Back in 2012 i recall consistently failing to operate my 1st VaporGenie Classic correctly, which i finally gave away after a week of multiple combustion incidents (i'm a cannabis dry flowers vaporist)... The year after i tried again but this time with a firm intent to adapt it until i find it manageable, which required a fair bit of involvement (*). In any case no such thing would have been easily transposed to glass, so i can't comment on the VGV except to state what's already obvious: it provides eye-contact on the flame(s), yet i'd break it in no time.
My Vector KGM Arsenal which is now over 2 years old ain't featured with double converging blue flames but it sure proved being the most reliable of all right-angle models within my reach so far. Both the Apollo and IronFist currently offer converging flames though i yet got to evaluate the later while my new Apollo appears to require more frequent refills. Lucky me, a switch to custom-made Full-Metal VG tops solved double-flame issues.

Any first time hints (probably on what not to do)?
The original VG ritual mentions that we must not allow a flame's tip to ever touch anything (and i concur!), it's heat from the corona (incl. that of extra-hot exhaust gases from clean-burning butane) which empowers the pipe by transforming radiative/convective energy vectors into something more practical, provided the owner has lungs agile & healthy enough to acquire the operator skills this requires in its genuine state...
