Hello VU! Today I am reviewing for you the Snowwolf Mfeng Kit! Here we are with another dual 18650 device that offers really nothing new. I guess the Mfeng is all about style and with it's interesting design choices, you'll either love it or hate it. "But dark, how well does it perform?" Read below for my evaluation.
I have had the Mfeng Kit for 3 weeks now and feel I can give a fair assessment of its quality.
This device was sent to me from HealthCabin for the purpose of a review.

Mfeng Kit
Snowwolf is one of those companies that I've seen the name thrown around quite a bit. Some good things, some bad. It's kind of up in the air when it comes to Snowwolf quality. The Mfeng, and I'm assuming all Snowwolf devices, is manufactured by Sigelei who had a good run for a while, dipped in quality, and are possibly making a comeback? I don't know. All this to say I wasn't sure what to expect going into this review as I've never owned another Snowwolf device, and the only other Sigelei device I've had is the Kaos Spectrum (which I liked, but many others have had issues with). There are things to like about the Mfeng, and things that are just outright bad. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's jump off this review and start at the best place possible: the top.Top/510: The top of the MFeng houses a groved 510 plate. The threading on the negative is smooth and it has a spring-loaded, gold-plated 510 pin. 28mm attys will sit flush on the device, but 30mm overhang just a bit. If you're not worried about overhang, you probably won't be able to fit anything over 32mm as there are styling walls on either side of the device that will prevent that.
Buttons: Along one side of the device is a large fire bar with groves along the top and bottom. It is supposed to allow you to either fire it from the top or the bottom. However, the bottom one on mine just never worked and I thought it was only there for style until I saw places talking about a double fire button. One the front of the device along the bottom are the +/- buttons. All buttons have a decent clickyness to them, however, the +/- buttoms do have a bit of play and rattle.
Screen/Menu: The screen is of a decent size and color, however, I'm not really a huge fan of the color scheme they went with. It just looks too old for the device. I personally think the device looks decent, so I don't know why they didn't go with a classier screen layout/color scheme to match it. This is true for both of the UI options...just no. The menu of the MFeng is fairly simplistic, only allowing you to modify a few options. My biggest gripe here is, when you are adjusting your Wattage/Temp, the left button is your - and the right button is your +. When you enter the menu it is flipped. Why would you do that? It just doesn't make sense to me. I would much prefer some consistency.
Battery Panel/Tray: WOLF FACE!! Sorry, but it was the first thing that popped into my head. Either you're going to like it or not, but the battery panel on the back of the device has a humongous wolf face on it. I kind of like gaudy things, so I don't mind it, but this is going to be one of those love it or hate it things. I thought it would be a bigger issue, and even though I can feel it in my hand when I hold it, it's not really uncomfortable. The battery panel is held on by some large and powerful magnets: two the top and one on the side. No worries about it accidentally falling off.
The battery tray is...orange. Whatever I guess, but I would have preferred white or black. There is a nice sized battery ribbon that will wrap under both batteries for easier removal and battery orientation is nice and clearly marked on the tray.
Size/Styling: The Mfeng is a pretty nice size for a dual 18650 device and I actually like the styling. I think it looks pretty classy (well, with the exception of the wolf face) and there are 21 color options!! Yes, 21 color options! So there's sure to be something for everyone. Although, I really wished there was a murdered out one, where the wolf face was black as well. The Mfeng is quite heavy, though. If you're ever in a situation where you need a weapon, you could probably do some decent damage with this thing.
Performance: In Power Mode, the Mfeng performs quite well. The device fires quickly and consistently. I haven't had any issues of misfiring or not working when I expect it to. I have used many different attys on the device and it hit very nicely for each. TC mode is a different story. TC is very inconsistent and has very bad dry hit detection. To put it frankly, it just don't work. Don't expect to be using this for a good TC experience.
Wolf Tank: Speaking of garbage, the wolf tank is just that. Well, okay, I guess I can't say the tank itself is terrible, but the coils were very bad and I didn't take more than 5 hits off each of the two coils that were in the kit. Why? Because I got a terrible metallic taste off of each coil and I just would not vape it for longer than that. I don't know if all coils will be that way, but both of mine were and that's all I can present.
