With
vaping gear. more often than not the preorder expected release date changes. This is my second preorder, the IPV2 was my first. With the IPV2 they rushed to meet the anticipated date and shipped some small batches to a few vendors that skipped the official QC process, probably as a favor, and their were some problems.
Having been through the IPV2 preorder, I think it's a good thing that they aren't rushing out a few small batches, all it did with the IPV2 was send out more subpar units than would have been sent otherwise, which was a problem because many people were ...... that others who preordered got there unit but they didn't, and because the ones that did go out had the negative attention and press, so at the same time the internet was buzzing with people ...... because they had units rushed out too early and everyone else ...... that they didn't get units rushed out early like the others.
I think P4U is handling this better based on my research but only time will tell.
I'm just as impatient as anyone else, I was going to order another mod today if anyone had any in stock but I haven't found any of the competitors in stock either. Just something to tinker with until the IPV3 gets here.
There's been some problems with P4U's US repair center/warranty claim center and support contractors, so that may be something P4U is attempting to address as well.
I hope my post doesn't come off wrong I'm not meaning anything critical I was just sharing my observations in case they're helpful.
