First,
Second, thanks for posting this information as it is nice to get a first hands on initial impression by a potential customer. Thanks to ProVape too for saying it's ok to post your impressions.
Let's see I am trying so hard to think of some questions, hopefully this ain't too many...
When you screw on the atty, does it go all the way down or is there a space for airflow?
There's good draw - I'm happy with it- I think this is something they are tuning.
How was the leakage from the atty in terms of was it hard to clean out the reservoir and did you have to do it often?
EDIt: DIDn't get that right the first time.... well, leakage has nothing to do with the device, it's based on how you drip/flood your atty- I think you mean overflow... that said, the reservoir is bigger than the V3- looks like it holds at least 1/4 ml and is easy to wipe out with the corner of a paper towel... I got sloppy one night after too much turkey and did have a little run over the edge... but the reservoir holds alot of juice....
So when the amp safety cutoff kicked in, is it just a matter of dialing the voltage down one level to get it to start working again?
it's a matter of removing the condition that caused the fault.. that would be one way
So if an error occurs, and once you fix it by replacing the atty, battery, etc. are your voltage settings saved? I wasn't sure if it saves it for normal battery changes but if it resets because of an error?
yes- but it doesn't matter- its so easy to set, the voltage yet almost impossible to change it unless you want it to.... they got this UI really clean.
How is the size of it, does it feel good in the hand, does it stick out and look odd, or can you compare it to another device? I know there are side
by side pics of this and the ProVape but just wasn't sure if this feels like something ginormous that you wouldn't want to walk out in public with, etc.
a couple of mm bigger than a V3 ... I think Dave can give you the exact specs- roughly, just under 4 1/4 inches...
it's definitely stainless... similar to a roll of quarters- not any worse than other 18650 sized devices....
How were the threads, did they need to be worked in, were they already smooth?
Smooth and percise- no binding.
How was the feel of the button, does it make a clicking noise?
smooth- sticks out enough to find but not too much to snag too easily. Doesn't click. LED can be disabled otherwise only lights up when pressed and device is on... In person looks like a glass button not plastic.
I know you had limited experience with it but how would you rank\rate it based on your initial impressions for other devices you have or tried?
Tough question- there's room for more than one device in my stash.
"
Let's say there's a class of devices - "tube devices desinged to be all day vapers"
On vapor production and consistency- the best yet...
Against other tube devices- best yet
For simplicity, ease of use, form and function- best yet...
Sorry for all the questions, that's all I could think of that you didn't already comment on as well as what is already provided by the ProVape group.
Thanks

No prob- I just want to tell you that they got this device right. It is what they said it would be, does what they said it would do and delivers a great consistent vape. Everyone who has one on pre order should be real excited about getting it.
I hope they can get the production run out to you as planned and I can tell you that from a quality perspective, so far, if they told me the beta was the production device I'd have been happy paying full price for it.... it's all here.
