Stainless Devices?

[gtianz]

I haven’t been by these parts for quite some time. I know that much has changed.

I can’t even remember the name of my first regulated tube mods. But, I had quite a few Provaris’. Still have a titanium one.

To get to the point. I’ve been using an Aspire NX75 stainless steel single 18650 for a few years. Anywhere that I could buy another? They have been very reliable.

Are there any extremely durable mods like this still being made (that aren’t exorbitantly expensive)? Aluminum is too soft and I don’t like plastic.

I tried the search feature here. I’m open to suggestions. Please and thank you!

edit: I forgot to mention single 18650.

Anyone have experience with: lost vape GRUS 100w box mods?

 

[gtianz]

I’m very spontaneous and irresponsible. I bought that ‘lost vapes Grus’ mod. Looks pretty big for a single battery device.

Hope it fits comfortably in my pocket without making me look like I have a chubby all the time. Grabbed another Aspire tank to match it too since I have a bunch of Nautilus atomizers.

I’ll give an update and probably post a few pictures once I get it.

Welcome back, gtianz. Take a look thru FastTech. It's like a chinese Wal-Mart. There might be something there that'll catch your eye and fulfill your needs.

I too am into durable mods hence me getting the Vandy Vape Jackaroo

Pretty happy with this mod,max wattage is 100w and it can use 18650 or 21700 batteries.
As far as durable this is as durable as it gets,you can drop it and get it wet and it will still go on working like a champ.

Vaporesso has also come out with the FORZ-TX80 which is also very durable:

Even the sub ohm tank it comes with has a outer layer to protect it in case it falls down,Jai Haze the reviewer gave it quite a beating and that sucker was still working.

In the Stainless steel department i haven't had much experience but i do own a couple of Asmodus Colossall (think they are made of Stainless steel) and they do feel rugged,strong and well made.

Yeah yeah i know,it's pink with a rainbow tank and a weird drip tip...don't judge me,i was going thru a ''phase'' hehe

Hope it fits comfortably in my pocket without making me look like I have a chubby all the time.

I'll stick with my brass DNA 200.
No real history with SS mods, just SS tanks.

I've got the Grus, and it's a fantastic 21700 mod. But it is heavy

The Eleaf pico 75w is an option, if you use attys 23mm and below. Or the Pico 21700 for 25mm and below attys

Thank you all for your replies. If I had some semblance of patience I may have chosen something you all recommended. That Chinese sight would have saved me $20.

That Chinese sight would have saved me $20.

But would have taken years off your life through the anguish in waiting

If you do buy from Fasttech, pay the few dollars for the USPS Expedited shipping over the epacket. Epacket can take forever these days.

Besides, Fasttech isn't cheap like they used to be. They are however the biggest and best vape parts store on the planet.

@gtianz, the SXmini SL Class heavily uses Stainless Steel and they're being sold off cheaper at the moment.

The only thing is that they're a single 21700 mod.

 

[CaveFurby]

Hope you do find another NX75, I sure like mine. I picked one up close to a year ago (sold out at that site now unfortunately). Maybe keep trying with searches on different search engines, might still be one out there at a smaller site, who knows.

@gtianz I did a quick search and found this

Aspire NX75 Box Mod - CNC Edition (NX75-S & NX75-A)

 

[gtianz]

Thank you @Pigs. I found that one too. Almost 100% positive that it is the aluminum version. I think the stainless ones were a very limited run. I’m going to try to fix the one that I managed to break.

The Grus has already shipped! I’m excited. Big thumbs up to emeraldvape.

@AngeNZ and everyone. Do you think running a 21700 device with the supplied adapter and 18650 batteries will be good? A nuisance? Just lower run times I’d imagine. Or should I look to order a couple new batteries? (I had just ordered 4 x 18650s’ because mine were getting old )

@Cloud-FF7 Your reply was great. The Asmodus Colossal was almost exactly what I was looking for and I might get one.

Good to hear buddy.

I don't know if I'm stepping over the line but i could swear by looking at your avatar that you're Jerry Seinfeld,or at least you look like him

The Asmodus Colossal is a fantastic choice!!
I have two of them. Very comfortable to hold, a great chip and very user friendly

I run a 20700 squonk mod with 18650s. No problems at all.

Another one to look at since you are already an Aspire fan is the Aspire Mixx 60w. It's a side by side that takes atomisers 24.5mm and below. I love mine so much I now have 4 of them.

I love the form-factor of my Colossals, (size, shape, function) but the touch screen is a pita on both of mine! Luck of the draw maybe, but something to consider.

not at all! That is funny. I actually look a lot like 2 “people”.
1. Woody from the toy story (which is cute and fun!)
2. Jared Fogle - the Subway guy (not funny and kinda sucks!)
I should update that photo.... divorced.

Pretty darn expensive, but by far the best mods I own. Slick af, solid, simple, well made, and the best chip in the industry! (you get what you pay for sometimes)

edit: the Dani 21700 is even better! (battery life, screen size, and only slightly larger than the Mini)
