True about the eVic being available, but it has several shortcomings that the CVI-2 completely addresses:

The eVic's switch has a 2.5 or 3 amp limit. The CVI-2's has a 5-amp limit.

In VW mode, the eVic can only reach 11 or 12 watts. The CVI-2 goes to 15 like most other VW devices.

I can't remember whether the eVic uses RMS mode, but the CVI-2 definitely does.

They both have pros and cons

I'd say if you won't go over the limitations of an eVic, the eVic is a better device. Better homescreen (with 1.2), smoother vape (no rattlesnake) at comparable wattages (according to the reviews the CVI uses the zmax/vamo chip, I have a zmax and an eVic) and of course in device charging.

The CVI is cheaper and goes bigger on power. The only caveat is from what I can tell you will need to stack batteries to get to 15 watts in most cases but obviously still much more than an eVic.

Both have a place and a target user.

OK well aparently all the shipments that were due to drop anytime soon have been recalled by AnyVape due to the control head issues from the review. There is more info in the GotVapes thread. I think I am giving up for awhile. At this point a rev2 will have to be manufactured and then shipped all after their holiday. I think we are looking at least at a couple of months from now.

That would be the CVI-1. We're not sure yet what the CVI-2 uses, but it has a new screen exactly like the eVic, and therefore may need to use the same (or similar) chip as the eVic.

Its a purely cosmetic difference. The new screen is designed to look like the evic, but the CVI chip is the same in both versions. Anyvape will continue to sell both versions so users can choose which look they prefer. They confirmed that on their facebook page.

I like the first version. the blue one especially


Apparently everyone else likes the blue one too, it's sold out on the three websites I've found it 0.o
