Just to start, I love my eRoll. Only complaint is that when I'm home I would like something with a bigger tank capacity.

So, I was thinking something like a G6 size battery, with a CE3 Phoenix tank. I still want a smallish, cigarettish size, but I don't want cartomizers. Again, I live the eRoll.

I also prefer automatic vs. manual batteries.

So what would you recommend? What's a nice but small battery? Where's the best place to buy a CE3 tank?

Would love your input... Share photos too if ya have...

On the right there is a vision nano tank on a 510 battery. I mainly use that setup when I'm working with my hands. Auto is nice.
I also use it on an ego 450mah battery for longer use or backup for when my 510's are done.

I like it. Disposable but a decent vape.

How long do the 510 batteries last? I'd mainly be looking to use this when I'm home in the evening.
What do you mean by disposable? I mean, I know what disposable means, but they aren't really disposable, so I'm a bit confused... LOL


Sounds like a G6 battery and a G6 Mini Tank would be a good choice for you. CE3s aren't real pretty, and you have to fill them with a syinge.

They syringe doesn't bother me too much as long as they perform okay. I looked at the G6 and tank, but the G6 seemed to get mixed reviews, especially from at least one guy who likes the eRoll. I get such a good vape from the eRoll, I don't want to take a step backwards just to get bigger capacity. Does the G6 still have a 5-second cut-off?

Disposable as in head can't be replaced. I am on my second one, occasional use for 2-3 weeks before first one died. Holds about 1ml juice. Not disposable as in use once and toss in trash, apologies for confusion.

510 batteries come in 220 or 340 mah for auto and 150 or 280 in manual. I'm sure there are others too. So theoretically 1-3 hours by conventional wisdom, your results may vary. Think they are 3.3 volts, but someone or other makes them in 3.7 volts too. 510 battery - 220mah lasts me about one hour, I am a fairly heavy, sometimes chain vaper.

According to google the eroll is 90mah... So 510 has more battery life I suppose. I never used an eroll.

Ego mini is a shorter battery, is 3.7 volts, and charges twice as fast as a 510.
This is nano on 650mah, so mini would be about an inch shorter than this:

Thanks for all the info. I've seen the 650 at my local shop, so have an idea of size. I was looking at some reviews of the Nano Clearomizer tonight and wondering how it would pair with the Volt batteries... which I'm assuming (am I right?) they are the same as the 510 batteries. Looks like a good pairing that I may like a lot.

eRoll has a short battery life, but the PCC is what makes it not really matter. The tanks are so small though, which is really the biggest annoyance.

Nope. Volt is 808 thread. 510 is 510 threaded. Not compatible (not directly anyway). Unless volt has something new that is 510 threaded.

Edit:volt sells a mini clearomizer that works with volt batteries. No idea on quality etc, never had one.
Just a warning:808 is an old standard that few use any more. Kinda beta vs VHS or blu-Ray vs hdd DVD, or coke vs Pepsi... 510 won ( so did coke hahahahaha....anyway).
I suppose volt is fine though if that is what you will stay with.

Edit2: Google "510-t pcc" if you want that option.

I actually decided to try two different setups. Between me and my husband and some other family members who want to give vaping a shot, I figure they won't go to waste anyway.

I bought a Mig Cig setup, two 110mm auto batteries and tank.

I also went with something very similar to your photo... two Ego 400 mah batteries and a few nano vision tanks. I love the way your photo looks! I can always get the 650 batteries locally too and the 400s were so cheap.

I was watching YouTube videos yesterday and I can see how this hobby can get expensive, fast. :D

If you want to be free of constant battery charging, go with an 18650 mod. One battery can last from morning until bedtime. Add an Aspire Nautilus Mini with BVC heads and you will have a good vape all day long.

Small is convenient and the E-roll looks like a good vape from Phil Busardo's reviews. It's still a small ecig that requires a pocket charging case to maintain vapability all day long. That, and frequent refills due to its small juice capacity. I go through 4-5ml of juice a day.
