The reasonable side of me says "You never go above 50 watts, why on earth would you want that?" The same part of my brain that really wants a new Harley says "Man, that thing goes up to 260 watts! Get that!"

I haven't used one and I've only seen a few first impressions videos so I'm going to hold off for a while on it. I like to make sure that nothing weird is going on with new devices. That being said, if I hadn't just bought a Segelei 100w plus and an ipv V3 in the same month, I would probably pick one of those up. I might have a problem.

With the proper coil set-up you could pan fry an egg...lol
Well, driving that much you could build any coil set-up you like and get a descent vape out of it. I'm not saying try it but in theory you could build a 1.1 ohm kayfun and have it vape like a .5 ohm RDA if you crank it up to max. The range is broad, the chipset looks to be able to handle it with ease and overall I like the styling of the box. I see nothing negative about that mod yet (I just lack the funds to pick one up).

I'd say give it a go, just ensure safety first which is buy the highest amp batteries you can source out for it that way you don't have to worry about drawing too much from it, beyond that I'd say give it a go. Its a pretty mod to say the least design anyways.

My biggest issue is, frak, takes 3 batts to run this, means need a total of 6 batts to vape it effectively, two married sets of 3, and even with my 100-150 watt box mods, generally keep them dialed in at 50-70 watts, and rarely kick it up to 150. Gets way to intense in the triple digits for me.:D


Vape long and Prosper.!!!

Did you ever see the video of someone making a grilled cheese sandwich on a mechanical - I've looked all over for it and can't find it. Anyway, yeah 260 watts... I wonder where it will stop.

Not saying it's a bad thing, less than a year ago I though 15 watts was crazy power and now most of the regulated device I own will do more than that.

And everyone needs a way to make grilled cheese if the power goes off.

Picked one up yesterday to add to my Sigelei 100W and IPV3. No I don't need 260 watts or even 60 but I didn't have it, wanted it so the wife bought it for me along with a Kanger Sub Tank.

Fit and finish is average, I own worse and I own better.

Not impressed with it auto locking nor the fit/feel of the switches but all in all, decent mod.
