You know it's too bad that the Flask got 2 big black eyes because of the screen glitches and battery issues that many got stuck with. But I got my Flask at the beginning of this year and all I can say is I absolutely love it. But I've had none of those issues that others had, so my experience has been amazing. As it should have been for everyone. This thing is awesome with Kanthal but I only use nickel, tempered nickel mind you

I haven't used anything but nickel on my Flask for months. It preforms flawlessly with temp protection like it should. There was a learning curve the first few weeks for sure, but once I knew which atty's to use and ones to avoid and learned about tempered nickel, I've never looked back.
If they can start getting
devices out that don't have those quality control issues, which from what I'm reading they're well on their way. I would recommend the Flask and Nickel hands down. As you can tell, I'm crazy in love with my Flask.
I truly wish others wouldn't have had the glitchey issues they had so they could have experienced the Flask the way I have. It's truly a beautiful
device with what I think is amazing tech. And I don't consider myself a fan boy, just someone who's had a great experience and likes to share. And it's been fun as hell to learn along the way.
