Here today we have the Gen Max by Vaporesso graciously provided to me by Sourcemore for the purpose of this review. For the tank I'm using a SMOK TFV12 Prince tank running a .11ohm T10 coil. The juice I'm running for this review is Juice Head Blueberry Lemon 70/30 0mg. I'll be running it in the recommended wattage for the coil right around 98W. For the drip tip, I'm using a Glow In The Dark 810 I got a while back off AliExpress.

***Review***
Well after it got lost for a month in Chicago, I got it roughly 3 days ago on April 19th. In that time, I've come to learn a multitude of things about this device. I'll start with the positives. First being that the button is easy to use surprisingly. Second, that the lock switch, works flawlessly. Third being that it's as small (compact) as a Gen S 220 which I have with an original ITank. Fourth being that it's not power hungry, meaning my batteries last me about half a day versus what they do in my Legend 3. Okay now for the negatives. First of the negatives is that it's an 18650 mod which seems to be coming back into fashion with a lot of mods being solely 18650 powered as of late. Second is that it goes up or down in 2W increments instead of .05W, .1W or even 1W increments, not a deal breaker but also kind of odd. The Third and perhaps biggest negative is that it doesn't charge at all, or if it does it's very slowly unless you use the included cable. I tested this out by using a standard Vaporesso Type-C USB cord, a regular USB-C cord, and the ***exact*** Vaporesso cord that came with the mod. It charged slowly on the regular Vaporesso cord that came with my last Vaporesso device (XROS Pro) and not at all charged on my regular store bought Type C USB cord, whereas it charged from 50% to 100% in a matter of minutes on the Vaporesso cord that came with the mod. This sucks because it means you're limited to using that cord or sacrificing your charging speed. It's great when you're on the go in your car to use the quick charge cord. Otherwise you can use a regular Vaporesso Type-C cord and charge it over the course of an hour or 2. That said how does it vape? Well honestly I've switched out my Legend 3 to use this as my at home mod as it performs wonderfully. Will it go out of the house with me? Absolutely not. Why you ask? Because it just seems to fragile for what I do to my mods. When I'm funning the Purple Smoke Eater (as I call it), my TFV12 Prince tank, it puts clouds out better than my Legend 3 surprisingly. Best part is that no matter what tank I put on it, whether it be my Falcon 2, SMOK TFV12 Prince, Z Fli, or even my Geekvape Cerberus, it recognizes the coil correctly ohms wise, and puts it at the best wattage for the coil which has always been right smack dab in the middle of the recommended range. Clouds are as to be expected when running a stock coil tank. I haven't attached an RTA or RDA onto it yet but I imagine it'll run around the same way as with other mods, although it may have a little better performance due to the slightly better chip.
***Verdict***
Honestly if you're looking for something where if you're not going to bring it out of your house, but still want something sophisticated and sleek? Pick this bad boy up. Easily a 8.8/10. Just that the cord kills it's score considerably as the cord is very short and would hang from a traditional outlet which ***sucks.*** I do love it though despite it's flaws, but it's never ***ever*** leaving my house unless I decide "ah screw it I'm going to take it outta the house."
