FXRich Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 1 hour ago, Christopher said: EDIT: I just realized you're looking for the 160w and we carry the 200w (man with these watts....) I just put it on order (will arrive next week) What price point are you looking for? Free would be nice, but I know that's not going to happen. I think I paid SV about $37.00 for the one I have now, you have the store, the price is your decision not mine. My customers don't tell me what to charge for machining, I tell them what it's going to cost. The main reason for the 160w is there is no paint to come off. Also its a great mod.

Squid Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 In regards to the question "why get a 70 watt when 160 or 200 is available?" I have been vaping for 6 years, and don't ever need that much power. I use either subtanks or a nautilus mini. I have a Starre tank paired to my IPV4s and have rarely gone above 50watts with it. The higher powered mods do have dual batteies, and will last longer between charges. But in my preference swapping out a battery sooner is better than spending more on a high powered mod. For me a 200 watt mod would be like having a Porche to commute 5 miles on city streets to work. No offense to those that like the high powered mods, just putting in my 2 cents.

(I prefer built in battery as well) The differences are sometimes so slight, with all the inventory I look at them and go...why I've put them on order and they'll arrive next week as well.

I agree with you, I have both a 160w and a 120w, and use a .5 coil in TC mode. I know I don't get over 25w, except for the initial surge to get the coil up to temp. But the battery life is great, and I only use them at home because of the size, and weight. Away from home I use a 75w TC or a Subvod.

Christopher Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Thanks for all of the feedback. For pricing it's important that I gather feedback before hand because I've often heard on the forum (I was going to buy XYZ but MVS or Sweet Vapes had it cheaper) and for quite some time Roger had the prices set pretty steep. I really want VT to become the first stop shop for the members. I'm really passionate about making that happen. (We had a shipping issue for a while apparently but orders are moving out daily without a hitch) As for the wattage, I agree I've never gone over 20w at most. Usually I'm around 8-11+-. I think for a short while there, it became a "look how big mine is" game. The first time I saw a 200w device released I thought "well at this point we may as well start selling toasters" lol. Likely we'll phase out the 200W Kbox has it doesn't sell as well as the lower watt devices (though that wasn't the case late last year it would seem) Again, you guys are all awesome and I really appreciate the feedback, it's worth it's weight in gold. smacksy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cany Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Christopher Id be more than happy to get all my vaping stuff from V/T f the inventory/prices were close to your competition. This is the first vaping site when I started vaping and the site and its members gave me the greatest help to get me where I am today. Im a firm believer in keeping things in house and with family/friends . That being said I know its business and V/T has to make money I dont mind spending a "few" dollars more to support V/T But $20-30 Is too rich for me. Like others have said if you can stock more stuff and better pricing Id be happy to give you all of me vaping business Tam, Edna and Bebop 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smacksy Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I quit using throw away batts a long time ago..those were the mods/pens that had a built in battery, they wouldn't hold a charge after so many charge cycles and thrown away..That said I too don't vape much above 60-65w or so but I use high powered mods with replaceable batts..my two favorites right now are the 200w RX200 and RX200s..at around 60w these mods go for days on a single charge, and batt swaps are fast and easy..Price was good too at under $38 for the latest 20Os..It's nice to have all that power if I ever need it...just my 2¢Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a backup I use the 26650 100w Pico mod seen here, second from left...Its also a good mod to take with me out and about, as well as my trusty IPV4, almost 2 yrs old now and still working great...My brother had a DNA Panzer and the built-in lippo batts took a dump, not even 6 mos old..$135 wasted..I'm not saying mods with built-in batts don't work, they just don't work for me, lolSent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you're not ready to buy them now. With so many options from vendors it's difficult even for me to keep up with what's phasing in/out.

VapeMama Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Bebop: Shortly after I placed an order with S-V, I noticed on my "first" hacked account I had charges for $2, $9, then over $150 that I had no idea who the companies were let alone what was ordered. The 2nd (account) time, I had ordered, within 3 days, there were charges of close to $1000 on the account. The financial companies cancelled the cards and issued new ones. I won't take a chance on that happening again. Bebop, Edna, Tam and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Christopher I've been a member here for a while..been vaping for over 5 yrs now..I would love to order from your store but I don't see anything that meets my needs these days.. You talk about high powered mods being like toasters (lol) but maybe don't realize we like those 200w mods for alot of reasons besides having 1-200w available..like firing down to .1 ohms and handle all types of various wire as well as not putting a strain on the chip vaping at lower wattages...I don't see the enormously popular Reuleaux RX200 or 200s on your website, nor do see any RTA's like the Griffin 25 or the newer Herkakes RTA-2 either..(are they there and I just overlooked them?)Anyway, I do see a lot of gear maybe good for a newbie and that's good..folks have to start somewhere, lolI would order from you in a heartbeat if I found the mods/tanks I prefer today, Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smacksy Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I have both..The Griffin is good RTA (on the right)But in my opinion the Herkales RTA-2 is better..It has a larger build deck, larger juice channels and better airflow, plus it's easier to build and wick, as the Griffin can be finicky..both of these are 25mm..Griff holds about 5.3ml of juice, the Herk holds a true 6ml of juice...let us know how you like your Griffin after you get it...
