A PV With A Little Strength

[Infernal2]

Saddened to say,my job is costing me a fortune in PVs. I had recently purchased a Joye eGo and absolutely loved the thing as well as making a simple box mod to give that realm a try. My problem? I work in an environment with an incredible amount of particulates, mostly old concrete, and its destroying my e-cigs. I've tried simple cases to hold the e-cig which works to some extent but I end up carrying way more stuff on me than I need.

So what I'm looking for is a PV with a little strength. I'm taking a good hard look at some of the big battery mods and while I like the Chuck, its a bit too big for my tastes. I need something that is going to hold up in a harsh environment so any suggestions would be great. I'd prefer something in 5v or adjustable but at this point I'm willing to accept anything that's going to hold up.

I dont think there is much out there that will stand up to old concrete dust. If you are having a problem keeping the ego out of harms way, i dont see where going bigger will help. What part of the ecig or the box mod is failing?

If its the switch, try the saber touch. If its the attys/cartos, doesnt matter what you have. Maybe wrap the ecig with saran wrap and just slit where the mouth piece is and use a condom cap from a carto to keep dust out of it while not being used? If the Chuck is too big, then most other big batt mods will more than likely be too big as well. I use a GLV2, which is relatively small, at least side by side with a saber. The pictures on the website are misleading.

Well, its mostly the switch, don't get me wrong, its the atty/cartos/drip tips too but I keep a condom on those. But I'll check out the Saber.

If size and variable voltage is the issue, FISTPACK.

It's a bit pricier, but it'll be ALL that you need.

Here's my vid review:

Hmmm. This is unique.

Perhaps, you might find that some of the flashlight mods would suit your needs. There have been a few of them (in the modding section) that were built from high end products... ie, waterproof, dust proof, etc.

Of course, it eventually comes down to the weakest link which would be the atty and it's connection to the body of the unit. But with a *sealed* flashlight-ish device, at least you could take most of the device (battery and perhaps the switch) out of the equation and just deal with the atty as you are now?

BornAgainst - Thank You! For a complete and well done review. Based on this review, I put a Fist Pack on my "Dream List". Many people will find this informative and helpful.

Thank You!

You are very welcome!

I also did one for the Saber Touch, if that is of interest to the thread....I really enjoy this mod too, and the switch is just outstanding.

Buying mods can be real confusing, so by all means, never hesitate to ask questions.

It's basically a brass pipe with an atomizer attached.........no switch at all. It seems pretty damned indestructrible! It doers both 3.7v and 6v, depending on the batteries you use.
There are a number of very positive reviews on it. Here's one:
