I like it enough to have bought several spares [emoji1] Just need to number them yet
Same here. 2 potatoes, 3 pods and rba for each of them.
Lock and load.

Must admit the 0.6 coil was used for one tank, then switched to the rba never looked back.Jowett are people finding the stock coils. the 0.6 lasted about a week and the 1.4 a matter of three days with some 50/50 juice so now having to use the rba as I can't see any point in buying more coils right now
exactly all thisLittle real-life update after using the Pasito for about 5 weeks, two of them abroad in the distant country side in a faraway land.
Would I buy it again (I have two, several pods and RBAs)? Yes I would. Absolutely. It's brilliant considering its price, but of course it's not perfect.
First off, the stock coils are rubbish (the MTL ones, haven't used the DL coils). They last 2 days at best before tasting off. RBAs are the way to go. Yes they are a bit finicky but any MTL'er should be able to build them without losing too much hair about it. The reward is better taste, more longevity, and otherwise the same ease of use as stock coils (if you've got a bag of them coiled and wicked for your journey). And the taste this bugger can produce is rather impressive.
3ml capacity and the battery life are good for about 3/4 of a day (for me personally). If you've got a second one, that's the day covered. And they go easily in the shirt pocket due to the light weight. Alternatively, stick a charger in for half an hour and thanks to USB-C it's up and running for the rest of the day.
One of my Pasitos had a few drops on rocks and hard places Still functioning just fine. And it doesn't bother me that it looks the part now, since it was cheap. It's a real beater for out and about. Which is exactly what I wanted it to be.
But it does have downsides, which can get a bit annoying. There's the refilling, which is really tedious (with RBA even more so than with stock MTL coils).
Then there's a leaking issue (depending on the pod, which aren't consistent)... If it starts pissing out of the pod (through the bottom; o-rings could be a notch bigger), it will run into the device (there are tiny gaps on the sides) and eventually sweat out of the bottom of the device. This is *really* annoying. Had it with only one of four pods, but still. The other pods had no problems with leaking at all.
Talking about inconsistent pods... the airflow slider isn't consistent between them either. Some can go pretty tight, some are pretty loose. Hit and miss.
All in all it's not a high end device, obviously. But it's cheap, light, compact, can produce fantastic taste and is recharged in no time at all. Perfect for journeys, IMHO.

In fairness I’ve o my tried the stocks once - the RBA is far more meI found that the 1.4's last way longer ... so I guess the conclusion is that they are inconsistent. The 1.4 I'm vaping on now is 2 weeks old, although I'm not using it 24/7
