I think I will buy a box mod with TC for 316 stainless steel (it will be better if the mod have TCR mode).

All I need for my box mod are compact size and long lasting battery life.

So, is there any comparision between two parallel 18650 batteries box mod and two serial 18650 batteries box mod (or maybe a single 26650 box mod)? Which box mod will has last longer batteries life?

I just a flavor chaser so the maximum power that I ever tried was 30W. Almost my atomizer have single coil build deck.

I really like Esquare , Alien, Aegis and VT75 nano. Which mod that I should fall in love? :D

I got tired of always charging 18650's when I used mechs and unregulated boxes (usually a 4 cell 18650 mech box) and going through 8-12 cells in a day it would take all evening to charge them all. I ended up buying the bullet and ordered a lipo mod kit and built my own. I run a 3s 4000mAh lipo and a 4s 2800 mAh lipo (I bought 2 kits and built them). I can charge the lipos (takes and hour for both of them to charge from completely empty to full charge. That's charging 1 at a time) and it takes 2 days for them to discharge to empty.

Idk if you know or are able to solder but you can get a DNA 250 kit for $150 or a NLPWM kit for $125 from either Mod Kits or CNC DIY Kits. They have them on sale right now. If you want a mod either already built or want one that is already built you can take a look at CNC Mods or if you want a 3D printed box mod you can check them out here Mods. Maybe over your price range by a bit but these will be the last mods you will HAVE to buy (maybe not the last mod you WILL buy..lol).

That's without the lipo battery but you can buy the battery from FFM or where I get mine at is from (link to the 4000 mAh 3s lipo I use (Multistar High Capacity 4000mAh 3S 10C Multi-Rotor Lipo Pack). They have so many lipos there so if your interested in any of their mods or building your own and need help on choosing a battery just let me know and I will be more than happy to help you.

@ Tonee N , @ Eskie: I really love the Therion but I can not even touch it. This product can not be found by any dealers in my country. VT75 nano, Esquare and Epetite are the only products that have DNA board at my favorite dealer's store. Maybe I will buy Esquare, she looks great, hehe.:D

@ Wheelin247: I am very appreciate with your kindness but I live in Viet Nam, there is no hope to have any mod that you suggested :p. It is illegal to ship any kind of e-cig products through customs gate at the airport in my country. :(

@ rob33: Did you tease me? :p

No worries. I totally understand. Every bodies country is making a big deal over ecigs and trying to ban them. Not sure why, only thing I can think of is the tobacco companies pretty much run things and know that ecigs are a way to push BT out of the way. Freaking stupid I tell ya!

If you go for the Esquare, do try to get the DNA 60 version (same on the Epetite) as it supports eScribe software, which improves the functionality and customization over the older DNA 40 boards. If not, the VT75 nano will also support eScribe, but it has issues with the battery cap threading. I have a full size VT75, and like it, but it also has threading issues so I just always charge through the usb rather than swap batteries around.

@ Eskie: Thank you so much for the advise. Yup, there are DNA40 and DNA60 version for the Esquare at the store. I will pick a DNA60 version.
The VT75 nano is a good mod but as you said, the threading of battery cap on this mod made me crazy. I borrow this mod from my friend and I found that it is very hard to make the battery cap and the base capture together. By the way, the clip of the battery cap also made me crazy, it is just automatically close when I release my finger. I must hold the battery cap then turn the mod around to make they attach together.
