I'd take a look at the Wismec RX200..
Has Temp mode for all the wires with 200w available.. I just saw VapeNW has them for $39.95...I own two and they are great...

The TFV4 is 24 mm and sits on top of that cup, but it makes a good connection. I'm using one now on my RX200 and it's awesome!

You want best? It's a DNA 200 with a lipo pack. It can go a true 200 watts.
You can also look at other mods, but getting true 200 watts of power safely, is questionable.
You can NOT get 200 watts of power safely from a 2 battery mod.
THIS is something often not known, over looked, or just forgotten in the rush to have a "cool" device that runs "200 watts". A thing that none of us are running to begin with.

Fuchai 200w by Sigelei, excellent quality without all the useless features like puff counters and flashing led's. I liked it so much I bought a second as back up. Ecig had them on sale for 40.84 a couple weeks ago, hard to beat for that price.
There is no BEST anything, what is best to you maybe garbage for me. So you need to find what works for you. I also can't see how 150 watts isn't enough power, lol!!!!!

LOL, I'm in the same boat. Really like my Sigelei 150 TC, it is starting to look pretty rough. Just wanting to try something different. Was looking at the Koopor 200 watt, but I hear it rattles, and that would aggravate me. The Joyetech Cuboid has got my attention now. The firmware is out now to provide 200 watts, and it supports all wire types.A Sig TC 150 is not enough power? You go boy!.
You may want to check into it further.
Someone posted the other day it limits output to 25 amps. So there are some type of limitations with that mod in particular.
Not trying to piss in your cheerios, just trying to give a "heads up".
Got the Fuchai and love it but two negatives for me are no SS in temp control and no way to upgrade firmware.
I have multiple rx's and a couple of cuboids, both are awesome mods and work astonishingly well with the tfv4 both full and mini. The rx is a bit better fit and finish wise, the cuboid is smaller in the hand only con being a bit of rattle in the fire button. I'd say you cannot go wrong with either of them. I am waiting on my fuchai, and kbox 200 to arrive so I can't speak to those as of yet...

Thanks for pointing that out, The specs on the Fuchai list a 25 amp limit as well. So I would think the capabilities would be similar to the Fuchai which has a 25 amp, and 8.4 volt limit as well.
Don't really need to upgrade the firmware, but it would be nice if they decided to make the screen reversible, offer ss in TC mode, etc.. The mod is what it is. The Fuchai should work great with any quality pair or 18650's.
Alright I'm pretty much trying to decide between the sigelei fuchia or the snow wolf. It's hard to decide between the two! I just don't want to be disappointed! What's yalls opinions o them. Which is a better mod? I really appreciate all the help y'all have given! This forum is so much better than the one I use to use! They were a bunch of assholes!

I have a Fuchai, and it tears up my battery's wraps at the "+" end when I remove them for charging, as does my X Cube II. Other than that, it has been pretty solid. So far my RX200 has been flawless all around...
Personally, I think the snow wolf is overpriced and over hyped. Nothing special about it, IMO.
I'm a Sigelei fan, but some of the mods they have been selling lately, I am less than impressed with them. I'm also a little miffed that Sigelei never makes their mods updateable, but their sister company, P4U does.
Were I to pick a new mod today? I don't really know. TC isn't a factor for me. I've tried it and I'm not impressed with it at this point. So a mod that will take dual batteries, fire up to 120 watts, have a spring loaded 510, and be relatively durable, that's all I need.

The RX200 has voltage advantage over the Fuchai because it is carrying three batteries. A Fuchai carrying 2 18650's can only hit 200 watts when the batteries are completely charged. Also the RX200 is capable of handling more wire types than the FUCHAI. I wanted all wire types and only 2 18650s, I think I'm fixing to pull the trigger on a Joyetech Cuboid.
The cuboid is nice! You won't regret it for the $35 you'll spend.
Unfortunately, to me, the Snow Wolf is no longer a player in the regulated box game unless you just don't care to try SS or TI wire types. I finally bought a roll of 316L SS and have been enjoying it in tanks and RDA's. Love the flavor. I sold my Snow Wolf. DNA Reuleaux, Evic VTC, X Cube II, with a RX200 on the way is what I've got for regulated. I also thinking about a Cuboid for the collection as well. You can buy 2 of these devices with more options than 1 Snow Wolf. I would like to see them step up on features with a new version because they are sexy devices.
If a Reuleaux DNA is not in the mix then you really can't go wrong with the RX. Great mod that's been made even better since the update.

Probably there is nothing I will be able to do with the Cuboid that I don't do with the Sig 150 TC. Currently I also carry a Kanger subox when I'm out of the house. Sort of hoping with it's small size and functionality, I'll just carry it with a tank, and throw an RDA in for when I stop by the shop.
If you ONLY use kanthal, then you probably won't get much benefit from the updates.
Sometimes when you update, it will add wire types to the temp control of the mod (like SS wire). Some updates may up the wattage of the mod (like the IPV3 Li did).
If you are happy with the features of a mod, as is the day you buy it, then you won't need to worry about upgrade ability. It just a nice perk for the mod. Not everyone does it and not every upgrade is great.
What about a hohm wrecker? It something different you don't see many people with. Yes its only 151 watts but it all you can expect with a dual 18650 mod. Seems decent plus if you go with the g2 you can supposedly tc any wire ( gasp, it can't be true, even kanthal?). According to them yes you can but the verdict is still out on how well it works.
I have the OG Hohmwrecker and I really like it aside from the not-so-ergonomic design. Hits harder than most other mods at the same wattage. I imagine the G2 is the same in that regard. I also just watched a Grimmgreen vlog where he tested TC with it on kanthal and it definitely worked. Sounds like s total PITA to set up though.
