Bmb ... I had a look at Shan ages ago actually, however her storefront is consistently sold out, and I was put under the impression that there's a long line to get into in order to get one of those. It was actually her page I was looking at prior to posting here. I do have a Lavatrash (lavatube), but I really don't care for it at all....and it cannot possibly compare with most real mods. There is some time sensitivity involved, as the button is now faulty on the unit and my sole device. I suspect it won't last over a month from now and had no warranty a week after I got it.
Being on a tight budget, Shan's mods certainly have appeal in terms of cost. While there are some better ones out there, they are also almost twice the cost, with a few exceptions. I have yet to make any final decisions, but like I said, I will have to soon. I considered Ken's at one point as well, however I'd have to say that between his and Shan's were that the choice to be made, I'd have to side with Shan's. Ken, however, has quite a good deal on 2 sets of 18650 batteries and a charger.
I appreciate the feedback, thanks.
