I had the pioneer. It was not as fancy and a bit touchy but I really liked the vapor production. It was dropped once and never worked again. This looks like a much better version. couldn't control temp or wats. It looked pretty but I wasn't satisfied. This looks like a much better device. I am not a fan of SMOK but I might have to look into this. wouldn't mind seeing a month review. Thanks.Oh, you can pick up pipe stands that will work for most pipes all over ebay and amazon. I don't know of a company that makes there own. The stands I have seen have all been generic. They are nice looking though.
