Information Overload! Opinions for the 808

[hasher4life]

All of my 808 manuals are sealed. The autos are not as they need the airflow to active the switch.

The VGO i just got for my girl uses KR808 cartomizers but it has 650mah battery that lasts all day. Check out this review as it has some good pics.

I don't know where my original reply to you went, but thanks for yet another one to add to my list!

Thanks

hasher - re battery life, PCC's can be a big help. It's a case with a battery in it. You charge the case overnight and charge your batteries too (I do them separate from the PCC), then during the day you can be using one battery and charging the other in your pocket. I mainly use the PCC to charge when not at work or at home, but I use it every day to carry some gear. many super-mini PCCs can charge 1 battery at a time while carrying one other battery and some carts or cartos. Mini+ PCCs often just fit the one battery they are charging and 2-3 carts or cartos. Some brands have PCCs but not all do.

I think the only way you can get 8-hour to all day battery life out of one battery for a heavy vaper is by going to a larger-than-mini unit like the fat-battery Riva or Ego or to other shapes that don't look like a cigarette.

I know V4L has a PCC for (I think) standard and shorty batteries (for KR8 which is their vapor king) but I don't know if it has one for XL batteries. I think it can charge an XL battery if the PCC case is left open.

I think many PCCs can do about 4 recharges.

BTW - if you haven't looked at them, check out in the New Member sticky threads - the Library thread for the multipart guide especially starting at part 4+ where some popular models start to be shown. And the newbie videos thread where you can see some of those models in use. There are also a ton of review/comparison videos of those models on Youtube. Hard to tell how big the demonstrator is but it will give you an idea of what they look like in use.

I have read the wonderful 6 part series by DonDaBommVapor and watched the great videos by MistressNomad, she got me thinking on the KR8, and many other posts, hence the information overload!

Once again thanks for your valuable input!

I don't own a KR-808 but they are very popular. You don't mention if you're getting automatic or manual batteries. I read a post yesterday or the day before by someone that had two batteries die because of leaking juice. This can be a problem for any auto battery, regardless of model. I've also read posts stating that some manual KR-808 batteries are not sealed. If you choose autos you need to be careful not to overfill your cartos. If you're planning on getting manual batteries, you might ask the vendor if they are sealed before you place your order. That way you won't have to worry about it. As I said, I'm only restating what I've read. Actual KR-808 owners, please correct me it I'm wrong. In any event good luck and have fun with your new PV.

Good advice from Icoth. But I will go further and state: don't get auto batteries. There is a reason the vast majority on this forum only use manual batteries. The realiabilty of auto bats is poor. Then you have to learn how to do the "double puff" method of vaping just to get the battery to heat up. Then there is the automatic cut-off of the battery. Just a big hassle in comparison to just pushing a small button and having complete control with manual batteries.
