While you here.

I did my first solo build
Thanks again for all the guidance and tips!

Congrats.
Coils and wicks are the real nuts and bolts of vaping and you've got that ace'd.:nod:

Some photoshop/Irfanviewer skills to crop those monster pics and its a win. :)
 
@wiesbang - Well done on the build! If you are looking to buy second hand at that price range, it seems that the VTC Mini's are not often sold second hand at this stage (also check out this thread: http://www.ecigssa.co.za/evic-vtc-mini.t16866/) The only one that I've seen up for sale relatively recently is http://www.ecigssa.co.za/evic-vtc-mini.t17184/ but includes a TFV4 Mini at above your indicated price range. Perhaps you could find out if the seller would be willing to split the mod and battery from the tank?

I haven't seen any Presa 75W's second hand - perhaps partly because it's only been available locally for a short while (and if it's got a similar board to the VTC Mini, I wouldn't be surprised if almost no one wants to get rid of theirs).

The only ones that I've seen recently more or less in your mentioned price range would be the D2 already mentioned by @Andre (battery still needs to be purchased extra for 150 - 200) or an EHPro SPD A5 in a classified posted today (would work out to just a bit more than you indicate if you buy a battery, but the seller does not indicate shipping cost in the ad). The latter is primarily made of plastic, has a max of 50w (as opposed to the 75w of the other three mentioned), doesn't do Titanium or SS (the latter for TC at least) and has a slight 22 mm atty overhang - for you to decide if those are cons and to what extent.
 
My apologies - I checked the VTC Mini in the classifieds link that I posted again and it seems that the price (which I thought was very low for the complete bundle) is for the mod and battery only

The kanger mini rba is a good step up. The kit is about R2000 and really is a great step up. If you experience leaking, replace the o ring seal. You get 50w.

Then.. If you feel like you know what you are doing, get a rbx 300w with a tvf4 tank
 
I haven't used the IStick 60w myself, but ISticks (as you would know) are nice devices. However, it doesn't do TC for SS and a max of 60w (not firmware upgradeable to the best of my knowledge, so the power and TC materials won't change in the future).
True. But suppose for a second upgrade... What worries me it only uses one battery. A cloud chaser would drain that flat fast. Looks OK though
 
I got my iStick 60w TC from VapeClub (I do not know them or work for them) for R700 incl. a Samsung 25R battery. The central tank positioning is quite awesome. The fire button is really nice, the other buttons are so so. It does feel a bit big with a big tank attached. The battery life is a bit of an issue even with different batteries, but I think with most single 18650 mods you will encounter that. The battery indicator is quite tiny and at times you may find that you are unsure what level you at. Pass-through charging is an option but I don't use it because personally I don't feel comfortable vaping on a hot charging mod, and also the charging port is under the mod which is inconvenient if you plan to vape on charge. Anyway for the price, if 60w and no SS is good for you, it's a good deal at the price. Try vaping your tanks/rba's at 60w plus and you will see if you need the extra, most guys I know in the beginner category don't go that high.
