If charging thru usb cable is what you want, you may want to check out smy260 which uses 3 batteries so it may last you longer even without charging, and if you are not crazy enough to hit up 260 watts in every puff. :) I am not sure how well it performs but there's a smy 260 thread so you can ask the owners. SMY 260 and ipv4 are on my wish list, lol, vaping is getting expensive.

Yay! Finally a thread on this device, I can't make one yet.

I'm coming from an iTaste vv3 to the Sig 50w Vr2 black, I've had it a couple days & I love it. Going from an ego to this is just Wow. I've held a 100w old version & I thought it was too big & heavy. The 50w was heavy at first but I have gotten used to it quickly, & it is lighter & smaller than the 100w.

USB charging is nice as I didn't want to get a charger and deal with swapping batts. I do fidget with the door but not much & I think it will hold up well, I hope anyway. It seems to get a touch warm sometimes but I keep in pocketed next to my phone & vape frequently. The battery will last me a whole day, just barely without recharging at any point, vaping 9w with a tiny dripper & about 20w with the Lemo (black), switching between them a few times daily. I'm using the Samsung 25R battery.

I love the look, feel & vape, it's comfortable in my hand. I like that it's authentic with a good chip. I'm sure there's a better device for the $ at this point, but this fits my needs & I've had no problems, the ohm issue has been corrected in this version. Buttons are clicky enough & won't chip but super tiny pin point chips have started to show up, just 2, shiny underneath & only noticeable to me because I've been making sweet sweet love to this thing. I can't find the silicone case available yet, save for pink. I think this is a must buy but I'm picky.

My con's:
-USB socket is very slightly off center, still works with no hangups but may be a future problem if it loosens any
-Attys go on smooth but start to lean to one side until it is tightened down completely, then it sits flush, this may cause scratches, none yet, but it will be hidden anyway
-Battery door is held tight but still easy to open and play with unnecessarily
-Battery readout does not show percentage, which I would like

If you vape harder than I do you'll want two batteries, or just charge it at your desk or where ever throughout the day. I've probably gone through 4 ml of juice today & at 9pm I'm showing half battery.

Lemo is great on this rig. I don't think it can be easily vaped over 30 watts, starts to get dry on the second hit at 25 watts for me & my wicking, requiring priming pulls to perform (80% VG). I need a real dripper to find out what 50 watts is really like.

Ok love-fest over. Let us know what you decide to get.

Hey I REALLY want to say thank you! I didn't know this was the first thread about this mod :)... I appreciate your experienced response to this. I'm not sure what I'll vape at but anything beats those 2 for 30 bucks pens you see in gas stations lol. I've recently found out about the smaug 150w that has a USB port and two batts. I'm thinking this might be the way to go. I'm still doing research on it, but it looks very promising. oh and thanks for the heads up on the lemo...

Sent from the dust in front of you!

Pros- everything.

Cons- none.

Best device I've owned in five years.

Honestly I have nothing bad to say about the Sigelei 50. Some people suggest "just get the 100!"
That's great if you need that many watts. I don't Vape above 23 watts so the I've got way more wattage then I will ever use. I love the looks (especially with my black Lemo sitting on top) and the feel, and functionality are second to none.

Just got mine today. I'm gonna miss how small the Cloupor Mini is but I think the extra 20 watts and floating 510 will be worth it.

I absolutely love mine. It is small enough I can put it in my pocket and holding plus and minus will lock the screen. The edges are beveled so it feels better than square edges, but wish they were rounded. I go through about 15ml in my nautilus at 4.1v a day and usually a half of my Atlantis tank one I get home at 25w with the 0.5ohm coil. I usually need the battery in it plus an extra on a typical day for both of those, but I take the first out when I get home and have a fresh battery for my Atlantis. I use Samsung 25r batteries. I love the size and haven't had any issues at all. My only complaint would be out doesn't give a numerical percent for battery life like the 100w, 150, or 100+ have, just a symbol.

Mine is an absolute beast with a Lemo sitting on top!

I was struggling to decide between this or the istick 50 but I got the istick instead. I got sig150 n sig 100+ already n I know sigelei products are solid! but the 50 VR2 is not much smaller than the other two and it only uses one battery so that's the deal breaker for me. But I am sure the 50 VR2 will perform well too. Happy vaping with it guys. :) I am gonna wait until they have the TC version come out later, pretty sure they will do that soon.
