I've been using the Encom Voidray I won in a contest here from Heaven Gifts for about a week now and wanted to give my impressions.
Packaged in an unimpressive cardboard box is the device, instruction manual and usb charging cord. When I took it out of the box my first thought was,, this is plastic!!! Cheap plastic! It's supposed to be some aero-space material and I will say it's pretty tough, I've dropped it a couple times, but I'm used to stainless steel and other much more substantial-feeling materials in my mods.
It's nice looking, the white is pearlescent and I like the contrasting color. It does what I need it to do but I don't vape much over 30 watts and I don't TC so can't speak to that. One other thing I noticed right off is that there are no air channels on the connector but it hasn't been a problem at all. I've used Kanger subtanks, Melo and Griffin tanks on it with no issues.
There is one serious design flaw, IMO. The battery is held in a sleeve and slides into the device. There's a button on the side of it that ejects the battery. Many times I've hit that button (not paying attention and thinking I was taking a hit) and ejected the battery. Many times I've put the thing in the front pocket of my jeans and (you guessed it) ejected the battery. Terrible place to put the eject button.
Another interesting thing about it is that if it's idle for a certain period of time ( I haven't timed it but it seems to be about an hour if I had to guess) it'll shut off. It's annoying to me. If I want it off I'll turn it off. It will ask "new or same" atomizer and I like that feature. It also reads the ohms of my coils pretty accurately. It's SUPER light because of the material it's made of, fits nicely in my pocket at work.
Overall impression: I'm a little glad I didn't pay for it. It's cheap enough at $34.90 at Heaven Gifts but I think there are better designed pocket mods out there for the money. That eject button is the worst and I don't like the auto-shut off feature.
I want to say thank you to Heaven Gifts for having these contests. It's a great way for us all to get to know the products they carry.

I completely understand pure laziness, that's why I use SS in my build decks ... build it once and just rewick it for MONTHS. For the lazy, this is an ideal solution!
