You say Sigelei is a better brand but do we know if this new in house chip is as good as the SX 330 that's in your iPV? I've been hearing there are some quirks.I'm learning that I do love huge, thick clouds (lol). But that I'm more of a FLAVOR chaser..
And I am very happy with the performance of the IPV3, that's why I want the Mini..
... But the Sig150w just looks cooler IMO; I held it next to my IPV3. It looks nicer in black and more sleek. The button is bigger and nicer. And it has Magnets. Plus it's a Sigelei, a great brand - and the Plus and 150w seem more popular here than the IPV's
I'm also finding out that I don't need the battery life from two 18650's, although it is nice..
And I'll never that much POWER. I find myself vaping between 25-35w mainly. Haven't gone over 60w yet.
I need to do some selling/trading!
Further more, Sigelei only offers a 3 month warranty while the warranty on your iPV is good for a whole year. And Sigelei might have those magnets but your iPV is waterproof. You could also replace the screws on the iPV with a magnet kit if you wanted to.
I did a lot of extensive research before buying my iPV 2S the other day and while a lot of forum posts from here and reddit showed a lot of bias toward Sigelei, every review and comparison I watched brought me right back to Greenleaf/iPV. Furthermore, everybody I've talked to who actually owns an iPV, absolutely loves them.
Perhaps you would be happier with the Sigelei but perhaps you are also over thinking it. There's always going to be buyers remorse because no matter what you buy, there's always going to be something else you could have bought instead.
Haven't spent a cent on vaping since last Tuesday. Oh, except for a couple of orders...
By tomorrow I won't have spent a cent on vaping since Tuesday.
I haven't regretted anything I've bought. Sure, I would like some more things, but they aren't emergencies. Do you mods work? If so, then they are useful, and there's no need to have regrets. Just use them. It never hurts to keep them either even if they are backups. I've been collecting up mechs as well just in case the FDA gets insane, and cuts us off. And collecting up extra tank sections in case I need them. I have a huge o ring and extra post screw collection as well even though they can't stop selling those things 
I've passed on some RBAs after getting something new I like better. But, I enjoyed them before finding out later I preferred something else. A friend got me a Doge for my birthday. Cloud chasing doesn't suit me, but it was fun to try it and fog up the house
It ended up going to a new owner, but I got to try something different.

Gosh, I don't feel so bad now for buying nickel wire in multiple gauges for a APV I don't even own....yet.
I hear ya..
I bought an 8 Track player for my car in 1971..
Then I bought a cassette player..
Then I bought a cd player..
Then I bought an mp3 player..
Then I bought an Android Device...
Over the years..
The devices improved...but the music did not...
The music actually degraded when you went from CD to MP3.I hear ya..

I'm not too fond of the Sigelei name since I have several of their mechs I rarely use any more cause they are plagued with firing issues that I don't want to be caught away from home with gear failure. I have a Zmax that also has button issues with random menu popups that really @!$$ me off if the button isn't pressed exactly right, what would make the Sigelei 100 or 150 watt device any different with their crappy quality electronics and IMO selling poorly tested products.
I did buy a IPV2 and so far am happy with its performance but like mentioned earlier the screws are a pain to deal with and I bought magnets but I bent a screw a bit trying to get the box threading out and the threading just won't budge to come out.
I have all kinds of gear I don't use no more but still keep on buying new things looking for the best vape possible, I thought that with my protanks until the kayfun came along and now I wonder...what I'm going to buy next cause one of these days my wife's eyes are going to stay in the back of her head from her rolling them at all my vapemail packages.

Yeah, I probably just over think it.. And I usually really research what I buy.. But coming up on a big Vape-anniversary, I've really been spoling myself - with all kinds of flavors, and all kinds of new gear lol
Lol, I do love my IPV3. I'm getting used to the size.. Is it really waterproof? I heard somebody else mention that recently
.... I think I'll just keep my IPV3/Atlantis, and get an IPV Mini ($50, why not?) or SX Zero (thanks for the recommendation!) soon. And maybe get a Subtank when they release a smaller version. My Atlantis does seem a bit muted on flavor - but the convenience is great, plus I have my BILLOW for flavor and rebuilding. The Billow is my 1st RTA and I LOVE it!
Haha, I'm about 2 years into vaping/off cigs (will be in about a week!).. And my buying frenzy has just begun!Don't fret too much, the buying frenzy tapers off after a couple of years.

