    It's a nice kit, and the Zmax is a popular device. Where are you buying from? If from out of Canada, there is a slight chance that customs might have an issue with the battery (they consider them dangerous items, go figure). Alternatively, you might want to check out canvape.com if you haven't already. You could piece together the same kit in one order.

    Just as a thought, you might also want to consider the iTaste SVD, another very popular device with the same features (and also available at canvape). I have the ZMax and the SVD - the SVD gets more use (mostly an aesthetic thing, so you might feel the opposite).

    The Davide tank should be fine. They are a variant of the Kanger Protank line, and use the same Kanger coil units. I personally find the Davides a tad leaky, but others really enjoy them. Note that these use single coils, not doubles as several of the newer tanks do (e.g., Kanger aerotank, protank 3, aspire nautilus). The jury is out as to whether or not that's a good thing (the dual coil units get either rave or bad reviews).

    Happy vaping, no matter your choice.

    Thanks for the info my friend I was planning to buy it from viper-vape in the states I will take your advise & check out canvape 1st & for sure I may reconsider the iTaste SVD.
    As of Davide clearo Im aware that is a single coil however Anyvape Davide BCC to BDC Adapter will do the trick!

    ECV sells the body for $40 I think (and may have their logo on it, I got my 1st here. Silver, flat top, and the top cap doesn't remove. Came with both bottom caps

    Bought 2nd from Canvape (gunmetal). Sigelei logo under button and CE logo's on bottom cap. Only 1 bottom cap, but does fit all batteries i've used (from single 18350's to stacked 18350), think it was $59 there

    Thanks all for your feedback I still have 2 questions though:
    1- What is the difference between flat & round top?
    2- What is RMS & how does it work?
    Thanks in advance.

    The pic u supply above is a round top, see how it tapers inward. The flat top is symmetrical from bottom to top ie same diam.

    RMS Root Mean Square..... will cause the PV to To adjust the voltage accordingly to your coil, I think lol. Man mode I believe guesses. I'm sure to be corrected if in wrong.
