Sigelei 75w

[Rymesis]

Hey, at my local vape shop they have a brand new sigelei 75w that came in with the button sideways and I'm getting a bit knocked off the price since the button is not correct but it still clicks fine.

If I pop in a battery and the button functions fine, would you say it's not a bad deal?
(Currently no regulated mod anymore)
My primary concern is the button going up/sticking on, though my in-use mods are near me virtually all the time and turned off at night when they are not in use.

Though I've also thought about getting it and swapping out the button with another button, electronics and disassembly is sort of my forte.

Thoughts?

I love my Sig,s and own just about every one they've made , that being said I wouldn't use any mod with a defect such as you describe.... Especially the 75w tc

What does "with the button sideways" mean? Is it tilted?

Ecigavenue.com has em for 55 plus 5 bucks for 2 day shipping. Got mine from there.

Yes it is tilted to the side slightly, and I'm not sure that I''d get one but I'd be getting it for about how much they are online.


I was thinking about attempting disassembly to fix the switch which just may be jammed or not installed correctly

If it's gonna be the same price as an online shop, why not just get it online and save yourself the trouble?

Plus once you open it up you void the warranty I would just order one online

Well, they either decided it was a bad idea to sell a mod with a button like that, or they sold it before I got in there today, so I ordered one off of eBay since every place I found was $69.99-$89.99 plus shipping. I got one for $63.99 free shipping and it's only a state away so it should be 2-3 day shipping at most.

Hope you like it Rymesis

i wouldnt mess with it because thats all you see on the outside and who knows whats damaged on the inside..i think the few dollars more is worth the peace of mind knowing you have a fully functioning piece thats perfectly find inside and out.

I'm getting a Nitecore UM20 charger along with some LG HE4's and a RTA section for my Triton.
Seems like it'll be here by the 12th or so, seems! Can't wait to be back on a regulated device.
I'm not a fan of the dual 18650 mods, though I have been curious about Sigelei's and haven't had the opportunity to try one out before, so I figured it's as good of a time as any!
Either way, I think it'll be a lot better than the Ego One battery I'm using now =P

The ego one is a solid device for what it is, I'm actually thinking about getting one for portability.

If you need portable, an istick 40 watt TC is the answer. Just got one and it's fantastic. The same size as the 30 watt but with TC and a 2600 mah battery. Great feel and function. I haven't used the TC option yet as I have an IPV4. The 75 watt Segelei is next on the shopping list. I tried one last week and loved everything about it. It costs twice as much as the istick but I feel it's totally worth it. I don't know about a sideways button but Tony had a valid point of it being the first indicator that more may be damaged.

Well, the online supplier ran out of stock, supposedly....how nice of them to over-list on ebay then wait a week to tell me.
Anyhow, I ended up actually getting a Snow wolf 200w. Seems pretty nice on the battery life, and I got in 2 sets of batteries(LE HE4's) that are marked for their marriage and in-service date.
Before anyone jumps in, I rarely go over 50W, even now in TC I'm sitting at 520F at 50W, just so it'll not take forever to ramp up.

Curious things though, I'm using the Ego One Mega tank, which I do slightly regret because apparently Joyetech decided to bugger up the chimney so you either must use 50/50 or thinner juice, or
suffer endless dry hits at the hands of the CLR coil head; However I had a nickel .2ohm coil pre-made coil floating about for it so that's what I'm running in it now.
Not a bad little setup, I would prefer to have a bit more airflow so it didn't make the annoying dog whistle sound, but I can't keep feeding the Triton juice, it eats too much! XD

Ebayers often do that - over list or sell stock they don't actually currently own as per Ebay policy they have 30days to ship. (I no longer shop there)

I've heard good things about the Snow wolf 200W so you should be happy with your purchase. There is a dedicated thread for them in the TC section of this site.

Subohm tanks with large airflow can go through the juice much quicker than +1.0 ohm tanks with more restrictive air flow that is unless you turn DOWN the power/temperature and turn the air flow down.
