    Ok Y'all I'm looking for a new box mod with the built in batteries and leaning towards Innokin products right now. I'm thinking between the MVP 3.0 Pro and Cool fire iv plus. I just want to know if there is anything out there that is a good comparison. I'm looking for cheap (monetarily, not made ) and vv/vw. Any help is much appreciated.


    And another thing, Are the iSub tanks any good? I'm looking at either the G or Apex. And no, I am not looking to build myself at this point in time.;)

    I forgot to do this before lol
    I like the idea of a built in battery, but what happens when the internal battery won't charge anymore? The mod becomes a paperweight.
    I like the removable\replaceable option that those mods have :)
    There all fixeded now :lol:

    LOL Yeah but I do enjoy the convenience of the built in's. I don't have the money right now to buy a charger and extra batteries. Same reason why I haven't started DIY and making coils. ;);):) It why I love Innokin products, steady and durable. I was just wondering if there's anything else out there with the same dependability. :thumbs:

    By luck I went into a local B&M...they had a clearance sale going on :hubba:
    I picked un a MVP 3.0 Pro for $13 bucks...YES !!!
    So I had $$ to spare....lets look at a back-up tank....hhhmmmm
    Aspire Triton 2.0 for $9 and the RBA for it was $12.

    :w00t: HAPPY HAPPY :w00t:

    I've liked the innokin products I've had in the past. But like Kpr, I'm tending toward replaceable battery mods these days. I have an iStick 30 and an iStick 50 (working well, even after a year - despite a lot of other folks who have reported issues with theirs.)

    The MVP3.0 Pro runs you up to 60W; I think the CoolFire is only 40W. Don't know if that's a consideration. Can't comment on the iSub tanks as I don't have any. I have a handful of Subtanks (nanos and minis) and I actually use stock coils (or the original OCCs, which I can rebuild) I've had decent luck with the SSOCCs, too.

    Innokin Coolfire TC100W. Built in 3300mah battery, 100W with Temperature control, quick 2amp charging (like the Vaporsharks, which I find very very useful) and AFAIK is the only non-vaporshark mod that provides 2amp charging.

    Mike Vapes did a review. Biggest con is that some attys do not sit flush, leaving a slight gap.

    the coolfire 1V plus is now 70w. I just bought one and it's being delivered today so I will see how it goes. I like internal batteries because I'm too lazy to charge everyday. I have an evic 60 tc, istick 30 and 50, and a pegasus mini (external battery and tc) and they are all good for my vaping needs. I bought the coolfire because my isticks are probably coming close to the end of their lives but they've been excellent so far. If I have to buy something else to replace my internal battery mods in the future, then it's ok. I like to shop!

    Thanks y'all! I'm taking all your advice and sifting through it. Right now I'm sort of leaning heavily on the mvp 3 pro. I'll let you know what I get and I'll give my thoughts on it when I get it.:thumb::D

    You may want to give more thought into having a control circuit (protection PCB) to assure safe charging for your mod, I think there's a pretty good reason why they changed to this for the new Aethon chip Innokin Cool Fire 4 TC100W Aethon Chip Express

    Well I changed my mind :p I saw how awesome the iSub Apex is and I saw the clapton coils you can buy for it (all iSub tanks take the same heads) and how TiaVapes (youtube reviewer) likes it. And together on myvaporstore.com the whole kit with CoolFire iv plus with the Apex is alot cheaper than than the MVP3 pro kit (comes with iSub G).

    I guess I know what I am going to get now. Than you all for replying and giving me your opinions. Its very much appreciated. (I think you all have a bad influence on me, I was all set to grab the mvp 3 anyway but y'all just had to keep raving on the CF :lol::lol:) But seriously Thank you!!!


    PS Unless you can use something besides Ni coils for TC, I won't be able to vape TC. I'm allergic to Nickel.:cry: That's another rreason why I don't want a TC mod. :(

    We can use SS or Titanium or even the new ceramic coils for TC.
    Maybe more.
    Some batteries can do TC for kanthal but that might be finicky still.
    But you've made your decision! Thats great! Enjoy!
    Cheers.
    Oh! Sweet! I'm such a noob when it comes to this stuff. I was just using Tootle Puffer gear and hadn't really thought twice about anything else... But Now that I'm breaking through (after 3 yrs of vaping :facepalm:), I'm learning all new things.:blush: Thanks again :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

    I got my coolfire today - was so excited until I tried to turn it on. Nothing happened. Tried plugging it in and still nothing. Now I have to return it and wait for a replacement. I probably have to wait until next week now. :(
    Oh No! That really really sucks! :( I hope the replacement comes quickly. :thumb::nun:

    I must say I really like the looks of the Coolfire 4 TC as well, enjoy!

    I am sensitive to Nickel too and use titanium wire for TC vaping by the way, but if your mod supports SS in TC mode I would try that first to be honest. Titanium coils can be a little harder to wrap since the metal is pretty springy. Also, don't dry burn Ti if you use it as it would create a toxic layer of oxidation from what I understand.

    The Innokin coolfire IV plus is not TC. It does go up to 70 watts though. I have 2 tc mods. The evic VT tc mod 60w has internal batteries 5000 mah. It's a hefty mod but so far it's been great. Supports nickel and titanium in tc mode.
