Thank you everyone for all the GREAT advice and suggestions!!!! OK, I have had sometime to do my research and I think I have narrowed it down to the iGo from Nhaler and the GLV2!!!

I am convinced that either one would give me the amount and quality of vaping I am looking for. GLV is a little more expensive but the initial cost of the unit is not a deciding factor. What is important is the quality and style and convenience of the PV.

I like the design, style and convenience of the iGo. However, I don't see many reviews on the iGo and can only assume it is very new. I see you get 2 units and the batt life seems to last a day or 2 but the review I saw on youtube showed a difference in the buttons between the 2 units this particular individual received. One button being more recessed than the other. That would bug me as if I had a matching pair I would want them to be identical so as not to favor one over the other. I also don't see any warranty info regarding the iGo (not to say it's not there, I just don't see it)

I really like the GLV2 in every category that is important to me. I like the fact it is just one unit and I can switch out batteries. Thank you keyzgirl for your response to my question about the connection as that has eased my mind on that.

The question I have now is how does the battery system for this GLV work? Do I keep a pair of batts on a charger and 2 in the unit? Most importantly, if my batts run out and I have no access to my back ups, can I go to any store that sells batteries and buy a pair that will work??? Can I buy rechargeable ones there??? In case of emergency I think that would be a huge piece of mind knowing I can go down the road, get some batts and keep on vaping!! Please let me know if this is the case and it will make my decision a lot easier!

Thank you.....
You'll be fine with either of those choices. There is no doubt in my mind that the the GLV is a better made unit. Lots of love put into those. And the IGO is a fairly new device, so You're prob spot on there as well. If you get time, let us know what you got, and how it's working out for you. Oh, and I saw the review you were speaking of. He did a good job, and I expected there to be a diff in my buttons, and there was not. Might just be luck of the draw, as these are mass produced. Good luck, and happy vaping!

Do you know about the battery question on the GLV??? Can I go to the local store and buy batts for it???

Oh and Thank you for your reply! As soon as I know about this battery thing I'll make my choice and re-post what I think of the one I choose.

Trying to remember. I've never had one, But I thought that the larger glv took and 18650, or two cr123 3v for 6v vaping. I could be wrong about that though. Their website sells 3.7v 750 mah protected(ALWAYS USE PROTECTED BATTERIES, OR YOU MIGHT HAVE AN EXPLOSION!!!) cr123a batteries. I know they have a mini glv now, but not sure if it only accepts one of these batteries, or a smaller battery. Maybe shoot a PM to Keyzygirl and see what she says. Just click on her avatar, and it will take you to her message page. You can get cr123a's at a store, as they are usually for camera's and heavy duty flashlights. But I'm not sure if the ones available at stores are protected. If you are not sure, DO NOT BUY! Get them off of a website that has all the info you need. I've never heard of anyone getting hurt, but I've seen pics of mods that have had a battery vent hot gas in them. Not pretty. And there is no way I'd want that to happen anywhere near my face!

LOL, it won't end there. TO many wicked cool gadgets hitting the market these days. I can't tell you how many time I thought I had found the holy grail of vaping, only to shelve it months later after a new find.
