I moved from vape pens and spinner batteries directly into mechs as this was the best option at the time. My first high powered regulated mod was a Snow Wolf 200 (V1), one of the first TC mods. I still have it, and use it occasionally. What I mostly remember it teaching me is I am a lot happier in the 25-40 watt range; that is, a vape easily attainable with a one-battery mech mod. So, I have bunches of regulated mods now-- folk are making some really good ones nowadays-- some of which exceed even 200 watts. What it mostly means to me is the batteries last a while because I don't vape anywhere near that high :)

I don't miss any of the regulated mods I've ever owned, and my parallel mech was always used for endurance, not power. It's hard to get attached to mods, IMO, unless it's an art piece or a custom job.

I miss a couple of atomizers though. I was a weirdo that ran MTL drippers as low as 0.5ohms. The Cyclone and Immortalizer were my babies. There's something to be said for a hot, tight drag.

My first high power mod was the aspire Pegasus. It tops out at 70 watts and I remember thinking there was no way I’d need anything bigger ever. I came from a Sigelei zmax and never went over 10 watts so I thought 70 was ridiculous and some of the 100+ watt mods were insane. I didn’t understand how the ohms of my atomizer would effect how many watts I needed. So I quickly figured out why someone would buy a 100+ dual battery mod. Not because I’d be vaping that high but when vaping at the 50+ watts I liked the extra battery life was nice. So while the Pegasus was nice I quickly moved into a dual battery mod and lowered my juice’s nicotine from 36 to 24mg’s. Lot bigger clouds with the .5 ohm atomizer over the 2.4ohm protank atomizer I was accustomed too. Don’t you hate when you ask someone a question that can be answered with a word or two and they ramble on and on giving you their whole life story :facepalm:

Depends on what you consider High Power? Back in the day a 15 watt mod was considered crazy lol. If you mean over 100 watts the speeder I just bought is my first one. I doubt it will ever even see 50 watts though in my hands.

My FIRST high powered mod was a segeli Zmax V3 that had variable voltage and Wattage. It went to a whopping 15 watts and would drive a 1.3 ohm coil! State of the art man, state of the art. Cost like 90 bucks in 2014 lol.

I remember buying the SVD from Innokin with it's (I had to go check) 15W maximum and thinking: Wow. We're almost starting to get to light bulb territory here.

Mine was an IPV5, which was amazingly durable, and is. The first high power mod I loved was the steampunk nano tesla 120, I loved it so much I immediately bought a backup. I'm a tootle puffer, I don't need all that wattage, but the vape is fantastic and TC works well enough for my purposes (it works pretty well).

My first non-eGo device was a Vamo. It also put out a whopping 15 Watts and I was in vape heaven. I still have two of those 15 Watt beauties and some Protanks to go on'em.

First "high power" device was the first Pico. Never in my mind did I think I'd buy a device capable of five times the output of my V's.

Then there was a Pico Dual. It's 200 Watt capable but my batteries are not.
