Hi everyone! As years go by I collect tons of things that are becoming out of use. Now and then I remember I have them and take them for a spin, but I've been thinking of revamping my vaping gear, less is more!

The most used outfit at home is an iTaste MVP v2 with a rebuildable on top: a Kayfun (I like it very little, see another thread), a Fogger V4 (I like this a lot with a 1.6 double coil) or a Terminator V1 when I'm in the mood for tinkering. Out are the mechs except for a sub ohm build on the Trident clone (works like a charm), out is the SVD and the Vamo V3 (too long).

For going out I usually keep my 18350 eVic or SLB eGo VV on a lanyard with something light on top: iClear 30 or Vapeonly BCC work great. No Kangers or Aspires, can't get a decent vape out of them no matter what, I passed them on to my husband that doesn't rebuild.

To replace the pieces sent away I'm thinking of a dna 30 box mod with replaceable batteries that will do sub ohms, maybe a Russian instead of the Kayfun, what about the new iGo W7 as a rebuildable and some light Innokin CLK to replace the SLB. A Supreme head to replace the eVic perhaps?

I know: Get a Provari or a REO. No, thank you.

What gear works for you is a personal decision and everyone is going to make different choices.

My go-to device is a Reo Grand with a Cyclone set up with dual coils and rayon. I have a RM2 and I use that for single coil setups but it's pretty much a spare right now. I find dual coils do it for me. It's very easy to put in my pants pocket and loves a car ride :). My second favorite toppers are split between a Aqua RBA and a Trident clone run with dual coils. I use them on either a K100 or a Nemesis. I also like my AGA-T with SS mesh for at home.

For spares I have a couple of mech mods, a 900 Twist and a 1300 Spinner and some cartos and clearos from when I used to use those.

Once in a while I think about the high power regulated devices, but so far that hasn't gone anywhere and I doubt that will change anytime soon.

Good luck with whatever you decide to get.

The best part of having excess gear is selling it or giving it away to those that are new.

I usually give them away to new vapers. With the dollar so high and customs closed is hard for people to get decent equipment except crap sold by local retailers. I'll go on investigating, thanks!

If you're looking for a "less is more" DNA, may I recommend the Vaporshark? I know you mentioned replaceable battery, but honestly with the VS not being able to replace the battery on your own is not that big a deal. I get ~2.5 days of use from mine. It is fast becoming my second favorite mod (Behind my Slug :) ). Works great with my Ehpro Kayfun clone, so I see no reason why it wouldn't work great with a Russian.

Anyways, just something to think about....