I got an SVD and an RSST and sit here and watch everyone else buy and fuss about what they have.... alot of fussin going on too
Yep. According to this link, it's water resistant.Yeah, I probably just over think it.. And I usually really research what I buy.. But coming up on a big Vape-anniversary, I've really been spoling myself - with all kinds of flavors, and all kinds of new gear lol

And in this introduction of my iPV 2S, they do submerge it in water.

Wow! Great to know
Especially if I end up dropping it in the toilet (clean lol), like I did with my old eVic. The eVic lasted me about another 6months or so too, before the o-ring stopped holding the 510 pin up.. About a year+ total; my IPV3 was about the same price so we'll see if I still have it around next Xmas heh
I actually do really like my IPV3, it seemed a bit sturdier than the Sig150 (without batteries).. But the Sig was a tiny bit smaller, and looked a little bit sleeker IMO - really cool look in black. Maybe I'll get a Black or Carbon Fiber J-Wrap for my IPV3 to change from silver - it's getting scratched up anyways, especially around the 510.
... and I still really want the IPV Mini!! Especially for days like tomorrow, when I'll be going out for New Years. Maybe I'll grab 1 quick and support a local vape shop. Otherwise, I'll wait until I can find 1 in-stock for at least $47
And I still regret getting my Atlantis over the Subtank.. The flavors just not there for me, and vapor seemed about the same on the ST. Not to big a deal though, it was cheap

Kind of regret buying a Cloupor DNA 30 as a few weeks later I picked up an SX Mini and haven't touched the Cloupor since and don't see myself using it much if at all. There's nothing wrong with the Cloupor really but I do have the quirk where the screen lights up without any input from me. Makes me nervous I guess. *shrug* But now the Cloupor is just going to collect dust. I know I can keep it as a backup but I could've just saved the $60 I spent on it and bought more RDAs or juice or whatever. Speaking of RDAs, now that I picked up a couple of those, my Nautilus Minis are being underused. And now I have a Subtank, Atlantis and Holmes V2 on the way... lol. I really this buying frenzy runs its course quickly like others have said cause I just keeping spending. And now with the 50W iStick coming up there's more that I want. On a tangent here so bear with me but I love my iStick so much the 50W is gonna be a day one purchase for me. I know it has its bad points but the battery life is killer, it's small and convenient and it gives enough power to satisfy most vapers. The only way I don't buy the 50W version is if eleaf really makes some boneheaded decisions with its design.
I use a SMPL tube mod and a Kayfun lite plus built to 0.9. Its a really good vape and personally I don't need over 20 watts. DNA30 box mods work fine for what I do -- bit was debatng the Yihi SXMini. At 60 watts + modes + setting memory for 5 different attys/rdas, sounds intriguing. The Atlantis tank isn't supposed to be run over 30 (or something very close), so you don't need more than 30.
Actually the Atlantis doesn't really wake up until 30w, I find 35 to 40 the sweet spot.
That's what I heard which brought me into an iPV 2S instead of the MINI. I'm still however considering a MINI considering the MVP 2.0 and 650 Kanger eVod are my only other devices. I just wish I could afford an SX Mini. That would make my iPV 2S, my backup.
A jwrap is definitely something I'm buying for my iPV because at this moment, I'm treating it like a baby. I just can't decide which one to get. I just wish I didn't have to cover it up considering the black finish looks so nice, accented with the beveled silver edges.Wow! Great to know

I regret my Orchid v3 and v4 clones, erl clone, squapeR clone, Big Dripper clone, and MOST of my RDAs. Only RDA I've really liked is my plume veil and hobo, everything else is in the junk drawer. So pretty much I regret everything I don't use anymore xD
