It would be very interesting to see a Reincarnation of the ZMax.....a mix of the old and the new , maybe a single 18650 box in stainless steel, or a tube type with some upgrades and new lines keeping with the classic look of the Z...as much as We would salivate over a Z2 Max etc, we are a small niche in a market driven by those much different than us , at least here in the USA
Hello JeremyR!
So it appears we need to be blaming you for starting our "Spire fantasies" then, eh?
VapieDan will be happy to hear he's off the hook!
Doh. We missed the obvious, "telescoping".
It's still a great looking kit at a good price. I'm amazed the atty matches.

It is now 40% off at $60 from the original price of $100. Obviously it will perform no better or worse than the V3/V5. It is all about the custom designed body. A lot to pay for style.
All things old are new again. In the vaping industry at warp speed. I am seeing more and more tubes around. They shall return!
Original Heatvape Power Tube TC Temperature Control Box Mod
Now that there is I what I call tasteless styling. It look like something HR Giger could have designed on a bad day. I'd rather have a Bobo than that.
Very interesting, I like the black and red one as well as the SS, nice wooden box too.......not sure if id pay $60 ( interesting how they call it a Box Mod)
Holy smokes! That styling is definitely original. Yzer's "HR Giger" description seems to fit well. Yeah, I don't know why they'd call it a box mod, that's weird. However, I'm at about 8 watts and that monster only goes down to 10 watts. That's too much money for something that won't even get me down to where I'm happy. Thanks for posting the link though VapieDan. I got to see something new today.
I agree. I really hate the industrial tron apocolytic death star stuff and anything "mega". When is that going out of style?
Reality is I spend more on tips, wraps and charms than I do on mods and atty's so there's some gender bias on my part.
Ha! I haven't been out to the mailbox today. I'll take a look.
It's here. Unboxing snapshots to follow in several minutes.
The Sigelei ZMAX V5 arrived today a day early, as expected. I was busy putting up the Christmas tree with the wife and forgot to check the mailbox until aikane1 reminded me.
Nice factory box, shrink wrapped.
Sigelei laser etched logo. 10mm battery cap only.
Slotted top cap!
I set the defaults the way I want and fired it up. Works absolutely fine. Straight OLED screen! It is a V5.

Glad to hear everything was as expected! Mine won't be here for probably another 2 days...
Looks like a pretty good deal from Vapor Room 909. I added a photo of the screen.
Thx! I think I'm headed that way. I don't have a V5 yet. I couldn't tell, was that a ss button too?
No, just the standard chrome plated plastic button w/power symbol. The screen looks normal. My cell phone camera does funny things under fluorescent light, like making the OLED characters look blue. It's actually white with black background.
Regarding the stainless steel buttons on Sigelei branded ZMAX units... it's about 18 months too late to find these, unless some very rare NOS show up somewhere.

Thanks for posting those pics Yzer. That slotted top cap looks pretty beefy.
The fact that it only comes with the 10mm cap isn't an issue for me since I only use 18650 batteries. Even so, I have a few extra smaller caps from previous orders if necessary. I'm hoping the lack of a smaller cap won't be an issue for anyone else on the forum that recently ordered one from Vapor Room 909. Chances are that everyone has at least 1 spare small cap by this point.
