I have recently purchased the Mini volt as a out and about mod, and honestly I'm really enjoying it, but now my main mod is failing (evic vt original). It's been 7 months and I'm happy that it's lasted this long, but sadly now I need something else. Everyone I know says sigelei has had amazing mods that can withstand drops (I wouldn't say I'm nice to mods by any means) but now I have no idea where to start. I've never owned a sigelei mod, and it seems everyone likes a different model the best. I noticed the new 26650 is out, but know nothing about it, and I've had the 150 and 200 recommended. What's your experience with sigelei? I need something that I can be rough with, will work for quite a while (minimum 4 months), and as long as it's over 60 watts I could care less about power or firmware updates (just want something to work and work well). What would you recommend? Price is fine as long as it will be reliable for a long time!
Your favorite/the best Sigelei mod?

I recently picked up the Sigelei Mini 40 Watt, Temp Control. I sure like it for an out and about Mod. And for the Price of less than $40. Yep, Yep
Has now taken the place of my iStick 20. And last longer and just as small. Slap a Kayfun Mini 2.1 or a Kabuki on and gone

I thought of that one also after watching a review on it, but my Local Vape shop had the Sigelei, sitting there, and home it came. I only Vape around 10 - 13 Watts and Temp Control I have a Russian 91% v2 with a Nickel Coil in it, but that is it.
I've had the 150 watt Sigelei and loved it for durability, but now I am enjoying the Sigelei 75 watt with TC. It's a single battery (18650) mod.
Id also suggest looking at the Wismec Reuleaux rx 200 mods (3 18650's).

I am loving it. For the price it's a great mod, upgradable firmware, and very ergonomic.
My coffee maker looks like it will break if I drop it, I get around that minor defect by not dropping it
It' an observation.

I have the 90W 26650 Sigelei. I haven't dropped it yet, but it looks like it would be easy to break the case where it overhangs the battery. I am hard on all my gear. This would not be my first pick for hard use.
I have an Old Skool 150 I like a lot. Which on you want depends on the power you want. The Mini, 75TC, 150TC and 200watt machine are all well thought of.
As long as it can withstand a beating, be reliable for quite a long time, and be ergonomic, 75w is more than enough for me, I rarely go above 50 anyway, and that's only on my melo 2 at .3. I just want the most reliable/durable one
I think you'll get along with the 75TC then. If you intend to vape it over 60ish watts all the time-- you say you don't, of course-- I'd put Sony VTC4s in it. Otherwise, any 20A battery will do.
I have some Vtc 4s from a year back when I was into rebuilding and rocking the svd lol. Do have to say I love how far vaping has come!
I own 75W and 150W Sigelei box mods. They have never failed me, but I'm looking for more from Sigelei.
I just took out my 75W Sigelei to take a look at it, and I would have liked it to have the 26650 battery and TC. Would I buy a single battery device right now? I don't think so. Swapping batteries and charging them is a small hassle I'd like to avoid. I have to remember to put batteries on the charger when I first wake up and not let them sit in the charger overnight. I also do not use built in chargers b/c I've heard bad things about the possibility of a fire, so that feature is lost on me.
Sigelei has fallen behind the technology curve for TC. In order to get TC for SS, NiCr and TCR you have to look elsewhere, and I am if they do not move soon to fill the gap.
- Kangertech Kbox 150 is upgradable to 200W: Ni, Ti SS, NiCr. NO TCR. (upgradable)
- Sigeli Fuchai 200: Ni, Ti. NO TCR. (NOT upgradable)
- Joytech Cuboid 150: Ni, Ti, SS, Custom TCR. (upgradable)
- Reuleaux RX200: Ni, Ti, SS, Custom TCR. (upgradable)
I emailed Sigelei about a week ago and asked them to make a dual 26650 that could do at least 200W, and TC for Ni, Ti SS, NiCr, and TCR. If they do that they can really fill a gap btw 2 battery 18650s and 3 battery 18650s. I don't go over 90W that often today but I can see me doing so very soon as I start to build more coils for RDA/RTA. I'll buy at least two and maybe more of the mods if they build them.
I would never use Ni, but I would make use of Ti, SS, NiCr and TCR, but that makes buying the Fuchai unlikely given it's coverage of TC. Really hoping they take my email seriously.

I vape Stainless Steel and Kanthal 90% of the time so TL isn't all that important to me. Do get me wrong I use it and it's a great vape and I only use TI wire.
I have two of the Sigelei 100+ and they are tanks. Bought them when they first came out and they are still going strong. I true box mod though and a bit large.
I also have the Fuchai 200W which has TL and a real nice coating and smooth lines
The 75W plus (really 90W after the upgrade) with TC
And two of the 50W single cell that are stored away until spring when I start fishing again. Those are considered to be expendable.
The Fuchai and the 100W+ and by far the most durable but they have all been reliable.
