I think it's pretty impressive from a mod that caught my attention with a slick paint job. Unless the new wears off and leaves an ugly scab ... this mod is probably my ticket to a vacation from new arrivalitis. I can see this'n carrying me through 2015.
To weigh in on the built in battery debacle: I decided not to let my investment in batteries and chargers keep me from thoroughly enjoying this Evic VT. Yes, I will have two eventually and when I do, I won't need to carry extra batteries and a charger on road trips - a microusb cable packs easier.
I was thinking the same thing. Living in south florida, I take the family (though they are all teenagers, one of which is 18) to disney once a month. When I go on the weekend trip, my wife makes fun of me because I have to bring 3 batteries, my charger and a lighter plug adapter for the charger. With this mod, I won't need any of it. The battery is big enough to last me the 3 hour car ride, and all day at the park. Then all i need to do is plug in the usb cable while I sleep and I'm good to go for the next day. Add to that, its small enough to put in my pocket while in the park for those quick vapes while everyone is at the bathroom. I used to take my provari, take off the extension tube and use a smaller battery to keep in my pocket but then I always worried about losing a mod I paid almost $200 for. At least, this is small enough to fit in my pocket, and if I were happen to lose it, though I wouldn't be happy, Id only be out $60 instead of the $200 plus battery that I paid for my SXmini m class
Though I like the paint job, the thing that caught my eye for this was the Titanium mode. It works awesome and really saves your battery. It takes half the watts to achieve the same temperature as the nickel coils. Thats probably why my battery is lasting so long. With a nickel coil, to achieve the 480degrees I have it set at, it hovers between 25-30 watts but with the titanium coil, it hovers around 15 watts to achieve the same temperature. and the flavor and vapor seems to be pretty even. I really hope yihi does an update to use Ti in the sxmini
