Hello hello, Some of you might remember me.
Highly doubt it, buts its been a long while.
I used to Vape, Full time, only. I was vaping to quit smoking.
and I failed! I went strong for 6 months, some life crap happened, and I ended up smoking again!

But, Im back for this second try! And a lot of things have changed!
I used to have a Sig 150w TC, and I used to build my own coils.

Im ready to hop back in, but I dont know WHAT TO START WITH!
I want something easy and simple, Like my Sig 150w was.
I want a good tank to go with it, something easy to fill, with easy replacement coils (Dont feel like building)

So, Suggestions?
I have been looking into SMOK T Priv 220W Kit (W Big Baby Beast TFV8 Tank)
Is this any good?

Its decent but feels big and boxy in the hand. I suppose your sig felt the same. But there are mods that feel better gripping it. The Alien feels much better in my hand than the tpriv.
Also the up down buttons on the tpriv are easily bumped.

Its this one-
https://eciggity.com/smok-alien-220w-full-kit/
It was VERY popular a while back. Smoks new stuff is just more flashy.

Oh, That is actually pretty nice!
So is the back part where the buttons are?

This kit has treated me well and the coils it uses (EUC) are very economical. The tank that comes with it is a Veco tank and they have a good air flow system.

The Veco One Plus tank with bigger capacity (4ml) is a nice addition.

Does this tank have any issues with leakage?

Any Leakage problems with tank
If you get the Alien kit it comes with a Baby Best tank. The t-priv comes with a Big Baby Beast tank. I have several of both. They are not prone to leaking. They both use the same coils and theres a wide variety of them.

The Big Baby Beast is wider, holds more juice, and has a bigger air-flow slot. The baby beast gives slightly better flavor IMO.

There is TONS of new stuff being put out all the time. I get new mods/tanks occasionally but my Alien kit is still gets heavy usage. Mines been very reliable for a year. Like I said, it feels good in my hand as well.

You might want to check out the Smok MAG kit. It comes with a newer tank and looks really cool. I've read good things about the tfv12 tank.-

If you want a mod that lasts longer than 3 month, and a tank you don't have to babysit or exchange coils every 2 days, then stay away from smok. Any mod would be fine except smok.

If you used a SIG 150 tc prior why want a new one?

As others have mentioned take a look at the vaporesso's, voopoo, DNA, Tesla's hell anything that ain't smok, we can't stress that enough, otherwise you going to join us here on a daily basis trying to troubleshoot garbage lol

Thank you! Finally someone in this thread who agrees. The Tesla nano steampunk is like half the price of any smok stuff and the build quality is amazing for the price.
I get mine from vape shop with friend discount but smok kits were like £80.00 and the tesla £50.00. With discount it was £30.00 and it has lasted me.
Fires my RTA'S instantly and hits freaking hard. 80 watts is like 120 on another mod.
But I do agree with vaporesso, voopoo and DNA definitely. I wish I'd got a lost vape therion. Wasn't even much more than my minikin V2 and my minikin v2 batteries won't stay in the mod!
Voopoo drag, Smoant or Tesla for mid priced mods. YiHi for high end. I have an SX mini g class on the way. It looks amazing. Can't wait to hook it up to my laptop :)

Good choice going with the "G" i've had my kevlar one for about 3 months and it gets used every night when i get home from then" salt mines" ( work :devil: ).
Download the SXi app to your phone ( free) and you can mess with your mod while out and about cos the "G" is Bluetooth-ed .
Awesome beast it is.

Totally forgot it had bluetooth! It won't leave the house much though as it's too expensive. Be gutted if I dropped it!

Still fun to muck around with the B tooth app, i uploaded a custom wallpaper first cos of the 30 or so that are pre-loaded only a couple are any good in my half arsed opinion...
