P10 or P16 or P18

[J-ShaZzle]

Which one should I order?

I am really in love with size of the P10, but heard battery life is horrible. So I don't think this is an option for me.

The P16 seems to be the right size for me, but I want to be able to experience a 6 volt if I'm going to buy a mod.

I am really leaning towards the P18. Mainly b/c it has the option of 6 volt. The problem is I read that stacking batteries can be dangerous. I will obviously be buying protected and recommended batteries regardless of which unit I buy. (I have also done a lot of reading on how to charge and maintain batteries, but again... this will be my first experience).

I'm also leaning towards the brass option bc it just looks awesome. The problem is the brass parts aren't covered by the lifetime warranty. Should I really be worried about the brass tarnishing or should I just get all stainless steel?

Does the charger Trustfire TR-001 charge one or two batteries at a time?

My order total is - $208.91
This includes the P18, battery, charger, and drip tip.
I'll still have to buy the other batteries if I wanted to go 6 volt... which isn't that big of a deal for me.

Money isn't that big of a concern for me bc I been putting in some overtime at work. So I figured I would treat myself to something nice. This is going to be my first mod and first expensive PV purchase. So if you can help me with my decision, it would be really appreciated. I have pretty much made up my mind and will be ordering of these beautiful PVs.

The TR-001 will charge two batteries at once.

The P-18 is your only option for >4.2v and the brass is all about what you want.
I went all stainless on the P16 and couldn't be happier with my decision. Just not into HV anymore. The size of the P16 is everything I was looking for in a PV. Even though it's Stainless I'm still able to shirt pocket the unit at work.

I have thought about getting a P18 but I have 18650 mods and don't use them because of the size but that's just a personal preference...

Super-T is a great choice no matter which one you get. I can say without question that you'll be happy with your purchase and it'll last longer than any of us here.
Seeing them online just doesn't do justice to the fit and finish of the unit in hand.

Get the one you want now. Once a production run is over it's rare that it'll ever be available again. A good example of that is the Super6. Glad I got one when I did...

If you like the P10 for its size but the battery life is to short for you then I would go with a P16 with the AW batteries offered on the Super -T sight. Then go and try out the LR 510 atties. The LR 510 atties are pretty close to the same feeling as a 5v setup but they are known to burn out pretty quickly.

Also ask yourself do the 510 regular batteries with regular 510 atties are good enough for you? If it is then the P16 will be perfect for you. You will get a little more vapor than your 510 batteries and the 16340 batteries will last at least 6 hours.

If you want much warmer vapor and if you want to drip every 3 to 5 drags then go with the 6v option. Just remember that your attie will need to stay wet at all time or you will burn out your attie quick.

I would say though if you haven't tried a mod yet I would go with the P16 first and then later on if the 16340 battery is not good enough for you then go with the 6v option...

Because you obviously want something small because you like the P10. So go with the P16 and later on venture into the 6v world if you feel up to it.

I hope this helps..........

My opinion...
I am going with the P18 in all stainless. I really like having a lifetime warranty. In all actuality, as long as you take care of the brass(noalox on the threads and cleaning regularly), you will probably not have any problems but, I personally would rather have the lifetime warranty, even though I like the way the brass looks. Also, the brass really is kind of a pain to keep clean as I have another mod that has brass parts. If you do not mind the maintenance then go for it! Size to me is not a problem and I also must have HV capabilities. The way I look at it is why not have the option of both 3.7 and 6 and while you are at it, you get a lot longer battery life out of the 18650 bat. Another thing I have noticed about mods is that they usually look bigger in the pictures than they do in real life so you might actually be surprised by the size of the p18. I guess I am being a bit presumptuous since I have not received mine yet but with all of the other mods I own, this was the case. Just my opinion and you should definitely weigh the pros and cons and decide what is best for you. Good luck.

I believe you have already made your choice, which is a good one

I have to second that. Presently I am using the P18 at 3.7V with 510 cartos (vacation) battery life 29hrs+ But I do like that I have 6-7V capability, which I know I will use at home.

If one was to go for an extended WE, he/she would need:

• P18
• an extra 18650
• and 10-15ml of liquid (more liquid of course if ya vape more).

I personally favor the P26...oops...wrong thread;-)

I think the p16 is the sweetest of them. It combines a compact size with a good battery and if you want more hit, you can run a low resistance atomizer.

Got my P16 in today and man I love it. I've been using the 16340 battery for a year now and I absolutely love it. So combine the 16340 and the P16, I'm in vaping heaven right now. The size is perfect and with no complaints here. It is a little weighty compared to aluminum but it's nothing I can't get use to.

I have to admit, I think my S6 has been replaced........

And David did I here your coming out with the P26.... holy freaken cow man, you can go on camping trip for 3 or 4 day weekend with that one battery lol....

You running a LR atomizer Grimdog?

Does that mean that your S6 might be going up for sale?

There is one in the classifieds right now but they want 250 with a bunch of batteries ect... just thought i'd let you know.

 

[Vaporologist]

$250? Ouch! For $300 I can have P18 and P16. Thanks for looking out

 

[grimmer255]

I do have some but I've been stuck on Boge 510 cartomizers and kr808 premium cartos which have a lower resistance than other cartomizers and they are kicking out a ton of vapor with the P16.

I will be making an order soon for the AW 16340 batteries you have on your sight... I'm down to two batteries but those previous batteries lasted a long time over 6 months with heavy heavy use.

It would take an act from God to pry the S6 from hands..................................


but I do have a GGTS v1 for sale without the GG logo.......... but I modified it so its only for the 510.... at the time I only used 510's and with its adjustable attie deal it made the GGTS way to long and somewhat of a pain to use. Because I busted several 510 conection on that GGTS until I modified it so it had hardly any movement in the center post. Since then I had no more busted atties.

Somehow I knew what your answer was going to be. But I didn't know that it would still be possible if I start praying really hard and receive God's assistance in this matter, hehe.

I know, right? If you are selling somethin used, it should be for used prices but I guess he could say that it is a collectors item now that they are not made anymore.

Sorry to get off topic but I guess this post has pretty much been answered anyways.

lol.... yea I love that S6.... but I will say the P16 is about 1mm or so wider than the S6 and the P16 is shorter as well. If you like that size I would go for it unless your a 6v vapor. But I wouldn't be surprised if David brings out a 6v sleeve for the P16.

 

[Vaporologist]

I ordered the P18 last week because I do prefer 6V but I'm considering getting the P16 as well. The extension sleeve for the P16 would be sweet. I own a device which uses that concept and it's a great option to have.

yea an extension sleeve or even a sleeve by itself for the 6v on the P16 would awesome.

 

[forcedfuel50]

I can not do an extension sleeve as the threads are internal and the wall of the tubing too thin, to screw an extension into internal thread would then not allow you to insert a battery. I'd have to start with a thicker mod wall diameter to begin with, which you know how i feel about that;-).
