Longevity of high wattage mods?

[gummybear00]

High wattage mods seem to be all the rage now. My question is how durable are these high wattage mods? With high wattage won't the batteries die out faster?

How long have you guys had your high wattage mods working in good condition?

I suppose if one ran them at max wattage all the time, there is some potential of damage to the chip. I have a Sigelei 100 watt that I've had since they arrived on the market and it's doing just fine. However, I have rarely cranked it up very high, I mostly run it at 35 watts with an Atlantis tank. I have the 150 watt, but have a 0.7 Ω build on a Tugboat that I'm running at 45 watts for flavor. I have a series 26650 mech box, that will push some SERIOUS watts if you build low on it, but I am running a .54 Ω build that gets me over 150 watts. On both of the Sigs, I'm still running the same batts that I married in them at first with no drop-off of vape life per charge. Rotating the batts every charge keeps them healthy so it's claimed, time will tell I suppose.
