New alternative to mvp 2

[michaelpet]

so, I have the mvp 2 that is running low on battery. Any good alternatives other than mvp 3 for charging (where is the cheapest?)
I have the xmac that works fine after the svd stopped working, but need someting for on the go with my aerotanks.

Not quite sure what you're asking michaelpet. Do you need something to replace the MVP2? If so, I've recently become an istick fangirl. I have the 30W and the 50W - LOVE the 50W (4400maH) as it truly lasts 2-3 days for me with my vaping style. Evape.us has some good prices on both devices. I like the 30W (2200maH), as it's a very compact device.

Im guessing your MVP2 no longer holds a charge like it used to.

If you must have usb charging and none-removable battery, then get MVP3 or istick 30w.

Since you live on planet "snow", i dont know whats the cheapest place in your land to get one.

 

[michaelpet]

yes, it is either istick or mvp 3 i guess.. Does the istick 30w charge other devices with usb?

By charging other devices via usb, you are wearing out the battery faster, so i wouldnt even recommend it.

7/11 sells usb cables and chargers dirt cheap.

I only used my mvp to charge my phone once because I had to. Probably shouldn't do it on a regular basis, but it was handy in an emergency

Ive done it as well, because cigarette lighter in my car turns off when i turn off the ignition. So i only got 50% charge out of MVP2 towards my cell phone even though mvp2 has a bigger battery capacity.

In my opinion the MVP sucks, I"ve had it and yet sold it, But that is a piece of crap and so is its brother the mvp3, get a better mod that will last and do what you expect it to do!

 

[juggler86]

Get an MVP3 or a Sigelli Mini30. Both super nice, but if I was going to pick 1 id go with the Sig since you wont run into the problem i think youre having again.

Ya because they arent 1 of the most reliable mods ever made. The only downfall is the internal battery.

Yeah, I have to agree. For a cheap mod, they are solid.

I've owned the MVP 1.5 and 2, and I still prefer the iSticks for size/weight/ergonomics. The MVPs have lasted well over a year, however and continue to work, so they are a solid device.

There is also the Beyang 30 watt, or Heatvape Defender: Defender - Heatvape

Plenty of choices these days, unlike a year ago.

You could also look at the MVP 20W. Same price as the MVP 2.0 ($30-35) but it has the spring-loaded 510 connector, an extra 9w of power, and better circuitry than its predecessor. Check out 101Vape or Mt. Baker Vapor for good prices.

If you have your heart set on the iStick, the best place to get one would be Rocky Mountain Vapor. Use the code "FORUM" for 15% off, and be sure that you select Free Shipping when asked. Eleaf Istick Kit : Rocky Mountain Vapor, The Mountain top of Electronic Cigarettes

Well that was informative.

My last mod purchase was well north of $500.00 (for the mod) and I still highly appreciate the quality, accuracy and reliability of the 4 mvp 2.0s I've purchase for an average of $40.00 each.

MVP 2.0 fan for a long time, went through 3 of them, switched to istick and I like the ergonomics better.
It's just more comfortable in my hand.
Can't knock the MVP 2.0, served me well for a long time.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I respect that, but calling the MVP2 a crap device is kind of taking a shot at entry level devices that are meant to be easy to use and inexpensive.

I probably won't buy another innokin product because I'm more into upgrading and getting something unique at this point, but I will always recommend an innokin product to someone who doesn't have anything.

I remember all the buzz about the MVP3 and if I recall correctly Evolv and Innokin colaborated on the device, and it's well under $100.

I'm thinking of getting a 2nd MVP 20w and saving my istick for times I'll be out. I just prefer the solid feel of the MVP and somehow I think it just works better. Just my preference of course.

 

[michaelpet]

yes the mvp has been solid for me. I have used the charge device at times when the phone was almost empty, and forgot the Xiaomi power bank.

Ran out of power on the phone once and had to buy a usb recharger that takes AA batteries, expensive when retail.

So why not go for the MVP3? I know there are a lot of istick fans, but they aren't particularly without issues. (ETA: The isticks, not the istick fans!) The MVP's have been rock solid (both the ones I own, and judging from posts on ECF).
