Your preference: Large or Small Mod... Heavy or Light Mod ?

Among my many APV's, I find I prefer my Semovar over my slightly shorter ProVari becaus its a bit lighter. I didn't care for box mods Ive owned (whatever floats your boat) but recently tried then bought A Vapor Shark DNA30 due to its incredibly small size.....and am really liking it simply due to the small size and the lighter weight.

If there was a really well built and versatile Ego stick battery, I would probably use it..... (and a Kayfun mini?)........ but there's not and I dont...


What are your preferences and why............ Just curious.

Love love love my 14500 mods, they are so elegant and sophisticated looking IMO, great for a night out, etc!

That said, they can't pump out the wattage like my larger mods, nor do they have the tank capacity or battery life.

I wanted to add I'm not a big fan of boxmods either, but the gizmo has caught my eye as a nice pocketable setup. Similar to the microstick in configuration, but has the ability to accept up to 23mm atomizers.

That's pretty cool... That's a mighty big hand holding that gizmo. :)

Preference has been for MVP and A6 Mini RDA. Just received Hana Modz and Magna clones. Happy with MVP but wanted replaceable batteries and a larger RDA. Excellent so far -- think I did well.

For me the bigger and heavier the better…

Right now I have a Maraxus with a Kayfun. I'd like bigger and heavier than that in the future.

Bottom line… If it can't double as a club I am really not interested.

Don't like the wood ones. They look pretty but not my thing.
other than that all I really care about is functionality. I have a k100 a colonial and a DNA30 clone. 97% of the time the k100 is being tightly gripped in my grubby hand:).

I enjoy my big box for home use because I can set it down without knocking it over. Use a tube mostly. Have a wooden "tubish" box I made that I like, but is too lightweight IMO because an rba makes it top heavy.

my rigs run as light as a Aerotank Mini on a Spinner V2, to as heavy as a Russian 3.1 on a Cartel clone

Love modboxes most as there's so many varieties now but still love and mostly use my Seven 22. I just think it's the best mod I've ever bought. Bought two actually. Spare one.

I know you'll see the reviewers on their Facebook's and instagrams showing off their rows of amazing and unique boxes and mods that are all better than the Seven 22 I'm sure.

But I'm not a reviewer. Don't have any modder offering me their latest version of this or that. I'm just an ordinary vaper. And I think if you like big mods that last a day or two sub ohming on a single battery then the Seven does it nicely.

Yeah, I have a problem..shinyitis.

I mostly use 18650 mods and an ipv2, since I'm mostly subohm dripping these days. I have a couple Russians and kayfuns that I can use 18350 mode on. Usually if I'm going somewhere and I know that I have to be all super stealthy about my vaping, I'll use my ss 4nine in 18350. Otherwise I'm dripping.

I still can't get past the size of the 26650s. I mean it's great if you need to use it as a pdw.. otherwise they just look obnoxious.

Size: Large-Small, no XL.. I may get one just for shit's and giggles though.

Weight: Doesn't matter to me.

Where can I find this gizmo? Looks ace!


I myself prefer 18350/490 mods. And the 490 mods I'm super selective on. But my favorite mod as of yet is the fortune in 350.

Great aren't they. My 22 sometimes vapes at 23, 24, 25... could just be a screen error. I don't know.

I'll look forward to that. I knew straight away I'd like it. I don't have any issue with the tilt to change settings. Just do it with some style ;)

I agree completely, however just because you have the horsepower, does not mean you must use it all. I love my tubular mechs, but nothing packs that wee extra OOMPH quite like a DNA 20 or 30...or the "other one"....IPV2

My 26650 kayfun leaks no matter what. I don't care. Please, nobody start giving me tips on how to fix it lol

I have some really decent 5100mah batteries for my 22 by Keeppower. I've run some tests on them and they came out slightly higher. Very good batteries. I didn't see the point in buying the sonys. What were they .. something like 3000mah? It defeats the purpose.

Various things can cause leaks. For example, if you keep your house cool in the summer (my roommate keeps the temp at 19c (67f for you colonists) and take your *fun outside into a very hot and humid climate...it will tend to weep a wee bit. It's a simple matter of barometric pressure.

So what is the problem? He said that he didn't want tips, but I would like to know what the problem with his device is... I think if it were flooded Hobby kid would know how to handle it. This isn't his first rodeo.

it's just a first gen' 26650 kayfun. badly made clone where they got the drilling sizes wrong. anything is solvable with some savvy and time. I don't have the time :)

I only use 18650 mechanicals. I just can't tolerate the short battery life of the '350 or even '500 mods. My personal favorite happens to be a 23mm mod, the Paps X.

Vamo in 18350 mode or mvp2. It has to fit in my purse and not weigh as much as a ton of bricks.

Dual-coil 5 ml rebuildable tank side-by-side gripper style with a 2600+ mah top firing vw mod fitting entirely in the palm of my hand and weighing no more that 4 ounces.

Is that too much to ask? :rolleyes:
