Best PV for long drives?

[netbususer]

Hey everyone...

So I initially saw an advertisement for one of those Blu model e-cigarettes and decided to look for some reviews before purchasing it. I'm incredibly glad I did so and happened to stumble into this place. That was about a week ago. I ended up buying an evo from intellicig (M402) and am actually rather happy with it! I was formerly a 1.5-2 PAD smoker but managed to quit for a year or two... got back on the analogs but kept my habit down to about 5 or 6 sticks a day for the past few months but decided I needed to quit them so I could exercise a bit more without feeling out of breath.

Anyways, I am now here and have been seeing all of these mods and I'm rather impressed with them. I would really like to get a Buzz or an Ali'l, but don't have the funds for that currently. I do travel quite a bit and previously my smoking would easily amount to a PAD while driving so I'm looking for something with a bit more battery life than my M402 for the long drives. I think a juicebox mod would be best, but I am unsure and am open to suggestions!

Anyways, I've really enjoyed reading around this place and look forward to a continued membership!

I would look for some kind of passthrough/car plug-in set up. That way, you can just plug it into the lighter and you're good to go for as long as you want.

I'm not sure what type of cartride/atty your used to.

Consider a USB Pass-Thru to a Cigarette Lighter Plug with a USB outlet in it.

Example of USB Pass-Thru

Regards and enjoy your driving!

GGTS +UFS. Load an 18650 in it for huge battery capacity. UFS tank holds a TON of juice. Your good for the entire drive.

 

[rob.p]

totally agree on the passthrough

 

[unholy79]

My current PV is a Brother EGO 900mAh, with the blue foam and a type-a atomizer I can usually get a few hours out of a fill, and at least 24 hours out of the battery. Previously I ran a Brother 510 180mAh, and before that the Blu's. I also keep at least cart/atomizer combos on me to allow for quick swap or if I just want to take a different flavor route. Have a 12 hour drive coming up in July though, so I may get a passthrough then for my 510 atty's.

As was stated before a passthrough with a cigarette lighter adapter would be ideal for the lng drives so that you dont have to mess with battery changes. Cartos are a must as dripping and driving is a bad idea and carts are just way too much of a pain in the neck to deal with. You might also consider a MAP tank if you don't want to deal with carto swapping.

he said he couldn't afford an ali'i or a buzz, so the GG with AFS is out of the equation.

I would really like to get a Buzz or an Ali'l, but don't have the funds for that currently.

I'd get a cheap mod like the Roughstack: Maxi Roughstack V2. Slap a high mah 18650 battery in it and load a few cartos like these: Smok Tech Dual coil LR 510 Mega Cartomizers 1.5 Ohm, 5 Pack - E Cig : Boge Leo | Joye eGo & eGo-T | 510 | Cartomizers | E-juice | Electronic Cigarette | eGo Tank | Leo. They pack a helluva vapor and throat hit. They are the best vape I've found yet.

Don't forget to buy batteries for your PV mod! Buy e-juice too!

Just get a Go-Go with 1300 mah battery and a 3ml carto. You can drive a long ways before having to change carto or battery.

when I went on a 14 hour road trip I used a Tekk mod with a MAP tank, got me through the whole trip!

One thing to consider if you get a Passthrough......

If it's a 5v, and you're used to vaping on 3.7 batteries, you might want some higher resistance cartos to go with it. ESPECIALLY If you've been getting LR stuff (2ohms and lower).

Another option is to get the Battery/Passthrough hybrid this is just a 650ma eGo battery with a charger built into it. That'll stay at the lower voltage, and cost well under $30 with a cord and cone.

 

[Credo]

To me it's just as easy to keep stock sized Metal CE2 XL cartos and swap them out, but if you want...
CE2 Tank Mods...very inexepensive:

Stormy's Vapor Cellar

Or you can build them yourself with a little creativity, hand full of cheap syringes from the pharmacy, and a few rubber rings from the hardware store.

For battery life, flexibility and throat hit, you might want to check out the variable volt Darwin from nhaler.com. I get 21 hours on a charge and many are reporting 30+ hours on one charge. Plus you can vape as you charge it because it doubles as a pass-through.

 

[lynleestar]

I love threads like this because you get a different answer from every poster~!

 

[Credo]

I love the GGTS and the Darwin, but both are over $200 and you might have to wait weeks to get one

I'm waiting on a Darwin right now *excited*

I'm surprised the Reo Grand folks haven't chimed in yet.

 

[Credo]

Oh, some inexpensive juice feeding boxes in the $50ish range...average battery life depending on the type you put in them. Don't think either include batteries or chargers tho'....

The Wet Box

3.7 v Box Mod

Next up are a couple of top feeders attachments that'll work with any ole battery or pass-through you choose:

I think the Op is on a budget. The Grand would be my first recommendation too. 18650 with 6ml juice bottle. How far do you want to drive?!
