The Punk 220W is the dual battery version of the single battery Punk 85W and like it's smaller brother is a real looker. The Steampunk design possibly makes both versions of the Punk amongst the best looking device's available. The device has some weight to it but it's that expensive reassuring weight you get with a very solid well made device. The Punk 85W i use sometimes when i'm out and about but for someone with small hands like me the 220W version is a bit on the large size to carry on the go. Both front and spine of the device tapers to meet the side panels which helps with comfort when using, it's not bad at all ergonomically apart from the size. Both sides of the device as a perspex covering through which you can see 2 different steampunk designs, one of these designs include 3 rather large LED's, the other houses the micro USB port towards the front. Although LED's don't sound like they fit into a steampunk design the raw way they are done helps them fit in and i think they look great. I received the Antique Brass version, the device is also available in Black, Antique Copper and 7-Colour, all versions look equally gorgeous. The front of the device houses the screen centrally, has a very nice round fire button at the top and up and down buttons towards the bottom, above the navigational buttons there is another button to control the LED's. The Spine of the device is featureless, the bottom is the battery door which has etched safety stamps, branding and venting. Finally moving to the top of the Punk 220W we have to one side a 510 plate with Gold plated, spring loaded 510. The Build quality of the Punk 220W like the 85W version is very impressive and there is no button or battery rattle whatsoever.

Using the Punk 220W
The battery door on the base of the Punk 220W is very good as it's held in place with both a catch and magnets so it's not going anywhere, the only thing is the door comes completely off so make sure you don't lose it, the Punk 220w takes dual 18650's and orientation is clearly marked. To turn the device on or off is 5 clicks of the fire button and pressing fire and down together locks the device but still allows the device to fire. All the information you need is on the screen and the display is nice and bright, top left we have the resistance, underneath this we have voltage (this changes to wattage in temp control), under this we have the preheat within a rectangle and beside this your mode within another rectangle. Going back to the top of the screen to the right of what's already been described is the wattage (this changes to temperature when using a temp control wire). Underneath this we have an elongated battery status bar with the status also being shown as a percentage. Finally bottom right is a square with an "M" inside, this means nothing is chosen but this can be changed to M1, M2 or M3, and are your memory slots. The user interface on the Punk 220W is really good, it has everything you need on a device yet no fancy menu system to enter simply move around the screen and make your changes. 3 clicks of the fire button highlights the resistance, from here simply use the left and right buttons to highlight different things, when you reach what you want to alter press the fire button then alter or scroll through the options it gives you before pressing fire again to set. Resistance you can lock or unlock, Preheat gives you the choice of, norm, hard, soft or user, if you pick user it brings up your 10 second curve that can be set (if curve is set, while vaping the curve graph is displayed). When choosing the mode it comes up with the choice of, KA, NI, TI, SS and TCR, KA is for Kanthal but forget that it just means you will be in wattage mode and your coil doesn't need to be Kanthal at all. Choosing one of your TC wires will obviously change the wattage display to temperature but now where it did display the volts displays wattage that can be altered for temp control. Finally we can highlight and select M to select or alter and then select one of your 3 memory slots. The device like i said has all the features yet altering or choosing anything can be done so quickly, the user interface has to get top marks.
