Got my email today and mulled it over for a minute. But at this price i have to say yes, so i emailed the man back and asked for an invoice.
Considering there is a waiting list, I highly doubt it....especially for under $100.Just heard about this vape for the first time today. Haven't had time to mull thru all this info to see if it would be worth the 150 for me or not. With 4/20 sales being around the corner any chance of prices seeing $100 or under?

If you signed up on the waiting list when it was $120 you still get it at that price right?
Got ya, well looks like I got some reading to do. Looking for something on demand to join my vape "collection" (arizer air vapcap OG and omnivap)...stumbled upon this while looking into the ff2 which is my front runner right now but as you said ill put my name on the list and keep reading
You can see there is just a tiny bit of clearance between the male stem and the screen
I believe everybody on the list before February 22nd is at $120.If you signed up on the waiting list when it was $120 you still get it at that price right?
Everyone on the list is in at $120, moving forward the Touch will be $150. Materials are costing more than I anticipated. Shipped over a dozen units over the last week and there will be a few more as this batch winds down. Ordered enough wood for 50 more units. Starting next week I'll find out how long it takes to batch start to finish.
For the cost of an FF2 you could buy an MVT and a Milaana. I use my MVT for a good portion of the day and my Milaana for evening and getting to sleep.
I happen to believe that a "stock" MVT is much prettier than a "stock" Milaana.
Keep up the good work and GREAT vapes!!
@Fat Freddy I did some experiments and I think the cup in the female stem is a winner.
Here is a first attempt cup screen for this
Here is the screen in a female stem
The screen is tapered so that "collar" grips the side walls for more stability.
Here is the stem with a male inserted.

Now the really cool part. The way I have the current screen set up it takes about 80 grams of force to dislodge the screen. With the new tapered cup screen it takes about 800 grams to push it through.
Current screens set ups will be able to be retro fitted without to much trouble.
Obviously this needs to be tested before I start to manufacture them like this but I'm pretty sure this is where it is headed. Thanks for asking Fat Freddy
Thanks for the info, after a quick look it seems like the mvt and milaana are almost exactly the same and do the same things just at different price points so I can't see why I would need both. If I went with 2 for the price of the ff2 then I'm leaning LSV and MVT right now
Anyone use the arizer air 18650s in their MVT?

RE: Loading and multiple screens.
What I've been doing with the Milaana is having one basket screen pushed into the stem a bit. Then I fill the screen, and pop in one of the small ELB/DDave style rimmed basket screens to close it up. Gives all the perks of a two-screen system but is much easier to deal with than using two basket screens. If the sizing works out for your system it could solve your issue of easy loading and not having a heater screen, though personally I'd prefer to have a heater screen no matter what.
I found this idea over in the Milana thread and was liking the simplicity of the modification, wondering about its application to the MVT?
Maybe?

@Bizkat you are correct anyone in before 2/22/17 is in at $120, in after that date and it is $150
@DramaLV a lower price or special sale isn't in the works. Currently the price is too low and may increase again, as in the past I will honor whatever price you get on the list at. When I say the price is too low I mean that I have to find a price point that allows me to hire people to help with this unit. I am doing everything from sweeping the floor, to making the parts to shipping and customer service.
@KeroZen any engraving would be a custom item and whatever the buyer wanted but the message is clear, no leaf
The female joint on the Touch is 14/23 but the male stems should be 14/20. The standard male stems for the Touch were made in China, the female stems are Lenz glass. I believe any 14/20 stem would fit the Touch so the new screen system would accept any 14/20 male stem. At least we will examine that with the testers and go from there.
Do you have any thoughts about the zion compared to this?They are not really, they have various differences laid out in this thread previously. Both are far superior to the FF2 in my experience, and honestly the LSV as well. And don't think Air batteries work, need more amps

@Little Bill you may be up sooner than you think. I am seeing about 15% dropout rate.
Once again I am seeing people just not responding and I don't like posting this here because most people who read this are very cooperative. I posted guidelines on the list page and will probably change up to give people less time. Seems people who want in answer quick and either get their unit or drop out for whatever reason. I had one person ask to go to the bottom of the list and the next time their turn was up they settled quickly.
I'm tracking all this activity and will remember (I did database work for many years and all the sales, drop outs and feet dragers are duly noted). It takes a lot of effort to do this and I have been very accommodating with people but that is going change.
Again my apologies for posting here since most of you are also accommodating to my schedule but people just don't get it, it shouldn't take a week to have 6 people respond and purchase or drop out.
You could also try starting a deposit system so people are committed,
