Hi, I'm new in big battery.
I have an MVP but I can' t see ohm and it only changes V, not W.
Now I wanna buy an economic tube, so wich one do you advice to me?
I think that could be good Nemesis Clone , it gives the same power/quantity of vapour as MVP, or not?? or wich one on that price (approx 30-50$) is the best one for vaping ?? I need max 10 max 11 cm longer, not more, cause I use it outside home. Thinking about it, I would like an electonic bb, with a screen so i can set V and W witout a complicated kick to set.
Could be perfect if you can advice to me a tube that is sold on fasttech.

thank you so much:2cool:

yes, I would like an electronic bb like zmax mini of sigelei... this is the best one with this size, orthere is something better for this price??
think that I'll use it with taifun gt / russian 91%

I saw KSD Kmax , Kamry K200 ,SVD, TECS MSK-2000. But now I'm confused about who wins. the pretty one is the first that I wrote, the best quality I think that comes from the SVD, but, if you must choose one (or two) , wich wins? and why?? wich are the positive points about the one you choose?

thanks :)

That's the best you'll find in that price range. If you're just going to use 18350 batteries, check out the zmax mini. I would prefer the mini.. I'd rather carry extra batteries than have a long tube in my hand.

The only others I can think of is the semovar and provari mini. The semovar is modular, so seperate tubes for 3 different battery lengths, 18350, 18490, and 18650. These are both around $200.. might find a good deal on classifieds.. doubt you'll see a semovar on there though.

Edit- by the way, what does bb stand for?
Editedit- think you edited while I posted. I'm only familiar with the svd.. the others are mechanicals. No chip to regulate voltage.. I don't know if they're kickable. Power only based on battery charge, resistance, and voltage loss from device.

uhm, I would take the zmax mini, it seems the best one, but tonight I found a lot of bad comments about it: the button doesn't work well and reset different things (volt, watts,ecc), and also the display mooves from it's place.
Maybe those guys were unfortunately, but I saw at least 10 people that was saying that: at the beginning it works well, but after comes out those problems.
So, excluding this one, somebody knows which is the best one from bb that I wrote first??
thanks

Stay away from the KSD KMax. Pbusardo brutalized it, and usually he can find some things good things to say about any mod, and he was hard pressed to find anything he liked about it.

The Sigelei Zmax V3 and V5 are nice pieces of kit. The mini is getting some grief lately because of button misfires. This is a known problem with the Sigelei's. They don't have the best buttons. And it appears as if the Mini suffers this as well

The Spire by Beyond Vape has a year warranty and has nicer fit and finish, but it looks as if they use the same control board as the Sigelei, and it's entirely possible that the button (underneath) is exactly the same.

If you get a Sigelei, be sure to get some Noalox to coat the threads, and go to the Sigelei telescopic thread here in this forum and read up on how to adjust the battery tube properly. Too loose and it will misfire. Too tight and you will jam the battery into the control head and cause it to misfire.

The Vamo's are "ok" but I hear issues with the 510 connection threads.

The Innokin SVD is another one to look at, although I hear it has some button issues too...or at least did. Innokin is very good at addressing reported issues, so that might have gone by the boards.

Of course the "King" of tube mods is the ProVari. It is built like a tank, but you are paying for it. It is expensive, but there are people here who are working on 4 years on their ProVari, which is far beyond the time frame of some of the others.

I think the MVP2 gives you the best bang for your buck. It offers an ohms reader and variable wattage, and has an awesome 2600mah battery life. It's price point is hard to beat as well.

And the one thing I like the best is one that many criticize: It's disposable. When the internal battery fails, you throw it away. It seems like a "minus" but I like the fact that the unit does not give you any false expectations. You know that you'll get a year or so out of it, and then replace it. I know going in, my MVP2's will eventually get "worn" out, and when they do, I'll buy a new one. But at least I don't have a nice shiny stainless steel mod that LOOKS like it will last forever, but is made with inferior internals that guarantees that it won't.

thanks for your post.
I have already an MVP 1 and it's best solution for me.
but now I wanna try an elettronic bb under 11 cm. better about 10. There is NO ONE bb as I would, with 70-80 $!!!
in fact zmax and mini has problem you wrote, so I don't trust them. The only one good, superb, and without a negative rep on the net is the legend, but... with a 18500 it takes 12cm..... grrr!!!
are you sure that still there isn' t a decent-good electronic bb under 70 $ and under 10 cm?!?!? for me this is incredible.
I hope that someone found the white fly that I'm searching :)
