What should i buy

[ciderhead]

OK peeps have laid the cloupor dna30 clone to rest, question is what should i buy,dont want a mech and wont buy another clone,my ipv2 is ok but i do want a back up, dont know jack about boards/chips (well only McCains oven variety) so what do you guys think, not bothered about the price but around 50w plus is what i had in mind, looking for something reliable, any suggestions.

More than enough power for when you fancy it and seems well built www.p-vaper.co.uk/epages/es152439.sf/?ObjectPath=/Shops/es152439/Products/226 alternatively there's the 50w version for around the same price.

Yes i was looking at that earlier, like i said i know nothing about what board i should go for as that seems to be the major fail on a lot of these vw mods.

The yihi chips seem to have a lot of love but yeah you're right about the chip being responsible for the majority of failures. I do like the sigelies though they seem to pack a lot of punch for the money if the extended run time of 2x 18650 batteries takes your fancy it's well worth considering.

good review on it here allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/thread/44856/sigelei-100w-box-mod-slideshow?page=1&scrollTo=782543

Yes it does, run time that is, not worried so much about the high wattage because i rarely go over 25w, am i right in thinking that if i get something that is capable of high watts it is less stress on the board running it well below its potential.

Couldn't hurt as you're not stressing the chip by pushing it to the limits but in an ideal world manufacturers would be making stuff which would cope with the stated specs no matter how hard it was pushed (that's not the case sometimes but damnit they should oooh and they do a range of silicon skins if they tickle your fancy

Ok dalealan thanks for you input,much appreciated,  not interested in the skins (i am a old git, 68 and counting lol) just looking for something reliable, will keep my eyes on the reviews for the SIG

They're quite good for keeping it in pristine condition and aiding grip allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/thread/45474/sigelei-100w-50w-silica-wraps good luck with your decision and fingers crossed it proves reliable.

I would personally wait for the sigelei to iron out any issues that we arise with it being the first release.
My rule of thumb is to try and avoid anything until it's at V1.2 of V1.5

Maybe check out the Vaporshark Rdna or if you want something cheap the new eLeaf iStick

Large rechargeable battery and from all the reviews I'm seeing lately it's built like a rock

If you want reliability try a Vaporshark DNA30 or rDNA30.
