I picked one up tonight too. It's only been a few hours of use, but so far I'm very happy with it. It's quite a bit longer and heavier than my Sigelie V5, but I like the heft and feel of it. It's super easy to use, no menu to learn and it hits great. With the BVC's I'm using in my tanks, I needed a PV that could push a little more heat than what I was using, and it does. Plus this has step down for those who need it. It's working great!
I too was a little surprised and pleased my local store had the SVD 2 available to purchase. When I finally decide to buy something, I sort of hate waiting for it to arrive in the mail. I'm glad they had it.
By the way, I've been lurking here the last couple of months learning all I can once I stopped smoking and started vaping....and this is my first post. So I'm glad you asked.
