T-Rex kit ... Should I?

[Baycitypuff]

Been looking to get my first mod. This one? Does anyone have any experience with one of these? http://www.vaporbeast.com/Sigelei-T-Rex-p/36-0210-000.htm?Click=178

It's a bit pricey to me,but not to bad .
Why do you think this will be the best mod for you ?

In my experience with the T-max I got varying results. I bought two of them, one worked great, the other not so much. The one that I had problems with would hit weak, like the carto/atty wasn't making full contact with the firing contact. The thing is sometimes using the same carto would deliver different results. Sometimes it would hit great, other times it would hit weak. I would pull the pin on the carto, and it would work fine for a while, then back to hitting weak. Way too much fiddling for what I wanted then. The one that worked great still works like a top.

Another thing is that the T-Max is HEAVY! With an 18650 battery it weighs in at over a pound.

Just my

I don't think $49.99 is that pricey. And I want something that's variable with the batteries and the charger all in one pack. I'm using evod/1100 batteries right now.

I figure by the time I buy a mod case, battery and charger from someplace I'll be past $50 anyway.

I love my iTaste MVP 2.0. Love not having to use a separate charger. That being said, the higher amp limit of the Zmax circuit is nice. I've got a Zmax v3 that uses the same electronics as the TRex and it kicks some serious .....

If you vape LR stuff then the MVP will be great for you. What attys/cartos do you tend to use?

 

[Baycitypuff]

I go between the kanger mt3s and generic DCTs. So maybe the zmax instead of the trex eh?

LR means ?

The MVP would be my recommendation as well, if you looking for a box type mod. If you want a tube mod, the Vamo would be the way to go, and you can find a kit for right around your $50 max. I would spring for the stainless steel Vamo though, if that's the way you go.

Fastech has a vamo kit for under $50 right now. I just found it for a friend that wants to get into vaping. For the price, a vamo is hard to beat, it's what I started with. That being said, I've had my eyr on an MVP for a long time, I just can't hang with the size and weight of it. I want big power in a small mod.
If you have the bucks, a segeli zmax v3 is a nice mod. it's my current "at home" mod, but it also travels well in 18350 mode.
Good luck deciding, I know it's hard with all the devices out there, but You'll never regret getting the better one!

 

[Baycitypuff]

This one ? But it's $88 http://www.vaporbeast.com/Sigelei-zMax-V3-Variable-Voltage-Wattage-APV-Kit-p/36-0097-005.htm

Wish I could find one for $50ish in the us.

Links appreciated.

This is now on sale for $39.99.. Apparently Sigelei decided they did not want to miss out on the MVP 2.0's wild success at the $40.00 price point.

Though it doesn't have an OHM reader which is one of the big reasons why I got the MVP 2.0

 

[Mark Anthony]

I think a better value would be the MVP 2 from 101vapes..... just my humble opinion though.

 

[Barbara21]

I have to say that I like the idea of a back-up battery right in the mod. But it does add to the weight.

in my experience, i have had better luck with sigelei products than innokin products- you should look at the sigelei zmax v5 at vaportek for $60.99. it is the newest version of the zmaz with the removeable top cap and new display/menu system. i have had the v3 for a year and it hasn't missed a beat. i have had the v5 for two months and it is even more impressive. in a pinch, the v5 can charge your cell phone but i wouldn't get it just for that- i'd get it because you can use any battery (18350,18500, or 18650-button top or flat top) without having to switch tubes- just unscrew or screw out to whatever length you need. in the 18350 configuration it is very pocket or purse friendly. it is solid, easy to maintain, and you can add any device on top without an adapter. take a look..... it may be a little more than the others but you get what you pay for.....
