The little brother of the Espion dual battery mod. The Espion solo is a top notch replaceable battery mod capable of housing three battery types, the 18650, the 20700 and the 21700.

The mod has all the features that a vaper want but it’s also an easy device to get to grips with for those newer to the vape mod scene.

It’s a beauty of a device as well with it’s solid build and an easy to read screen. There are not a lot devices like this mod.

@eyeball kid which one do you prefer?
I must admit, I'm yet to try the epsilon solo but it looks very compact and great for vapers looking for flexibility in a compact size.
I was a huge fan of the dripbox 160. Kangertech where we'll ahead of the curve with their range of squonk mods. They had a reputation for being pioneer's after the much loved subtank range which I know many still use daily.
The dripbox 160 worked flawlessly but era's became a little too large to sit flush ontop. Actually your recent df box reminds me of a more compact and up to date version.
I've never ever had an issue with an innokin mod. There quality is always first class.
As you know I'm testing your new tinker currently and I actually said when I opened the box that the mod reminded me of the old Jordan high top trainers from my youth. So far it's working very well and is the most compact three cell mod I've used. Huge tank too. The flexibility of the new board is incredible.
The eleaf pico is a design classic and I think will always have a place in the British vapers collection. A very classy and simple design in a small package. I own two and use them constantly. Reliable and sturdy. As you say they where a little bit limiting due to the maximum rta able to fit ontop being 23mm but now there's the 21700 version which offers more flexibility and power with only a slightly larger frame. Very cleverly designed.
 
I do think that the next year will be a year of large and tiny mods.
We've got a huge number of dual cell mods available currently but those who seek a little more power or battery life are currently restricted to a few designs unless they pay high end bespoke prices so the new reuleux designs will be very welcome. Equally more vapers are advancing past the pod stage and want something compact, adjustable yet stylish. The recent baby tarot was almost perfect.
It should be an interesting year ahead.
