Looking for suggestions for a new mod

[steeledragon78]

So just for reference, im not a noob looking to get the standard "get a provari" shpiel. I do own a couple of inexpensive mods, 3 vamos, 1 evic, 2 k101's and 1 what i think is a bad copy of an Iseason. what im looking for in a mod is a tough body and electronics, threads that arent going to strip out from removing my KFL to refill it (which is what killed one vamo), the ability to run on atleast 18650 and 350 batteries, telescopic is an option as i have some 18490's too, and preferably have it be sub $100.

With all that being said, i currently am running mainly agr carto tanks with the airflow base, so airflow control isnt a priority. and i am exploring options for other attys like my KFL, so the ability to stand up to good stainless threads is an absolute must.

i thank you all in advance for any suggestions you have.

Have you looked into the MVP2 yet? I have the MVP1 and it is pretty durable.

There's the Innokin SVD, telescoping APV. $80 at aquavaporcig.

It's interesting that you start your post with I don't want the standard get a Provari answer, then proceed to perfectly describe a Provari.

Ruggedly built.
Best electronics of all VV Tube Mods.
Tough as nails threads.
Expandable battery choices with the addition of end caps.
Fits most juice delivery devices.

It seems you want a Provari that isn't a Provari.

Good luck with that.

You described the SVD (37 bucks from FT)........

I wont say the "P" word since you dont want to hear it...... but I would get one or the other. I have both. Both work well. One is just built VERY, Very well.

thats funny

best device I've owned is my provari V2. I do love my mvp V2 though.

OP should take a look at the mvp v2. Busardo didn't give it enough break in time before he blasted the stiff fire button on the mvp v2. It breaks in fine after a while and is a non issue for me. great device for the price.

i have nothing against the provari, the pricepoint is the only thing holding me back on that. this current purchase is to replace a fallen warrior in my arsenal. i had planned a provari around tax time.

Sounds like you are looking for something in a smaller form factor that is vv/VW. Although I do not own one, the MVP is probably your best bet. As far as Atty's, I just received the new Fogger v2 last week and like it better than the Hercules or other clones of similar design. I guess it is a knock off of the Foggati with the addition of built in air control. Cost is about $40.00. The MVP v1 are cheap right now, but the v2 is not that expensive

 

[steeledragon78]

i picked up a v1 fogger and nearly embedded it in my wall from trying to keep it from shorting, is the v2 any easier to build on?

I've got one of these: EA clone by EHpro - Vape Toy , it worked right out of the box and I don't think a hammer would do much damage.

I totally understand this. I was in a similar head space. I need something better, don't want to buy a disposable VV. But the Provari is just too expensive. I kind of built a resentment against Provari. I was getting ...... at all the posts about it. But I kinda wanted to get something GOOD.
What I did was look for a used one. I live in Los Angeles. Huge vaping community here. So, it wasn't hard to find a good deal on a used one. I found mine on Craigslist. This Forum has a classified section where used Provaris appear once and a while. The is Calivapers Forum, where they seem to sell and trade a lot of gear. There are other sources if you look hard enough.

For $150 bucks I got a used Mini in great shape, with crappy batteries and a crappy charger, and my vaping experience improved greatly. This thing is a tank! Yet small. It is so precise! I love it.

Still, a budget is a budget.

Good luck in your decision and purchase.

The SVD is a great mod. It's solid, and fits everything you seem to be looking for. It's not the prettiest mod but it can take a beating and not even bat an eye. I don't care about catching flack over not being a fan of the Provari but it's dated at this point. I'd rather buy a good DNA20 mod for that price..

This. For what you want, you can't beat the SVD at $37.

sigelei zmax flat top v3 or v5(I have both-get the v5). best sub$100 telescoping mod. and I have never had a problem with either one. the v3 is coming up on a year. built solid, takes any battery, clean lines, well designed. the v5 has removable top and new menu system. everything looks good on it, especially a kayfun

 

[steeledragon78]

so, i ended up getting a mvp v2, and picked up 2 SID from a friend, both hit pretty hard. looking at the threads though, they suffer from the same drawbacks as the vamo, brass base material and chrome plating. seems they cut the threads wide and once you wear off the chrome you cant thread anything (what happend with my vamo). i am curious, does the svd or even the provari suffer from this?

 

[BernieVideo]

Never read a post about thread problems with the Provari.

Another fan of SVD. Excellent build, spring loaded 510 pin, color lit power button indicating battery status, adjustable battery compartment, and very pretty. The internal electronics is not perfect, but is probably the best out of China. Keep in mind that it's taller wider, and heftier than your vamo. Fasttech for $37
