For my next PV I want something that's affordable to replace for the what if factor. That's why I'm interested in the MVP, seems like a great deal bang for buck and there's MOSTLY good reviews. If you have or want to recommend something similar in price that has a good battery life and is VV, please let me know. Include a link if possible too, please.

+1 for the MVP! Love mine. I would also recommend the Vamo. V2 or V3. I have the V2 and it is great. I really like the V3's removable top ring though. Either way the Vamo is a winner for the money. That being said the MVP can't be beat for battery life. I can vape for 3 straight days on a single charge. I go through 2 charges on my Vamo with an 18650 in that time.

wow! if you're getting 3 days, that is intense. That's perfect for spontaneous people that like to vape.

and thanks guys, I was kinda expecting more MVP praise. I have mainly been debating between that and a pair of eGo twists. However I keep leaning towards the MVP because on a single charge it can outlast both of 'em.

One thing that hold me back on mods is the battery life. Still doesn't really compete with the MVP's. Being able to swap out batteries helps, but there's always that "what-if" factor.

I'll probably wind up ordering the MVP off Fasttech unless I come across threads or posts about people having issues with the ones being shipped from China.

I also like my MVP.


Pro's- Fits easy in pocket (not too tall, but wide), VV, Rugged body (I work construction and its still here).
Battery life (2-3 days!), USB output (can charge my phone)

Con's- Doesnt read Ohms (newer version may), Unserviceable battery (when the battery finally dies and wont hold a charge you throw the device away, Not sure when it will finally die.)

even though I don't have one, these are the cons from what I've gathered. If it read ohms, it'd be one of the best deals out there PERIOD. lol

and the battery.... I'm used to using cigalikes and eGos, so I'm accustomed to throwing batteries out. if I can get 6 solid months out of an iTaste MVP I'll be more than satisfied, and if any longer, friggin amazed! I was a pack a day smoker living in NY, spending at least\around $10 a pack. Anything vape related is cheaper than that analog per day rate.

Wow, great comments. Everyone says it is small, but it looks big and fat in pics.
How many recharge cycles are you thinking it will get?
I go through 2 EGO batts every 6-8 months anyway, so this isn't really more expensive that that. About equal to 3 EGO batts.
If I could get 9 months to a year I'd be money ahead with a better device. But it still seems BIG to my eyes.
Any comments?
