Deciding between the LP and the V5. I mostly vape flower, but probably go through about 1g per month of wax/sauce/shatter or some other form of concentrate. For a while I've mostly been using an electronic nectar collector style device, but I never would have bought it if I new I'd need to replace the coil so often. From what I've read, the V5 may never need anything replaced as long as I keep it clean. Would you say that's the same for the Lighting Pen? About how many sessions should be expected before anything needs replacing?
I couldn't figure out what type of batteries the LP takes. Is the battery user replicable? If so, what type does it use? If not, about how many sessions before needing to recharge on average?
I usually to through about 1-2 grains of rice sized dabs each session, and from what I read here on FC, it sounds like most people only load up about a 1/2 grain of rice sized dabs in the lightning pen. So that is one reason I'm thinking maybe I should go for the v5. But I don't already have a box mod, so the whole set up will probably cost around twice as much if I get a V5. I also really don't like "messing" with electronics, such as having to figure out how to modify a mod for AF, and then run through all sorts of tests to figure stuff out to eventually be good at getting hits, so that makes me lean more towards the Lightning Pen.
It will all be for home use, but I still prefer something not tethered to the wall or anything bulky.
If I end up getting the V5, I noticed they sell a Pico 2 with autofire added to it, is it worth paying $65 for their version with the autofire? Since I've never used a mod for anything, I don't really understand the importance of that. Should I assume that if I get the V5 with their version of the Pico2 that there won't be that big of a learning curve to use it properly?
