thinking about getting my first box mod and need some advice.

Hi All,
Saw a Hana clone at a new local B&M that just opened up. I had never used one so he let me check it out. I am thinking about getting one now. I like that I can combine everything i love about my vamo with the mech mods I use with my drippers. Was looking for some advice on what to get. I don't drop my ohms too low, usually around .5-.7 What matters most I guess would be battery life and the ability to run those mods without it overheating. Price is also an issue. I looked at fasttech to get some ideas of what is out there, because they have a huge selection, but i am a bit weary of ordering from there as I have had some great hits and some terrible misses from them. Can't drop a fortune though, which is why i want a clone. Also the ability to run on 18650 is a huge plus. Any advice is greatly appreciated and welcomed.

I have an IPV mini and like it a lot. 30 watts on a 18650. Handles down to .5 Ohm. usb charging, spring loaded 510. It can be found online for under $70.

How is the battery life on it?

I actually just found the clouper t5. I read some reviews. I know its not as good as some of the others, but like the round design better than the box and found it for $58. seems to do everything I want it to. Just know not to update it

I had an ipv2 which goes to 50 watts. Box mods are awesome because you can build at a higher ohm like 1 ohm and adjust your watts. When looking for one, make sure it has a spring loaded 510 pin. sometimes the ones that u need to screw gets funky or the screw strips

Thanks for the advice with the pin. Yeah the one I'm getting I think I can go down to .2 with it which is lower than I build. The only knock I've seen is the battery life. Well that and they did a software update that fried most of the mods.... The update is even available anymore though and for the price figured it was a good deal. But it does everything the box mods do but still in a cylinder shape. Figured I would try it. If I like it, I will probably update down the line. Dnra4 looked really good but expensive. The sigelie also looked good and a bit more reasonable. I'll see
