What am I missing?

[MCCOY300]

i got my sigelei 150w in, and let me say I feel like a flunky... I don't like it. I caped it a few times, played with the buttons and just prefer my mechanical mods to it. Am I alone in this or is there something I'm missing?

Give it a few days the one thing about regulated is the ability to fine tune the wattage to you're liking by taste. As we all know not all juice vapes the same so having that ability is a plus.

I don't think your missing a thing. I had several VV mods, after I bought my first mech that was it for me. I don't pay any attention to what's new and out next. But that's me. Everyone's different. Just stick with whatever you like. Plenty out there to keep us all happy!

I'm considering buying a high wattage regulated mod, so I'm curious about why you're not pleased with yours. I assume that you got such a high wattage mod for cloud chasing. If so, it should be superior to mech mods. Advantages that come to mind:

• Consistent voltage output vs voltage drop in mech mods
• Versus a single cell mech mod, doubling the resistance using higher wire gauge results in more surface area, double the wattage (max 150w ofc), yet the same amperage.
  
• Safety features like reverse polarity protection, short protection, low battery voltage protection, etc.

Disadvantages that come to mind include having to marry two batteries and balance their voltages since they are in series. Not sure if this is a problem since the mod has low battery voltage protection. Also, the fact that box mods are more hefty than mech mods in size and weight. I suppose the circuitry means that it's more prone to malfunctioning, whereas mech mods are almost always reliable unless user error is involved. Anyway, the advantages seem to outweigh the disadvantages in my mind.
