Wotofo MDura Mod 200W Box Mod
Introduction
For a while Wotofo have specialised in atomisers and in more recent times are best known for the Serpent, Profile and other collaborations, they gained even more clout in the marketplace with their takeover of OFRF along with the NexMesh brand! Mods from Wotofo in the past have not been released regularly but we now see the release of 3 MDura Mods in quick succession, the Pico like Mini, the Pro and this the standard dual battery MDura 200W Mod! The MDura 200W Box Mod is a dual 18650 Power only device which has both a puff counter and display colour customisation, a very simple device without TC or other settings which will appeal to those who just want to set the wattage and vape! Let's crack on!

Aesthetics and Ergonomics
The MDura came in the usual Black and Wotofo Green cardboard box packaging with branded rich transparent plastic lid! Looking through the lid I could see I had been sent the King Kong Orange version, the colour refers to the Leather (100% sure it isn't) wrap which covers the spine and most of the sides, the options are King Kong Black, King Kong Blue, King Kong Orange or King Kong Red.
At 105g the MDura for a metal (Zinc Alloy) dual battery device is lightweight but still seems very solid and aesthetically in my opinion looks really good but that will depend on how plain or not you like devices and the raised "MDura" on one side of the Leather wrap will either be loved or loathed, some just like branding kept to the minimum while others like bold aesthetic features.
So we have a Zinc Alloy main chassis and Leather wrap (according to the marketing) which covers the spine and sweeps around both sides, on one side of the wrap we have that raised "MDura" as described and on the other side two vertical rows of stitching, the whole wrap has what I would describe as breathing dimples! The wrap is very well cushioned making the device comfortable to hold but has a plastic like synthetic feel, it definitely isn't Leather as claimed but looks good! The wrap and main chassis is broken up by a Zinc Alloy Gunmetal bracket which is becoming very popular on devices, it has a gloss finish and mine came with scuff marks on one side:
Certain units of any device can come with blemishes or/and scratches so I might just of got unlucky, even so looking at the scuff marks reveals the finish on the bracket is very thin and their presence does give question marks about the durability, I can see the base metal showing through on the bracket sooner rather than later especially if used as a daily driver!
On the chassis on one side low down we have "NEXCHIP Inside" printed and in the same position on the opposite side a silicone plug with a USB symbol, removing this reveals the Type C USB connection. Moving to the face we have a horizontally positioned rectangular plastic fire button at the top and at the bottom smaller side by side matching navigational buttons, all protrude nicely and give a satisfying click but when shaking the device we get rattle from the fire button! Finally positioned centrally on the face we have the large colour screen.
Moving to the base we have printed safety stamps and grooves for grip and finally up top we have an 20mm 510 Stainless Steel plate which sits flush, the 510 is Gold plated and Spring loaded. Despite mine coming with scuffs on one side of the bracket in my opinion it looks good and comes in some nice colour options, it's lightweight, cushioned spine and quite compact size makes it one of the more suitable dual battery devices for use while out and about!

Fitting The Batteries
The MDura 200W Mod accommodates dual 18650 batteries that get fitted via the hatch door on the base of the device, just slide the door forward and lift up, we have grooves which help with this process. Orientation is vibrantly labelled at the bottom of the tubes and also both orientation and the labelling of the batteries A & B is in bright White on the underside of the door!
When the door is secured we have no movement or battery rattle whatsoever, I know over time some people have experienced this type of battery hatch door opening during use but only time will tell, certainly during my testing it was absolutely fine.

Display
The rectangular display has a lot of bordering (referred to has accents) around the information, these accents can be changed to be one of six colours! The display is bright and although how easy it is to read all the information changed depending which colour you set the display in general it was pretty easy especially the values depicted in White which stand out well although the titles such has ohm and volts etc which are in Black could be harder to see with certain colour accents!
At the top we have the 2 battery status bars, battery A to the left and B to the right, underneath each bar the charge is also given as a percentage which I like! Below the battery information positioned centrally we have the wattage and "W" for the unit to the right, above the W we have a Green padlock in either a closed or open position depending on the status.
In the bottom half of the display we first have ohms, followed by volts and then the 4 digit puff count, finally right at the bottom of the display we have vape duration!
