If this has been asked, sorry.

A few years ago I started vaping, loved it but gave up. I finally decided the other day to give it a go again. I have an 808 which I love (no desire to switch yet). I have 3 black batteries and have been looking for some more colorful options. Truthfully I'm sick of looking online as I have been for a few days. The choices are overwhelming. Anyone know off hand a good supplier that has some more girly options than this basic black I have now???

Awesome, thank y'all so much!!! Going to order one from Halo and one from Smokeless Image to test them out.

I also see Halo has these tanks that I've wanted to try out, Crystal Clear G6 Mini-Tank. Has anyone tried these? The only thing I do not like about the 808 is refilling them because they never seem to taste all that good to me. Would these be worth trying out?

Are the Halo tritons 808 threaded? They don't say on the website and I can't tell from the picture.

Yes. Its called Vgo and was originally introduced by Kanger with an 808 top thread and eGo threads at the bottom. Some say you can use eGo toppers with them too but some say you cant.

I was looking at getting one at EVCigarettes for the capacity but just went ahead and got an eGo for less money and all the different clearos and tanks you can get for it.

Its not the same charger as the 808 though!!

That looks like the Kanger Esmart clearomizer. Since you are buying the battery there toss one in to test as you are already paying shipping. If you like it, shop around because you can find 5 packs for 12.95 at places like Vapor Kings

I tried those and the T4 and never put on another cartridge ever. Esmarts were nicer as they have a screw on top and the hit was more "airy" than the T4's.

Smokeless Image has the Volt Mini Clearomizers which are very similar. At $2.99 each you might consider getting at least one of those with your Smokeless Image order. They come in different colors too.

I've been using them on my 78mm Volts for a few days and they are the bomb.

They are listed under the "Cartomizers" tab on the Smokeless Image website.

generally eGo threads do not work on triton or SI's X2.
If you like Kanger T2's go for the triton tank. If you like T3(s), go for SI's tank.
They're perfectly interchangeable.

on 808's mini-tanks are fantastic. better flavor/vapor.

I thought I'd post these since the question came up:
All 1300mAh. All 808 and vGo threaded. Using Halo's triton tank, better built/quality than your average Kanger T2. Worth the extra few bucks in my humble opinion. I either rebuild the coils or get replacements from health cabin. I prefer this T2 type because it gives warmer vapor and it's a tad easier to fill than T3. If you like the T3 design, then SI carries them. None of the eGo threaded tanks fit on any of the batteries. You need to get the vGo type.

RED: SI's spinner
fatter than the other two, shorter than X2 and longer than triton. Battery life is not very impressive (but I usually run it over 4V), and because it's fatter button is kind of hard to press because it's jammed between the tank and battery outer shell. Their lower mAh models are skinner, so the button shouldn't be an issue I think. It's a nifty item to have if you get burnt taste with your juices and don't have higher resistance coils (goes down to 3.3V), or if you want to crank it up, but if so use higher resistance coils, like 2.5 or more. I believe SI only sells coils around 2.2(?), so with their native coils it's hard to take advantage of the higher voltage. Not an issue with T2 type tanks, the coils are readily available, whereas T3 vGo type is hard to find elsewhere.

WHITE: SI's X2. Longest of all 3. Also passthrough, which is nice and my favorite feature. Good battery life, but not as good as Halo. HUGE con is that it takes 6-8 hours to fully charge. But you can vape it plugged in via USB cable hookup on the bottom, so long charge time is not a deal breaker here. After couple of months it looks a suspicious shade of white. Wish I would have gotten it in darker color.

TITANIUM: Halo's triton. Most compact of the 3 and longest lasting. Average charge time is 2 hours. My favorite to carry around. Quality stuff.

Hope this helps. Of course all will take 808 threaded mini-tanks/clearos (or cartos), but when you have bigger ones that carry twice the liquid, you probably 1.2 or less ml in mini-tanks are not as appealing.

If you're getting a Halo G6, you will thank yourself if you get at least a couple of those mini-tanks to go with it! It draws easier, flavors are stronger, vapor is warmer, filling them is easier, you can see how much juice remains, they rinse out more easily, and the mouthpiece is more comfortable than a cartomizer. I use the cartos when my ecig will get bounced around and the tanks for when they won't. If the tanks are jostled while upside-down, they can leak - and that's the only downside I've found.
