Just wanna hear what you guys got and love, and especially those of you who collect mods and stuff. Which one just never sits out of your rotations.

Recently I picked up an ipv2 and can't put it down. I know it's old but it's an amazing device. I absolutely love the touch firing capabilities

i haven't even hit one of those before or any of the TC units. I will probably try to find someone who is trying to get rid of theirs.

THIS - v v v - can you tell I love it? LOL!! Just recently started using the temp control and the difference in flavor is amazing! One of the best I've tried, battery life is second to none.

I have been parting with the ones I don't use to people who will give them good homes and need them, along the way:) These are some of my keepers.

I dont know why it did that. anyway it hits like a beast, and i haven't tried any TC yet, but I know i will when they come down in price and maybe stop coming out with better chips every few months. I think my next will be a tube mod by tugboat or SMPL. The SMPL one is just that super simple and it connects the atty direct to the battery and boy does that make a difference.

My very best purchase was my second one - a little ego/ce6 combo. It got me off cigarettes. (My first purchase was a crappy cigalike - complete junk.)

My 'best' (i.e. favorite?) - the little 20watt egrip by Joyetech. I have several bigger/more powerful systems but I use the egrips mainly. I have four of them. :D

OK, I always find this hard :) I LOVE my eGrips. I have 4 and they are my all day, carry around vapes! For such a small, self contained little device they are just pleasant to vape. I got a Sigelei 150 and 150TC from @wake and vape and LOVE them both!!!! Like @Whiskey I'm beginning to find good homes for some of my other devices that I just don't use anymore.

I have to give the Isticks 20's and 30's an honorable mention as those too, are outstanding mods for both entry level and advanced, I have a 50 and that lasts almost 2 days for me on a charge, and here they are now coming out with the 100w. :)

My absolute best purchase was my 11w Mvp and plume veil.
The reason behind this is because after spending a mint on various cigalikes and pen styles,it opened up a world that I didn't know existed.
The mvp blew the cigalikes and pens outa the water and the plume veil basically forced me to learn how to build for optimal low power results.
Long story short. I bought both from the same b&m on the same day and the gal behind the counter told me flat out that the plume wouldn't work with the 11w mvp.
I took that as a challenge.
I bought some 30 and 32g kanthal,learned the ins and outs of how the plume worked and pranced my happy ass right back into that b&m and literally blew rings around her and her lil ego setup.

I realize that the prices for 'entry level' TC devices have dropped alot since I last looked around. My bday is next month and I plan on asking the wife to get me vape gear. What are some reasonable TC devices that RDAs are ok for. until recently I thought all TC mods needed tanks.

Aside from my first REAL vaping experience (ARO Winder), my subtank mini, and my iStick 50 watt, I'd say my most useful purchase is my Halcyon coil building kit.

Well I didn't purchase the mod, but the battery and tank I did. Didn't know if I'd like subohm at first but now I love it and my old stuff will soon be going to a good home. Only mod I own that I purchased myself is a vamo clone lol. I've been very blessed to say the least. Waiting on my ijust 2 kit to get here, really looking forward to trying the tank out probably more than the battery.

Guess its hard to see in the pic in my dark room lol, night shift gotta keep it dark in here. It's an isub tank, for $13 and being plastic cuz I'm clumsy and have dropped it just filling the sucker its done very well. Definitely wanna see how it compares to the ijust2 tank, when Mr shenzen gets the boat over here I'll give u my thoughts.

Id say my best buys were things I have to replace from time to time.
What are they? MY DIY MIXING SUPPLIES!!

If your talking devices, I made a trade for an ipv mini2 thats my take everywhere adv. If your talking about atties, its my poopy $10 helios clone. That crappy littly rda has been a cornerstone for my entire collection and still is frequently used for testing all my new recipes. When I buy new rda's, if it doesnt stack up to the helios, its traded off.

A long time ago bought an Evic , ok insert joke here . It got some bad press . I saw the screen ,, I thought that is the future of vaping . So I bought another . Then I got a Provari .
Don't use them that much now , but they still work great . That to me is the test , if they work years later .

Best purchase I made.... Mutation X V4 because it showed me that rda's were my key to quitting smoking once and for all! I had tried tank after tank after tank and just could not get one to make me quit. The RDA however really showed me what I was missing!

2nd & 3rd best purchases: IPV4S which I've had for 2 weeks now, and the Wotofo Atty3 (Mutation started to get a little messy...).

But its really tough to come here and look at all the shiny new gear coming out.

Something that isn't talked about a lot. However,my best and favorite buy the Castor (26650) RDA by Fog Monsterz. Excellent flavor and cloud production combined.

Yeah I'm fairly new to RDA's so the Atty3 is all I know from that line lol. I'd love to own an authentic Velocity RDA but ... It was unavailable last time I checked.

I have many mods. From the original Provari to custom made wooden bottom feeder box mods. But the Sigelei 100 plus has been getting used non stop since I bought it months ago. Works flawlessly and I top it with a Kanger mini sub tank version 2. I'm very pleased with this set up.

Had someone tell me to go with a subox kit for my first vw device. Would those of you who have prior experience with those agree, or is there something alot better out there for a little more that would be so much better
