Need Help deciding ?

I am torn between these 2 which one is better?
[h=1]
innokin VTR or the innokin iTaste MVP V2.0??[/h]

It depends on what you are defining as better.

They are both exceptional. The main differences are an internal battery (MVP 2) and an external changeable battery (VTR). The ability to charge other devices (MVP 2). Size and weight, MVP 2 is smaller and lighter.

Otherwise, functionally they are pretty much identical for all major functions. I think it boils down to what you consider to be more important, and which one "looks" better to you. As always ... YMMV!

John, I can't comment on the MVP but I've got a VTR and couldn't be happier, it's solid, easy to use, performs flawlessly, and looks pretty cool in a transister radio/star trek phaser kind of way. The VTR comes with the iclear 30s tank (which I love), but the unit with tank/juice/battery is pretty hefty ... when I first got it I would have said heavy, but now that I'm used to it it's just hefty and well on it's way to simply solid. The reason I'd favor the VTR over the MVP is the ability to change to a backup battery when you need a recharge, rather than having to use a backup vaporizer while the MVP recharges. However, I don't think you can go wrong with either product.

Thanks! one quick question can the mvp be used while its charging up ? Or I have to wait to use it ?

I like the fact that I can change the battery on the VTR. Don't care too much for the limits on tank size without using the extension, but IMHO, it looks sharp and works pretty well with an IBTanked 19mm XL.

Yes the MVP can be used while charging. Just have to wait for the red light to go out. But once it turns to green you can vape it. I love my MVP. Use it and my ProVari daily.

Thanks for all the useful input !!

The thing I don't like about the VTR is not being able to use certain tanks or even a RBA with it. They basically do the same thing but the adapter for the VTR just looks ridiculous when you have to use it. The MVP is more lightweight and carry friendly in my eyes. The VTR is also a fingerprint magnet and is pretty hefty.

The VTR intrigue me because that's the style or setup I've been looking for, which is about stealth vaping - battery on one side and cartomizer on the other side. I was hoping they make an upgraded version of the gripper and I thought the VTR was the one. Most devices are getting ridiculously longer and longer. And the gripper solved it by putting the carto and battery side by side, which is what these manufacturers should be aiming at, imho. The 18350 is a small but resilient battery and it satisfies my vaping hobby.

I went to check the VTR on YouTube and it's not what I thought it was. And it's heavy according to the reviewer. So it's not for me. A nice modification of the gripper would be nice. It doesn't have to be VV.

Thank you everyone for all the useful input!! I decided to go with the mvp. For several reasons. I liked the battery built in and the price of course. While the VTR is more nicer looking it had a few limitations. Kinda of wish the two could meld into each other lol.

VTR 6 volts 15 watts, MVP 5 volts 11 watts. The only reason I didn't get a VTR is because the recessed 510 connection is so narrow you are limited on the atomizers that one can use without using the extender adaptor. If the choice was between those two though, I'd get the VTR no question. Replaceable battery and 15 watts of power. Can't remember the last time I vaped at 11 watts.

I'd go with the VTR as it has a removable battery. The MVP V2 is good aswell but has an internal battery. Both are made by the same company and almost all of their devices use the similar chipsets. The VTR can hold an iClear 30 down the side of the device that cuts down on size... and the iClear 30 is one of the best performing clearomizers. The MVP does not have as much power output as the VTR. Either choice would be good but I despise anything with non-removable batteries.
