Hello, and advise saught

Hello all, Been reading here for awhile just never posted.

Started vaping just over a year ago (still use analogs when consuming adult beverage).Started with an Ego starter kit with carto's, recommended and setup by a friend. Quickly moved to a simple twist stick with vv and iclear 16 by local B&M, loved the vape and flavor. Got a Spinner twist and a MVP v1 from FT (VV only, now dead) and some protanks, very happy with that setup. Never really got into dripping, just not my thing.
GF liked it, but didn't like the size of the MVP (since when does size matter). So I got her an iTaste VV v3, and a mini protank. Very happy with flavor and vape.
Been using the twist and various protank clones. Recently started rebuilding my coils for the protanks on my own VV v3. Considering getting another MVP v2 with VW but.... when out and about the VV is a nice size.

I like the box mod look, (read, I want another MVP with VW) but looking for: recessed 510, portable power (can live without, but I like the idea), side fire, internal charger (prefer to be side vs bottom). Considered modding an MVP but I prefer to have to mod a brand new purchase, (don't mind modding something but I can't replicate the perfection I seek without it looking botched plus I hate opening up brand new equipment, (won't root my phone till the warranty is off).

I have been looking at the Kayfun and Russian clones (not cloud chasing just want to get the most from my juice), not really interested in sub ohm (not ruled out). Don't really want to mess with changing batteries, but would like something that can last 18 hours (its the job, my MVP fit this nicely). The VV does not go that long without recharging. Spinner at 3.3v can make it, but flavor lacks. Please feel free to offer up suggestions.

Anyway that is my intro and background to vaping

Well, if you like box mods and want durability and ease, you might want to check out a Reo.

They can take cartos as toppers, but really rock with a simple rebuildable atty. They bottom feed the atty by squeezing a bottle contained in the mod, so you get the benefits of onboard juice storage with very, very good flavour and vaper - better than any protank, easier than a kayfun, easier to make coils for than a protank. Subohming is not required to get the most out of a reo, but you can go there if you ever wanted.

You can get them in different sizes, and even the largest one with an atty is smaller than an MVP with tank topper.

It's a little different from the gear you've used, but from your description, you'd probably really appreciate its quality, performance, and form factor.

Alternatively, there are some nice DNA 30 box mods (e,g, the VaporShark DNA 30, or rDNA 30).

Hadn't considered the RIO, I'll have to look into it. Thanks

Have you considered the IPV V2? It's a 50 watt, VW box mod with internal charger, yet the batteries can be replaced. Recessed 510 connection, but no ego threading I think... It's pricier then the MPV 2, but I think it fits more of your requirements, and as the battery can be replaced, it should last longer.

First... welcome!

The REO mentioned is a very nice device.
Some other box mod then the MVP v2 with a lot of battery power might be this one...

Calling a REO a box mod is like calling a Morgan Dollar 4 bits. A REO is a REO. Carry on. Forgive my digression.
