...As for my opinion, (just to add viewpoints to the many valid and interesting ones here),we all know that everything that comes out is hyped to be the FINAL solution to all of our vaping problems. Remember when clearomizers were going to change everything? That lasted until we all ordered them and began cutting wicks, running to the supermarket for PTB's,attaching giant 5 and 10 mil tanks to them,and so on.
That being said, everytime I buy another mod , the ali, reo, old goat,juice box, and soon the eclipse, I think of the 400 bucks a month my wife and I spent on analogs EVERY MONTH FOR YEARS AND YEARS, this latest 300 buck venture is less than a drop in the bucket.
The reason I dont wait for reviews before deciding what to get is because what someone says is the greatest thing since the wheel, may not be right for me (personal likes and dislikes). My hope, like yours, is that the next release will be the perfect solution to all the downfalls of previous items available.
Anyway, I enjoy reading all your comments pro or con, supportive or critical.
...Take care...
