Hi ecf members, as i already own the various voltage version of this device and finding it to be a superb mod i was very pleased when James from the Healthcabin sent the standard version free of charge for review. So a massive thank you to him.

Aesthetics
As with all Smoant products it just looks quality, they have a look of their own which oozes class. The leather sticker on the battery cover both looks and feels right. It has a lovely polished look and even the buttons just look and feel quality. Smoant obviously payed attention to every detail.
The one sent to me is the camo version but there's plenty of options.

Display
The display is nice and bright and simple standard fair navigating through the various modes including temperature control. It was during using the menu i actually found a con even if i am splitting hairs Sometimes when you 5 click the device to turn it off it takes 2 or 3 attemps but apart from that the mod is a breeze to use.
Using the Device
I found the device a dream to use and smoants Ant 218 chip performs masterfully. The fire button is very responsive and i had no issues whatsoever. The device fits in the hand comfortably and is a nice size for carrying around. The 510 connection pin is amongst the best out there, i expected nothing else from a smoant. Being a beginner at temp control and to not misinform you i looked at various other reviews on that subject from reviewers i rate highly. The conclusion is as usual Smoant have done a grand job. While using the device it stays very cool helped by plenty of vent holes on the back and front sides of the mod.

Feels and looks great.
Very responsive fire button.
great 510.
Nice bright display.
Easy to navigate menus.
Plenty of battery vents which as well as keeping the device cool adds to the looks.
Dislikes
Sometimes takes more than one attempt to switch device off (i might just not have the knack)
Conclusion
A quality mod, in both design and performance; at an unbelievably low price when compared to other top performing devices.
