Well, I will only say that I think for $250 it should come ready to use out of the box, which would include battery/charger. ![Two Cents :2c: :2c:](/i/s/2c.gif)

Enough complaining about the price.
The battery sounds similar to the AW 2900 cell, but assembled in the USA. Did anyone else notice the "2C" spec? I read this as saying the current the Cera will draw is near 6 amps, implying the new core(?s?) will be about 20-25 watts of power. Also, the page for the oil version now says "Four times the capacity from previous models" which is more than the 2x we had previously been told. I'd also guess the oil and e-liquid versions have both a smaller chamber and uses less power then the loose-leaf version, but...

I doubt assembled in the USA means anything other than "We bought these cells from Japan and then wrapped them up"; but that 2C specification is quite interesting. In fact, this new cell could possibly be two 16340 incorporated in a single 18650 sized cell to facilitate the extra power.
Nick,
Looks like an error on their website. The info within the CERA Essential Oil "section" indicates that the oil capacity is 2x's that of the original (and in line with what we've previously been told).
Looks like the vaperblunt 2.0 need some more looking at!

CZ,
So it looks like "assembled and protected in the USA" means said protection circuitry, overwrap and electrical connections are a "final process" performed in the USA???
Good points OF, although the batteries Fisker was using were made by A123Systems, which is now bankrupt.
To get back on topic; I've just been looking at some of the pictures on the pre-order site and it looks like the button sticks out about a half of a centimeter while disengaged. Does anyone else think this could be a problem in the pocket?
I am not sure but from what I got from Tims explanation, that button can be down and locked in the on or off position. They may have pictured it like that for comparison purposes.Oh god; Solyndra. That certainly was a debacle. Though to be honest I'm surprised that the building itself hasn't sold off to some young, forward thinking entrepreneur to make some "Green" datacenter or something. That solar panel roof probably puts out like 25MW on a sunny day.

Yeah, I saw that switch and automatically thought about the potential for it getting bumped/being uncomfortable. Not really a fan of the look of it either...

have you noticed the button goes through both sides, push in on one side, it sticks out on the other, with one end showing green and the other showing white. One of the more recent pictures shows this.

In ecig world you can buy a safety eletronics for the battery called two cents, maybe it's the same...

wow. $500 for the titanium version. no FC discount?
and adapters to use the new cartridge on 510 units, correct? and why does it list battery and chargers, but then say not included. can we get a better idea how the oil cartridge works? tia
bob
Also hoping to see these adapters down the road. Was thinking that the charger isn't included in the base kit price because many (maybe most) previous customers already the charger supplied with the Evolution (etc) which is capable of charging the 18650's?? This is a very interesting.
BTW, congrats to our Mass FC'rs on becoming the 18th MMJ state!!!
NoName
What does the titanium offer in performance or as an extra that warrants the extra cost?
Although I am still excited about this vape, the price tag seems very steep...Wonder if we will get to see an fc discount...
and yes, I am also awaiting to see some pudding. Vanilla pudding please?![]()
Yep, this is definitely on the "in case I win a nice bit of money" list. Probably gonna start looking at a desktop next...
No shipping to europe? only one of the new portables that ship to eu is the INH.
woot woot! I didnt notice that...that just makes me REALLY sad...
For the Cera+battery+charger+car thingy = $299.95
Pretty good price for the basic set up. If she walks as good as she talks,I'm in!
No offence TV.... as I love your DART carts, but here is a little advice.
Stop following D9's pricing structure, add on hell, and proprietary threads.
@OF: Thank you for answering my question. It was asked twice and directed directly to TV. Unless you work at TV you couldn't possibly answer my question. I have yet to receive any answer from him on this question? Please... keep up with your opinions, but also... let TV do their job by providing an official answer.
Is there officially no FC discount on this? Going to take the plunge and order.

my guess is that after enough comments about a cell and charger coming with the kit that TV will eventually put kits on their site that do come with them. would be nice to have the option of "with or w/out".
either way, if the Cera performs as it is said it will then its worth the money. at least at this time in the portable game.
one thing i do want to know is what advantages the Titanium model has over the SS model. i would imagine it would be something pretty great. otherwise you could get two SS models for the price of one Ti model.
so what is the advantage?

on the bright side it appears that switch would keep it from potentially rolling off a table. but it does seem like it may catch easily on things like pockets and maybe even get switched on in the pocket...?
the switch on the bottom looks great though. ill take mine in the un-illuminated please
itching to hear some performance reviews and/or see some videos.
