I still kinda want a Cig a Like?

Hello all,

I have been vaping for 2 years now and currently using a subtank and a dna 40. I absolutely love them! Though for some reason lately I really want a cig-a-like or some sort of automatic battery with a cartomizer (refillable blank 510 cartos). I think it would just be nice to vape hands free here and there. I would like something that can easially be held in the mouth and fires when you draw (no blu or vuse crap). Does anyone have any suggestions for the best kit that comes with blank cartos or a kit where blank cartos are readily available?.

Thanks!

Ya know, the options are becoming fewer and fewer - even Joyetech is eliminating basic 510 cigalikes from their product line. If this is going to be an occasional use thing only you may want to take a look at their eRoll though. It's that or heading for 808 threaded stuff (with more expensive cartos) or the proprietary rebranded junk that won't tell you what threading they are using. But as far as "easily held in the mouth" goes - that's entirely up to you to decide. I never found the smallest 510 battery light enough to hold in my mouth like a cigarette.

I have several automatic cigalikes from smokelessimage and vapor4life, I use em to get through the work day. Honestly, the ones I got from smokelessimage have been much higher quality, only downside is there's a pretty short cutoff time, something like 5 seconds. I recommend using higher nic juice with them if you're used to high power setups. 3mg hits the spot when I'm dripping at 30-50 watts or sub ohming with a mech, but with the cigalikes I go more for about 6mg+.

Also, both the companies I mentioned will provide cartos but I can almost guarantee you'll get sick of the taste and the hassle of refilling them, best thing I've found is the kanger T4S, not the regular T4, but the T4-S model (night and day difference between those two). None of these companies offer this clearomizer for your 808 auto but you can find them on other websites. They are super easy to fill with needle tipped bottles, no guesswork or flooding like with a cartomizer, you can see exactly how much juice you have left and they taste awesome, and they are flush with the 808 battery and have a threaded drip tip. I ordered 10 of them a couple months ago and I'm still on the first 2, rinsed em out and let em dry recently and it's like they're brand new, vape em hard 5 days a week too.

I leave my auto in my mouth all the time while I'm working and have no trouble doing this with the XL size 808 batteries, only issue is the juice tastes so good it makes my mouth water and I end up drooling on myself sometimes LOL. Anyways I'd really recommend the volts for batteries, cutoff time kinda sucks sometimes but way more durable and consistent draw in my experience, V4L autos kept firing after I was done drawing and even downright auto firing on me and so did every replacement they sent me, only got 1 good one out of the bunch and I still use it, but yeah, going back I would have just stuck with the smokelessimage model, black with green led :)

I started out with the Premium V2 ecig and thought it was great although it did not take long to realize I needed more battery life. I am sure there are lots of things out there and I wish you well. I think it is wonderful there are so many choices and something for everyone that wants to quit smoking or remain smoke free.
