I've been using an MVP4 for years and the poor battery has given out and no longer holds enough charge to last an entire day.

I bought a GeekVape Aegis mini from a nearby store and it's lovely, but doesn't last an entire day. Not ok, so it has to go to the Mrs and I need a new mod. Had I had my wits about me and done my homework, I would have realised that the MVP was 4500 mAh and the mini was half that. Live and learn.

I'm looking for something specific:

  • I vape at roughly 20 watts.
  • Will ideally charge via USB ç since so does everything else now and finding micro USB cables can be a pain.
  • I'm not interested in taking batteries out and charging them separately. That doesn't work for me at all, I need something I charge over night and don't have to worry about until bed time.
  • The MVP4 was kinda ugly, but that's ok. Wouldn't mind something more attractive though. The aegis is quite sexy looking.
I think that's it. Just something which won't run out after a day of vaping.

Any ideas or recommendations would be welcome!
 
Eleaf istick ipower comes to mind. 5000mah 80w like the mvp4 they have been around a long time and are reputed to be relable for years.
no usb c tho.
 
Cheers buddy, they're pretty good looking (as far as boxes with a button on the side goes) and fairly cheap at the moment.
 
I need something I charge over night

Charging overnight isn't a recommended activity for anything - phones, laptops, mods...

It's pretty much standard advice from most fire services these days, given the amount of fires they've had to attend due to faulty chargers and overheating batteries.

Ive got 2 Smok V-Fin 160's. No problems to date with them. They are 8000mAh internal battery. Mine last a couple of days from a full charge. I believe Ukvaporwaves are knocking them out as a kit for under £30.
 
Thanks to everyone for their input, very helpful. Lots of great options, I'll have to consider whether the extra money for the MVP5 is worth it for the USB Ç and torch.
 
I wouldn't go for the Smok Vfin, the 8,000mah they advertise it as is actually a lie and the quality is shoddy, especially compared to Innokin and Eleaf products. The Eleaf Istick power mentioned before is a good shout.

Dug up this old post from Mooch about the Vfin (just another reason I stay away from their mods).
