Personally here is what I would buy. A nemesis clone $27, 30 gauge kanthal $8, Igo-W $8, Efest 30 amp 18650 $15, Nitecore I2 about $17 for a total of $75 and a setup that can rock and is about as reliable as it gets. I don't suggest going into sub ohm coils but get the better batteries for the protection they offer. They are worth every penny.

The hole in your current set-up is a back-up unit. I'd go for the Sigelei because I like them and you have expressed an interest in one. Then you will have a box mod and a tube mod.

Here's your $75...

-Sigelei Zmax V3 Telescopic (body only) $39.95 Mods
-Nitecore Intellicharger i-4 (4 bank charger) $17.11 http://www.amazon.com/Nitecore-IntelliCharger-i4-Battery-Charger/dp/B005UAI372
-Spend what's left and a little more on some 18350, 18490, 18500 or 18650 batteries
AW: Genuine AW Batteries at RTD Vapor
Efest: Efest Batteries

You have me here.
I just realized I have some left over gift card from Amazon on my account. So the Nitecore is as good as paid for already. That V3 price is probably the best I've seen out of vendors who appear to actually have it in stock. One of my local B&M has genuine AW IMR batteries in stock so I can hit them up on my next run out there.

Next paycheck will land me a dripper.

I think the next buy after that will be a Kayfun style unit. (since I started rebuilding my pro tank coils I am pretty satisfied, so no rush here, I want to get my moneys worth out of the coils I already have)

You guys are great the input here has been very useful, and kinda fun to see what everyone would do.


Edit: Once I get some batteries and a charger together, later down the road I am sure I will wind up with a mech or 2 of some kind. If nothing else just so some of my toppers will have places to live.

Too easy. I'd get an Segelei Brass Bagua Clone, some high drain 18650's, an Igo-W, some 28 gauge kanthal, and that would just about do it.

I have been wanting a solid brass mech for a while.. I am a simple guy, and the lines on that Ba Gua are really clean and understated. I think that you just pointed me in the direction of my next purchase. I hope it's not coated.. I want it to patina. Then I will need to hunt down a simple brass dual coil dripper (think Igo-W, but brass). That would be my dream setup.

The original Ba Gua is not that pricey, either... $120. Not bad at all...

.. wait. I just saw this: 17mm? That is thinner than a ProTank.. finding a dripper that small limits the options.
