Which one should i keep? Need advice!!!

[dee_the_narcotic]

hey guys, this is my first post here so hello!

i need some advice from you on something. first off i love your reviews and they are the most well written an most helpful on youtube. i have an itaste svd that i recently bought from a friend but i need a battery for it. ive watched your review on it. another friend of mine is trying to convince me to trade him my svd for his itaste mvp 2.0 which i also watched your review on. should i make the trade for mvp 2.0 or should i keep the svd and get a battery? your recommendation will make my decision. my friend wants me to trade it to him because he has a lot of batteries to use with it. should i trade it or keep it?

any replies will be highly appreciated and thanks in advance!

Well if you keep the SVD, you'd need at least 2 batteries and a charger.
IMO I'd say trade it for the mvp, its a great device with many positive attributes. Unless you like tube mods better, then keep the SVD

Take the MVP.

I'd go for the MVP 2 if it were me.

How old is the mvp and how much use has it had? The SVD will allow you to change the batteries, the mvp wont (at least not very easily). I have an mvp and I love it...but make sure the mvp works battery wise. It would be a bummer if you traded for it and a month later it craps out on you. Keep in mind the mvp is a disposable device. It costs about 60 bucks and will probably last about a year with hard use. Just something to consider.

SVD can use (1)18350 or (2)18350 stacked or (1)18500 or (1)18650. It has many different configurations. If you like a tube mod, keep it. That being said, I would feel good trading one for an MVP if that is more your style. The MVP is certainly easier to use.

I would normally say the SVD because it adjusts 1V higher than the MVP. I like using a lot of power personally, however the additional functionalities built into the MVP plus the 2600mAh battery will last days. MVP comes out on top IMHO.

1. Put the MVP 2.0 flat (charger, standing up)..does it wobble (older version), Innokin fixed it around Oct/Nov 2013
2. Press the fire button, is it hard as hell..older version,
3. Make sure it charges to 4.2 volts

If you use VW, do you even go past 11 watts?...MVP 2.0 has 11 watt limit. I like my MVP 2.0 and most of the people on the forum love it too...

Non-e-cig question...are you guys cool, most of time..I give my left e-juice, batteries, mods etc to my co-workers to help them quit cigs..I tell if they don't like it, or they break it..Tough Poo...so if something goes wrong..are both of you guys going get .... hurt etc...cause some "friends", I don't do business with ...just keeps things simple and easy for me

I had an MVP and liked it just fine. There is nothing wrong with it but myself I like to take a hit longer than 10 seconds and have long since moved on. But the MVP is a real good little device.

Even just two quality 18650 batteries: sony VTC5 and a quality charger will cost you more than a new MVP 2 - purchased mine for $42.50 delivered to my door and $46 for the SVD - so about the same value.

I would trade for MVP 2. IMHO: Built like a tank - reliable - 2600mah built in battery.

I think of an MVP 2 like an iPhone - when the battery dies - buy a new one - probably get two years of life - hard to predict.

Switches/electronics/connector might or might not last two years on the SVD.

If you read the SVD thread, you'll see that SVDs have more button problems than you can shake a stick at. But most folks seem to loooooooooove their MVPs. I think the MVP is a better quality device.

my svd does have a button problem... sometimes you need to hit the "+" button really hard. sometimes it turns itself off for no reason... it has some issues just from use. the mvp 2.0 is in great condition, i was there when he bought it. were vaping buddies i guess. lol hes only had it for a few months but always loved my svd. he calls it the "robo ecig of death im must have" lol. i think im gonna trade it then though if everyone recommends getting the mvp 2.0. can not using a smart charger ruin a 18650 battery?

 

[DeepSix]

Nice...my suggestion, GO THERE NOW AND MAKE THE TRADE, before your buddy changes his mind!

Sounds like it will be a good deal. You wont be let down with the mvp. The other bonus, when the battery wont hold a charge for long, you can still use it in pass-through mode and use it as an ohm checker when your building coils.

Good luck!

 

[Rat2chat2]

I all depends on what your preference is. Box mod or tube style. Both a great mods but I use my mvp2 all the time and have been quite happy. Good luck to you. Either way you go.........there will be something else you want next week. heehee

 

[dee_the_narcotic]

so i take it i should get the mvp 2.0 then? i didnt know it was that much better. i had the mvp v1 and it was fantastic but i love the variable wattage so i wanted to get a svd which i sold the mvp v1 to get. its too late for the trade sadly but i would probably get a mvp 2.0 instead of spending the same amount of money for batteries and a good charger for my svd. im using a ego style crap off-brand battery with a evod right now. (not saying the evod is bad, i love that little thing) thanks guys, any more opinions though?
