Okay, I received my Zenesis mini yesterday evening, and as promised, here is my review:
The Zenesis mini comes in a convenient and very attractive, black, zippered, clam shell case with a foam cut-out made for the mini to rest in and an elastic strap to hold the mini comfortably within the foam cut-out, complete with a zippered pocket on the other side of the case that contains extra pre-rolled, pre-conditioned ss wicks, a card with kanthal wire, and a syringe with a blunt needle for filling the mini. The clam shell case is semi-hard and quite sturdy. (I can say that with certainty since the USPS packaging looked like it had been through a tornado but the clam shell case was in perfect condition as were the contents of the case.)
The Zenesis mini is highly polished brushed steel, and it is as beautiful as any jewelry. The pv stands at a bit over 4.5 inches. With my Super-T drip tip, the entire pv stands at 5.5 inches tall. I have small hands, but it fits easily in my hand, and it feels so comfortable.
Mike (Zen~) was kind enough to pre-clean and completely set up his wonderful pvs for his customers, so my mini was ready to go upon opening. He is truly a wonderful person. As anyone who vapes knows, unless you use a self-contained, disposable, corner store e-cigarette, even a simple Joyetech ego-t kit requires set up, but Zen~ did the work for his customers. There was nothing to blow out, nothing to fix, nothing to do except add the battery and juice and break in the wick.
The ONLY thing I am not 100% crazy about is the fiddly button, but it hits 8 out of 10 times with a bit of Noalox, and Zen~ is sending everyone new buttons. Amazing! I grow more impressed with him daily. Also, as I am a bit clumsy, I think I will need to get one of the extra tanks in case I drop and break this one. I am not about to cover up this beautiful pv, but I am terrified that I will drop it and break the tank (oops...juice reservoir), and I never want to go another day without my Zenesis mini. It is truly my final vaping solution. Of course, I will keep back up methods of vaping around just in case of emergency, but I hope I will never have to use them again. This is the perfect pv…oops…apv. Like Zen~ says, it is an APV (advanced personal vaporizer), and I am absolutely in love with it!
Now, the search is on for the perfect pocket case worthy of holding my Zenesis mini .
You take the red pill and you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.
