i love and respect pbusardo as a reviewer but this review sucked,first we all know we was gonna have some mod this one way or another and all he did was take it out the box and vape..if u know pbusardo as a reviewer you know that he does his Homework with things b4 he does a review and so i think this review is premature and don't counted as a review.NEXT!

I agree with this and I hope he makes another video showing a replacement of the wick and coil. Then seeing how it vapes compared to out-of-the-box

Guys, I think he was trying to let us all know, the Out of the Box experience will be pretty awful, as some are newbies - with not little or no re-wicking/ modding knowledge under the belt, it won't help to buy something that doesn't work too good, and don't want to go through the rebuild process. So compared, a Vision ViVi would probably be better for some. Still good to know either way.
PS, anybody know what the material the plate is made of?

If I bought one, I wouldn't be thinking I had to build the thing as it's RE-buildable. I think there are some great products already on the market and if I bought one the frustration level would be much greater than the initial cost.

I think PBusardo is one of the best youtube shows out there...but I have to download it and watch it on VLC at 1.5x speed. Dude sure takes his time. And you can understand everything he says very clearly at 1.5x speed.

I bought one too just before the video came out. Laughed at myself for not waiting but I kind of expected it to be a modders kind of tank which is fine by me as I have been reading about re wicking and coil building for a while. If nothing else you get a chrome looking lavatank lookalike mouthpiece for 15 bucks. Pricey, yes but even if the tank is total garbage and can not be modded worth a flip, you have something to show for it.

Rebuilding will make this better, yes but my thinking when watching the video is that he proved these companies basically suck ... and require modification. The mindset of the vaping community is to take something and make it better. That is great! BUT we should demand better from the companies supplying us with something that barely works. Why are we buying stuff that we have to build? To tinker with yes, but I don't have the time to fix every companies mistakes. I don't think we should be so easy on these companies. I agree with Phil, the product sucks .... Along with any other rebuildable that requires you to sit down, take it apart and start from scratch. BUILD IT RIGHT. The point of a rebuildable atty is so that when the wick and coil goes bad, we can rebuild and not have to buy a new atty. The point is not to have a piece of crap and have to work long and hard to make it half ... work.

lol i was tired last night.. brain fart.. but i meant pbusardo said in his video it's a first look

anyways.. i agree we should demand more for our money and not be the guinea pigs to test this out so they can make revisions and make more money hand over fist by selling bull.... to us and raping us with out lube..

was that too graphic? so i'm thankful that phil put his own .... on the line even though he got it for free.. im sure he enjoyed the experience :D

These aren't meant to be ultra-high quality. Pbusardo vaping it right out of the box was not representative of what a "normal" user of rebuildables would do. Most have their preference regarding both wick and coil, and I doubt anyone would vape one "as is" and be satisfied. I doubt the wick and coil that comes pre-installed in these units is worth anything more than a trip to the trash bin.
