i think it is possible to make a cig sized one, but people aren't innovating or using other technologies that would work. it's all about the little heater coil that everyone uses. there are just so many other options.
cost has to come into it rat.. i think the pizo technolgy also draws too much power.. which hits the small battery..
the small cig sized factor gets in the way.. then there is the small cart.. this is all connected with the desire to look like a real cigarette..
in the future given new or improved battery technology perhaps.. but it really is battery power thats holding many things back.. from a battery point of view small and good dosnt fit..
a fully disposable cigarette sized e cig could work.. but it would boost the cost a little too much for me.. but yes a use once then thro away device could be produced ten in packet at a reasonable cost using current technology..
not good from an environmental point of view thow.. think of all the waste..
take the loong totem atomizer.. fit a none rechargeable battery.. put ten in a packet and its already there.. the fully disposable e cig..
just a small copy of the 45 dollar ruyan cigar in essence..
there is some irony here.. real cigarettes were just small cheap copies of real cigars.. he he
