Hello,
What VW mod should i get out of these and from where/best deal? I have a Protank2
Also what battery & charger should i get with it?


SMOKTech SID
VAMO 5
SMOKTech ZMAX Mini
Sigelei ZMAX V3

Thank you for all the help! Vape on:vapor:

These are all close enough in function and form that it's really a personal choice for you - they all get good reviews, and many people love them. I have a SID, and like it a lot.

Do you have a brick and mortar shop you can visit to play with all of them, and see how they feel in the hand, how the menus work, etc?
 
whats the diffrene between these battries 18350, 18500, 18650 batteries? sorry on the newer side of vapin
Also whats so good about the SVD? Not really looking to spend $100 almost for it...

For one, obviously size is different. The life of the battery is going to be longer with the 650 than the 500 or 350.

I say the SVD because of what I mentioned above (Easy Function, telescoping). It does not have all the menu options that, say, the SID has. Makes it much easier to learn. It has a general battery indicator (Traffic light button) and a specific indicator when you hold one of the buttons. It feels very well made (I think the SID feels fragile, personally). The telescoping feature is great when you want something a little more concealable. For instance, I keep mine in my breast pocket at work, and at the 350 length, it is perfect to avoid getting in my way, but still easily accessible.

What would be the point of getting a 18350 over a 18650 if a 18650 last longer?

yeah there is a reason i did not like the SID, it only has one button, and you have to wait so many seconds to toggle thru the screen, heck even the vendor i bought it from didnt like it as much as the other ones.

the lavatube isnt on your list, its light, tough and durable, it has a battery indicator on it, cant find that on my Vamo, the lavatube is tough to clean tho, the Vamo easier

Like I said, I like the 350 for the size. The SVD (and pretty much anything using a 650) are too long for my taste. I keep them in my polo shirt pocket, so a 350 allows me to keep it smaller. I use a 650 if I am in a location where I am leaving it on a table (like at home), but if I am out and about, or at work, I prefer the smaller form factor the 350 provides.
 
From other forums i read not to many people have preferred the SMOKTech SID... is there a reason behind this? also whats difference between SIGELEI ZMAX V5 TARNISH and the SIGELEI ZMAX V5? Cant seem to find a difference other then name...


One has a tarnished outer finish and one is shiny. The difference is purely about how they look. They are a decent VV/VW mod. I use one.
