    I can understand people not liking it but whenever there's an option for external charging I'll always take that option.

    As much as I like the iSticks it makes no sense for me to get one when this is available. It's only slightly chunkier, has removable battery, 75w, YiHi board and silicone sleeves available.
    I'll wait until the resistance lock is confirmed fixed though.

    Only dual battery mod I have is the Vapor Flask...USB charging works just fine on it, but I'd expect it to...

    I guess I just worry about the batteries getting charged at different rates. I follow the whole "marry the batteries with the mod" tip and alternate the battery positions in the mod battery tray, but not 100% confident of the charging boards in mods. Also, do the mod charging boards have charging shutoff when the batteries are full?

    In parallel they supposedly charge even naturally, it series charging that can cause problems.

    I do, too (marry the batteries)...I trust that Evolv has gotten this correct...

    The VF does...I put a meter on it and it shuts off when the light turns green. So do both my VS rDNA30/rDNA40 and my iStick 50...

    Thanks Rick and Siam! I've avoided usb charging dual battery mods until now just because I wasn't sure how well it worked.

    I'll still use external charging when available, but won't feel I have to avoid taking my dual battery (parallel) mods when I travel.

    I agree on this, this type of port just put me off of the buyer's list. For my next single 18650 device, it has to have a USB charging port. Reason is I usually vape at 30W and a single 18650 does not last me an entire day at work. Since my phone is also using a usb charging port, I always have a cable next to me, at the office, at home, in my bike..

    Switching battery is also important, way more convenient then internal battery IMO.

    15:20 I think it's locking the resistance but just updating the resistance as it's fired.
