What do you think about Sigelei 213? Should I get a new one?

Well, Djlsb Vapes - the most technologically qualified reviewer - tested the 213 very thoroughly and it failed in most regards. The way sigelei treated Daniel after that is more than enough for me to boycott the company. In my opinion we in the vaping community have a responsibility to call out companies when they behave like sigelei has. We certainly shouldn't reward them for lying to their customers. Sure, you might only use power mode, but are you really ok with Sigelei scamming others?

Sorry, I just haven't the same problem in my Sigelei 213. And I surely notice some wrong test operations in his video. Review is just for reference and it can't be always right, isn't it? However, threatening is definitely not OK.

Djlsb does technical reviews. The facts don't lie.

Have 2 Fuchai 213s that have been in use for about a year. Experiencing my first trouble with one. I use nothing but LG flat top 3000mAh 18650 batteries. On the troublesome 213, the batteries lose contact during use. I hit the trigger button and nothing happens. The unit lost battery power. Battery connection is intermittent. I wonder if a button top design would provide tighter seating for the batteries? BTW, love my Smok Alien.

Just my two cents, read a lot about this mod as I liked it's look and was considering it, but the more I read, the more I saw people having issues with it, the fact that it's power reporting is faulty and such made me forget about getting one.

So it seems that they've had lots of lemons, but if you get a good one, it should be fine.

I think the Wismec RX series are the only other similar mods that I've seen that have been uber popular but plagued with lemons.

For me, a huge factor is in my Facebook groups, I'll notice the mods that are complained about the most, asked about issues and solutions, traded the most, people tired of them and want something different or better, and the 213 and the RX are always the ones that show up the most.

I've got the Smok G-Priv it's a touch screen and is pretty good. About the battery problem mentioned above I just did a check on a Vaperesso dual coil tank because at times the vaporizer would produce no vapor but the screen lit.
One of the coil wires broke causing the problem. I've also heard of the spring loaded tab having problems.
Anyways the Smok is a pretty good, larger and heavier than the other units I have, provides good vapor and flavor,
I'm using it just about always in the temp mode, I have a RBA deck with Clapton dual coils that I'm using now. In temp mode I have to use a preheat, not sure how that works.
