There's also Joye ego-t 18650 Mod Battery if you don't like the e-Power. It is new so there hasn't been a chance to see how they hold up long term, but Joye is generally well thought of. This is not the complete kit however. You'd need to get batteries and a charger. It is also quite a bit bigger than any regular eGo, but battery life could be at least twice what you'd get out of an 1000 mAh battery. FWIW, I've never tried one of these; just trying to inform you of your options.

Keith I think you might be on to something. I have the Lavatube so already have batteries and charger. Thanks a lot, going to go read more.

Actually a correction, it's only 1000mah - and I don't really know why you'd want to use the eGo wall charger with it.. it's a passthrough which means you can use it while charging, it has a mini-usb connector in the bottom of the battery. You could however use the wallwart from the eGo charger to plug a usb cable into and charge.

I tried one of those Sunday. Very nice however much larger in the hand. it's about 7/8" diameter, the button is a soft rubber. Unfortunately it's 18650 which kinda defeats the purpose of the regular eGo form factor and the reason why I carry an eGo passthrough is for it's size related to charge, output and the ability to plug it in and use while in the car or at my desk. I have my 18650 lavatube for sitting around in the evening and watching movies.
1000mah will work as well. As far as why I'd want to use wall charger...it's actually not me, I just know my husband therefore I want all options as possible.
Do you have a guesstimate as far as the length on the mod? He hates the size of my LT so he probably wouldn't care for the mod. I was thinking since we already have batteries/charges it would simplify things.
I guess I need to go revisit the pass through

How's that?
Edit: Went back and looked at it, image resolution is horrible. Just over 6.75" oal, 4" to battery cap threading. Keep in mind I do have a titanium tip on that cart so that adds over .75" right there.. 9/16" diameter.

Thanks randomness, it helps. I found a thread about it and cyberwolf stated the dimensions in mm which after converting it appears to be close to the size of a Lavatube. He thinks my LT is way too big to carry and I have to agree. I am thinking I'll wait until Brent receives his stock of the KGO next week.
The Firefly battery 650 or 900mah have a 4 click on/off and while off they become an LED flashlight. They also have an LED ring that changes colors to let you know the approximate battery charge... Liberty Flights carries the batteries and starter kits...
Thanks 1atom, I love options. This would definitely work with all my 510 accessories. Have you personally ordered from Liberty flights, if so how fast do they ship?
They ship very quickly... I was even able to get them to add some additional stuff to an order today and they went and pulled my package that was all set to go, opened it up, added my additional stuff and refunded my shipping charges on the additional order... I highly recommend them...
I have ordered 3 times from Liberty Flights, and it always takes them 2 days to get the shipment to me. BTW I am in NC and they are in California.
Thanks everyone, I haven't made a decision yet but will post when I do. The pass through have pretty good reviews.
To expand on the definition, a passthrough allows you to put your ecig (less battery) on a small cable that allows you to vape using the USB port for power. Some are direct and let you use the USB port to provide power and others employ a battery box on the cable so that the USB port charges the battery and the battery is used as power for your ecig. This protects your USB port by providing power through the battery while it charges. You can also disconnect the passthrough once the battery is charged and use it to vape as you move around the office or at home.
Many people use a passthrough at work to save their batteries for times when they aren't at the computer. There's always a possibility that the USB port could shut down if your atty draws too much power. If the shutdown circuit fails, your motherboard could be fried. This doesn't happen often, but it's a remote danger.

Whoa... not liking the sounds of frying motherboard. Nothing like being counter cost productive in quitting analogs if this happened. Definitely something to consider with my luck!
The Elite 808 has a 3 click shut off... use it all the time, as my pv stays in my pocket at work for the numerous stealth vapes that occur there

The 5 click shut-off is a worthless feature IMO. Just unscrew the atty or carto one turn and it won't go off.
I got some knock off 1100 mAh batteries and they use a 3 click on/off feature.
