Just opened up my Alpha... It's beautiful. Way to go, Underdog! Now if I can figure out how to post pictures on here you all can see it. If not, catch me on reddit.
Its a Samsung and it says 2 amps on the back, ill try with a different charger when I get home, but it's the same one I use for my phone. Should I PM you the results?
Got an email that mine has been delivered. Now I just gotta wait till I get home. Restaurant life has it's advantages, but getting home at a reasonable time when you have a new toy waiting for you is not one of them.
Love my Mi3 it's my DD when I'm outta my house. Such a great heating system. If I didn't just grab Pipes new IH and I'm trying to hop on the UDA train this next drop, I would be jumping on this new Zion M. Unfortunately, I do have to pay for other things in my life, so the Zion M will have to...

@Shit Snacks yup the heater screen area. I've tried with a toothpick from SBL couldn't get a lot of it out. Had ok results with cotton swabs. Im going to try blowing in the air intake though, I hadn't thought of that before. Just a nuisance, doesn't seem to affect the vapor quality.
Does anyone have any good tips or suggestions on how to clean the heater on the Mi3? I have little bits of material stuck between the bottom screen and the glass walls.
