So I have as many mech mods as I need for now and am looking at VV/VW mods. I have the MVP but want something.... Plainly put, with more power. I am considering the provari, i've looked at the vamo, ect... What are some good options for an upgrade. :D


Sent from my iPhone because I'm awesome like that.

Well, if you're looking for more power in a regulated mod, the choice is pretty clear:

MVP: 11 watts
Provari: 15 watts
dna-30: 30 watts

Plus DNA mods come in lots of different form factors. Do you want a tube, a box, or something in between? My favorite is the Protovapor XPV. Unfortunately, DNA mods are hard to come by; none seem to be "off the shelf" items that ship immediately.

The more I look at this thing the more I am digging it. I love all the options it gives you when you buy it. What's the wait time on something like this?

Probably 7-8 weeks now. It was under a week when I got my DNA-20 XPV back in January, but they've gotten popular. Here's a picture of it next to an MVP for size comparison:

Another thing to consider is the amp limits of different devices. And the type of power delivery, Pulse Width Modulation vs flat DC output. DC signals are considered better because of the consistent power delivery. PWM quickly pulses power from 0 to 6+ volts and averages the length of the pulse to equal the setting.

If I remember correctly, here is a little list of popular devices and their stats
MVP2 = 5v or 11w, 3a, DC
Provari = 5.5v, 4a, DC
Vamo, SiD, Maxes = 6v or 15w, 5a, PWM
Kick 2 = 15w, 6a, DC
DNA30s (and likely the clones) = 30w, 10a, DC
