4nine vs Le Petit Gros V2 - opinions?

[ZacUnknown69]

I'm looking to get my first mechanical rda, but stuck between two mods. Regardless of which mod I get, I'm getting a Hobo V2 rda. I want a small, stylish vape - these fit my preferences perfectly. So based on your knowledge, what's better? 4nine or the Le Petit Gros V2?

4nine is at smallest 49 millimeters while the LPG is 56 millimeters, but with 4nine, you are able to use all 4 battery types, 18350, 18490, 18500 and 18650 while as LPG v2 uses only 18350, which can be an issue with rebuildables + the atty shroud might be an issue with attys with lower airholes restricting the air allowed to cool down the coils.

Personally I would get a 4nine in either copper, brass or stainless steel, because it can use a wider variety of batteries, but the button isn't the best one in a 4nine.

TL;DR: If you want to use a wider variety of coil resistances and possibly sub-ohm, get the 4nine.

If you are interested in a small but not as powerful setup, get the LPG.

I'm trying to say here that you can not subohm with a 18350 battery, but you can with a 18490, 18500 or a 18650 battery, as they have higher amp limits.

Yeah but the LPG will give you a overall smaller dimension due to the recessed hybrid 510.

The 4nine is my absolute favorite mech. I have been eyeballin the Le Petit Gros also. The 4nine is not a screw any atty in and it works flawlessly mech. It works best with attys that have adjustable positive pins. I have both a copper authentic and 3 infinite close. The clones are actually 52mm instead of 49mm. This can cause the button to have a long travel which makes it not so nice. I have mine with as short as button travel as possible and It is the smoothest throw I have ever had (after progressive grit polishing and being broken in). When tweaked the 4nine is in great. If size is your main concern an authentic 4nine is about the smallest you can easily get. There are some that are smaller but they are not easy to find.

I can't speak to the Le Petit but I've played with a 4nine before getting rid of it; it was a darned good little mod, but the 510 connection was kind of a nightmare with some attys. If the atty had a long connection, it could cause it to auto-fire. If it was short, it might not want to fire at all. There's now a newer version which I believes fixes that, and would make it a pretty great choice -- but I'd avoid the v1 unless you know for sure your atty will work with it.

Lpg, just for the reason that the 4nine button is not nearly as good as in lpg
