Have an Aegis Mini w/Big Baby (0.25R M2 Coil) for my "Outside Chores Shirt-Pocket" Rig and a Aegis "OG" (in Gunmetal-Camo of course

) w/same Tank/Coil combo for Hunting and All-Day Outside Chore Rig.
Dig them both and wish I'd gotten an OG Aegis a long time ago.
I too was a HUGE "Hater" of Internal Batt Mods in general but,,,, needed a rugged smaller Outside Mod/Rig for short to 3+ hr or so Outside Duty and it easily checked all the other boxes to warrant disregarding the "Built-In Boo-Boo" Con. Pulled the trigger and damned glad I did.
So far it does the job quite well, perfect size and ergonomics, performs to expectation, and lasts more than acceptably long warheaded with the BB and 0.25 M2 Coil set at 32W. As stated already, Charge-Up time is relatively quick. Real test will come in the Spring to see if full-charge will last the Full-Meal-Deal on the Yard (2.25 acres/2 hrs Riding Mow & @40 mins of push-mowing & 25 mins of Weed-Eating & 10 mins Blower).
IF the little devil can do that considering I hit it fairly often during said work then,,,, Winner

Tall order and daunting Mission-Statement I know. Too tall??? We shall see and if by chance it can't quite make the last 5-10 mins,,, it will still have earned its keep and will retain its Slot in the Ft. Vape Armory.
Of course the orig. Aegis (w/sngl 26650 Batt) speaks for itself and only negative is; wish they'd been around in the 80's (and I'd been a Vaper instead of a "Camel-Commando"

). An Aegis Moded Rig would have been classified "Essential Gear" right alongside a Compass, a Gerber Mark-II, an M-16, my personal Colt Commander 1911, and large (neatly stacked and tightly folded) cache of Charmin
