Right folks I'm seriously hovering over the buy button on a black and silver Ml. It's a choice between this and a vaporshark dna200 (iffy build quality) and a wismec reuleaux dna200 (lost its appeal seeing it sold for so little with the rx200 chip in) not keen on any other dna200 mods all seem a bit cheap.

So do you recon I'm making the right choice, help a Fellow Vaper out here!

If you know someone selling the DNA200 Reuleaux for the same amount as a RX200... please give me the link! DNA200 version is ballpark $130-140 and RX200 is around $40.

Haha, I wish! I meant I wouldn't feel happy paying £130 in the UK for it when the rx200 version has gone for as little as £26.

The RX200 is a real bargain but it makes the dna200 reuleaux seem like a rip off.

Ahh... well, between my wife and I (me using the majority), we have 7 DNA200's, 2 of those being Reuleaux, and I picked up the RX200. While it's an incredible device for the money, a DNA200 it is not. I don't feel ripped off at all between the Reuleaux versions. We also have 2 SXMM's - they're great and I'm sure the ML will be just as nice as with a few new bonus features. I don't think you can go wrong with either one... it comes down more to your vape style and how much battery capacity you want.

I think the ML is the best 75 watt and under mod on the market today. I only have 2 minor complaints about it. 1. It's a little heavy in the pocket. 2. You have to use a coin on the battery cap. Those are minor complaints I can easily live with. :)

Thanks for your input, really interested in your opinion, are the bodies and build quality identical on both reuleaux ? I've seen close ups of the rx200 and the 510 looks like the one on the evic vtc mini which was a little dissapointing, is it the same on the dna200 version? I absolutely love the look and shape of the Reuleaux, I think the dna200 version is by far the nicest colour scheme too just £105 seems steep to swap the rx200 board for the dna200.
I rarely go over 30 Watts, im interested in very good temp control that can also be dialed in via a pc. Reliability is also a big factor and people seem to rave about the sx which also has a 6 month warranty.
How would you compare build quality between the sxmm and the Reuleaux dna?

Cheers

Besides the color, the only difference is the RX200 has a flush screen and the DNA200 version is under the body of the mod. While I do prefer a mod having the full 510 pad which these don't, the pin seems to have a really good spring. As far as build quality, I'd say they're close... all of my Reuleaux devices look good, but I've seen some pictures of others that had some gaps here and there. That being said, the exact same thing holds true for the SXMM's... ours arrived just fine, paint has held up great, but there's been pictures posted of flaking paint and minor gaps in the fitment. I think my overall biggest complaint with the SXMM was battery life and the changing of the batteries. The battery life issue for my vaping style was pretty much taken care of by the addition of ECO mode, but I hated changing the batteries on them. I had a Boxer with the YiHi 350J chip which took care of the battery swap problems, as well used dual 18650's so it could go a full day even with my heavy amount of vaping... then my wife's cousin tried it and just had to have it so I sold it to him.

At just 30ish watts, I think you'd be happy with either one.

Thank you for taking the time to reply, you can't beat real world reviews, from actual owners of mods that have spent their own hard earned cash.

I trust you tube reviewers less and less these days! I think they both sound quality, and i love the look of both, each offering different qualities.

There is only one solution it has to be the sx mini ml class........

Go for the SXML, I would get one if I didn't have the SXM and soon a DNA200 Reuleaux. For your vaping style it would work well. Heck, I may buy one anyway.

I've only had my ML for a 10 days but the finish seems durable to me. Battery life is great. I get about a day and a half usage out of it. I'm using a AW 3000mAh battery and a Uwell Crown tank with a 1.2ohm coil running at 30watts. I chain vape and even wake up several times a night and hit it a few times and go back to sleep. :vapor:
Pulled the trigger on the ML. Thanks again for clearing those things up!

Stan I'd and am going with the ml class dna200 is fine if you like being tethered to a PC to fine tune everything but I just want to turn the mod on and vape not run half a dozen tests or analysis and now the ml class is going to have customisable screens you don't have to lose out on that front.

I don't think you can go wrong on an SX. I have 6 including my S and 5M's and considering getting a couple more. Right now I have 2 that I set up the way I vape and put them away because I believe the government it going to change the vaping industry and bury it except for cigalikes. I've found my perfect vape after 6 years actually close to 7 with the SXMM and Kanger STM's and Ti wire. I don't even look anymore. I have a friend who bought a Reauleux DNA200 and an RX200 at the same time. He said they don't feel the same in the hand and the RX doesn't even com close on TC vaping he is sending it back as defective. I think he should have tried and SX. There is still a few M's out there my oldest is almost a year old and so far absolutely no problems. I may try an ML but I am not sure it is worth $30 extra. I may get a couple of boards just in case. Eventually the board will wear out but like my PC's still going strong after 6 years, if you take care of things they last.

I hear you there! I'm not sure what will happen with the industry, but as far as future-proofing, a mech mod is the route I'm taking. I'm sure I'll be done vaping by the time all my electronic and mechanical mods die on me. Plus, I quit smoking without the assistance of vaping the second time around, so quitting vaping shouldn't be such a large hurdle by comparison.
Took me quite a long time to get a vape I liked as well. I quit vaping for a couple years while it grew up a bit from the carto tank days, and jumped back in right about the time subtanks came out. Between my bellus and subtank mini (which is collecting dust), I don't hunt for toppers anymore, just mods.
Glad to hear your M-class is still going strong a year after purchase. I was a bit hesitant due to my last experience with higher-end mods. My only issue with the ML is going to be that I'm on a mac, so getting the SXi-Q up and running will be a bit annoying.
As long as the hype I'm hearing of the government preparing for a solar flare impacting electronics on a large-scale is in fact false, think we'll be good to go! *wraps mod in lead shielding* Keep in mind also, that people will still be selling off mods on forums/locally, and others hoarding them if the industry goes under.... so availability will remain after whatever happens for a time at least. Cheers

Got the ML in last night. Thing is heavier than I thought it'd be. I taste a lot of airy metallic something or other off the bellus with dual Ti coils, so I'll visit that more later. Subtank mini tastes clean with a Ti build, and temp control seems very accurate. Love the build quality, aside from the battery cap. Not a big enough con to steer away from, but it is a bit fiddly at first. Bought a silicone sleeve off eBay that was meant for the M-class, but it fits decent until an official is released. Overall very pleased!
