After sitting here and vaping this ultralite, long lavatube, I must say that aesthetics aren't as perfect as the Provari, but this thing hits like a monster and the menu screen is less tricky than the Provari (I LIKE THE PROVARI"S MENU SCREEN, though). Just saying that this unit after I bang it around for a few months to see if any real problems arise may be a big hit. It appears fairly sturdy and is muuuch lighter than my Provari. If this device should prove to be reliable, I say it replaces the ego for the beginner' 1st or 2nd e-cig purchase. Seems to be of good quality at an affordable price. I may have to post a follow up you tube video review for this one!!!
