Replacement for MVP4

[oORobOo]

Forgot to mention I still have the original MVP and it still works lol.

My first vape was the MVP2 and that's in the glovebox as a emergency power bank, really great products and I like that they are putting all these bells and whistles on mods, I was hoping that's the way mods were going rather than down the pod route.
I'm 50/50 for Smok mods breaking on me within a couple months and I'm extremely careful with my stuff, might have just been extremely unlucky but I don't buy their mods anymore because of it. Tanks have always been great for me though, just that hit or miss aspect they have.

The MPV was the second vape I bought. First one was the Cool Fire 1, I bought the extension tube to fit an 18650 in it. . These were the two mods that got me of the cigs 5 yrs ago. I'm not a fan of the pod mods, seems a backward step to me. I'm currently using the Smok G Priv Baby with the SMOK TFV12 Baby on it. It's a great little set up.

Someone has to


I'm far less keen on it myself.

Depends what you consider to be a forward step.

I still use a couple of rebuildable tanks (having been through almost every other option) and yet my pods are the things that get used the most.

Not having really played with a pod, I do like interchangeable devices,, buildable, fillable with my own juice, external battery, capable of high power if needed . Last a long time on a charge. Etc. Maybe I better look into them a bit more if I've been misinformed.

You can get rebuildable pod form factor devices (or rdta pods for some).

I'd never even entertain the idea of a prefilled pod, that's just silly imo.

External batteries are good, and also unwarranted - depending on the situation. On the spryte, I find one charge lasts exactly one fill, which lasts about one work day or pretty much a day out - but the device is small enough to carry another instead of cells and bottles. On the odo, a charge lasts about a pod and a half, but carrying a spare pod is hardly challenging.

Integrated cells failing is something I used to have a concern about, but really isn't an issue with most devices. I have one spryte that's over a year old, and another a few weeks old - the older one has lost maybe 5% of it's capacity in that time, judging by the juice dregs left when the battery light flashes - and it's been dunked in a cup of tea, used in sub zero temps, left in the sun, covered in mud and rained on...

High power in a pod is contrary to how I use them and how I consider they're intended to be used, but many will do 40w, some will do 70-80w with an 18650. Pointless if you ask me, but hey.

Thing is, they do a decent job of doing what they do. If you want more then imo use a mod. If you want high power, use a mod. If you want epic cloudage, use a mod. If you want a single charge to last a week, use a nokia 6210 with extended battery and give up vaping

They're not a do everything device to me, they just are what they are and if that fits one aspect of your vaping requirements they're unmatchable.

If I think I'm going to be out/away for more than a day then I'll take my legend, or a pair of picos, with spare batteries, juice and fitted with an rta or two. But if I'm going into town, or going to work, or taking the kids out - it's a pod or two that goes in my pocket.

Thanks for the breakdown on the pod devices, appreciate it. The ones I've seen were not really my cup of tea but sounds like they have their place and do what they are intended to do. I have an arsenal of over 100 mods and tanks RDA's, RTA,s which I've found satisfy my every need on every occasion. Saying this, I have seen that they are very popular so will delve into them in more detail and see what I'm missing. Thanks again.
PS.... My phone will only last a week if I don't switch it on lol.
