I had originally seen this item after RedCowboy posted pictures and a link to it on DHgate, I liked it and intended on purchasing it after reading 23.61 USD per unit. But then I saw it had to be ordered in bulk, minimum 5 units. = 118 USD. No thanks.
So I ended up going on eBay to see how much they were going for, individually instead of in bulk.
I don't vape, so I'm not sure what this would connect to, but it's the battery bay for some kind of device.
Saw a few listings, probably about 10 of them. Not very many listings considering this is eBay, an international selling website. Saw a listing for one $25 USD shipped, but with the best offer function on the listing I saved myself $4 and got it for $21 USD shipped. Best part: it was in a city an hour away from me.
Ordered Wednesday, it came in today, 2 days from transaction to my hands. Quite easily the fastest and most painless online transaction I've ever performed.
I haven't even ordered the 22nm heat sink or a diode to go with it yet. I'll be bothering DTR for one in the future. :p
Here's pictures of the packaging it came in:

Apologies for the second un-focused image, the body itself:

The body is real carbon fiber, something I haven't quite seen before. I've seen and have carbon fiber wrap which isn't the actual thing, but this is the real material. However this by far is my favourite feature of this "host"!:

I love the LED function and colour, it also has a built in lock mechanism; if you click the button 5 times it will lock and all inputs will be ignored except for the unlock sequence, which is pressing it 5 times again. The button is momentary.
