i recieved my xpv 30d about two weeks ago. My initial impressions were that is built very well, and could tell alot of thought went into designing it. I did not like the plastic they used for the clip, logo, and button surrounds though. It seemed rough and not a nice tactile feel. The abrasiveness has worn down some, and i can forsee that it will get smoother overtime so that is moot now. The other thing i found strange is the up/down wattage control is reverse of what i think it should be ... it's right to go down, and left to go up. I also wish the screen was on the same side as the button. But despite all this, it is solidly built, doesn't weigh too much, has a clip so it doesn't fall out of my pocket, doesn't roll around on the table, and looks nice. I think a black kayfun would look really good on it! So far my wattage use is only 7 - 10 with my coil at 1/16 at 8/9 wraps coming out at 2.5 ohms using bamboo wick... anything higher just seems too high. maybe it's my juice, wick, idk. So, i would've been more than fine with a 20d but whatever. All in all, i'm very happy with it.
