I am definitely not a fan of hcigar mods. At all. I've been a VaporShark fanboy forever but they stopped making mods and became resellers. VS was the only mods that have held up for me and I still use their DNA40, rDNA40 and DNA200. The Therion 75c I got last month is really nice and I've been impressed with it. The Lavabox M is on par with the VS and Therion as far as quality and for $40, it's a steal! If manufacturers keep this up, I won't have to build my own mods anymore :).

I'll keep that in mind for the future. I was going with the Inbox because I've always wanted to try two things: a DNA mod and a regulated squonker with tc. Figured that I could kill two birds with one stone, at a reasonable price. :)

The 'Burgh, PA.
Eleaf Pico Dual Kit Blowout (US) $17.97

Vaporbeast just dropped the price of the Eleaf Pico Dual Kit (includes Melo III Mini Tank) down to $19.97. That’s already a crazy low price, but this deal gets even better when you use coupon code “YEAHBABY” at checkout. That should bring the grand total down to just $17.97! Shipping is FREE when you spend $35 or more, so just buy 2 and you’ll be good to go!

Thanks, I darted over to the site and ordered one of those. Added in some batteries and cotton for free shipping.

Just got my 2 Lavabox M DNA75 mods today. I opened one up and I'm very impressed. The color is called "Blood Red" and it's a metallic red finish similar to my truck (Red Candy Metallic). I can see why there's a lot of complaints about the screen. The cover is tinted so the display is a bit dark and it's a fingerprint magnet. Not a deal breaker for me but I hope it doesn't scratch easily. The 510 looks like a mini VT 510 and should be good. It's about the same size as a VaporShark rDNA and slightly larger than a VT75. The magnetic door is solid. I think it's a very good looking mod and feels great in my hand.

I popped in a Samsung 25R and plugged it into eScribe to update and customize it similar to my other DNA75's and it vapes great. It's hard to believe this is only $40 shipped. If I didn't already have 16+ DNA mods, I'd order a few more.
I gotta agree; the Lavabox M is a nice, nice mod. It's way smaller than I thought it would be. Just slightly bigger than an Evic VTC Mini, but weighs noticeably less. Outside surface is grippy enough for me to use without a sleeve, yet is not the least bit uncomfortable to hold. It has a deep 510 connector that has a spring-loaded pin with a good amount of throw. Still getting used to the way the mod settings work, but I think I'll get there eventually. It didn't seem to like my .9x ohm SS316L builds.

Like you, the one thing I do not like is the smoked covering on the display that is way too dark for me. I need to put on my glasses to read the smaller info on the display even in dark room - which makes it the worst mod screen I own. My older eyes need a brighter screen.

I like the metallic red color - but then I've always liked black with red highlight combos. When I was in college, I painted my 10-speed bike black with blood red "pinstripes" at the fancy joints. One of my roommates liked the combination so much that he later bought a black car with red pinstripe designs. Then someone stole his car from a parking lot while he was out on a date... :unsure:

No more Lavabox, but I just saw this baby. Has it been discussed here yet? If not, any thoughts? Looks all itty bitty and comes with a DNA chip.

$68.32 Authentic VapeCige SD Nano 60 60W TC VW APV Mod - 1-60W / 200-600'F / zinc alloy / 1*18650 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

And it's a one-battery mod--I don't like those big 2- and 3-battery monsters.

For some reason, that screams cheap. I'm not a fan of die cast frames (like VT75).

$56.81 Authentic SBody Macro 75W TC VW APV Box Mod - 1-75W / 200-600'F(100-300'C) / 1*18650 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
They have Black, Pink and Silver. I have the DNA40 version in purple and it's a great little mod.

I'm with you. I'll take a single batt mod anyday (just for weight's sake).

This one's rather nice looking, Katya. I know nothing about VapeCige tho. I did read the discussions and there was some concern about the finish, I believe.

This one struck my eye for the light weight as well as the low 510. It is even lower than pico.
$28.61 Authentic Vaporesso Swag 80W TC VW APV Box Mod - 5-80W / 100-315'C(200-600'F) / 1*18650 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
I would much prefer a real DNA board but I have my eyes on this.

@DPLongo22 had his eye on this, too (not sure if he still does). Looks like a good pastability to me. A bit wide in the middle, but that's certainly not a deal breaker for most.

I really don't care for that battery cap on top of the mod. Same problem with Picos. I don't know why. I just don't like it. Go figure.

Welp, agreed. I believe the batt cap on the Pico is not KWITE that big/tall, but yeah, it's a tad unsightly and cumbersome.
