Anyone thinking about picking this up? Looks pretty crazy as far as its capabilities, but i'm wondering how much of it is useful and how much is just gimmicky.
If you haven't seen it, it's basically like a pen-style eVic:
I really like the clean design and the joystick controller is really interesting. Uses 16340 style batteries -- comes with its own cells, but the site says AW IMR 16340s are acceptable.
Highlights/Description:
- Variable Voltage/Wattage ecig with 4 on-board step up/step down vaping profiles in the range of 3V to 6V or 4W to 15W
- Real time monitoring of battery levels, device temperature, atomiser resistance, vaping profile amplitude on board
- Free MiD PC Interface connectivity to retrieve device information, firmware updates, create user name for your device, retrieve number of puffs
- Create and save arbitrary vaping profiles with a rich editor in all kinds of waveforms in voltage or wattage, etc (see xcel list for details).
- Execution of arbitrary vaping profiles as a flat profile using the first voltage or wattage point of the profile you created on your timeline for a duration of your choice up to 12 seconds
- Execution of arbitrary vaping profiles in a single LED colour and single HSL (hue, saturation, luminosity)
- All the safety feature such as reverse battery protection, short-circuit protection, overpower and under power protection, thermal monitoring etc (see xcel list for details)

at $145 for the kit, it's way more expensive than a lot of mods, and exorbitantly expensive if you consider the size of the mod compared to other small PV's.
