That is the most beautiful picture I have ever seen! What BAMF collection! Answers a lot of questions too....so obviously u don't need an 18650 and u can still produce some great vaping and clouds I'm sure. That Provari looks nice as well as the one all the way to the left...is that the dna 30?

If you can only have one VV//VW I'd get a Sigelei 20W at $120 is very versatile and can handle must everything from .5 ohms and up.
The mechanicals are for the most part are the same, a pro vaper can probably tell that .1 volt drop difference between a silver connection or a steel one, I cant, so I just buy mech mods based on the firing mechanism and the looks, I got for example a king clone mod that now rests peacefully in the garbage can because the firing mechanism kept coming loose.

If I was just starting out (oh wait, I am just starting out :)) I would buy something that has variable power not just voltage. The iTaste MVP and SVD have really come down in price letely and if you look hard, you can probably find them for under $40 bucks. I would choose the SVD (which I have) over the MVP because you can't replace the battery in the MVP so it's life expectancy is limited.

Mech mods are nice but you don't need one to use RDA/RBA's as long as your builds are within the tolerance (1.3ohm - 3ohm). You could get an iTaste SVD with an Igo-W and start your journey for less than $75 bucks including batteries and a charger. Then you could run anything that commercially available; Aero Tanks, Nautilus's, Drippers, what ever...

Just my newbie 2 cents... :)

Thanks a bunch guys! I am gonna go with both. First I am gonna go with a Valkyrie, Cronus or the Caravela..... and I already ordered an IGO W. As far as buying my VV/VW MOD....maybe VAMO 5 or the SID...so many choices... I smoked a pack a day, so I figure if I stay under that budget, I'm good....looking fwd to getting my first taste of the Suicide Bunny juice..mothers milk...our local vendor Just got some in. Head in there in just a bit. Have any of you tried it yet?

If you had your choice of the CHIYOU, NEMESIS, ORIGIN or JM22..ok.throw the CARAVELA in there too.....which one??? and you can throw your choice setup on it as well (battery, Kick, choice RDA, etc).... I keep going back to the NEMESIS, but they are all nice...Oh yeah, I got some Suicide Bunny(Mother's Milk) yesterday and while it has great flavor and one of the best tasting I have had yet, after a while I had to cut it with some USA Blend high VG to kill some of the sweetness. smooth, but the very sweet.....Another question is that my wife is flying out of town tomorrow and she is wondering if she will be able to bring her ecig on the plane with her. She has an eGo C Upgrade with a kanger t3s. Can she bring that on the flight?

No you can't. Not even if you ordered through Fasttech and got some really cruddy batteries and charger.

$37.21 for the SVD from fasttech. (With 1-3 month wait)
$10 per battery for decent (not great) IMR batteries.
$20 for the charger.

That's $77+ right there and you haven't bought your RDA, Kanthal, wicking material, or ohm meter yet.


Then you could run anything that commercially available; Aero Tanks, Nautilus's, Drippers, what ever...

I can do that on my Nemesis with a Kick2, and I don't need to run out and buy another mod if I decide to run lower than 1.3ohm coils.


And my Nemmy + Kick with an Aerotank on top is still 4 inches shorter than my old SVD.

i have a black nzonic
Black Nzonic Clone by EHPRO - Eciggity

and a magneto and a nemi. Nemi does have a funky switch but looks nice and hits hard, magneto is just my workhorse when im in situations where it could get dropped, kicked, stepped on ect., and the Nzonic is just nice, silver contacts, hits hard, and looks nice, use it alot.

Kicks are more for the person with out a regulated mod, least imo i got one an never use it, just easier to throw the tank onto the VTR or Evic and vape away. But if all you have is a mech, its a good way to get protection for your NORMAL vaping sessions.

for my tanks I use my vaporshark dna30, before that I used a VTR or Evic.

REO's are great, luv mine. My Reo and a spare battery and im set for two days.

I was checking out the electric angel at the shop yesterday with the patriot on top. it was a beauty, the ease of the lock and the feel of it. but it was pricy and out of my range. so I am nearing toward the Nemesis with my IGO I have coming in and wanted to get a trident clone as well. I like the Caravella, but you can't throw a Kick on there, so I am sure I will order that one too. I saw a couple decent clones in the 25-30 range.
 
If you are new to vaping I recommend you stay completely away from mechs for a while. Keeping them safe takes away from just learning to vape....and you can run that igo-w on just about anything as long as you don't try to build some super sub ohm....that again you should stay away from for a while

With a $200 budget you can get some really nice APV.....provari and semovar are both some faves.....or get a mid range like a zmax or something and use the extra cash in all the juice you will want to try!

here's the electric angel clone by ehpro... EHPro EA Mod . by far the best clone i have ever owned. i still use it daily. looks good with a patriot and especially an omega on top. at $50 bucks this is the one i suggest for durability for people looking for bargains... best of luck on your search...

That depends on what you intend to do with your mechanical PV.
I do not do sub ohm, so everything that I use is in the 2-3 Amp range. This allows me to consider other factors when choosing batteries.
For example here are 6 PV's all using the same AW IMR 18490 (16 amp) battery.

AND, 5 of the 6 are mechanicals.

Wow, is that a craftsman screw driver in the background? I have the same set I got them like 25 years ago for Christmas :)
