I saw a post about these on the Canada board yesterday.
It's the first time I'd even heard of them, but I couldn't resist and I ordered a couple.
They look to be about the same size as an SD Keyring and lately the SD has been my favorite.
I'm hoping they're good, it would be nice to have a manual stealth size battery to accompany my SD's.
Someone posted a link to a US site that has them, NettMix Custom Vapes.
eGo Mini Battery 350mAh - NettMix Custom Vapes

Curious as I wait for them to arrive, has anyone else given these a try?

PS: NettMix shipped on the same day I ordered them and they sent them Priority Mail.
I've never done business with them before, but they're off to a fantastic start with me.

My backup 650mah EGO is a mini. in all honesty it was mislabeled and I thought I was ordering a fullsize, but I fell in love with it for a back up! Lasts about 3-4 hrs using LR cartos or visions and I chain vape. Very good size for a backup:)

Don't I know it! Wish more places were carrying these. I've seen kits on 2 other sites, but I just wanted the batteries.

I just checked the site I "accidentally" ordered mine from and they clear inventory for the ego c standard batts:) Looks like vendors are calling the pre ego c batts mini's to clear stock:)

The mini's are rebranded Ego 650mah batts. Regular size they come in it at a little over 7 cm (71mm)
Since ego C batts and twist came out larger the old inventory is being relabelled Mini:)Here is a pic View attachment 116287
And here is the link to go get one or just check to see if your favorite vendor still has ego T 650mah still in stock...
AltSmoke.com | Personal Vaporizers | Electronic Cigarette | Ecigs | Authentic Joye eGo or eGo-T 650mAh Battery

Not exactly. The mini is 350 mah and is roughly 52 mm (just over 5cm). These are just a bit longer than the SD Keyring and have the ego connector (hence the longer length).

The picture I linked shows a 650 mah ego and the mini side by side. I couldn't get the image to insert. Sorry :blush:

    This is definitely different from the 650mah eGo's, much smaller and rated at 350mah.
    I believe they are still very new and not being offered by many venders yet.
    I've only found one US vender and the rest are in the UK and Australia.
    Anyway, I've been very happy with these. I switched to using 1.7ohm super shorty cartomizers I got from Madvapes and a shorty cone. This combination has no become my daily vape solution. The super shorty carts are available from a number of venders. Some call them half carts. Great match for this battery:) They are about the size of a cigarette filter and overall the length of the battery with the cartomizer on it is three inches. I haven't been able to find the super shorty cartomizers in any color but chrome, I've always preferred black carts for some reason, but it really doesn't matter. They hold 15 drops of juice and they work great with my 100% VG juice. This combination is really pocket friendly and pumps out great vapor!

    I got one yesterday, and imo it's not nearly as good as an SD keyring.

    The only cartos it really works with are LR boge (it produces next to no vaper with the cartos that came with it)

    The button feels really cheap (like its going to break and fall off when you push it)

    The SD keyring is way better imo

    Have been using for 2 weeks and loving it. Like mecocina, manual button on mine seems fine; may be too early to tell, but for now seems sturdy. Battery life much better than I expected; good vapor and th. Have an SD Key Ring as well; they compliment each other for my needs (auto vs manual) when stealth vaping. No complaints what so ever.

    I received two on Friday. They are sooo cute! Won't replace my Twist or KGO, but they will be great for out and about and for vacation this week. At $12 a batt if one gets dropped or gets wet, oh well.

    As a side note - I ordered on Wednesday from Nettmix and received my order on Friday. Part of the credit goes to USPS but........Very fast shipping from Nettmix. They shipped my order within hours, I couldn't be happier.
