Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds
I just got my second pair from Karin, the green LEDS on one of the shoes didn't work at all. And to charge them you had to jiggle the port...very poor quality compared to the first ones...They were very dirty like someone was handling them with dirty hands, and they had glue all over the straps which I was able to clean up though mostly. I talked to Karin it was hilarious. There is no way that they "INSPECT" each shoe before sending it lol they just pack it up and ship it...

What did Karin say exactly? She should agree to exchange them for you.
In other news this d0uche bag is trying to pass off some modded Chinese knockoffs as the real thing. The only way to get rid of him is to report him, so please do so!

Yeah
V1 Size 12 US which i have are identical in length to V2 size 11 US.
the other sizes i have also seem to indicate that all these mags are 1 size too big.
So if you are getting you pair, go for minimum 1 size down, and since these mags are pretty open at the boot area, i would even go down another size.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds
She said they were damaged in shipping...and they were tested before sending and they worked...and she said give them a pat and see if they work lol...I patted them to please karin...nothing happened didn't even blink. I kept mentioning they were dirty and the charging doesn't work right but basically she ignored that and didnt even acknowledge anything except the 4 LEDS not working. She agreed to give me a discount on my next pair though so that's cool. I don't know how much of a discount but still...not worth sending them back for 4 LEDS and charging not working right as it can be fixed.
Also it says in his listing those are replicas...it says these are replicas of the 1500 original.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds
to be honest, just rip out out the original wiring.
the leds and sole leds are just awful in my opinion.
im modding all my pairs now!
can't stand the sight of them as they come originally.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds
Thats pathetic, I would have put in a complaint through the aliexpress system. If you were going to rip out the electronics anyway then fine, but for most people who want them to work out of the box like they should thats just a lazy response. I wouldnt be ordering another pair through her.
As for the ebay guy the way he's worded it is very sneaky, I thought he was saying they were 1 of the 1500 original ones but when I re-read it I can see what you mean. Nevertheless they shouldnt be allowed on ebay as they are a replica/counterfit product. eBay are pathetic at patroling this so i regularly report anyone selling the knockoffs on ebay for extorted prices. I encourage others to do the same.

EDIT: Just fixed my resent pair and beefed up all the connections, the wire for the green LEDS was completely disconnected. Told Karin that the connection wasn't even soldered on and she said she would tell factory lol...but she still insisted that it was damage from shipping.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds
Would you sell one for more then 300 of custom work was done to it I mean the price will be higher because of detail and some fixes such as Nike strap lighting up ...if you do auction you really can't control the prices only thing you can say is that it's replicas ...

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds
if anyone has opened their v2s and is trying to fit a 9v inverter and battey, don't bother, it won't fit. In fact, only a 9v battery just about barely fits inside. So im not sure how everyone is managing to fit both a battery AND an inverter in that tiny square hole without grinding out more of the sole rubber out.
i bought 2 of these 9v inverters here, and they don't fit inside.
http://www.elwirecraft.co.uk/el-pro...able-tiny-waterproof-inverter-for-5m-el-wire/
I asked people a few times what 9v inverters they were using but nobody was bothered or interesting in answering, so its good thing i only bought 2 to start off with.
The only 9v inverter that will fit is this one it seems and this is not available in the UK anywhere, and the shipping this seller offers is extortionate. But then how the hell is the battery going to fit? a 9v battery by itself just about fits in, but there is no space whatsoever for anything else.
CL-IPTC-9v-3-7FT
a thin 9v inverter
it would have been helpful if someone had stated this earlier, would helped me avoid wasting money.
If anyone has any close up pictures of how they have fitted the battery/inverter in that tiny hole feel free to share.
Looks like another alternate method is needed.
There is no way to fit a 9v battery in there with an inverter without it touching your feet. Impossible, unless you grind out the square and make more space for the battery.
9v is now out of the question in my opinion, so im looking at other alternatives.
Because of the crappy V2 buckle not even being hollow enough, it makes very hard to add an inverter and battery inside there.
The Cloneprops buckle seems to solve this problem. But im trying to work out an alternate method without having to buy new ankle buckles.

Re: Nike Mag V2 mod discussion and builds
In my honest opinion, forget 9v!!!.
Use 3v coin cell inverter of the elwirecraft(Im using that model), dissamble it , and use a high Mah battery of 3,6v(cellphone,camera, ect).

has anyone search for the shoe on ebay recently? It seems they have pulled the auction for most of the knock off mags
