50w or higher tube mods??

[FinchX]

I've been looking around for about 3 hours now and every mod I find that offers 50w or higher is a box mod. I wouldn't have a problem with that except you've got to either recharge via USB or remove screws from the thing to open the battery compartment.

I found the Cloupor T5 and the smok BEC Pro. The T5 looks gigantic and you have to charge it with USB or remove the battery cover by taking out the screws, just like a typical box mod. The BEC Pro 50w seems to be better in that department, but from everything I'm reading, you control and adjust the thing using bluetooth and a smartphone app, which I find a bit ludicrous honestly.

I've found plenty of 20w and 30w tube mods that have the characteristics I'm wanting and even the new VAMO offers 35w...

I'm just looking for a typical tube mod, that you adjust like you do most mods (ie... not bluetooth) and that allows you to just quickly and easily swap out the batteries, that is a 50w device... Anyone know of a device fitting that criteria??

Thanks in advance

I have a smok bec pro. You do not have to use the bluetooth, 3 fast clicks to enter the menu and you can change anything.

I have had the same issue trying to find a tube mod over 30 watts. There is a Vamo 08 and 09 but that i found that are over 30 watts but it makes me nervous to buy one without any reviews out there to see if it is any good. Plus I am kinda picky when it comes to mods so I wanted to see the menu system before buying it.

Might be due to the mah ratings of a single battery. Most of the new box mods are dual or even triple. Even at 30w you can drain an 18650 with a quickness.

Yeah the reason all of these higher wattage mods are boxes is due to the fact that vaping at higher wattages requires 2-3 batteries.

The Yihi SX mini looks promising, though expensive right now. If you're cranking that thing at 50w, you'll have to replace the battery I imagine.

On average, how is the battery life in that mod?

Thanks everyone. I had kind of assumed (after looking through several box mods) that their ability to house multiple batteries would be highly beneficial, and was probably why most were box mods.

My main concern is more or less the battery life. Right now I'm just using standard mods and tanks... I'm at around 4volts on average with standard 18650 2000mah batteries that last me the majority of the day. But I chain vape and going into high watt devices and stepping up into batteries with higher amp ratings is going to be new to me, so I'm worried about the typical battery life. If I only have to unscrew that panel or compartment door once a day or preferably less, then I don't think I'd get overly sick of having to do it, at least until I bought more batteries and a 2nd mod so I could swap the two out while one was charging (if it offers usb charging of course).

Any of you have any boxes you're running at higher watts that could give some idea on battery life??

A dual battery mod is needed above 15w if you want good battery life... even a dual 18350 in a zmax v3 lasts nearly 3 times longer than a single 18650.

I'll pass on mods that need more than one battery ........ thanks just the same.

IMO safety trumps watts every time!

Personally, I like box mods but saw these 50+ watt tube mods the other day $76.95 Authentic SMOK BEC Pro Variable Voltage / Wattage APV Mod - 1*18650 / 4-12V / 6-50W / Bluetooth at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping and $27.34 Vamo V10 VV/VW Variable Voltage / Wattage APV Mod - 3.0W-55.0W / 3.0-7.4V / 1*18350/1*18650/2*18350 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping Just be sure to use the correct batteries with them, like the $6 Samsung 20amp 2500mAh 25R 18650 Samsung INR18650-25R 2500mAh High Discharge FLAT Top - Batteries - Batteries, Chargers, and PowerPax Carriers
