Look at warranties too get something with a lifetime warranty.I think Precise,GGTS,and other have it.
GLV offers the lifetime warranty as well. Here's the site. I'm hunting for my first mod, also. I reeeehehaaaly love the looks of the GLV units. Plus, they're supposedly powerhouses w lifetime warranty. Were I you and price wasn't that big of an object, I'd check out the GLV3, for sure. I'm looking at GLV2, but it has less bells and whistles. They are NOT variable voltage, however. Just available in 5v or 3.7v, i think. But I've just been informed that since it self regulates/adjusts output to just about any type of carto/atty you put on it, that its actually more accurate to call it an 11 watt mod. Lots of people who love em say they prefer their GLV's over their provari, but it really is different since its not VV. The only negative I've heard about them is that they run a little hot (ie intense) for people who prefer a slightly lower voltage. But geez, in terms of sleekness and awesome button and general sturdiness, it looks unparalleled to me. And if you want something that REALLY hits, here's a guy who's tried a ton of mods talking about his...says it hits twice as hard as anything else he's tried. Plus they really are the perfect size, imo. You'll see that in the link with the colors/etching options, as he's holding them.

Here's site. Glv3 has an optional juice feeder. You can use it or leave it off...theres a ton of video reviews on the site.

and here's what the GLV2 units look like. GLV3 is similar, i believe, if you leave off juice feeder...

And the Great Lakes Vapor forum here has loads of info on em.
I think what I'm going to do is buy a super cheap boxmod from madvapes at $35. I don't like the looks of the boxmods, but it'll give me the chance to figure out (since VV is new to me as well) if I really like the ability to adjust the voltage, or if I'm really happiest vaping around the 5v mark. If I like the VV, I'll probably look at a lava tube or buzzpro (provari or darwin.. darwin actually sounds more my style...is way out of my price range). If I'm happy at the 5V mark, I'm gonna jump right over to Great lakes vapor and grab a glv2!
Good luck, and I'd love to know what you end up with! This 'hunt' would be a lot more fun for me if I could afford anything I wanted, so sounds like you're gonna have a blast!
BTW, you can use any cartos/attys you want with the GLV2... it doesn't behave like a normal '5v' mod that way. here's this article w attached demonstration...
