...which would it be? Mod + Atty combo recommendations welcome.

I'm in the market for another mod and I feel like this may be my last mod purchase for a while due to some impending financial strains.

Thanks in advance all.

I once asked this when I was researching when I was still new. I had a very small amount of gear trying land on what to try out ....
its a difficult one for sure at least was the feedback I got back ...its like asking if you were to only eat the same food for the rest of you're life what would it be ... My favourites change all the time depending on what mood I'm in I have a top list for sure but even that changes over time

At the moment I've been enjoying my YiHi mini Q mini that's my favourite mod as of now build quality is exceptional as is the functionality

Atty wise that's so hard to answer I swap about loads it's the one area I invest the most to try out new products and some of those don't suit the mini

Take the Hadaly RDA it rules above all else for flavour for me ...I love it but I don't run it on the mini I use it squonking only so I'll rule that one out based on my mod choice

Ijoy Exo is my favourite RTA at the moment

Vaptio Turbo-L is my favourite RDTA at the moment for flavour and the types of builds I can get in there anyway

Sub Hohm pre made coils hmmm probably the Uwell Crown V1

RDA probably the skill RDA on the mini

I can't really pick a winner they are all great bit I'd probably discount the RDA for practical reasons it's great for home use not out and about dripping

Sub ohms are great if you don't care for building your own coils

The top two I equally like probably lean towards the Exo it just has a lot more versatility

Well there you go I sort of picked it through elimination lol

Sadly it'd have to be one of my mech mods, with a TYPhon RDA. I say sadly because mech mods are a fucking slap across the face of basic electrical safety. But... they're so simple they're the only mods I'd trust to last any relevant length of time.

Sorry, I didn't see it was in the "regulated" section. Then I'd choose the VT Inbox - just like SteelDriver.

1 device and tank, for me it would be the SXMini G Class with the Aromamizer Plus.

Would be really tough for me not to have a Hohm Wrecker G2 though. hmmmm on second thought if it is for the rest of my life the G2 would probably last that long with it's CNC aluminum enclosure.

I have no reason to believe the G Class wouldn't last but the G2 seems tougher.

If I only could have one vaping combo, it would probably be a squonker. I'd go with my VT Inbox and Hadaly RDA. Large capacity with the bottle, but still have the flexibility to drip.

Was going to say the exact same thing....hard to kill a PWM mod. If you did, they're simple to repair. I bought a NIpwn from 5150mods (ebay).

Most likely this setup, or the same rta but with my efusion duo because then i could run dual 18650 instead of the lipo if i wanted. Upgraded to a dna250...

The mod is easy. Hexohm v3 all day every day, no contest. Honorable mention to the new Squid Industries Double Barrel v2.1.

Atty is a tougher choice. Probably a Kennedy 24mm, bulletproof.

Hopefully I'll not have to limit myself to one mod only...ever, but if I did it would have to be my Hohmwrecker G2. Given my experience and what I know at this time, my choice of atty would be the authentic Reload rta.

I don't have a big stable of mods or atomizers so that's why I would choose this particular combo. Later on, those choices could change.

I've been on a printed squonk bender lately, but I think I'd go +1 on the SX Mini G kevlar / Aromamizer Plus topper, although it would be reeeaaally difficult not to have the Sherman instead of the Plus.

Another +1 for the G Class. It's obsoleted everything else. Runs TC with the reliability of power mode and another SXMini precision workhorse. As for topper, choices mentioned all excellent. I'd roll my Modfather likely but even the OBS Engine is tempting- give a little flavor for such ease and leak-proof-ness. Glad I can still have them all.

Mine would be what I've been running the last 6 months +, my blue Hohm Wrecker G2 and black Boreas combo. There might well be a better RTA out there, but the Boreas has caused be to stop looking. I think I would be happy with this combo for the rest of my life.

I hear ya on the Sherman and I like it even more with the Ohmega BFT plus bubble tank on it, holds like 10ml and no more wicking problems.

Just got a couple more pros with the AP but would be happy with the Sherman.

Although I love my Cartel Revenant 160, if I had to only have one mod it would definitely have an Evolv DNA chip. I have had several of them and traded or sold most of them when I was moving. I am loving my little HCigar VT Inbox and it has definitely reminded me of why I love my DNA's. Very reliable chip that does TC very well if you are in to that and the ability to tweak your vape with the Escribe software is a real plus for me. I will be buying a new mod every month to build my mod inventory back up. As of right now, I plan to buy only mods with DNA chips. I think that it is nearly impossible to tell someone else which mod will work best for them but my opinion is based purely on personal preference. There are a lot of good products out there and everyone is different.

Currently I'm loving my T-Priv with the Sense Herakles on top. As for favorite ever? I will have to think about that one.

Love all the feedback I got guys. I did a bit of research, and realized I wanted a DNA250, big battery life with the 3x18650, not pocket breaking, and the ability to go flush 30mm if I want to down the line.

Winner was a VapeDroid C3D1. Now just waiting on the boat from SlowTech to get here.

can't go wrong with a DNA mod. That is why I chose the DNA75 DIY box mod. I know if it breaks the board is only $35 and I know how it works since I put it together. now just have to buy one. lol

My tastes and preferences are constantly evolving but if I had to answer the question right now, today, it'd be my Lost Vape Drone topped with the Dead Rabbit RDA. Best vape experience I've had to date. Prob will change tomorrow lol. We shall see.

As someone who misses dripping (Had to go to RDTAs due to an increase in traveling) I would have loved to grab a squonker. Hopefully there will be some more more dual 18650 or Lipo DNA options down the line.

ditto for me, vaping a silver boreas on an orange g2 right now. I have 3 g2's in rotation: 2 topped with a boreas and the other topped with a billow v3+.

How long you had your Coppervape? Any issues with the threads on the battery cap? I'm looking at this one awfully hard.

Been using one daily since last November. I have 2 of the Alum silver looking ones so no paint scratching/chipping. Still looks great. A gravel dimple on one bottom edge...
Multiple drops as it is my out and about doing yardwork, tree cutting, mechanic work, etc mod.
Battery threads still fine. They should hold up well since they are not super fine threads.
510 still fine in spite of all the drops.
I have another one in the wings if needed.

That is the one I like. I watched The Vaping Postman's review of it a while back and he commented the threads on the battery cap were shit. I wanted to verify with another owner before I did anything. Appreciate the reply.

Probably would be my HCigar VTinbox since it has an Evov DNA75 chip and is a squonker. Can't beat it for flavor but would have to have a good stock of 18650's since it is a single battery mod. It is also easy to carry around and I love the interchangeable panels.

ahh yes the coarse threads can be a bit harder to start than finer threads.
After a week with it I was doing it like an old habit.
And it was my first mod with screw in battery cover.

Starting out you might want to back up a part of a turn till you feel the first thread drop in.

I almost went this route with a Pulse 22, but after several months with my Serpent RDTA, I can safely say that I'm not a single coil guy. I like my chunky duals and 70+ wattage. Unfortunately a single 18650 device isn't going to help me much with that.

Now if someone would put out an iteration with a 75C and 26650. Oh baby.

For the first 3/4's of the day I couldn't make up my mind, Boxer 2x700 with pulse 22 or TLF with Wasp Nano. Then I got home and started drinking and it was back to the ol' Lost Vape Drone with the Dead Rabbit lol.

Why must we choose? The only thing I'm "stuck" with for the rest of my life is my wife. I chose wisely in the first place and I'll stick by my decision 'til the end of days. Otherwise, variety is the spice of life.
