New to vaping. APV suggestions, please! :D

[Avonin]

Hello,

I've been vaping with cheap eGo batteries for quite some time now, and, this Christmas, I'm looking to drop around $150 on a high end APV. I'm appealing to you experienced vapers to suggest to me their favorite APVs in that price range (including a tank), along with any pros and cons of the unit.

Thanks!

Hi and welcome,

This is the advice I wish I had been given:

Reos Mods


Simple, reliable, small and almost indestructible...

hello n welcome.
i like my 26650 hades clone, with 28.5mm Tobh Atty both clones both by Tobeco.

that is WAY under your price range. but..........i love'm.

What features are you looking for? For your first step up from eGo style batteries, I would look into the MVP3. Not crazy advanced or complicated, but just enough to get your feet wet and expand your vaping experience.

I'm looking to make a one-time investment into the Mercedes of vaping, ideally. I would like a durable tank that doesn't leak, and variable voltage. Other than that I'm open minded. I simply want your opinion of the best of the best within the price range of $150.

I'm also quite the geek,and am willing to learn whatever it takes to operate even the most advanced of units. I'm pursuing this as a hobby. Not just as an alternative to smoking cigarettes.

Hello Avonin and welcome to the ECF family. Happy vaping.

If that's the case, look into a DNA40 mod. A tad over 150, but IMHO, its a game changer. Get yourself an RDA, some nickel wire, learn to make coils, then vape away.

 

[Avonin]

That DNA40 looks amazing. I might just have to expand my budget. Anybody else have any other suggestions?

 

[Avonin]

Is there a place I can purchase the DNA40 already installed in one of the cases like in the tutorial video on EvolVapor's site?

OK...my . My personal favorite mod is the Vamo V6. I like it because it is simple to use but still loaded with great useful features. And it won't break the bank. (the V7 is available now but I'm not sure how much difference there is between the two) I also like dripping with my Tugboat RDA because it has a good design and deep drip well. But my only tank is a Kayfun Lite which holds a lot of juice but can be a little picky about how you wick it. If you want a tank you don't have to build coils then I suggest an Aspire CE5-s. And that is my

There are numerous mods with them installed slready. VaporShark rDNA, HanaModz DNA40, Vapor Flask, amd ProtoVapor are the few that come to mind. Just to forewarn you though, this is the Merc Benz of mod technology right now. It is a very advanced chip is extremely capable of delivering amazing performance. That being said, using Ni200 to make coils is a different animal. I was making some the other night coming in at .06 ohms. Which, seems dangerous, but the DNA40 chip will only use temp control on Ni200 wire. Once the Ni200 is heated, resistance goes up, the devce adjusts power accordingly.

If this is a viable mod, read read read.

I have several dna40 mods and absolutely love them! The most affordable out through box ready to glad would be the vaporshark rdna at www.vaporshark.com I have 3 rdnas and a couple of dna30s from them as well. The dna30mod from vaporshark with lipid battery is 120 right now and about the size of a pager. (Small mods in the pic) the larger one are not much bigger I'll put a pic as well The rdna40 with 18650 lasts me all day with no worries and is just a fantastic mod and my personal favorite . The best part is you can use a dripper or tank and cape any way you want. An erlkonigin clone K's fairly cheap between 30-40 dollars on eBay and a fantastic tank at 22w. It's a bit tricky to wick bit plenty of help on ecf from owners and plenty of you tube videos to help also.

Also right now till midnight...
Coupon code: " cybermonday "at vaporshark puts the rdna40 at 152.00 and the dna30 at 96.00....
Both are phenomenal deals!!!!! Especially considering the cost of the board alone.

Sigelei 100 watt and a Lemo. Long battery life. High wattage you may never use but, 40 watts is not enough power for that kind of money. The new version of the Sigelei 100 is coming with some design improvements and a silicone sleeve for 109. i previously use a reddit10 discount code on this site not sure if it still works but worth a try.

Sigelei 100W (PLUS) Box Mod - Eciggity

If you arent looking rebuildable then the new Aspire Atlantis is the latest cloud machine even the dripper folks are raving about.

After the holidays I am also part of the Reo crowd I want a woodvil really bad.
