Yeah, my daily drivers are all boxes. 2 Picos and 3 KSD Mini 25 watt. Can't be beat for shirt pocket carry for sure. But all are topped with eGo ONE Mega tanks built to 1.5ohm. I just like keeping my "Vape Range" to where I can grab anything outta the cabinet and vape it if I want. Just yesterday took the Cool Fire 2 for spin.
@BackDoc your right on with Lemo. Have 2 V1s that were my daily drivers for quite awhile. Retired them when I found my Megas but I'll never part with 'em.
Well, I just had my first ever runaway with a regulated mod, the Z-Max V-5. Wanted to post while still fresh in memory so it went kinda like this... Pulled Sig out of my shirt pocket to take a vape as I had been using it for 30 min or so. Took hit and went to put it back when I heard it still sizzling. Fingers were off button and it was in released position. Clicked it a few times with no effect, screen was lit with 'Low Load' warning. Quickly started unscrewing tank (EVOD Glass) but after couple revolutions and still firing, just gave base quarter turn and it was off/silent/dark. I use the 18500 battery with no spring so is quick to loose contact if base not snug to body. Gave it a short (30 sec) rest to cool then re-snugged base and atomizer. After usual 5 click boot is working fine again. Still set at 7.5W pushing 1.9 ohm coil. Whole episode prolly only amounted to a 10-15 second firing and battery meter did drop to about 2/3 full from a higher level but still well into usable range. Still vaping from it with no repeat so assuming it was just a fluke. Does get your attention though, especially when battery has essentially nowhere to vent in my collapsed setup. Just curious if anyone else has had similar experience with regulated mod (mechs another story...)
Fortunately I've never experienced anything like that. Well there were the auto firing Vision Spinner IIs but they always stopped after a couple seconds and were quickly retired!
I've never thought about running it without a spring. Why?
I was looking at the EHPro 101 today and thinking if Sig made a V6 that it might be very similar.

Sorry haven't checked ecf for a bit alkanae. No spring allows v5 to use 18500 battery in it's shortest configuration. Attached a pic with fire buttons aligned. Makes for a light, compact, semi-stealthy mod.
Yea that was my opinion too. I might have to get one ^ I think I'd be sorry if I didn't.

Followed Doc's link to Efun.top. Wanted to add I ordered from them early last year during their Chinese new year sale. After holidays ended, the items were promptly shipped and arrived about two weeks later. One item was on backorder for a couple weeks before manufacturer cancelled production and they sent email offering refund or site credit. I chose refund and it was handled without delay. Have not ordered from them since but was satisfied with their service.
Regarding the Ehpro 101 vs Zmax two things caught my attention. First, no cone threading on 101. Second 'Battery: 18350/18650'. The 18500 used in my Zmax pic is not recommended though likely doable. 18350's are in the 700-800 mAh range which is lowish even for a tootle-puffer. For folks wanting TC and more power though, neither of those issues probably apply.

I thought I saw a review on the ehpro 101 showing 2 tube extensions = middle for 18500? I might be wrong. I don't have the time to hunt now. I know the orig has a 18500 variation.
TC's not interesting to me anyway.
Youre right. No 18500.

waffle cone, sugar cone, and regular cone
Cone threaded atomizers seem to be going out of style but IMO the EVODs deliver a very accurate flavor. Anyway, the pic shows cone threading better than I could explain. None of my box mods come with it. Make it a waffle, Doc... Butterpecan.
