So this is my question, which i'm looking for opinions of..

I have Volt batteries, 2 manuals and 2 autos. But I also have an Ego twist so I picked up some of the Vision Nano's, I have really enjoyed using these little guys on my Ego twist battery.

So a couple questions..

1) Would these work on my Volt batteries if I got an adapter??

2) Would an adapter or just getting a clearo made for the 808 cig style batteries be a better option??

I am just a lil confused on which way i should do this. I really just want something I can take to like work, which is usually where i use my cig style batteries. I wanna get away from cartos and go to a clearo.

Thanks for your help.
 
Either one is fine. I have adapters to go to the 808 for my stuff that's eGo threaded. There's certainly no issue with going the other way if you prefer that.

About the only thing an 808 adapter won't work on is something like a T3 tank, which requires the outer threads. To date, I haven't found an 808 with the Volt X2 style outer threading, but maybe I just haven't looked enough.

You haven't looked enough. ;) Just do a search for 808-ego, iGo or vGo. :) And they do make ego-808 adapters, so a T2 or T3 should be useable with that.

As for the question at hand, an adapter is always useful if you're mixing equipment. S.I. does offer 808 Nanos, which look and operate the same as the 510 versions. I can't speak to the quality between different vendors, but they're out there.

About the only clearos/tanks not offered in 808 threading that I'm aware of are Vivi Novas and RBA's. Some people have gotten T2's to work on an X2, and S.I. now offers the T3 as well for the X2. Though I don't use 510's, so I can only speak to what I've seen.

The 808 and vGo threaded clearos I'm aware of include CE2's, CE3's, CE4(+)'s, Nanos, M3's, T3's, T4's and Carto-Tanks.

I should mention that you need to make sure you have the correct adapter before you purchase. Since the Volts are "sealed" batteries, they will only work with a slotted adapter. If you look on the bottom of your S.I. cartomizers, they have a groove slotted into the center post. Any adapter your order must have a similar groove slotted onto the top of the center post or else they will not fire on your auto batteries at all. An unslotted adapter will work on the manuals though, since they do not require airflow to fire the atomizer.

Every adapter I've ordered from MadVapes is properly slotted and should work just fine for the Volt automatics. They've worked fine on my Echos, but I did read of one person who couldn't get an atty to fire on their Volt with a MadVapes adapter.
