The Velocity V2 is the Velocity V1 with some minor changes...mostly just small cuts into the Topcap for making sure its lined up correctly and then has a second nob to lock the topcap oin the base...thats about all the changes done. I dont think its worthy of calling it a "V2", more like a V1.1

The changes stated by Cisco and Dino
  • Shorter 510 threads for safer hybrid setup
  • Convertible bottom feeding pin
  • Thicker negative/positive posts
  • Larger post holes
  • More efficient Indirect airhole placement
  • Double notch for locking tab
  • Cap alignment registration marks
  • Thicker primary cap
  • 3mm shorter profile
  • Smaller chamber

The velocity Mini has locator tab just rotate the topcap till in locks in. Makes removing and installing the atty on the mod nice.

All the Velocities should have the tab, the V2 has one on each side though. I do appreciate that tab and think more RDA's should have one...

DANG! My clone just has one tab on the deck!
If you look in Cisco and Dino's info on the Authentic V2 it shows :
  • Double notch for locking tab
So if it doesnt have it it's definitly a V1 Clone or a V2 clone thats not a 1:1

Ohh it is tobecco, but not sure if it is a clone or not since they did not make a mini.

Got a 1:1 clone with the notches (2) from a local B&M yesterday. $17. No idea who made it, but they sell a shit ton of them to builders who like their claptons.

Dang, even has a squonk pin. Hmm, Need to change it out and put it on my SIB with a HB2 batt.
