SMOk SID is great mod, reasonably priced. You will have to get batteries and a charger. You wont necessarily have to get protected batteries due to the on board protections of the device. I haven't owned a VV/VW big battery mod so you may need to do some research on that. Hopefully this post will open up the conversation and save you time. lol :toast:

I suggest that you get the Vamo V5 Steel with a 510 to 510 sealed adapter so that your Kangers don't leak into the Vamo. These adapters are a pain to use if you plan on using CE4 style attys, however.

Adapter is available here:
510 to 510 (sealed)

Vamo is also at a good price at this store.

If you plan on getting involved with RBAs then you will need a mechanical mod since most electronic mods will not work on coils less than 1.5ohms.

The batteries and charger I recommend. I love my SID and ARO combo!

I've been using a Vamo with my Kangers. I use an airflow adapter between the Vamo and the Kangers.

Alternatively, if you're happy with a 3.7 V continuous, I suggest that you get yourself a good mech mod and pick up Panasonic 18650s and a good charger. Life becomes simple and a world of RBA's open up to you as well.

If you really want to to bump up the wattage on a mech then consider the Kick by Evolv. Their new Kicks do 5 - 15 W! :ohmy: But even their older ones do 10W. You probably won't need more than that anyway.

If you want variable voltage and/or variable wattage, my $100-or-less recommendations would be the Sigelei Zmax v3 ($42) or the iTaste MVP2 ($40-$60). My $100-or-more recommendation would be to save for a ProVari.

+1
I looked into alternatives to the provari because they definitely are RIDICULOUSLY expensive haha. That said I have zero buyers remorse. I got the full sized one in silver and two 18490 batteries and its great. I already had a good charger for those batteries, but its really awesome. Only complaint is that the button doesn't have much positive feedback and you have to press it pretty firmly. beyond that, the one button menu system doesn't make it difficult or complicated at all
