Well, fair point re OP, but in my personal experience (which, like a lot of folks', begins with Ego, Spinner or Twist types), it ain't in the least bit elegant in and of itself. It is indeed more elegant than a Vamo or similar, however. But then no mod that takes an 18650 is going to be elegant, really, they're big batteries. No, the firmware issue is not a big one, but the electronics one is IMO - mine doesn't detect ohms properly leading to burning (at least, that is what I think is happening, I don't have an engineering degree). If it was one atty, I'd say it was the atty's fault as ohms can vary, but it is consistently telling me that 1.8 ohm Evods are 2.2 ohms, 2.2 ohms are 3.1 ohms and so on. Unscrew it, re-screw it, and it comes up with a different arbitrary figure.

Any atty that won't work on my Evic works on everything else I own. I don't think I overtighten in general, otherwise it'd happen on everything else. So you could conclude that either I'm abusing my Evic for some reason, or it's especially sensitive to centre pins, or the o-ring support is indeed rubbish, or I have a duff one. I'm not in the habit of abusing £70(ish) items, especially when they're the most expensive bit of vaping kit I own. If you can do it without trying, doesn't that make it unfit for purpose?

That combined with the ohmage issue - I wouldn't really recommend it to anyone who likes simple, easy vaping. I just want to stick an Evod on it and vape, and it frequently (but not always) won't let me do it. I've become so frustrated with the thing, I often just revert back to my cheapo Spinners, which are not as good but are vastly more reliable. An Evic is not worth the risk or investment in my own personal experience, but like I say, when it works it's great. It produces improved vapour and TH over a Spinner, and if you want to get all techy, you can. Depends what you want to get out of it. For me, as soon as I find something I can afford that is better, it'll be consigned to occasional use.
