I have reached out to the retailer I purchased it from for now.
Angus Enhanced

Agreed. Issue is that Arizer is, as a company, one of the OG's in the community and YLL is one of the young contenders. Add to that the "melting cooling unit" problems with the Angus 1.0 and you get to where we are today. Personally I don't understand why vape "influnencers" aren't recommending the AE along with the Mighty and Solo III, other than actual company size, and support issues that creates, I'm finding YLL's devices to be every bit as nice and their vapor every bit as tasty as Arizer's and SB's.

Well we can’t compare vapes in this threads…but just point this: i tried the solo 2, mighty, and mighty +
The AE can stand he flavor much more time than that vapes ime…. Recently i gave to try the AE to a friend who had one of that vapes (the most famous one) and he noticed along the session the flavor is better and for a longer time (and, with better high). He sold the vape and go back to combustion some time ago because the popcorn taste after a few minutes using 0,25g
This vape is not much known, but the ones I recommended it (considering what they were looking for, of course) just love it.
Actually if i want to vape at home i use to vape with a butane one, but if I want a long session or I meet friends… the angus is the way to replicate/compete with their joints…or satiate me the same time they finish their joints

It’s very hard not to appear biased as a retailer but the Enhanced is just such a good value! It’s been very underrated for sure.
There’s definitely more to come from Mike and YLLvape
Yeah, I think that there were also some off smells that some people experienced with some of the original model, which I never experienced, but some big FC influencers did. Plus an unfortunate incident where YLL was accused of faking or having counterfeit ECC logo by a now FC staff member. Which led to YLL posting their certificate that could be independently verified on the ECC site.
And I don't know the details, but VGoodiez also stopped carrying the Angus, which would make many experienced vapers concerned considering VGoodiez' we'll-earned reputation. But that may have nothing to do with the vapes themselves.
I'd personally take the AE over any other battery powered session vape option. I'm a sucker for halogen flavor. And great price point for the quality too. But that's just me. Totally understand that there are some things especially in that original Angus thread that might scare people off, tho also feel that YLL was not always given a fair shake there (which in full disclosure got me banned from that thread, which was fair. I had been warned.)
That's interesting, I didn't have an issue with the CU on mine but it was an early one, so maybe tighter specifications before they were manufactured in larger quantities. Tough to say...

I had my eye on the AE for some time but feel less inclined to pull the trigger now that I own the latest Solo as a session vape. However, I still want to experience the halogen signature so I've got a build from @Vaporooni on the way (see this thread). Excited for that. It's not super portable (other than with a powerbank) but it seems nice. 
Not ruling out the AE one day. The kit looks really nice.

Can I ask AE owners what usb-C charger they are using to charge the batteries in the device? Not external charger, what wall plug brand/rating etc.
I’m loving the AE but it will not charge the batteries internally. I have two sets of 18650’s and I’m currently having to charge them in an iSpire wand (I don’t own an external charger).
My retailer is fantastic and has asked for the unit back to test/potentially replace so I am going to return it today.
I’ve tried a ton of different wall plugs / cables and none work. Wondering if anyone else has expeirenced “fussiness” charging this device with certain USB plugs.
Cheers.

A LG phone charger block with a usba to usbc cable. Rated at 5.0v/1.8a. I use it for all my usbc charging needs.

it does not come with wall charger. i bought a usb-a to usb-c wall charger - 18 watt, 3 amp fast charger type for $10 from amazon. after first charge, it charges with 1 hour if batteries contains about 20% charge left.
the ae comes with a good usb-a to usb-c cord.
secret- get match pair of molicel p28a flat top li-on batteries. high quality batteries are need for the AE they need higher rated continuous discharge amps to perform well.

So nothing super special then? I’ve tried a ton of 5w/10w usb A and C chargers and never managed to get it to take any charge.
I have tried a charger rated the same. I have tried the usb that was included and a few others but no joy. I am using p28a’s in it.
Cheers.

This is what I wanted to hear. Thanks. I have tried both an iPad (usb c-c) charger and my steam deck charger and neither work. I’m just worried my retailer (as good as they are) will say it charges fine for them and is a “me” issue.

Hi everyone, thinking of getting an AE and hopefully someone will know the answer to my question. What is the difference between the USB-c charging cable and USB-c programming cable? I mean it can be a specialty cable, or can it?

It is a specialty cable to use the software and change the temps. You can’t do it without it (or, at least, with a normal one)

Thank you for your quick response. I guess I'll add it to the cart.

Buy a external battery charger, best way to always have spares ready for next round of bowls.

I struggle with dexterity and that’s not to say I can’t change batteries, but I tend to scrape them/damage them when swapping them in and out of a device all the time. I also don’t like having them exposed all the time.
The first thing I check when buying a new device is that it supports internal charging. The AE was stated to so I purchased it.
My retailer has the unit back and has said it’s charging but “too slowly” so has reached out to YLL. Not sure what they will advise at this stage. Purchased two weeks ago and only had ~10 sessions on it! Rather frustrating
