Another Reuleaux configuration eh? Cool.
What chip family drives modern Sigs?

Besides the several prior DNA triples, there's the two Wismecs, another maker's (?) upcoming Reuleaux design DNA (with real leather trim, oooh), an existing YiHi powered one from Kangside, and the upcoming non-Reuleaux style i200 from Eleaf.

That's eight or nine at least, five of them Reuleaux shape enclosures.

Ughh, no way. That cheese grater one is terrible looking. The Spartan looks kinda cool.

You're saying holy crap like it's the first 3X18650 mod out there.
I would say holy crap if it was a 3X26650 mod ;)

For that amount of power I would want a LiPO pack. Even with 30 amp cells, 300 watts is pushing the envelope of battery safety, It depends on how many amps the mod can/will supply.

300 watts ... hell, that's 10x what I'm usually set at ... LOL

The problem is that manufacturers while competing with each other, produce devices with higher and higher values (because big numbers sell) throwing safety out the window.
Seriously, nobody is going to need 300W atm, almost no one needs 200W atm either.

I can't say what people need but I do know that the RTA's coming out from Smok can take 200 watts with no problem. Not for me, don't see the point but people do vape that way. But I totally agree about your point regarding safety.

What new RTA? The SMOK TF-RDTA?
If it's anything like what it was copied from (Aromamizer), then no I wouldn't use it at 200W.

I never vape at wattage that high, but like the battery life that come with using a 3 batt unit.
My need is for super fast ramp up! I've heard that there is a chip out there that puts out 200watts
for just a split second when you hit the button, then drops back to whatever you've set it at.
Anybody know which chip does this??? What mods use it??

Why? current 26650 battery tech is crap, when compared to 18650. I'm referring to amp/current rating.

Last I saw Mooch's reviews, NO 30 amp 26650, perhaps 1 he rated at 25 amp, all the rest 20 amp or lower, with lots at 10 amp!!!! translation.... 25650's in general handle less amps than most 18650s!

Oh the Tornado.
Seen it but didn't really dive down.
Seems over the top to me, but yes i do see why you would need a lot power to get so many big coils started.

Besides that, just because something can reach a top value, doesn't mean that you should use it at it's top value, just like you wouldn't drive your car at it's top speed.

I would say holy crap just because of the ridiculous form factor.

Won't stop manufactures from churning out gigantic, inefficient, 3 battery monstrosities and sell them on inflated specs.

I wish that Hohm Tech would make a Hohm Wrecker with Quad cells or a High Discharge Lipo....All these triple cell regulated devices only seem be be good for capacity and thats about it...I would rather use my Tres Equis for size reasons and comfort.

Good point, but bad analogy ... I would ... and have ... driven both my car and my motorcycle at their top speeds ... :D

Well actually I've driven my car at it's top speed once to prove that it can be done, but not all the time since I would like to keep my license for a bit longer :)

LOL! I did leave out a small bit of info ... I lived in Germany for a long time, had plenty of opportunity to drive at top speed.

He might be out of biz. I checked the site, no products, everything seems shutdown.
His liquid line is still active as he has a separate fb page and website for the liquid. I also just noticed he added another flavor to the line. Not sure when as I just saw it when checking to see if he was operating.

I guess the profit margins made more sense for a liquid line since the mod market moves so fast and he came on the scene as the trend for smaller was developing and mod prices are more competitive than liquid prices are so far. Of course the liquid market is saturated too but one has more time to get noticed with liquid than the fast paced mod market.

The RGX is a nice in the hand feel SX350J dual batt and that is what I was hoping a dramatically scaled down MHM v2 would of became but alas it is what it is.
