Cigarette style

[milo hobo]

I have been vaping for a long time now, about 10 months and my wife has continued to smoke cigarettes. I am currently using a puresmoker prodigy at 6 volts and am loving it. Before this I was using a joye ego. I have never tried a cigarette style pv. My wife has been an opponent of the idea of vaping, regardless of the facts, however, she is starting to come around. She wanted to find a cigarette style PV and try that despite my warnings that they don't generally satisfy.

So I come to you guys, and ask that you do the impossible. Could you find me a cigarette style, as in small and looks like a cigarette, pv that is cost effective and generally hastle free? Thank you for your time.

I would recommend the Volt or the Halo G6, both are 808 and basically the same PV. Pricing is a little better on the Volt Kit and you get to customize the kit more so I personally lean in that direction, both are good choice though.

I've been vaping for well over a year and have moved to mods but still use my Volt on the go sometimes, actually not a bid little pv.

The super mini from totally wicked looks like a cigarette and the kit is relatively cheap. You may also want to look into a disposable one for her just in case she doesn't like it, that way you aren't wasting a bunch of money on a kit that is going to be useless to you.

They satisfy more people than you may think. Check out the model specific KR808D-1 forum and the Official Smokeless Image thread as well as the Bloog threads. I started using the Volt a while back and put my Egos, Rivas and box mods to bed and so did a lot of other people.

Actually, I think the fear of wasting money will encourage her to give it a real chance. What I am hoping is to make the experience as hastle free as possible: no leaking, no cheap parts, as little fiddling as possible.

Thank you for the suggestions so far, I will start looking into these models.

I quit smoking using the Vapor 4 Life Vapor Kings. They are cig sized...and come in several different lengths. They also have a good selection of e juice and one of the biggest forums on the ECF. If she smokes menthol, their WOW peppermint juice is great. They also have some tobaccos that get good reviews from their forum followers. And they run phenomenal sales almost daily.

Ive been vaping for about two years , own and use several different mods but went back to the kr808's for my primary pv on the go .I love my big battery tube mods with dc tanks at home but honestly just too cumbersome to lug around all day . the volt cartomizers are great and very satisfying even compared to the great hardware i have at home .

I also used the Vapor 4 Life Vapor King and am really enjoying it. I'm new to whole experience, and this board has been great, which is how I decided on that model. The batteries don't last a really long time, but my kit came with a passthrough which has been great.

I recommend a Halo G6, the longer sized batts. It is the lightest weight I have used, feels like a real cig, easy draw and very warm vape. I also have a mod but the G6 vape is actually warmer to vape and it is quiet to use. I still use a G6 daily and they really helped me quit. bnrk

For its size, the volt, halo g6 or bloog are the most powerful and robust ecigs on the market until someone invents something better that's that compact.

The kr808D-1 units mentioned are all the same inside, just different branding. They are all 3.7v regulated, compared to the 510 which is 3.2v and even the ego at 3.2v you're getting a true 3.7v device crammed into a superking sized pv. Not bad at all.

If you want an automatic they're very robust automatics. I've been using mine for... must be close to 8 months now, still have my original two automatic batteries that get used almost every day and they are just as good as the day I got them. Haven't broken, don't go off to sound, still activates when I draw through it, still holds a decent charge and doesn't misfire or go off when it's not meant to.

They also come in manual if you don't want an automatic.

You can get 220 mAh or 320mAh from the batteries as opposed to 190 mAh to 280mAh on the standard 510 and larger 510, and likely a worse mAh on true superminis.

The main reason I suppose most people say don't get a cig sized ecig is because of the charge they hold because they're smaller. I mean, the ego, has to be the most reccommended starter battery ever. But it's 3.2v and the kr808D-1's are 3.7v. It'll perform a little stronger than an ego. The only downside is 650mAh on the ego vs 320mAh on the volt. If charge is the only problem, invest in a PCC and take it with you. You'll get more "puff" time than an ego with two volt batteries and a PCC.

There pretty much is nothing else to get for cig sized PVs. When the new kr808D-1's came along, they topped every other cig sized pv out there and are still the top right now. Anything else is lower mAh, lower voltage, bad cartomisers/atomisers with barely any filling space and so many other things that just don't make a complete PV.

You don't have to take my word for it, but if someone said I had to use cig sized ecigs for the rest of my life or I can't vape, today, I'd be using my volt while I'm waiting on someone to invent something better.

I just ordered a Volt from Smokeless Image. I can't wait! I never used a PCC either.

So excitee!

55 bucks with a coupon code!

I was able to quit using the Halo G6, and although most would not recommend this - I use the automatic short batteries. Battery life is mitigated by using a PCC.

Edit: I still have a manual battery to test out refilled cartos - I have a tendency to overfill...

I'll agree with what most people already said. I think the 808 style works pretty well as far as the stick style e-cigs go. I prefer them to regular Joye 510s myself. (the e-cig not the generic thread pattern)

I have been vaping for a long time now, about 10 months and my wife has continued to smoke cigarettes. I am currently using a puresmoker prodigy at 6 volts and am loving it. Before this I was using a joye ego. I have never tried a cigarette style pv. My wife has been an opponent of the idea of vaping, regardless of the facts, however, she is starting to come around.

If you are looking to get a cig style PV you might as well enter this VOLT contest http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/e-cigarette-suppliers-forum/240036-contest-thanksgiving-smoklessimage-com.html Figured I would spread the love for all of you who did not know about it

I never put my eGo-t down personally but from all the good reviews on youtube I would certainly try the VOLT if given the chance.

What kind of connection does the volt use? 510, 808, 901, 306? I am wondering because I am not positive that cartomizers are the way to go.

The volt is a kr808D-1 pv so anything that would go on a 808 connection.

This is a standard RN4081.
TW appears to be discontinuing this line, just last week they had thier 4081 batteries on closeout, they sold out before I could order some.
There are several other places to get 4081 parts though.
IMO, the Volt/bloog/G6 220 mAh battery is better then the 4081 180 mAh

<--- chimes in with the Volt vote.
I have a Volt kit, and I absolutely love it. The batteries never peter out to wispy-ness as they are being used up. Nope. They retain their 3.7v of pure bliss the entire vaping time. (minus the last 1 or 2 puffs). They are regulated 3.7v.

plus, as a bonus, the colors are wild fun and the LED are jewel rich bright. (even the purple!).

I have a shorty (65mm) for hands free playing Xbox and a regular length (75mm) for holding like a real cig times. (morning coffee especially). I also use the PT (manual) when at the computer. I love every one of them. I now see why SteelJan does cartwheels.

 

[mylose64]

anyone try the sealed auto batts?

Mine are the Sealed Automatics and so far they're great!
My PT is the only manual
