My 2 Spinners V1 are giving me signals that they are like me... very close to their 'best before' date. So do I just go for Spinner V2, or do I bite the bullet and go for something like the ZMax kit ( lairey, convince me!)... linky thingywhere I should only have to replace the batteries when needed, and would be future equipped with proper charger etc for any other 'rush of the blood' purchases or consequences of legislation regarding types of batteries allowed.. I don't want anything too complicated, just push the button, and vape really. Also, I've gone back to the Vision ego V3 clearos, as they still work fine and the heads are reasonably cheap, so is something like an Aerotank really worth the extra. I tried several others last year including the Protank and Evods (can't remember which versions) and was disappointed. Speak to me as a newbie, because after 2 years I still am.

I'm not overly impressed with the Spinner II. The trouble is, Vision claim to have improved it, so even if it lasts no longer (between charges) than the old model, it could well be more reliable. and no, I don't think you should get into mods.... no point really, unless you are vaping a lot these days. Are you hitting the juice hard?

Must say that external batteries are more convenient and less problematic. I know you have to factor in a charger/battery cost but I was always murdering egos so for me external batteries are the way to go!
The zmax looks a reasonable size and I know its got good rep? at the end of the day you can alwys try out 14500 form factor if you get a decent charger like the nitecore i2 (which isnt so pricey? about £12)

Are you hitting the juice hard? Which juice are you referring to ??? Not really, only when at home, probably 15ml a week, and basically just the one juice.

Are you looking for something for indoor and outdoor use?
I myself love the spinner v2's for both indoor and outdoor use, but for solely indoor use then i would go for the VTR, it oozes with build quality.

Would you feel comfortable with a bigger and thicker mod like a zmax, having been so used to the spinner? If so, I'd say get one. You have more control, and charging / replacing batteries is so simple, so you only need the one device. If you think it will bother you, stick yo the spinners - they work for you and that's all that matters. I had a zmax and thought it was a great device, but I didn't keep it long because I got into mechs. They do have a reputation for wearing out, so have you considered a vamo? They seem a little more hardy, but you wouldn't be disappointed with that zmax. Plus you can get some smaller batteries for out and about, and bigguns for that evening vape. Of course, you could get a mech and dripper hooked up with quad twisted nano coils

There we go then; just get yourself a nice new battery and vape on. ... unless you think a mod that lasts a few days between charges could be useful... It's hard to say. Do I get by with Spinners and iTasteVV because I use my MVP/SID around the house to enable charging? .. or would I simply charge those 3 batteries more often and carry on vaping the same way... ???

If you're happy, with your V1's & they've served you well, Raffles, then stick with. I am happy with just Spinners & I did buy another after the V2 came out, but I chose to get another V1. After seeing some comments, I'm quite happy I did. The V1's do what they should & last well, plus, I do like the feel of them. lol

Or are you vaping Vamp Vape I'm sure it's Lucozade... but it says 'whisky' on the bottle. Thanks for all your comments by the way, I think I'm in one of those 'I want' but 'I don't need' moments. I'll just give the Lucozade time to reach those parts that others can't get to and then make a decision.

Ooooh, we missed your 2 yr vapeversary (or at least, I did), Raffles. So, I reckon you should make the next Lucozade a large one & then defo treat yourself to a new vaping toy.

Have a look here, it is a bit of an initial spend but you get vw mod, good charger, a protank 2 and a decent enough battery. Delivery is quick so less time for that "oh crap I shouldn't have" feeling. myepack.co.uk/mods/kanger-k-simar-full-kit.html
