OP probably thinks anything over the 3 figure mark is too expensive.What is "nothing too expensive"?
You may want to read the news on the manufacturers site. I wouldn't try temprature control mode until you update the device! Personally I'm seriously considering getting one in a couple of months.I've had my SMOK XPRO M80 for a few days and it hasn't blown up so I take that as a positive sign. It has dual 18650s installed, so no need to buy batteries. And it has temp control, which you might never use--but just in case you do, you already have it. Price plus shipping will be about $60 (MVS sold out fast but good deals are still to be had). For the $60 price range, if you want temp control (a good idea even if you don't use it) there are a few choices, and more choices around the corner. At present there are clones of the Vapor Flask and Hana Modz, and there is the XPro. There's also a clone of the Vapor Shark, but it costs closer to $70...
TRUTH!Sigelei 100 or 150 watt.
With the Istick and similare mods where you can't swap out or change the battery when it dies, IMHO you are not purchasing the device. You are renting it and the rental agreement expires when the battery does since at that point you are left with a paperweight.
watts like horse power, condoms and guns.Not trying to hijack the thread... But... Could someone please tell me why I would ever need more than 100 watts?

Better to have and not need than need and not have.
Sigelei 150W. I have had mine for about 2 weeks now and I absolutely love it. It's clean, looks good, pretty good size, and is consistent. I am glad I went with Sigelei.
With that being said, and I don't want to hijack this thread but looks like a good place to ask, but since buying my Sigelei 150 I have been in the market for a smaller, on the go mod, preferably at least 50W, 18650 changeable battery. The Sig 150 is great for at home, but I want something smaller for when I'm out. Does anyone have any suggestions other than the iStick 50W? Seems like the market is flooded with devices right now and I have no idea what to get. Had my eye on the Sigelei 50W, IPV mini, Smok m50, etc.
I've got a Smok XPRO BT50 that I love! I have kind of a hard time recommending Smok box mods though, their record is pretty spotty. Mine is great but they've discontinued it. Can't give any personal experience with it but I've been eyeballing the updated Sig 50W - spring loaded 510 and magnetic battery door for the win.
Yea I've heard about Smok and it is kind of concerning. I think their new mods looks nice. The only thing I don't like about the Sigelei 50 is the price and the battery door. It's $90 bucks, only 10 or 20 dollars cheaper than the 100 and 150!? That seems a little off. And the battery door is magnetic, but one end is held down by a screw and you slide it out to the side and put your battery in. Or at least this is what I have seen from pictures.
I really don't know what to get, the iStick 50 is not out of the picture, but I like the idea of changing my 18650 batteries on my own, because i have a bunch of unmarried bats lying around now.
what about a mech mod?
you can get them cheap and since they are unregulated you have not wattage limit other than how low you can safely build on the batteries you useYa know I've always thought about getting a mech because i love the look of them and the form factor, but I just can't justify it with all of the other regulated devices that are out right now. I like being protected lol. I think I will add one to my arsenal eventually. But seriously, not trying to stir the pot, what are the actual advantages of a mech?
Dunno quirks are one thing....Just shoddy self nuking shorting mods are another.most people would argue that the simplicity and lack of electronics to fail are the best reason to get a mech, and how reliable they can be.
but i find that all my mechs have a little minor quirks* that make them less than perfect (not big deals most of the time)
i love using my mech mods, but all my sig 150 is far easier to use
*the quirks may be due to the fact that most my mech mods are chinese clones and not high dollar authentics
I've decided and pulled the trigger... iPV4 for me $63 on a group buy through Smog Distribution.
