APV's vs. Blu-cigs / joye 510's

[RobFindlay]

I wouldn't trade my Provari iTaste MVP for anything in the world, but do you ever miss that small form-factor and the motor-memory of analogs?

I ask because I was out to bar the other night didn't pack a spare batt for my provari so my vape-buddy let me borrow his blue-cig and I forgot how much I missed that feeling.

Maybe someday we'll see an APV "micro-sized" enough that it'll rest comfortably like a pen in your shirt pocket but still produce a good solid punch in the flavor dept.

I still take the cigalikes out to bars with me. I just feel more comfortable using something like that around a bunch of non-vapers. For me, the added weight of an e-cig made them lose a lot of the motor memory of analogs. I used to leave a cigarette hanging from my mouth from time to time. That's just downright uncomfortable with an e-cig.

Dunno...I bought a blu cig the other day cause I forgot my device at home......bleh.....As far as space is concerned a pack of cig and a lighter take up as much room as a medium sized mod like a provari, or a bolt with a tank attached.
The automatic draw of most e-cigs sold at gas stops and convenience stores is a big drawback for me.
On the other hand I know a bunch of people who like the e-cigs so one must admit that his opinion is his alone and take it at th

The last thing I want to do is use a PV that reminds me and others how stupid I was to ever smoke. And I sure as heck don't want to be confused with a smoker.

And it's highly unlikely there will ever be a micro-battery that will perform at the same level or even somewhat close to a good APV. The economics do not support it even if it was possible.

I have a couple of Provarii and every once in awhile I think I would find a cigalike handy. I happened to find a couple of cigalike batteries while cleaning house. I will not use them very often but I think they will be handy when portability is everything.

Just today I found an old Smokeless Image Volt cigalike and charging cable which was from my original startup setup. I thought momentarily about charging it up but then remembered I no longer have the appropriate 808-threaded cartomizers to use with it.

Besides, I also remember why I put them away in a drawer for good after getting my first mods.

The tiny 450mAh or slightly longer 650mAh eGo batteries fit nicely in a pocket, and don't look crazy at all with a small UDCT tank on it. Kind like a ciga-like but no thicker than an AA and about 5mm longer than a real 100's cig. Put a 2.0-2.3 resistance carto in the tank and it hit's pretty damn decent with the 3.7V. I go to bars with two of these in my pocket all the time.

No PCC or the like necessary, and no glowing tip that at least to me, I found a bit embarrassing when I started out on Blu's.

I use my old volt or an ego battery+ clearo when I am out and about. I just find my vamo hard to drive with. The vamo is just the wrong combination of heavy and REALLY slippery. I don't feel like I can concentrate on the road while trying to use it without dropping it.

SmokTek has a nifty little mini eGo kit that I've thought about getting:

Crystal Mini eGo CE4 kit by Vision is a low cost e-cigarette that is rechargeable and refillable.

There are moments when using my puck mod feels like smoking my pipe. As far as the cigarette experience, it does nothing for me, and I smoked analogs for years. I want a good vaping experience, and I'm not going to get that from a cigalike. Moreover, with something that doesn't look like a cigarette, people ask me about it and I can tell them there's a way out of smoking that keeps you puffing without the tobacco.

true. if i can get a smoker interested in trying an ecig, i always feel like i've done a good deed.

also, i like having something different. most of us aren't smokers anymore, we don't want to be treated like smokers anymore, so why would we want to look like smokers?

I don't have a motor memory from cigarettes anymore. I picked up one of my friends tonight and it felt weird and way bigger than I remembered.

Plus when we went outside for her to smoke I was blowing way bigger clouds with my provari + vivi

I still carry my old manual battery with the stealth tip (no light). Keep it as spare for emergencies. Is also good for letting smokers try their first ecig,feels more like their analogs to them.works well enough for me when size/ portability becomes important.

NAH I like my mods I went from cigalikes to battery tubes for a reason and those reasons still holds true today.
