Thanks for giving us the feedback we needed. As a 1.5 ohm DCC vaper, I know not to keep entertaining it even though it is novel in design. Thanks for keeping us informed!
Great, informative & humorous video - as always - Phil.
Interesting looking device...wonder if it will take off?

Is it just not working on a 1.5 DC or any 1.5 device? What is the Mah on this thing?
Listed at 900 mAh. Just not rated for 1.5 devices, needs 2.0 or higher. Works for me!

Yep, 900mAh. Confusing on the rating though. The website lists it at 2.2Ohms or higher and in the manual, it's 2.0Ohms or higher.
Oh, and thanks all!
I beleive Pbursardo did not fully appreciate the MAIN benefits of the Swithback. My opinion.
of course! The stealth cap is only on when in stealth mode. This feateare alone makes the Switchback very cool and helful when needing a smaller device! Sell a device that simply goes stealth, and it's a major win at this price point! The Switchback has a few other tricks up it's sleeve and that makes this device ultra cool! As far as power is concerned, the 2.O Boge carts provide really NICE (steady) vapor production! Also this device is a 3.7 device regulated at 3.5 volts! This keeps vapor production steady from start to finish which is a good thing!
I typically have two cartomizers on the Switchback, one on each side, making switching flavors a breeze and doubling ON BOARD vapor capacity! Are you kidding, how cool for school is that!!! This is the main benifit from my perspective and one I LOVE! I use the LONGER cap to cover/protect the cartomizer I'm not vaping. This provides a place for the (Longer cap) while acting as the main grip for the Switchback! I don't believe this main featue was highlighted, because Pbursardo would switch flavors by screwing on a new cart, rather than moving the cap and vaping the other side.
Forget all the other features that were fun but began to make the Switchback look gimicky in the review, although VERY entertaining!
For 49 bucks this really is a product that should be appreciated for what it is! A well made, beautiful feature ritch 3.7 volt device that offers a nice experience for less than 50 bucks! So WTF, give more credit for a device that helps keep things interesting and PROVIDES several HELPFUL benifits! So sure, this is not the invention of the light bulb, but it is the first e-cig in the WORLD that can be vaped from both sides and that in my mind is pretty damm cool!

@Hotbody,
I think at 900 mah it fails in stealth mode compared to other units of similar size (thinking empiremod or GG stealth, with an 18350)
However I think it looks ok given its 50 dollar price tag...I wouldn't turn one down if they sent it to me and I could see myself throwing it in a bag with the cover over the atomizer to keep it safe and clean..however for 50 bucks I could also get two 900 mah Riva's and a cigar tube to put them in (and still take up less space than this fat hog)

Goldenkobold,
GG stealth looks Like a really nice device! I saw a couple videos, very cool indeed! The Switchback thickness actually an advangage for me, just feels good in the hand! Of course I'm a 6' 4 black man so that makes sence! LOL.

I saw your review and there are some issues with this unit. However for the price its great. I ordered the stainless with a coupon and it costs $40.00. It comes with 10 cartos. Considering the cost of cartomizers - thats $12-$17.00. So the unit was really only $25+ . Its a nice unit for stealth mode. Its going to be my double fisted mini mod.

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.. Here is another review! I use my Switchback in stealth allot, however I do like the veracity of the unit as well
Not sure why, when I press on the link it opens up just fine! Sorry about that, you can go to ecigstop on you tube, it's one of Docs videos!
I like the red one! Mine is blue and looks great with my Liquinator tank with blue o-rings! Next one is red!
Well DAMMIT ... wish I'd seen this before I bought one. I'm only getting 45 min before the orange flash! I think this is a great idea, but the low batt life is a real negative.
