Itaste MVP and the AGA-T ... Advice and Opinions needed! (Current eVic user)

Hello/Wassup/Yaow-Wah from Sunny(although currently raining as of this thread) Malaysia!

I am a relatively new Vapor-RAWR! (started late last december) and I have a few questions for anybody using the Itast MVP and genny tank set up (everyone else is welcome to put down their opinions and/ suggestions). I am very interested with with the MVP. I love box mod styles and also the massive battery.

So here's my issue, I am using a AGA-T+ tank along with my eVic. I love my eVic, it's easy to use and easy to navigate also the features come in handy. What I don't love is how the battery drains when I got it on the genny tank screwed in. Essentially when I am at home I screw in the genny and then use my eVic. Though my battery will last about 45 mins to an hour. Which isn't amazing.

I am looking to purchase the MVP and switching over to it as the main. Sometimes when I go and hang out I would love to take a unit that will just last. While I am planning on buying a smaller battery tube for the eVic so it'll be easier to carry around.

Anyways! (Sorry been rambling a bit) ... the main question is:

1: Do you think the MVP is worth the purchase as a unit for genny tanks?
2: Or should I just switch up my eVic :laugh: to a more powerful after saving up some cash?

P.S.

Here's my pictures of my eVic that has absolutely been pampered!

Peace Guys! Any input would be welcomed!

You'll get roughly the same run time out of an MVP that you'll get out of an eVic with an equivalent 18650 battery (the MVP has a 2600mAh battery - probably better than the stock eVic battery which they also claim is 2600mAh, but a battery upgrade is cheaper than an MVP).

Running a higher resistance on your coil may also help extend battery life, but something's probably not right if you're only getting 45 minutes to an hour out of it.

That said, I love my MVP, and part of that is because it's never failed me, unlike my two dead eVics.

Hi Trick,

Hi Trick,

Thanks for the quick reply. I must say been looking at reviews online for the MVP and it is a very solid device from all reviewers. In terms of resistance then I think I might need to get a thicker khantal wire. Currently using 0.16 which seems to be only my supplier is carrying. I know it's a bit of a dumb q but would running a thicker wire mean bigger resistance?

I currently get 1.6-1.8 ohms from the genny and regularly vape at 4.5v. Well that is according to what the eVic is telling me. Yeah am actually worried the eVic is gonna suddenly die on me too (Running a 2200 mah bat along with the 1.2 firmware). Another reason to look for a second unit that will go through hell and back for me since I am a rather heavy vaper.

For higher resistance you need thinner wire, not thicker. Think of it like a water hose: the thicker the wire, the more electricity it will carry. The thinner it gets, the more it "resists" the flow of electricity. You can also lengthen the wire (by wrapping more of it) for more resistance.

1.6 to 1.8 ohms is fairly low for use use on a variable device. However, a nice thing about variable voltage/wattage devices is that you can increase the resistance and voltage and get the same wattage, and the same vape, which decreases the amps burned in the process, making the battery last longer.
