I don't think it'll be quite the learning curve you're expecting. If you can count to five "elephants"*, you'll do fine.
Remember: There is no indication of when the load is heated to a specific temperature, unlike the DV or Anvil.
Read the instruction booklet. It goes into detail on how to get the best from the device as well as giving tips on the ideal flame size.
It's use is all down to you counting seconds. You'll also want to use the torch that comes with the bundle - it really is a great size torch to use.
The way I use mine is two counts of five seconds with a small break in-between, before taking the first inhale. I then judge how long I want the next (single) heat cycle to be - if I want more heat, it's 5 seconds. If I'm happy: four. Don't want as much heat : three seconds. Then I'll repeat until I feel it's done. Get the idea? I also decide when the bowl is spent by the flavour.
Learn, have fun, and don't be afraid to tweek it to suit
your personal style.
This is a beguiling device which will charm you into revealing it's secrets
*A word that takes one second to say. Some people prefer "Mississippi", or "one-thousand" instead.
