Didnt know about that, where do i find that at?

Give me a few minutes, and I'll edit some info about mods into this post.

EDIT:

OK, the battery of your eCig is nothing more than a simple Lithium Ion battery with a momentary on/off switch. They make all different sizes of batteries, and many of them will power an atomizer very well, and for extended lengths of time (up to 3 days!). The trouble is that most people want very small, cigarette-looking batteries (at first). If you want a battery to last longer and perform better, than you need a larger battery!

Here's what is called a "box mod" that you can build yourself for a few bucks worth of radio shack parts:
How To: Build a NicoStick

Here's a thread where you can sign up for online mod classes (it's free, of course).

Here are some links to high-quality commercial mods for sale:

AltSmoke (Silver Bullet, BB) The Silver Bullet (SB) is legendary around here. Top-notch company, built like a tank, uses an 18650 battery that will last a light vaper 2 or 3 days.

Vapor Kings The GG line, my favorite mod. Expensive, and worth it.

Thagbuilt The legendary Chuck, (and Little Chuck), one of the most popular mods around. Custom graphics (whatever you send him).

That should get you started on your big-battery mod research. There are tons of others, and many of them are very good with lots of fans.

Sorry for the shorthand. 'XL' = extra long; the longer battery has more capacity. The eGo has a 650 mAh battery but you'd need an (inexpensive but from a separate vendor) adapter with it. With the eGo I get 8-12 hours on a battery with moderate vaping. See Janty USA - USA SHOP || Shipping in USA

The 808D is another model of cigarette but its battery connector works directly with your 901. The 'XL' is 380mAh. I'm guessing the battery in your kit is 180-200 and if so, you shouldn't have to take extraordinary steps to improve your experience -- as you sussed out, just a battery with more capacity.

For 808 batteries, see for instance Vapor4Life:: Because it's your life :: Electronic Cigarettes & Alternatives to Smoking

Hope this helps.

I would like to get a bigger battery, but im a newbie and confused. Whats a xl 808d battery?

It's a battery for the KR808D-1 style eCig that is longer (and lasts longer) than the regular sized battery. The KR808 is commonly referred to around here as the KR8 (pronounced: crate). It uses cartomizers which are a combination of cartridge and atomizer all in one. Here is a sub-forum devoted to the KR8.

Ah, I see Wumpus types faster than I do. :D
