Sigelei 150w is a beast!

[evanreynolds1116]

If anyone is on the fence about buying a Sigelei 150w... BUY IT.

This thing has been great so far. Absolutely no problems and I like it much much much better than my hana modz dna 40. For $110, it's as good or better. All the problems other people have had with this thing, I have experienced none of them. I was vaping for four days with a .2 ohm build on the Doge v2 running between 60w-80w and it still had 50% battery life. The performance is ridiculous, especially for it's price tag. I'm so happy I didn't waste money by over paying for a VaporShark or Vapor Flask. Just because something is more expensive, it doesn't mean that it is better...

Yea, I just got mine this week and it's barely left my hand. I got the troll on mine right now and some vanilla custard on tap it seems.

Ive used 1 plenty of times and love it but to me the 150w is unneeded. I might buy 1 in the future, but ATM my Ipv Mini2 is fine if needed to do more then my Sig30.

 

[inswva]

Were you using the TP feature of your Hana?

It's not exactly an apples-to-apples comparison. I owned a Sig100 and Sig100+ and currently own a Hana V4d - drastically different devices. The Sigs were great boxes, for sure, but comparing them to a Hana, VS, or VF is kind of missing the point of those devices.

Just got a sig 150w oni edition about 4 days ago and absolutely love it. Its instant ramp up on any coil. Its all based on opinion and use. If i was running a .4 nichrome build at 30-40 watts ya the temp control of the hana would be awesome. But I build supper low big coils. Fused claptons mainly or 24g parallels. And vape 40-90 watts depending on resistance of my build. Its all what you like. I like a lung full of nice flavorful warm vapor, so the sig 150w is my go to. That or a mech if im getting lower.

Vape on and vape safe!

 

[sedition]

It's definitely awesome, I love mine. But the battery life you mentioned.. 4 days at 0.2ohm, 60 - 80w with 50% left? I get about most of a day out of both Samsung 25Rs and VTC4s running at 0.3ohm / 50w.

 

[Ren76]

I'm using a 100+ running at 40 watts and duels @ 0.3 ohms
I hit 50% within 12 hours on Sammie 25r's.
I'm a vape hog lol.

Yeah same here, I can drain two vtc4s in my sig with a .4 build in one night easy. I try to find a medium with my builds so I can get a good vape on both my mechs and regulated but more and more I'm thinkin about ditching mechs altogether just because of how these super low builds kill my batteries so fast. More on topic though yeah it's a great mod, been using it very heavily for about 3 months now and has never acted up on me, seems very durable as well considering I've already dropped it a couple times

Considering that the VaporShark and the Vapor Flask only goes up to 40 watts, I don't think you would have been able to run a 0.2 ohm build on the Doge v2 at 60w-80w if you went with them.

Oh yeah I'll definitely never use 150w but the 100w boxes had some issues with the button.

I mean yeah I vape on and off throughout the day and my buddies are always using my vape as well. MXJO's in mine.

I honestly didn't think I'd need/want more than 40w until I used the Sigelei haha

 

[richboyporter]

Ya Im running 2 LG HE4'S and at 50w i can run about a full day on a .1-.2 build a solid 10-13 hours depending on how heavy I vape. But at 70-100w battery life drops lol. I have 2 set's in rotation so im never dead.

 

[freeall]

Why use . 1's and .2's when you can have 1.5 to 2 ohm coils with the same results? I use the the sigelei daily and can chuck cloudz if needed with a 1.8 just as good as good as anything else.

 

[Jer213]

I got my a Sigelei 150 one week ago. As my first VW mod, I have to say it is really good. I have not touched a mech mod since I got it. I have no problems with it.

 

[richboyporter]

I can honestly say that you can not put out the same cloud with 1.8 coil as me with dual 24g parallels at .1 ohms. There is a reason why cloud chasers build so low.

Cloud chasing is a hobby of mine, it's surely not my ADV.

Lower gauge wire= more surface area and lower resistance. Hotter coil more vapor.

Not picking a fight. But I will bet my left arm you won't produce as much thick dense vapor with a 1.8 ohm coil. Vs a .1 ohm parallel 24g. Or dual fused claptons is ridiculous.

What ever satisfies your vaping needs, is awesome. I like to blow clouds from time to time.

Just as long as your safe and happy I don't care what's under your hood.

Vape on and vape safe!

2 ohms in a dual coil setup using 28 gauge Kanthal would not be warm enough for me at 100 watts and I don't like to go thinner than 28 gauge wire. It would work with a single 26 gauge coil but would need 15 wraps on a 3mm pin. 1.5 ohms would still not be good, but better. I wouldn't go down to 0.1-0.2 though either

So what's wrong with 0.2 ohm setups?

 

[freeall]

There's nothing wrong with them. I just figure with regulated mods, a person doesn't really need to go to such low resistance to get heavy vapor. Pumping tons of vapor into my body just because it's do able, doesn't mean I'm going to. But, I guess it's all personal preference. I vape heavy, all day, but I don't blow heavy clouds, either.

But, who am I kidding, most people build these super low builds for whatever their reason is.

But hey, vaping is still ' better than smoking ', right? Heh..

And your 100% right vaping is better than smoking.

I like and feel safer building lower in a regulated mod than a mech.

Especially with 2 batteries.

My ADV is a 24 single fused clapton. ( 2 parallel strands of 24g kanthal wrapped with 34g kanthal. 0.2 ohms. At 45-55 watts is a nice ADV for me.

But I get crazy sometimes and like to Chuck some clouds. Things get pretty low.

I know OHMS LAW and safety. Amp load and all.

I'm as safe as I can possibly be.

Vape on vape SAFE

For folks who wish to run at the higher power ranges, a lower resistance build is mandatory. Let's assume the max output voltage of the Sig 150 is 8V (I'm not sure what it actually is, but it's likely in that neighborhood), your 1.5ohm build is going to max out at ~42W before hitting the board's output voltage limit. To take advantage of the power potential, a sub-ohm build is required.

Not directed at you freeall, but, since this seems to come up a lot, atomizer resistance has nothing to do with battery current drain (amp draw) in a regulated VW mod. Given the same battery voltage and power setting, a .5ohm build won't pull any more current from the batteries than a 1.0ohm build. There is nothing inherently unsafe about running very low sub-ohm builds on these devices. As long as you are using coil resistances within the boards operating parameters, it's all good. The whole "OMG, sub-ohm DANGERZ!" thing is a carry over from mech mods and simply doesn't apply to regulated VW mods.
