It's hard to rank favourites, I guess it comes down to which ones I use the most:

1. Innokin MVP - I prefer variable wattage over variable voltage, but I can overlook this a little bit with the MVP. I've seen a lot of people mention the in built battery as a negative, for me it's a huge positive. I can head of for the weekend, don't have to bring batteries and a charger, this thing charges off the same cord as my mobile phone. Battery life is off the map. I've read that the charging point is a weakness in this device, so I'm always careful when plugging this one in. Know the battery will die eventually, don't care. Just a good all round device, if it had variable wattage it would be even better.

2. Man Cave Mod - A variable wattage wooden box mod, mine takes 18490 batteries. Great craftsmanship, looks good, works well.

3. UDT V6 kicked - A good stainless steel tube mod that works really well with the kick.

4. SS SmokTech Telescope kicked - The stainless version of this bottom button mod is well built and with the threaded top cap is a great mod for the kick. The only weakness for me was the switch, which was a bit wonky, so I changed it out for the switch from the chrome telescope. Now it works like a dream.

5. Anodized SmokTech Bolt kicked - with the extension this becomes a great kickable device. A bit of sanding from inside the extension and it works like a dream.

6. Wizards Apprentice - Smallest and best built 18650 mod I've ever laid my hands on. The switch wasn`t consistent for me, got sick of licking my finger.

7. Precise Plus 18650 - Another well built 18650 mod (not as nice as the Wizards Apprentice). Great build quality, works great in standard configuration but is a pain in the .... to use with the kick, which puts it behind a lot of my other devices.

I was also able to try the mvp it is a nice mod i dont like the max is 5v but for the price sweller paid in a coop and how well made the mod actually is it is a deal
Yeah, it does have its limitations, the 5 volt max isn't an issue for me but I can see how it could be for some vapers.

MVP is a solid mod. I was really suprised. And battery life is rediculous. As a provari fanboy and admittedly the cheapest vaper around for the price I'd say Its a must have. I'm looking forward to the day when we can all get provari quality at not so high of a price(I almost cried wen I dropped the money on my provari, and immediately bought another upon using it) If I had my way I'd add an ohm checker and bump it up to 6v or have a wattage setting and then I'd love it even more. And to add I just got a vamo which has been treating me well. Spring is a definite problem so I will replace it with a provari spring but other than that I have no problems. As far as rebuildables I have had no luck but will not give up for the single fact that all of them look so flipping cool. I am keeping hope that eventually they will evolve into something that is stupid proof or easier to fidle with(also dont have much patience in the vaping category). All of the genesis attys I have tried have had an airy draw which i am not a fan of. Willing to listen to any suggestions on a tighter draw genni or tips.

Definitely post anything you make I am constantly looking at mods here on vapeporn.com and all over the net and I have to have a tough mod too I also dislike the polished finish super t is going to satin up my gg when they slow down on their workload

Finally got the DNA 20 in, it's a beast w/a 20 watt limit.

I used a hammond 1590G diecast enclosure, 2x 1100mah 10c li-po batteries, DNA 20 power regulating board, DNA usb charger, a metal 12mm pushbutton switch and 2x 300g dome tactile switches for the digital pot.

I cut a piece of plexiglas for the door instead of trying to make a cutout for the screen, gonna tint it tomorrow. 20121228_210023-1.jpg20121228_215952-1.jpg20121228_215905-1.jpg

Thanks, this board is a total winner so far. I've only run it up to 10 watts on a carto tank, definitely gets hot. I like the li-po batteries too, with the 2 in parallel I have a 20c (22 amp) potential discharge rate to prevent any kind of a power sag.

I think that when these boards become more readily available we'll see some cool new power regulated mods coming out
