I've been vaping for a while. I say get the mvp2. It cost me $40 @ 101 vape .com . The vtr is great, but the weight and battery changes will get old after a while. vaping has advanced light years in the past 3 years. The problem for a new vaper is that there is so much advanced tech you will get lost with all of the options.
vaping can be as cheap or as expensive as you want it to be.
How to keep it cheap.
Get a long lasting battery that suits your needs
Learn how to rebuild your coils. Super easy, and you're going to have to learn how to do it anyway.
Buy "relatively" good, but inexpensive juice. *Best bet, it to go diy and make your own.
How to make vaping expensive.
Buy every new doo dad that's just released. In six months the same manufacturer will release a new, updated version that fixes the problems of the old version. (Unfortunately all the manufacturers will do the same thing) You'll have a drawer of crap that you never use.
Buy designer eliquid.
Become a vape smob, and buy 4 different provari's that do the same thing but have a different body. (provari owners aren't vape snobs. Sadly I just needed an example)
Buy 200.00 rebuildable atomizers.
Refuse to build your own coils and shell out money for tanks and clearos, and throw them away when they don't work like the original.
In short, everybody is different, accept you will waste a certain amount of money. I recommend some kind of "agressive vape budget". Keeps you from the New, Shiny, Syndrome. Eventually you'll thank me. Your best bet, with all the hardware out there is to spend your time finding "your" juice. You'll thank me later..

Not arguing (I just started myself) wondering rather - Why is the VV v3 not an option?
yes 800Mah is not forever but I keep it on pass-through anyway (you seriously wont be walking around with those battons outdoor, right?) ... VV v3 the size of an eGo and has all the bells and whistles. I tried a bunch of eJuices from the major vendors and the ones I tried (so far around 20) seem to stink over 10W anyway (not to mention some taste best at 6.5W)

Wonderful post, vaping can be extremely cheap once you understand the basics and if you're willing to fiddle a bit (design and quality control is still sorely lacking)
I've found an 1650 battery in a plastic box, with a 5 amp switch will last all day, provide a smooth, perfect DC voltage, and if it's too hot - let go of the fire switch, too cool - hold the button longer. Want higher voltage, get a NiMH 5V battery and charger (they're in the "clearance" section of your favorite vendor)
Build your coils, build you mods, experiment....realize vaping is simply getting enough juice to a small coil which gets hot enough to vaporize it, and deliver it through the drip tip.
+10 on DIY juice, I've tried the designer juices, none can compare to my own for an ADV. Do you like frozen foods or your own homemade from scratch for dinner??
Even the version 2 and 3 toppers I've bought that have failed on first trys, I've found that I can go back and tweak for a nice vape. Recently in a carto discussion in another thread, the filler in the carto came up. I tried taking an old 510 carto with filler, removing the tube and filler, replacing it with ecowool. It vapes very well, doesn't hold much juice, no burning filler possible, a semi-success.
Not for everyone, but I just throw it out as an example, think outside the box, it's what has pushed vaping tech forward in the past few years. You would be floored by the variety of experiments tried over the years, many considered mainstream now, such as cotton and SS mesh wicks....
Nothing wrong with the VV3 at all - it's a very nice piece of kit - the MVP (and particularly the VTR) hit a little harder power-wise and of course, the MVP has terrific battery life but the VV3 is a solid choice for people coming off of cigalikes or switching from an eGo-type battery - delivers a great vape by all accounts.
Went from a Provari Mini to a VTR recently..Nt bad but the same with all chinese devices, it just doesnt feel the same once the battery level is into yellow. Wanted this change cos quite bored of tube devices.
Next up should be to DIY a box mod using dna 30..

We are fortunate enough to have vaping becoming main stream and have many options.
Some people buy cars to go from point A to B. Some buy to collect. Some buy for speed. Some for work.
Vaping is become similar to this. Nothing wrong with collecting mod if you are collector. Some get more kick out of building coil than vaping. For many, vaping is... well just vaping. Nothing wrong with any of these and they all help vaping community move forward.
For me, build of VTR was superior compare to MVP. Also, love the idea of removable battery. When I held it in my hand, I knew it will last long time. My brother has MVP2 and he loves it. He thinks I am nuts for liking VTR.
Both are superior APV and you can't go wrong with either one. Hence, best thing to do is to visit local B&M and hold them in your hand. APV is one of those things that you will be touching many times throughout the day. So, let you hand decide which one is better fit for you.
I love my MVP 2 but a little hint. I have noticed that my battery doesn't last as long when it's exposed to cold temps. I work in a cold unheated warehouse and on work days it seems like the battery dies much quicker than non work days. Just saying lol. But otherwise it's great

I wish the MVP had the VTR style where the tank attaches. That would be perfect imo 
I have the MVP2 and absolutely love it. But also, the VTR is amazing, a little but more heavy than the MVP but still an excellent vape. For around 115 you should be able to find the VTR with 2 batteries and a charger, adapter, also an iClear 30s included. I'd go with the VTR due to the convenience of being able to change batteries on the go.

Happens to all batteries....

..I'm trying to decide the same thing. Mvp vs vtr. A friend is selling his mvp v2 to me for 20$ but the ol lady thinks I should buy the vtr..
I haven't smoked a cig in 3 months now ( a little over that) and I started with a "big slick" now I'm using the itaste vv w a protank 3. But idk what would would or out better between the mvp and vtr. I halfway even understand how the volts and watts and All that stuff even works..
Sometimes I wonder of I vape too much. I'm really new to all of this.

Or buy the VTR and get the MVP for your backup....
It isn't a race to buy the most, the fastest...waiting a bit will sometimes get you the version 2 or 3, and a better experience...
I was thinking the same thing, but then it occurred to me that I don't have a goat. Maybe the MVP has extra features for livestock pacification?
I use the MVPv2 at home and the VVv3 when out and about for size reasons. I don't notice a big difference between the two in vaping experience but the MVP is still in the green after 800 hits. Make sure you know how much your friend has used the MVPv2 because you can't change the battery.
