I am trying to figure out exactly what model battery I have so I can purchase cartomizers for it. It is a 21st Century brand ecig. The only marking anywhere on the battery is a "K". I have a 510, in which the threads are slightly smaller in diameter than the 21st Century and a 4081, in which the threads are slightly larger. Does anyone know if there is an ecig that matches up to this? One that falls in between the 510 and 4081?

Weird.
The one I have is the opposite (battery has shallow male thread)and it came in the red kit I got from the Unocal 76 gas station

Just by looking at a photo there is no way for people to tell the difference between the popular KR808D-1 and the incompatible rebrander model KR808D-2. LeCig carries adapters D1 battery to D2 carto and vice versa
And if what you have is a FEMALE battery, then it is neither KR808D-1 nor KR808D-2 because they are male batteries. In that case, if it has a diameter of at least 9mm then it may be RN4081 but could also be an incompatible clone of RN4081. And there are some other possible things, some compatible with 510 attachments (but not necessary charger could fry it) and some not compatible w/ 510 nor RN4081.
1. Is it a male or female battery?
2. Is it a 2-piece or 3-piece ecig? (KR808 models have no atomizer, RN4081 is 3 or 2 piece)
3. Is it definitely skinnier than 9mm - if so then it is none of the above

The battery is female. The ecig is two piece. It is approximately 9-10mm.
The diameter on the 4081 cartomizer threads (on the left) is larger than my unknown battery.
The diameter on the 501 cartomizer threads (on the left) is slightly smaller than my unknown battery.
And as you can see the threads on the carts themselves are wider, not as tight as the 4081 or the 510.

Hey, the one I got is different (reversed connector) from yours and is indeed a kr808d2/E9. But mine was packaged as a one piece disposable and when the battery died I had to take 2 vice grips and crank the carto off the battery.
I honestly have no idea what threading that might be.

Wow. That's weird. The one I have is the only one they sell around here from that particular distributor. I wrote to the distributor and asked about the specs on the battery but didn't get an answer.
Thing is, I have five of these batteries now. When I bought my first one my daughter and my son were so happy about me quitting smoking they both (unknowingly) went out and bought me a starter kit of the same brand.
I know there has to be something comparable out there. Most of this type of ecig is a knock off of a well known kind. And I hate to just get rid of the batteries or keep paying $15 for 3 carts. I can buy carts for my other ecigs for $8 for 5.
I did try using atomizers and cartridges but it's like sucking on a straw. I like the drag I get from the cartomizer.

If it is not RN4081 or 510 compatible and is a female battery, then I recommend you give up on it and buy a known well-supported and well-liked model (and recommend manual batteries)
I got a 21st century kit when I first started. It is a 3 piece with battery, atomizer, and cartridge. The battery has a female connection.I have found nothing that would fit it so I assumed it was proprietary.
They suck anyway.

Mine never worked. I could draw on it until the auto shut off came on and got almost no vaper. I called them up an they sent me another atomizer and cartridges and still couldn't get anything. I almost gave up on vaping after that.
