I want a mechanical mod I think I have got it down to theses two. The Zenesis standard or the ihybrid!!! Any thoughts or personal preference if you have both?
Ihybrid or Zenesis

IMHO, the Zenesis. I've owned both, and the iHybrid struck me as something trying to be a Zenesis, without being built as well.
I've leaned towards an iHybrid--based on reviews/construction.
I have NEITHER ONE ( I dislike Gennies), but if I were to purchase, iHybrid looks the better deal (fitment, draw, protection).

How about starting with a mechanical tube mod (like the PureSmoker Legacy) and an AGA-T? That what I am currently using, and it has been great. The benefits are that I can rotate 4 different tank of flavors throughout the day. With a hybrid, you are somewhat at the mercy of one flavor per tank unless you wish to empty it to change flavors. Just my opinion.
Yeah I was looking at that legacy its a good price you like the way it works? And is it really stainless Steel?
I own both the ihybrid and the zen standard. They are really not that alike. In my opinion, ihybrid ands down. I like them both, but the ihybrid hits extremely hard compared to the zen. They are both great devices, but my zen usually sits.
I've owned both, and continue to use the ihybrid. For me, the flavor is better, I don't have to mess with an insulator, the switch works without having to mod, and it seems to hit harder (less internal resistance). I've owned the Zen standard, mini and the sidewinder (even with replaced internals sw doesn't hit as hard), and in the end the ihybrid wins in my book. They're all really well made. (with the exception of the Zen switches, maybe I just had bad luck.)
Sounds good I'm defiantly looking for a bigger hit thank you. Now I just have to find one lol
I have heard the switches on the zen do give some people issues.. And I love that IHybrid has many different battery setups. So I'm on the hunt can't wait till they verify me. Thanks
I have and still do own many mods. I think the Legacy is the best deal out of them all. It is definitely stainless steel, the switch works very well, the threads and connections are all top notch, it is readily available so you don't have to F5 websites, hug up to those in the inner circles, spend outrageous amounts for a classified listing just to get one. Add in the ability to change the top section at any time, and it is a win in my book. What happens when you need part (like other people posting WTB threads) because they are hardly available? PureSmoker keeps a good stock, so no worries there. This can be said for other mechanical mods as well, like the AltSmoke offerings. It's just the Legacy is so simple and solid. It is a bit heavy though, more so the aluminum used to make the IHybrid.
I would be upset if I had a broken switch or cracked tank on a $200 plus mod, and couldn't get parts immediately. It would make the unit useless.
There is also a reason that the iHy is changing often. Not sure what the deal is, but there are multiple switches and now the SS standard.
I'm sure I will wait soo long any way if I want that any way so in the mean Time I'm going to check out the legacy or the NGP or maby the gg clone thanks guys
I wouldn't touch the Zenesis. Poorly thought out imo. The battery tube isn't snug so batteries just rattle away in there. The switch is sub par, and the overall fit and finish is lacking. It's made with excellent materials but that's where the goodness ends. No idea why Zen products are so hyped. The Z atty pro is "made" to fit the Provari but doesn't even do that well. I agree with the Legacy suggestions. Toss a nice RBA on that and you will be way more content and heavier in the pocketbook.
Just curious what you meant by the ZAP not doing well?
I've been vaping it for a little over two weeks and it hits fantastically.
Then again this is my first RBA.
My z-atty-pro actually fits my provari perfectly.
That said, I just picked up an rba to go on my legacy mini. That thing is bulletproof and most of the parts that will wear out can be bough at a hardware store.

Agreed there. I've had a few now, and they've all fit seamlessly. ZAPs have their quirks, but the fit with a Provari isn't one of them.
