I know this was brought up a while ago but that thread is buried. Also people have had time now to use the new Mini PCC.

I'm wondering on the durability of the PCC how it holds up, and also the ability to only hold the Super Mini batts.

If you had a choice now would you have:

A. Keep the New Mini PCC

B. Bought the short batts. with the standard PCC, that hold larger batterys BUT MOST IMPORTANT ARE METAL AND STRONGER? Have heard they are coming up with a new pcc for larger batterys Would you wait for a PCC and buy just batteries. LOL so many ideas

Also any added reasons why would help in my purchase choice i'm dieing to make . THANK YOU

Welcome Siciliansith! I have the mini pcc. I keep it in my purse it holds 1 - 65mm battery charging and 1 assembled battery w/carto. It would be perfect in your shirt pocket but I wouldn't carry it in my pants pocket. If that is the case then if I were you I would choose the standard pcc. I also have the hard carrying case (not a pcc) it holds either 2 batteries from the 65mm to the 78mm in length plus 4 cartos or the way I use it to hold 8 cartos no batteries (Gardners idea). I like to change flavors through the day, I also just carry 4 charged batteries so I don't need to charge in the mini pcc but I have that in an emergency. LOL Perhaps Frick could better help you, since he is a man and uses the mini pcc, he can advise you better for your particular situation and needs. ;)

A. As Evie said the mini PCC holds one set up bloog with carto and charges another. I use 65mm bats only with the mini PCC.

B. I was drunk one night and had it in my back pocket and fall down a curb and it broke. Ever since I use my V4L hard case PCC for party nights and for any other occasions or a simple dinner in a restaurant I use my Mini PCC from bloog.

Personal opinion: I like the mini PCC it may not be as sturdy as some other PCC's but thus far I have had no issues with it at all except when I broke mine which is really my fault. If 230 pounds fall on a plastic pcc chances are pretty high my ... wins over the pcc. In fact I thought it would look worse then it actually did but it was still broke.

Nevertheless its a great PCC and it looks fancy and if you want something for bar nights I rather get a V4L PCC that can fall from tables and can be thrown around.

I have both and use the mini pcc the most. I pack 1 short battery, 2 cartos and one drip tip in my mini-pcc. Plus, the mini-pcc has the option to pack a fully assembled bloog which is nice. I found that the 65mm batteries work great and I don't need to pack around the 78s.

That said, I am looking forward to something from bloog that will hold 2 batteries, a few more cartos, and charge my cell phone ;)

disclamer first... the only bats I've ever owned are mini. the only pcc I've ever owned is the bloog mini.

That being said, I think it's incredibly durrable. I've droped it several times, and keep it in my pocket all the time. I use it each and ever day. Still looks and works like brand new.

The ONLY problem I've had with it, is that the black rubbery finish has started to peel away on the corners and where the usb plugs in.

So I can't judge or compare to others, but the mini pcc is an A+ in my book, for what it's worth.

Thanks exactly what I was looking for. I know i'll have it in the back pocket go out and crush it. I figured thats the case with it being plastic anyway tomaybe mod it at home tomake it stronger? Maybe not from falling on it but maybe keep it ok if i drop it a few hundred times lol. TY for the input. If i didnt want to go all Bloog to start i'd look into other pccs but id like to start at a base level so when i make changes i understand them. example difference in charging times ect.. Wish bloog would get that PCC i hear about in the works that holds a full PV, a batt and few carts

Really scared about that mini pcc breaking up on me. Like a hard case. Any idea on a battery life on the standard pcc since we can't get a battery for that at radio shack?

And how do they compare in charging times i smoke alot when out.

I have vaped for a few weeks a few months ago my Fat BatT just didnt do it i jumped the gun

I haven't actaully looked, but I thought the battery was easily found? (cell phone battery)

That was supposed to be the whole reason for making it easily removable.. so it could essentially last forever. ???

The pcc charges about the same as a usb.. 1-2 hours. I vape a lot and have never killed 2 bats before the first was done charging.

Thanks find me some spinach i'll maybe use your coupon code lol.

As far as battery i was looking into how long have the STANDARD pcc batteries seem to last i dont believe there they are removable lke the Mini is. So im looking into the hard case but maybe the luxury of getting a quick replacement for the Mini at radio shack out weighs having to buy a new Standard pcc in 2 months. Thanks for the help appreciate it alot
