It depends on what you want it to do. If you really want a 200 watt mod to blow huge cloud, then buying a 60 watt mod won't help you. If you stay under 50 watts all the time, as I usually do, the 60 watt mod will be perfectly fine. Mods vary in price for a number of reasons. A big one is the brand name. Some companies have a reputation for quality and can charge more, even if the actual product is junk. Some companies have a lesser reputation and must charge lower prices even if the mod is perfect. Also the quality of workmanship and the materials used makes a difference. There are some modders out there who are-- literally-- master craftsmen, and you pay for their work. They build them one at a time, and don't let go of them until they're right. Others are made thousands per hour on automated machinery and you should get the discount from volume production. A mod machined by hand from a solid block of forged titanium will be more expensive than one cast in pot metal. Most people think the dna mod boards do a better job of TC than the SX boards, and they cost more. But if you don't use TC, who cares? If all you want is to be able to set how powerful the vape is on the machine, you can build it yourself with a $10 part that makes a variable voltage mod instead of variable wattage. That's exactly the same thing-- a variable wattage mod varies wattage by varying voltage-- except you don't get a cute screen displaying the wattage numbers and you have to use a rheostat to adjust the power instead of clicking buttons. What's that worth to you? Some folks like to play the "my mod's more powerful than yours" game; they got the "MUST HAVE MOST POWERFUL MOD ON PLANET" disease, and they might never see the topside of 100 watts in regular usage. Fine, if that's what they want, and are willing to pay for it.
The mod you want is the mod you want, the one that works for you. There is nothing intrinsically better about greater power, especially if you don't normally use it. Now, I can see buying a more powerful mod than you will actually use for a number of reasons, like for example you want a mod with 2 or 3 batteries, even if you only vape at 40 watts, so you don't have to change batteries all the time. Great! That's a perfectly good reason to buy a 200 watt mod you'll never use 2/3rds of the upper range. Maybe you like the idea of the touch-screen some of them are now using and they're all big power. Fine, says I. Some folks like the "light show" mods that are coming out. Super, if you do. But it's about what you want, and what suits you. There isn't any objective, outside standard that can be applied.
