@Edwardo , I'm jealous about your patience. My deepest respect. Thx for sharing your experience. Makes me more confident and showed me one more time that my unit is defective, too. I should be more patient. Perhaps. I'm just not getting the firm policy no matter how much bad luck they had.
Is there anybody with a black MV from the newest batch having the same black color tone on battery, wall adapter, lid and core? My reseller proposed me a silver Tcmv from 2014 and like I read on the thread, the silver models have the same aluminum silver tone on all parts... Should I give a second try on a silver model or wait on the updated batch from 2015 (for weeks or months probably)?
I remember someone wrote the black cores from 2014 have "sporadic power drop" more often than silver cores from same batch, but I'm not sure about that and can't find this post anymore.
I know I'll have to send the mighty in a second time for warranty. Probably a few more times until s&b implemented the new housing design in production. Not happy about that.
Some over-read I'm complaining also about s&b units build quality (not about the service).
Love both designs, s&b and Hermes, like some over-read, too.
I need a discret, working backup in the near future, so I'm just thinking to warranty my unit for a silver tcmv from 2014 or buying just a single black glass core from Hermes and send my defective core in later, because buying is always way faster than warranty
...
A general problem, not only Hermes suffers from that, so please don't feel offended again because I criticized beloved Hermes. I know Alfredo and Jose are working hard and that they are probably on Spannabis right now.
Better re-read my perhaps to hard and not very understandfull, sometimes little bit
ironical, but really objective criticism divided over several of my posts. Apart the vapor amount and quality caused due to the bad experience with my dead unit, of course, and one of the starting lines from my post where I said the MV is a joke. Apologized already for that. But let me explain this:
I said on the mighty thread I would never buy a S&B portable again if they where mobile phones. Because I'm disappointed of the build quality. Sadly there aren't much better mobile vapes out there, imo.
@JJ Cool F asked me what where about the MV if it where a mobile phone, too. This is how I wrote down post number #4270 on page 171 moved buy the mods into this thread, saying the MV is a joke and it would be like buying a mobile phone with essential parts missing. The rest of the discussion was deleted...
It wasn't to bash or troll or something, so please don't feel offended anymore. I'm nitpicking also in the post # 4270, so there isn't even one little negative thing I found on the MV so far I not mentioned there. Like I said, I apologized already.
Don't forget the quite long mighty vs. minivap comparison I wrote down before accusing me to not being able to judge build quality, simply because I own the wrong devices, after your opinion.
This is exactly what I do most of the time at work. Judge, document and report build quality of (electro-) mechanical parts, components and systems ...

Edit:
but let's get btt, I derailed the thread several times with my unit now. I would be thankfull if someone could answer the questions above and help me to love the MV like you do without waiting 2 months like
@lazylightning or @eduardo...
@Vapst
Would love to have a "mightyvap". It would be the perfect vape for me if I could only combine the advantages of boths.
But I don't even want to think about the ugly useless baby they would have if combining the drawbacks only of both units... Better have safer sex to prevent this case...
