OMG Handle!
I think the reason all these have “OMG” emblazoned on them in big bold letters is because that is what you say to yourself after you try them for the first time.

Seriously, Vapor4Life originally sent me one of their starter kits to review. It was pretty good, don’t get me wrong, but for some people like myself, after you “get into” vaping a little bit, you start looking for different things. You might like more power, a different look and feel, more vapor production, capacity, etc.. That is one of the greatest things about V4L as a company, is that they can provide all that, from starter to advanced stuff and everything works with everything else. In my case, I wanted more. More battery. More control. More flavor. More VAPOR! I contacted Brian, my Vapor4Life buddy, and he said he knew just the thing. These guys are good!

He sent me one of their V4L Handle Kits. This is a variable voltage device, shaped into a handy handle that easily holds a tank full of juice and a gigantic battery. Variable voltage, as I have mentioned before, is an important feature for many vapers because it gives you a lot of control and allows you to really dial into that particular sweet spot for your favorite container medium and e-juice. You see, they all vaporize best at individual settings. Your tank or cartomizers may all have different ohm ratings not to mention your e-juice might like a lower or higher temperature to give you that perfect taste.

The handle itself can be black, blue, green or magenta and has 4 finger grip indentations on one side. Now I don’t have particularly big hands, but I cannot put all four fingers in those indentations comfortably. That just feels too cramped to me. What works really well, though, is 3 fingers on the grip and my pinkey underneath, kind of as a resting point or stabilizer. Sometimes I even flip it around and hold it in kind of a gun grip using my index finger to push the fire button.

There is a really nice LCD display on the Handle and 4 buttons. The fire button is pretty large and on the top of the device, right next to the battery terminal. This is really comfortable to use and although a bit plasticky it has a nice clicky feel and is surely designed to hold up well as I have been clicking it like crazy for weeks now without even 1 misfire. The other 3 buttons are arranged in a triangle configuration underneath the LCD display. The top two are – and + buttons which, you guessed it, control how much voltage the device puts out. Voltage can be adjusted from 3 to 6 volts round robin in .1 volt increments. You will also notice that if you hold both of these for approximately 3 seconds you get a display that says L-0, L-1 or L-2. This will change the brightness of your LCD display and this, in my opinion, is a really nice feature. The third button underneath is your on/off power switch. 5 clicks on/off and if you press this button once when the device is powered on the LCD will first display the ohms of the tank or cartomizer you have attached to it, and then a second later it will show you the remaining battery voltage. Make a note here that pressing the – or + buttons when the device is on will change the voltage whether the display is previously lit or not, so if you want to see what voltage you are set at, you’ll have to press one button and then the other to get back to your original voltage settings.

On the bottom of the Handle you will see a door for the battery slot. This device takes an 18650 battery at 2800mAh, and these are about the size of a finger and last for *DAYS* of vaping. No more worrying about having to charge your batteries throughout the day or carrying multiple batteries, etc. all you need is one of these and you are set!

Finally, on the back of the device, you see this speaker grille looking thing. This is a battery vent. Although I have never had this happen, sometimes batteries go horribly bad and vent gasses. This vent is a safety feature so if that were to happen, that would vent out of the device instead of breaking your Handle.

The Handle kit comes with the handle in your choice of colors, a battery, a charger, a tank with driptip and a bottle of e-juice of your choosing for $85. This is a GREAT price for everything you get here. This kit comes with everything you need to be vaping for days on end. If you wish, you can buy the Handle, battery and charger for only $70 (just get the full kit). Again, since this is a Vapor4Life product, and they assure you that it’ll work with all their other products as well. If you already have cartomizers, just screw them on and you can use those too! Good quality and GREAT customer service as well, and that is worth a lot! I love this thing and it rarely leaves my side! Go order yours now to avoid missing out and tell Brian I said “Hi” while you are at it. I’ll be sitting back in my chair, vaping my handle and waiting for you to join the club!
