so i have been asked a few times what i want for my upcoming birthday. at first i was going to go with the zombie splatter flawless tugboat mech mod/rda combo, BUT flawless decided to have a 50% off sale on Monday so i got it myself
i have been wanting to get a nice box mod for quite some time, but cant really decide on one. my main thing is i'm looking to get a dual 18650 device, for longevity.
right now i'm bouncing back and forth between the iPV4 and the Sigelei 150w. i am also open to using an unregulated box mod, although i don't have much knowledge of those - specifically the difference between parallel and series.
on one hand i like the idea of having the ability to run temperature control, although i don't know how much i would really use it. i also like the aesthetic look of the sigelei 150w.
who owns one of, or both, of these devices? which do you prefer? what box mod would you suggest instead of these?
price range, below $200 is ideal.
cheers!
Any recommendations for upgrading? I have a awesome custom 18650 parallel box, infinite stingray and atomo. My friend has a paragon midnight v2 and flawless tug combo. Any of them a keeper? I'm wanting to get a harder hitting device and don't mind going authentic. Any advice would be greatly appreciated?
If anyone is on the fence about buying a Sigelei 150w... BUY IT.
This thing has been great so far. Absolutely no problems and I like it much much much better than my Hana Modz DNA 40. For $110, it's as good or better. All the problems other people have had with this thing, I have experienced none of them. I was vaping for four days with a .2 ohm build on the Doge v2 running between 60w-80w and it still had 50% battery life. The performance is ridiculous, especially for it's price tag. I'm so happy I didn't waste money by over paying for a VaporShark or Vapor Flask. Just because something is more expensive, it doesn't mean that it is better...
Hello everyone,
I'm looking to get a new vv/vw device, I have a 50w Istick which has worked fine, but i am looking to upgrade. I mainly vape on my tobecco kayfun v4 clones so sub ohming is not a main concern for me. I'm thinking of getting a rdna40 from vaporshark since they dropped the price. Anyone out there have any suggestions or would the rdna40 be a good pickup?
Thanks in advance
So I was doing some research on what my next mod will be for my new sub ohm tank with its .25 ohm coil and my decision was originally between a Sigelei 150 and a Smaug 150w but then I went to Luxyoun's website and saw the Luxyoun Mac 150 Watt. I thought for sure I would have to go with a box mod to get over 100 watts, which I originally hated the idea of because I would much rather have a cylinder mod. I can't find almost any information on this device so its hard to decide whether to get it or not. I think cylinder mods look wayy better than box mods and are way easier to carry and feel better to hold so this might be the perfect mod for me. It uses one 26650 battery so there will be a long battery life and a high amp rating unlike a 18650 cylinder mod. I know it will be thicker than a 18650 cylinder mod but I'm fine with that over a box mod. Does anyone know of any cons about this mod? If you know anything about this device please post because I can't find a single review on it. Thanks!!

then....it finally happened /: i lost my Sigelei 150W with my Royal Hunter i had just purchased recently. It hurts. The first thing that goes through my mind when i wake up, how could i be so stupid..
Anyways. Life continues, with or without it.
Now what is a Box Mod that compares to the Sigelei 150W where i can adjust it by wattage that'll perform as good and last as long. I use RDA's & Tanks of all kinds on it and need something that ill enjoy everyday. Must be my go to, when i dont feel like using my mechanicals.
I feel liked I looked everywhere on this forum I can't find a sigelei 150w thread or discussion or anything. Can any one point me in the right direction?
An online vape shop here at Greece at the description for dotBox Dual Mech mod says"
"Switch to Parallel Mode for longer Vaping time and exceptional power from two 18650 batteries".
The dotbox dual mech has the option to select series or parallel connection via a switch.
I send them a email that this doesn't apply (for the same power output always),for example 0.1 ohm coil in parallel connection and 0.4 ohm coil in series connection.
Two batteries in series provide the same amount of watt hours a parallel connection does.
The vapeshop replied and told me that the description is copy and paste from Dotmod.com
Indeed.
QUOTE from dotBox Dual Mech - dotmodretail
"Last Longer. Switch to Parallel Mode for longer Vaping time and exceptional power from two 18650 batteries".
The vape shop also said that the voltage sag at parallel connection is spread out over the two batteries in Parallel.Thus more vaping time than using a series connection.
Okey I made the calculations for voltage sag using for example two Sony VTC5A 18650 batteries with a DC Internal Resistance = 18.6mOhms (0.018 ohm).
I got the same voltage sag 0.378 V in both configurations (0.1 build in parallel-0.4 build in series).
Am i correct or am I missing something?(i'll send to the vape shop the link for this thread so they can read your opinions because i think they believe i'm talking bulls..t!
Imgur version of post with all charts and analysis he imgur.com/a/vc6hvEr
Eleaft iStick Pico 75 - TC bang for buck that is remarkable - Temperature Control Testing ResultsArctic Fox Firmware 190624 Stock SS316 Profile : Vaping
The attached is the first of 7 charts/states tested and does not represent overall performance - see IMGUR or Reddit for full report and analysis, or the TLDR summary. See a full list of mods tested so far, at the bottom of the full post for comparison.
TLDR: I bought this little mod for merely $15 bucks in a sale, and yet other than one (repeatedly tested) very different outcome for a (rarely realistic) completely dry MTL coil, it performs very well as a temperature control device, with good power (unless youre a very high mass dual coil vaper, in which case you need a dual cell mod), tight and accurate temperature control that is arguably largely comparable to DNA in most states (see imgur.com/a/EOL9hRE for current DNA series comparison). Its hard to beat in terms of price for performance...lets see how the stock firmware compares in an upcoming test. This Arctic Fox firmware provides a lot of the functionality of a DNA device, its free, and its compatible with a lot of Eleaf, Wismec and Joyetech mods! More testing required to see if it holds up across that range.
Last week I returned my tugboat box mod to Flawless in exchange for a new because of the slight paint coming off on the corners. Now its on its way back, is there anything I can add to the tugboat to prevent the paint to chip off or ware off? Anything? Any help would be appreciate it!
I ordered a tugboat box mod and i got a email saying that it was completed 2 days ago and no email about trackng number nor any news on the status of it besides complete. Anyone ever experience this with flawless vape shop? Any ideas? i called their warehouse but not much help didn't really tell me anything bout my package.
