Built-in batteries is gonna be a deal breaker for many I'm sure

I agree with Garemlin about the batteries. After my experience with the xpro50 from smok...never again will I buy one of their mods. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure they have much better. Personally I just give companies one shot, and one shot only.

True, but if you have any ability to solder it won't present any issues. I'd love to see pics of the innards on that thing to get a sense of how they wired the cells.

Probably end up being some sort of proprietary cells. But I am sure someone will find a way. Can't see it being a popular modification as this one won't really be a hot seller.

Tap'd from my LG G3

I considered this device untill I read about the lipo batteries I mean, lipo's would be ok until they need to be replaced at the end of their life....

LiPo replacement isn't that hard provided you can obtain the appropriate cell.

I would think it would depend on how easily the batteries can be accessed for removal. i'm sure the appropriate cells can be found.

What's bad about the batteries, and any other things i should be aware of?

I really like the look of it, and the large battery capacity.

LiPo batteries should last 2 to 2.5 years. With new toys coming out everyday, it will probably end up somewhere in your closet long before the batteries are dead. For $60 with TP I think it's a steal. Even if you vape 24x7, I don't think it takes a rocket scientist to replace/resolder the dead batteries.

I didnt see anything about it on the site, but do we know if this is temp control like the dna40 where you need specific wire or are they doing this with kanthal?

Seems like everyone in Shenzhen has their own clone of the Evolv nickel implementation now. So yeah, you'd need nickel or titanium wire.

At the price I don't think built in batteries is that bad. Probably end up around 50$. They should last long enough to get your monies worth

The istick 50W has built in batteries too and people seem to think it's gonna be a huge seller. This looks equal to, or better (on paper), but about the same price.

Nothing. Those batteries should last for at least 2, probably closer to 3 years. If it works as advertised it's a steal.

Cool. I prefer the built ins, like to keep it simple and as hassle free as i can. I guess it takes a couple of weeks to get the first reviews on this thing, if there's no major issues i'll get one for sure.

This looks very well thought out and not just slapped together like a few box mods I've encountered. For the price I think it's worth the try. I believe I will get this and perhaps the istick 50w with the tax return. B let you know which one seems like the better deal. I love the current istick 20w.

 

[dykealiscious]

Yeah I wanted their Bluetooth model but non removable batteries is not a good idea I think.

Sent from a cool but overpriced phone on TapaCrack at yo mama's house.

I know everyone above me has mentioned the lifespan being great. I just have to ask, do you own a cell phone? A lithium ion phone is going to retain 80% capacity after 500 cycles, so even with your cell phones your looking at needing to replace every 2 or 3 years anyways yet your still likely to spend $600+ on a cell phone.
