Hi guys and girls! I'd want to buy my first high wattage mod, and I couldn't choose from two, the Eleaf Ikonn 220 (Fasttech, PreOrder, $34.30) and the Joyetech Evic Primo 2.0 (AliExpress, In Stock, $33.99 with coupon, $34.99 without). Which one should I choose? And if you have any other suggestions, please let me know.

Check out my thread.. you'll get good video reviews as well to help you make your decision! http://vapingunderground.com/threads/need-mod-recommendation-please.334764/
The problem is that I have just $36 for the mod, and the cheapest price that I can find for the Voopoo Drag is $38.06...
I checked it, still couldn't find any other (and I still can't decide XD), but I'll keep following your thread
I own the Primo 2.0 since a few months, it's a good mod for the price.
Do not expect to actually reach 220+ W with it though, nor with any other VW/TC dual 18650 mod, there's not enough power in there...
On a side note the mod requires 2 (good) 18650 batteries, always to be used/charged together, and possibly an external charger to - doh - charge them.
All of the above will raise significantly the price point, unless you already own that stuff
PS if you buy the primo buy also a silicone cover for it, 1$ or thereabouts, for its finish is really smooth - and slippery.

I already own an external charger, and I already ordered the batteries (Samsung 25r, green), that's why I'm looking for double battery mods. And I've learned a lot about battery safety, and I know that they wont go up to 200+ watts with two battery...
Well I also happen to own a predator, whose 510 is supposed to break if you just look wrong at it, but so far so good.
I take care not to mechanically stress too much these mods, they're not expensive so bottom line the materials are what they are

Joyetech owns eleaf. So probably the same quality. How about a smoant Battlestar? Been around for probably 6 months with good reviews and user feedback. Saw it on elego mall for 31usd. Supposedly the predator 510 is now fixed. They changed it a bottom press fit versus the original top press fit.
In your price range, there's always going to be a few downside and maybe a gamble on quality. I respect your budget so only made suggestions taking that into account.

You can get the Smoant Battlestar at efun.top for 34 bucks and it is a great well made mod.

SirRichardRear did a breakdown and output test on it here:

The only reason I don't have one right now is because I just bought a Hohmwrecker G2 and I'm limited in cash as well. You van bet your ass it's on my short list of gear to get, though.

I would save $100 and get a Pwm......

Hey guys! What do you think about the Movkin Disguiser 150? There's a massive clearance sale for it on efun.top, and I wondered if it's any good (I saw videos about it, but i saw some issues with low voltage of the battery and the buttons) So, what are your thoughts about it?
X1000 on Smoant Battlestar.
Best affordable mod on the block.
I was doing dishes one day, my mod was on the counter and I accidentally knocked it into the sink. Into a bowl of water (!) Battery door opened, batteries flew out.
I was sure it was a gonner, I yanked it out as fast as I could and let it sit overnight in a bowl of rice.
Next day powered up no problem.
That was about 3 months ago, still works like a champ.
It's small, it's durable it's super cheap.
Win Win Win.

no, I already bought two batteries, I just need the mod for the $36 (preferably vw)
Lol so what is wrong with the ikonn 220 it has great reviews ??
Smoant Battlestar is a beast!! Also, the Hohmwrecker G2. I wouldn't take 3 times my money back for my G2. There are still a few of them available but they're harder to find then a couple of months ago.
The Battlestar is my next mod to buy, and the Smoant Charon is next after that. I'd also like to own an iJoy Zenith, but it's a 3 battery mod.

@MWorthington OP has a $ constraint otherwise there are a lot more I would recommend.

Yep. My bad. I forgot about the $36 ceiling. In my opinion, the Battlestar is without a doubt the best bang for the buck out there at the moment for a regulated mod in the price range.
