I have one. I like it but dont really have anything to compare it to as it was and is my first mod. Ive had it since september and it works fine. But i am seeing a small issue with the screen not reading ohms properly. A .15 ohm coil will read any number it feels like it seems. Im still trying to figure this out. But otherwise, ive had no problems that prevent me from vaping with it. The paint will chip off a bit or a lot. Time will tell if the ohm issue is a real problem or not.

I'd say it's kind of a real problem right now. Are you able to manually lock in the ohms of your coils? Even then, you will have slight manufacturing differences between coils, so I'd really want a mod that reads my coils accurately or at least consistently, over time. How long has the problem been going on? What have you tried to fix it?

To the OP, sorry, I don't own that mod so don't have much feedback.

I don't have the T-Priv, but have a few other Smok mods. But if the T-Priv is like the others, something that may be helpful to you and @Coyote628 ......

Whenever the mod is turned on without an atty attached, when screwing on the atty (at room temp), it will ask if it is a "new coil" to which I respond with a "Y" whether it is "new" or not. If I have been using the mod and change tanks, I remove the old tank, set the wattage for the new tank, press the fire bar, then screw on the new tank resulting in the questions coming up. I can't say if doing this is necessary or beneficial, just what I have gotten in the habit of doing. Never really paid attention to or cared what the ohm readings show, just always gives me my satisfying vape.

I ordered one of these from MVS and should have it Saturday. But I'm finding very little in the way of information on this device using the search feature. Anyone have this mod and want to give their thoughts?

Watched a review yesterday, wish i would have saved the link for you.

From what I saw a pretty standard dual 18650 offering. LED lights that you can customize in various ways, usual SMOK software. Looks like you could fit a 24-25mm tank of your choice on top, believe the kit I saw comes with Big Baby Beast. Probably already knew maoat of that though.

What questions or concerns do you have in particular?

One of the best Mods, looks and functionality, that I have ever bought in the 5 years of vaping so far! Easy to use and a great color changing mod that is not tough at all on your battery. 2 18650's last awhile and I never get tired of it. Enjoy!

The problem was nothing more than me being cheap and trying to see how long a coil will last in this tank. It was super gunked and running at higher resistance. So two weeks is too long with thick sweet cheesecake flavored juice. Clean, new coil solved the issue
