OK it's beginning to look like you're right stylemessiah and others.
The youtube reviews I've watched, and the posts I've read don't gush about the Altus.
That's to be expected with a new device, and first impressions of most vape things don't amaze us.
We need time to mess about with things, to adjust temps and watts, get the wicking right, find the best airflow position etc.
After a few more days or a week, and if there's no improvement then I'll admit it was hype.
There are too many cons, starting with the price, it would have to be better than good to sell for $120. As it stands it's a $20 tank, we won't know about the year long limited guaranteed heat pad, until it's still working in a year, and by the level of enthusiasm I doubt most people will still be using it in a week.
The clouds were underwhelming, so most reviewers said, although I don't chase clouds, so they looked big enough for me.
Bottom fill for that price is out of the question, if the heating pad lasts for a year, they should have put it in the latest designed, easy to fill, leak proof tank, that will still be desirable this time next year.
Hank Vapes did a good youtube video review, and didn't mess up the wicking.
it's a bit long but he covers everything.
He had a similar view as the other first reviewers, poor tank design, not enough clouds produced, the taste wasn't outstanding.
