What do you prefer? Regulated or unregulated devices?

I'm going to have to go with regulated. Recently gotten into mech mods, so I currently carry around a multimeter to make sure the voltage doesn't get to low. It's probably not necessary but I care way to much about my face and fingers 
Same here, there is something nice about just pushing a button and vaping off the battery idk I just like it. I do oh so love my sigelei 20watt for dripping though and the fact I can get a days worth of vape off of my purple efests.
I prefer modularity.
I'd like to be able to unscrew off the control head of my regulated mod, and screw on the topper in hybrid mech mode.
I'd buy a cheap regulated mod.
I'd buy a cheap mech for backup.
But I'd pay top dollar for a modular setup that allows to rearrange things and add or subtract options.
It's just like the vv vw thing;
I'd buy a cheap vv
I'd buy a cheap vw
But I ain't paying a high price for a 134 because its VW-only; same for a provari because its VV-only
Right now with mechs, you can add a kick; some come with a kick tube; soon, there'll be kick tubes coming with the kick with a screen included; then you will be able to buy a mech, and a kick and be able to optionally use regulated or unregulated whenever you wanted.

I actually like both. I use unregulated mech mods for dripping only. But.... I use my Provari with my Russian primarily.
I like them both. Regulated provari with kayfun for out and about, and mech mod with dripper for around the house.
I'm strongly in the unregulated camp. I like the responsiveness and with good batteries little to no watt limitations. I pull my SVD off the shelf occasionally slap on a 2 ohm build and remember why I like unregulated mods
But, too each their own. There are some nice regulated mods out now, but I'm too cheap for a $300 60-100 watt mod.
@edyle I completely agree on the Provari. It is a very well built mod, but very behind the times in functionality. The lack of vw doesn't bother me as much as the 2.5 amp/~12 watt limit! That is below many cheap vv/vw devices!
@Double Helix, You will know when your battery is running low...shouldn't need the meter Your battery will not explode from low voltage. The concern is drawing more amps than your battery can handle, which is less likely to happen as your voltage drops. Low ohms on the other hand is an issue, but they shouldn't drop between builds unless you are suddenly shorting for some reason.
Good luck and happy vapes

I currently only use regulated but I definitely like unregulated more. So many more things you can do with them.
Regulated. I've currently got a Hana Mini V3, an eVic, and an iTaste VV sitting on the coffee table in front of me, all loaded up with some of my favorite juices in AMP Tanks and Kayfuns. Yummy...
I grab my Reo and I'm set for the day. Unregulated for me. I honestly sold my Provari for my Reo. It's dripping without dripping, indestructible, and powerful. Especially paired with a modified bottom fed Trident V2!
I got in on the DNA-30 co-op, and ordered 3 boards. One of them is going to be used in a DNA-30 powered wood-cased bottom-feeder I'm working on. It's gonna be a big mod--it HAS to be because I plan to cram dual parallel 18650s, a DNA board, and a squonking bottle all in there.
But it's going to be a "state-of-the-art" bottom feeder, that's for sure... ;-)
