| I just got in some of the advanced model and have been using it for a little over a day now and wanted to put my first impressions out there for anybody considering picking up one. The basic model does not have the computer interface and larger battery.
I have to say this is a slick little unit. For a 800 mah battery it feels pretty light. Id say the vapor production is on par with a CE2 at the max voltage setting. The computer interface is a little weird to get right as the Chinglish is a little confusing (imagine that  )
Basically it allows you to choose what color LED you want to have when you activate the touch sensor, limit the draw time, and number of drags before shutting down for a limited time you can adjust as well. This could be useful to somebody who over vapes or is new to vaping and doesn't want to do it too much. I keep the draw time activated only in case I put it in my pocket and the touch sensor gets activated accidentally by something in my pocket as metal objects can set it off if you forget to turn off the master switch or hold it the wrong way. The program to control the setting is pretty much instantaneous but it exits after you make the changes which is a minor inconvenience when your playing around with it. It charges off a mini usb port to USB cable. The provided cable is very thin like ear phones, but it charged in a short time off the wall wart. When its connected to the computer the led is blue, red when charging and green when ready, but whenever its on a live computer it stays blue even if the program is not running. Not sure if it is charging in that state or not yet. When connected to a computer the atty will not activate no matter the switch setting.
The black model has a nice feel with a rubberized coating just like a Joy Ego black unit.
The carts are more like shell casings with one end open and filling only but has a rim on the end to act as a stop when you chamber it over the atty. Its extremely easy to top this off or drip right on the atty as the hole is a little bigger then a CE2 but not as long.
Currently the atty is not replaceable, but modders are looking into that and I bet that issue will be solved very shortly. The air draw is a small hole next to the cart and it draws back up to the removable mouth piece next to the atty so condensate does not drain back onto the atty or filling.
It also has a small flashlight that can be handy for minor stuff but not bright enough to use for walking around with.
All in all I think this will become my main vape tool due to the size convenience and battery life and ease of topping off.
If you have any questions concerning the unit please feel free to ask.

| @Stream whats your favorite color..Blue...No yellow.... No wait.... Awwwwwwwwww
@ Bikes I'm sure you'll be getting a couple soon as I'm psychic
With CE2's I never carried around juice but this thing is so freaking easy to top off I've started now. I'm going to have to get lower nic cause Im using this thing way more then the ego's and CE'2s now. Either that or Im going to have to reprogram it so it wont let me hit it so damn often. So far the vape is much more consistent then a CE2 but topping off a CE2 out and about is really not an option. Ran into the first problem...embedded touch sensor doesn't work with winter gloves on. Used it all day yesterday and never got to the bottom of the 800 mah battery. I know I run down a single 650 mah in a day.
They said there was a 3 month warranty but who's going to send it all the way back to china? This thing is definitely becoming my main everyday vape unit. I really want to see how far the atty will go before it quits, but I like it so much I'm hesitant to bust it open to figure out how to replace the atty (with what though?) or battery. To tell the truth I'm very surprised I haven't seen somebody do that already on the web somewhere. Other then one old picture I haven't seen anybody else post a disassemble yet. I don't know if I missed something or nobody has managed to kill one yet or what.

| Im not sure to be honest Rez, I got a few as part of a coop purchase mostly with the intent to take it apart with a couple extras in case I destroyed some in the process, so buying retail was not an option.

| A month or so ago, somebody was selling them for 39.00 as a sale price from 50.00 posted in the supplier section.
I think Johnny has them. It looks like most places that carried them are out of stock though.

| Rez, our member Johnny has them cheaper than $54 and I think he has a coupon on top of that (ecigg.org)
Berger, thank you. Got 2 up and running, one programmed with green light for my menthol juice, the other purple cause I think my wife is going to try to steal it shortly but I may be able to turn it into a Valentines gift.
Priming the atty helps the initial usage. And the default settings were totally useless for my type of vaping so the programing was a must. Took about a half hour of t&e to figure out what settings worked added 1 step in that direction on each of the parameters so I wouldn't be running it into the limits and plugged those same values in for the second unit only thing different on #02 was the vape indicator color.
Thanks,BK, very pleased. As a side note this completely solves the consistant problem I have with over tightening atty/carto connections and ruining the insulator grommet in the connectors.

| Thanks Bikes,
I also like the way the carts "chamber" 
I'm lucky my wife never smoked so I get to keep all of mine.

| If you subscribe to Johnnys emails you get put in the pot for a Revolution drawing this week and a 10% coupon code for starter kits. Rez, that would put you in at<$42+S&H.
I think it charges from the USB It must, most people would use it that way, and unless you open the Boge program it should charge but the blue light is mystifying.

I left it on a PC for several hours and it never turned green from blue either. It appears to sense the other circuit. I really wonder if it is charging on a computer or not? How did you charge yours Bikes?

| I have this slick little charging station with a couple of USB ports and 2 cords with an assortment of adaptors so I can chg 2 PVs , my phone and camera simultaneously. It has a nice 10"x12" silicon pad so I can use it for a mixing station as well. Plus the usual high and low rate wall warts with USB out from starter kits. Charged mine on the low out wall warts, took over 3 hrs.

| Being a GIRL, I have to say it reminds me of Lifeline. "HELP, I've fallen and I can't get up!" Even the ones with the pretty Chinese girls on them just don't do the trick for this gal. Then when you have to draw off the condom thingy....I just don't know | |

Cool...If I can make it work that's the one you'll be prototype testing...I figure if it gets passed you it will be certified as indestructible by Steampunk's High Impermanence Testing Laboratories.

(I shouldn't say this, but you have a decent price on the 510 PT. As much as I like making my own, sometimes I actually BUY somethings!)
Also, who makes your juices? PG? And, the 1.8 Ohm Cartos look like fun...
Now...if my CHECK would get here!!!!!!
