Does anyone make short, fat VV batteries?

[bazmonkey]

I'm interested in a short little stout battery for pocket-friendliness, but I need around 1,000 mAh to last as long as I'd like to. And I need VV because I use all sorts of resistances.

I've seen short skinny 450mAh eGos, and long fat 1,300mAh eGo monsters. If they would just make the short one as fat as the long one it would be perfect.

I'm looking at my 1,000mAh twist and I wish I could just fold it in half and squish it all together like a block of clay.

I'd like to steer clear of boxy-shapes batteries in this case (I like 'em in other situations) because the whole idea is something the size of a roll of quarters with a vivi on top would fit right next to my phone in my pocket.

Does such an object exist for less than, oh, $50?

Sure but not in pocket friendly exactly. The Vamo VW can use a short battery you just remove the extension tube. I believe they go for $54:00 at Discount Vapors. Can use an IMR 18650 or 18350 battery. The 18350 is a 800 mah battery and the 18650 is over 2000 and up mah. It will operate in VV or VW mode.

But, aren't the Vamos (in short mode) and Provari minis, etc...about the same length as a Spinner 1300?

Have you thought of a box mod?

Sorry, I missed the part about you not wanting anything "boxy."

I've never seen a 1300mAh Spinner in person, but I can't imagine how it could be smaller than a mini.

This is a 1000mAh Twist, a mini and a 650mAh standard eGo

Is that a Provari mini?

 

[The Ocelot]

Is that a Provari mini?

Yes. It's littler than people think.

ETA: That one is with the standard cap, which takes an 18350 battery. With the extension cap it will take an 18490.

Vamos are big! sigelei Zmax is introducing a true mini that will be 1/2" taller than the ProVari mini--which is the shortest in the lineup (in its 18350 configuration--3.48").

It is, the vamo in 18350 mode will be slightly longer that the provari mini.

The mini is shorter than my 900 mAh Spinner--but fatter. Provari is surprisingly small.

 

[HazMatt]

Yes. It's littler than people think.

Next question:
Is there another APV shorter than the mini?
An APV that uses replaceable batteries, reads ohms, etc (full function)?

I can't think of a smaller tube mod.

Great... now I have to buy a Provari mini. Looks like the total I have spent ($420 in three weeks) is going to jump another couple hundred dollars :bangs head on wall:

There may be a mechanical mod or a box mod that's smaller than ProVari, but not a tube mod. believe me, I searched everywhere.

Well, you could, I guess, get a 350 tube from the eGo T2 mod and fit an eVic head on it--I haven't measured that combination.

There are little box mods, but I've only seen pictures. Like a T-Max or this one: Little Sister Variable Vari-Cool - Ken's Boxmods

No, you don't. The differences are are minimal--1/2" at the most. You may want to get a ProVari though. But that's a different matter. And the mini will not be anywhere near your desired 1300 mAh capacity--half of that, actually.

You don't want a Lil Sister. Just sayin'.

 

[The Ocelot]

You can use a tube like this to make an eVic take an 18350, but I don't know how long the device would end up being: Joyetech EgO-T2 18350 Battery Tube

I'd never seen one before, I know nothing about them. Have you seen a "Sneaky Pete?"
