I'm kind of wondering if this thing also still suffers from the AeroTank half full woes. Where you fill it up then turn it right side up again and now the tank is only 1/2 full. (Yeah I know how to do the Qtip trick and use it on my AeroTank mega when ever I'm at home filling it up).

I'd be totally speculating but it would seem looking at it in one of the videos that it's got that same "issue" (if you consider it an issue anyway), and that the stainless steel tank with the viewports would minimize that effect since they're more towards the center of the tank so it would make it look fuller when you fill it up since you can't see the real top of the tank through the viewports.

With that said, if anybody gets one and absolutely hates it, feel free to send it my way, I'd be glad to give one of these a good home.

Edit, after seeing a couple more videos, indeed it does still suffer from the half full looking situation.

Didnt get to vape on it, but the had one of these at the local shop when I was in Halifax last week.
Price was the same. Right around $50.

They did mention that its designed for high wattage variables. Im sure thats no suprise for anyone.
Seems like overkill to me. I love my Aerotank V2 on the go, but for sometihng that big with those clouds... Id rather just drip.

I just bought one and am using it on my svd @ 15 watts. Probably not enough power for the coils, but it's alright thus far. The draw is a little too airy when blown wide open, but on the 2nd air hole it's nice; however, that will probably change when there's more power getting to the coils. It's heavy, that much I can tell you. I'm contemplating getting a hana 30 watt clone or the ipv 20 watt mod. I'm just worried that 20 isn't going to be enough power.

The reason for the half fill woes is simple, air pressure. The air pressure in the top of the tank obviously forces juice into the coil. That's why they made it that way. As for why the nautilus tanks are able to be filled to the top, I have no ideas. Different companies make their products different for different reasons.
