6v is rough to keep atty's going even by experienced users. You have to drip and keep it nice and wet and even then it definitely shortens the life span.
If your mod can handle them 18650's are really nice, a charge last's about 2 days with pretty heavy use ( I used a prodigy v1) Freshly charged they come in a bit higher than 3.7v so they are pretty satisfying and most importantly much easier on the atty's.

It definitely helps that they've made some advancements in that battery too. They started at like under 2000mah and the one I just bought, which I might add I believe just came out, is 3000mah. Pretty nice! lol

Thanks everyone I've now decided to skip the mods and just stick with my 510, its still costing me more then the cigs, but if I stick with a couple of flavors and keep my equipment working I should be able to come out ahead.

Thats interesting - I figure with my 901, A battery / atomizer combo only needs to last 3 days ($30 smoking in NYC) to break even, and the cost of juice is worked into that.

glad im not in NYC, its going to take me a months to recover my investment in a instead-smoke kit I bought that lasted a week, not to mention all the money Ive spent in shipping from different companies trying out liquids and the kit I had to buy that actually works.

Wish I was as rich as you

i dont know what everyone means by high voltage vaping leading to short atty lifespans. i have 6month old 510 attys (two of them) that i have been using on my prodigy for that long and they are still great! i even sometimes lean on that button for 5 seconds or more, depending. i really treat them terribly, i will use them even though theyre hot, etc. i do rotate them once a week and give them an alcohol bath and drying period. i dunno, i havent lost one yet, but there's 35 more in a baggy ready to step up.

funny thing is, i always thought the atty would be the only thing to replace. the switch on my prodigy is being temperamental, and so i have ordered the prodigy v2. hopefully the mechanical switch will be much more consistent.

Stock batteries are 3.7. 6v only comes via mod. You can get 5v with passthroughs.

Your fine, regular Ecigs are regular voltage. I just ordered from RMV too, gotta love their quick shipping. I bought my mother a 510 kit and juice and a portable recharging case for her for christmas from them too. I've prolly spent about 150 bucks through RMV in the last couple days. So I think I'm a pretty valuable customer now. lol

I just tried cleaning my atty, you know blow out the excess juice, dry off the bridge, then I filled my cart, and put a drop of juice directly on the bridge, and it hit once and died! WTF!?!? I mean thats 2 attys dead in less than 1 week! I cant afford to even quit smoking!?!?

Two words : BOIL IT.
