So my year old canamodz 30 is finally going out on me after being abused in my climbing harness being dropped of towers and what not. But there is so much out there now I don't know where to start in looking to replace it. I've been to a few b&m and can't seem to find anything that fits the specs I want.

I am looking for a device that can obviously take a beating. I would love something over 30 watts now that my building skills are a lot better and I have a decent collection of kanthal. That part is pretty easy. The last request is something that has a usb charging port as I Do a lot of road travel and don't always have an extra battery or charging station.

Simple enough I guess, I just get so lost searching trying to find something out there. I've looked at the seiglei 100w but the lack of charge port kills it for me. I would love to see a cloupor t6 but no one local to me has one. Is there anything else out there that you guys would recommend

I've got an IPV Mini II 70 watt device that has a USB charging port and has plenty of power for most applications. You might check it out. My only complaint with it is the rather short battery life (single 18650) that will give me about 4 hrs @ 60-70 watts of heavy use. I rarely use the USB port, however. If I kept it plugged in at work or in the car it might help.

Yea 4 hours isn't long enough. And had a friend who's mini didn't last too long

My mini and mini II last full days weather I vape at 27.5w on my subtanks or 45 on my delta. Don't go much higher that often though. Check out the iStick 50w. It feels way more premium than the old 20w did and its smaller than you expect. Once you hold it, for the price, you'll want one.

I don't recommend the Cloupor t6. The reviews have not been favorable.

You might like the Sigelei 50W v2r. I've seen it under $60 a couple of places. I got mine for $55 from Vaporrange.

Ok so I'm loving my Sigelei 50w v2 (found mine for $60) as well and it charges via usb. It's a vast improvement on my Cana across the board. Very solid build quality and comes with a protective silicone sleeve which is nice at work. I get a full day at work vaping at 50w but your mileage may vary of course. If you have a usb port handy throughout the day, you should be just fine. If not, you can pack an extra battery...the sliding door makes it very easy to switch out the battery.

The problem with the higher watt mods is that they require dual batteries and that, in turn, removes the option of charging by USB.

If battery capacity is your primary concern, the istick 50w is a good choice. If you want more power, the ipv mini v2 70w is a contender, but I don't think the build quality is as nice as the Sigelei.

I've been using a sigeli 100+ for a while now and really enjoy it. These days I'm starting to feel oldschool because I'm a do or die reo user, so I'm used to charging batteries with a dedicated charger. The sigeli 100+ has that fancy magnetic door so it's really easy to pop it off and recharge. At 70 watts, the pair of 25r batteries I'm using last me like a week, but I use my reos just as much. I do want something smaller and am eying the ipv4. My friend has one on the way so I'll wait to see what he thinks about it
