Updated September 2016:

2015 / 2016 saw the vaping industry boom with new advances in e cig technology and the vape mod is undoubtedly one category that has been at the forefront of this movement.

This is fantastic news for us, the vaper. If you have found this page then you are no doubt looking for the best box mod available which is what we are going to show you today.

Now before you jump in and buy a box mod (or vape mod depending on what you call them) you need to ask yourself a few questions as not all box mods will suit all vapers.

For new vapers: Just because you’ve seen a MOD with a 100W power output doesn’t mean this is the best box mod or more importantly the best vape MOD for you.

If you know a little about box mods then just scroll down the the products themselves!

There are many ways of approaching what would be the ideal box for you, the first is considering what kind of vaper you are and what you expect to do with your box mod.

Are you looking to move on from Vape Pen/ EGO style e cigarettes?

Do you use normal tanks/clearomizers such as (or similar to) the Aspire Nautilus, Kanger Aerotanks, Genitanks or EVODS and plan to continue with these?

If so then you likely don’t need a 100W box mod. Our list starts at 30W and while these will still be overkill in terms of power output the build and Battery life are the big selling points and the features that will benefit you most.

It’s worth noting care needs to be taken if going for higher wattage devices, set the power too high and your coils will burn and of course be ruined.

Are you using sub ohm tanks (Subtank/Atlantis/Vision MK)?

Or wanting to explore sub ohm vaping but don’t want to build your own RDA’s?

If so you will need a box mod capable of handling coil resistances lower than 1.0 ohm. Most of the popular sub ohm tanks use coils around 0.2-0.5 ohms. Double check the coil resistance of your tank before buying a box mod to be sure they are compatible. All of the devices below are sub ohm capable.

I use a mix of tanks one of which is the Aspire Nautilus Mini. This is mainly used when I’m going out as the performance is great yet it doesn’t quite have the clouds of a sub ohm tank. I don’t want to be blowing out humongous clouds when I’m out in a bar!

70% of my use is with sub ohm tanks (with 0.5ohm coils) around the 20-25W mark, rarely going above 30W. This is perfect for me and will likely be where a high percentage of sub ohm tank vapers will sit.

There are sub ohm tanks that come with 0.15-0.3 Ohm coils (Sense Herakles, Vision MK, Atlantis Mega) and to get the best out of them they need to be used at a higher wattage, around 50-75W so if you can see yourself using coils in this range then be sure to buy a box mod with enough power.

Or are you in the more advanced bracket of vapers that uses drippers almost exclusively?

This is still kind of similar to the advice given for sub ohm tank users above. You will need a device with a high wattage output that can handle low resistance builds. Although if you are at this level then you likely know this already. It all depends on what resistance you are building at.

Integrated Battery or replaceable?.

• Do you want a device that has a built in battery and you simply recharge using a USB cable?
• Or do you want a box mod with a removable battery?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with buying a unit with an integrated battery (these are some of my favorite devices) but they are in essence disposable products. When your battery dies the whole unit needs replacing. This sounds worse than it is in reality. Under normal use a Lithium Ion battery should last a long long time. You will most likely be well on to your net shiny new box mod before the current one dies a death.

The other option is a box mod with removable batteries. This allows you to just replace the battery when it dies or decreases in performance rather than replacing the whole MOD. Most box mods, if not all, require you to buy batteries separately and if you don’t have a suitable charger then you will also need one of these. The most popular size of battery used is 18650.

You will also (definitely) need to learn what batteries are suitable for each device. I can’t state how important that is! Read our guide on batteries for sub ohm vaping here.

So there are lots of things to be clear with before making that purchase. If you are new to sub ohm vaping please read our beginners guide to sub ohm vaping here if that’s the direction you want to go.

So back to our box mod guide, this is simply going to break down into two sections.

1. Box mods upto 20-40W
2. Box Mods 50-70W
3. Box Mods 80W+

All of the box mods in the list below are regulated devices, meaning that they all have built in safety features. If we have missed out your favorite mod leave a comment below!

Jacvapour Series B Tilt MOD

The Series b Tilt mod from Jacvapour is one of the newest additions to the box mod world.

It’s not all about looks though – as my mother used to tell me – the Series B has all the functions you would expect and is powered by a removable 18650 battery. Add to that the quality of the build and we have a little star of a vape mod.

Oh… Did I mention the size, as you can see from the image above the Jacvapour Series B nestles nicely into the palm of the hand and my hands aren’t the biggest.

A follow on, and much improved version, of the SMOK X Cube 2. The H Privfeatures a huge 220W fo power. Overkill? For me personally, yes. But the H Priv has a lot more to offer than just large wattage numbers.

The H Priv will also cope with pretty much any tanks or dripper you can throw at it, firing coils in temp control from 0.06Ohm and in wattage mode 0.1Ohm.
