

Button has a nice clicky sound and works nice, like my Shark and Sigelei with the skins on.

Goes up to 9.5V -Side clicky buttons +- not a fan of placement for those but ...

You drop this one and you aren't gonna hurt it, heck I think if a car ran over it, you could pick it up and vape it..

Takes one 18650 battery (I use LG 2500 mah's)
For the money, its a great mod you can take anywhere and not worry about it, Haven't tried the waterproof test yet, but i'd vape it out in the rain anytime
It's a full size (Heavy) mod so don't let the name fool you
Its a nice mod, and hits as well as my IPV
There ya go, Enjoy the day

Yeah, thanks for the info. Doesn't look very mini next to your others.

It's a mini because it's smaller than their other E-LVT's.

Where did you score it at and what is the price tag on them....if you don't mind me asking that is.

Got it here, but I was not happy with ship time , I paid extra on postage to get it in 5-10 days , ordered on the 10th and just got it today (27th). Because I paid extra for faster time and it made no difference I won't order from this vendor again

Nice job Whiskey!

Isn't that a VW device as well?

 

[Whiskey]

Yes it shows both wattage and voltage, but looks like you can only adjust it in voltage

Huh, ok that is a nice looking mod! Keep us posted on how it holds up

What made u get the elvt over the invader mini if u don't mind me asking? I believe they're probably the same mod anyway just rebranded.

I ordered the 50w TP Invader mini the other day as a work device. I chose it over the e-lvt because it is 50w rather than 35w, it has functioning tp which the e-lvt does not have, and I once tried to get a goofy replacement part from Dovpo before and they were a hassle. Not to say Heatvape is any better but I already know how Dovpo is.

Also I am not sure if they really are the same. Bussardo had the e-lvt mini in the que and was contacted by Heatvape that that is their design and was copied by Dovpo and so the que now has the Invader rather than the e-lvt. Who knows how true any of it is but if they were somehow tied together why would they bother.

Price and curiosity

One thing that really gets me is all the people talking about getting these new water resistant (read your instruction manuals peoples they are not actually waterproof) mods as they are perfect for camping, fishing and boating. Some of these comments coming from vapes that have dropped them overboard.

Folks, while these things are really the next best thing to indestructable (I own the E-LVT myself) they are also heavy as shit and will drop like a rock if you lose it over the side of your boat!

I agree the Heatvape one is being marketed as water resistant. It shows it being submerged and then vaped but Dovpo did the same thing with the original e-lvt. I have the 15w e-lvt but it goes unused because of the low power which is why I ordered the Heatvape version so that I can drag it to work and not have to worry about much. I picked up the Heatvape for 54.77 shipped so if it can hold up it will be a good beater.

I agree. If you get something like a Kayfun and you assemble it using the metal mid piece of the tank and stick it on top of any of these devices its going to be difficult managing to find a way to break the sucker!

That's weird that heatvape would say that because if I recall the heatvape invader is a fucking emech which has been out for awhile. Didn't realize the power difference, just was going off of the looks.

Who knows with these Chinese companies. They could be sister companies and are just wanting to be on top.

There are a couple other differences beyond what was already listed. The e-lvt is less water resistant because of the vented battery plug and the adjustable 510 pin. The HV 510 ring adjusts for a ocd fit but the pin is fixed. Either way I bought the HV for a beater work mod and given its rugged shell I hope it holds up well for the task. I imagine that the e-lvt is pretty solid and rugged in its own rite.
