Advice, please

[Tempesta]

Hello, all. I am pretty new, and seeking advice on mods. Is there such a thing as a small mod that runs on a rechargeable and replaceable battery, is sturdy and can take a variety of tanks? VV or VW okay but not necessary, and not ridiculously expensive.

Thanks!

I think the L-Rider Robust runs on a small 14500 battery (AA sized). I dont know much about this mod, but I know it has VV and resistance meter. L-Rider Robust & Robust-A : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more

The iTaste VV/VW has been making the rounds lately. It does not have a replaceable battery, but is around the size of an ego. A lot of vendors are stocking these, so you can shop around for a good price.

There are also a bunch of mods that will work with an 18350 battery. These are pretty small at the smallest setting. These include the Vamo, Sigelei Zmax, Tesla, Innokin SVD, etc...

The issue with small mods is they don't have the battery life that the bigger mods do.

How small a battery? Many mods have an 18350 size. That battery is 700mah, which will get you less than 7 hours of vape time. When I use that size I carry 4 batteries with me, which fit in a battery case. A ProVari mini is 3.48" just ot give you an idea of size.

I agree with susie, it depends how small is small? and what would you like it to do? there is a trade off for the electronics in the size and battery life. do you want short or a tubemod thats thinner like a twist?

 

[Tempesta]

Something fairly discreet. Short AND slim is too much to ask, I suppose. I am willing to trade off lower battery capacity for small size.

I would not recommend anything that uses smaller than a 14500 battery for a mechanical mod, or smaller than an 18350 for a variable voltage mod. The above L Rider Robust uses a 14500 battery, and the reviews all say that that size battery is just too underpowered to use higher voltages with. However, that size would be fine for a mechanical mod.

I have an AltSmoke BB that you might have interest in. Mechanical mod that uses a 14500 battery, is made from strong and durable aircraft aluminum and can use a variety of tanks. Mine is black, and my daughter has pair in pink and purple.

VMod-XL bottom feeder mod from Vapage. Above is the larger of the two models offered, using an AW 18650 IMR battery that lasts me nearly 2 days of use, and a 9 ml in-mod removable tank. The smaller VMod-V2 uses a 14500 battery and a 4 ml tank.

I love my vmods for out and about, but I also love my GLV mini.

GLV also has a super mini size. They are very sturdy, made in USA, stealthy, very high rated button and with an extension/adapter work well with tanks....of assorted sizes. It doesn't have any extra bells and whistles except being a very reliable and well made small battery mod. Both the mini and super mini use 16340 batteries.

You might be interested in this---they are going on sale & there is a current contest for one:

Here's a super mini -- in someone's hand (probably a guy) with a fairly large tank on it.

Found an exceptional price on the Robust A from Vapin in the Cape in Florida; I did read and watch all the reviews, but, for what I want, it seemed ideal. The robust A arrived today. It is smaller than I expected, and I think it will work well. Now, if the tanks will just get here...thanks, wveryone, for your comments.
