To be fair.....it was always gonna happen eventually, if you keep pushing your luck further and further, someone is gonna get bitch slapped.......OBS got away with it with the Bat mod.....Then Vaptio downright took the piss with the Super Bat and Wall Crawler mods.....boundaries were crossed....innocence was questioned....and when the Franchise Copyright Infringement Police (totally a thing)...heard about another multi-million dollar franchise about to get 'teabagged'....
This time around, it was old timers Vaporesso who were the culprits caught with their fingers in the copyright cookie jar, trying to sneak a cheeky little nibble of someone else's sweet biscuits.....or at the very least.....pilfer old Granny Hasbro's recipe...
'We've made a device for vaping, it can change its appearance and has a robotic design on the back, and right in the middle is a logo that looks strikingly similar to Optimus Prime’s mugshot......and we're not gonna give you a penny for it....that cool?'
And so it was......Vaporesso were taught a fair....and no doubt very valuable lesson...
"Assumption is indeed... the mother of all fuck-ups"

Welcome once more my voluptuous little vape bots (?) .....as is the norm at this point of my rambling meanderings you are more than likely left wondering what the hell I'm waffling on about....believe me...I ask myself the same question several times a day....I shall enlighten you all in good time....but for now, let me introduce you to a device that although now a couple of months old....went through a rather dramatic change in its infancy...as well as receiving a very hard slapped wrist....
Courtesy of one of the best suppliers I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with, Cvapor , I present to you, the Vaporesso Switcher Kit with NRG tank..
Looks remarkably like the Vaporesso Transformer which was revealed at the start of the year eh......maybe I should stop rubbing salt in that particular wound...not just yet though...I did say 'maybe'...
The Lowdown
The Switcher is a 220w, dual 18650 powered device which is available in two different versions - the LE kit with added LED lights (please don't)....or the standard version which thankfully...is the one I got. Both are kept in check by a slightly tweaked version of Vaporesso's epic OMNI board...this one being the 2.6 version, it has all the bells and whistles from its earlier versions as well as a few more additions on top....nothing too drastic...like I said...'tweaks'...This time around it features graphical virtual keys which change when you hit the fun button, on screen instructions on how to lock or power down, puff number statistics, and a high power protection function (to someone as technically minded as myself..that's just basically...words)
Now...like many others out there...I LOVE the OMNI board - in terms of value for money, I believe it's one of the best chips on the market. I still rock my first Revenger and that damned thing has never skipped a solitary heartbeat, in fact....due to its unmatched compactness and unflinching reliability, it is my go-to travel companion and has literally been around the world with me....However....'compact'...the Switcher is not.
Ooooh she's a portly beast alright, but there's a very good reason for that, and that reason is exactly why it was called the Transformer.....and is now instead called the Switcher.......(impending lawsuits aside).
You see, the Switcher's USP, is that it quite likes.....to get it's kit off....
Simply flip open the bottom battery door......
Pull down on the outer sleeve......
And there she stands...as naked as the day she was born.....(or manufactured....even....)
Wit-woo......
Raising the bar in terms of pedaling robot porn......
I'm not even sorry.....
Of course this isn't particularly a new idea, changing side panels to suit your matchy-matchy mood is something found on lots of devices these days, but I don't think anything else wears something interchangeable that's quite so.....'armor-ish'....And then there's the available choices....you have a set for the LE version.....
Frankly....quite hideous...and then the choices for the standard version...
Frankly......boring (yawn).....I mean I get it, it was always meant to be the Transformer, so stick with bright lights, loud colours and don't move away from the whole robotic theme....but it's not the Transformer anymore...it's the Switcher, and it's 'thing' is no longer being a robot that changes its appearance, it's now just a mod that can change its blouse - so make some of them a bit different, make some a bit classy, stick some brushed stainless and tan leather in there, a bit of carbon fibre with black leather on a gunmetal background...and change that fucking god awful circuit board design on the back panel...not a fan of that...like...at all...
Appearances aside, some people might still dig that, taste is entirely subjective as we know full well, so...we'll overlook that and crack...the fuck on....because the rest of it....is actually rather good.
One thing that Vaporesso absolutely excels at is the 'user friendly' aspect of the OMNI board. You will never need to look at the manual to know how to drive it, which obviously for me and my technical disability...is a massive bonus. You have everything you need to know on the large front screen, and although it might seem a little 'medieval' in comparison to today's full colour screens....it's enough.
The actual hand feel of the Switcher is well above average, both sides are coated in a 'rubbery' finish which gives excellent grip...
Couple that with the sheer girth of the thing and what you have is a very obvious sexual innuendo, which I feel personally.....I have already kicked the arse out of.....it feels good...let's leave it at that...
