Looking for a new mod (Bottom feeder/Passthrough)

[DJApoc]

Ok, so let me tell you about what I have, versus what I need.

I've been using an Ego for a while now (a 1000mAh Ego XL, and a 650mAh Ego passthrough), and I feel it's time to upgrade. I've been using a combination of Boge 510 LR Cartos, Joye 510 attys, Ego-T tanks, and CE2 clearos (issues abound with the clearos and the Ego-T tank).

Ok, so here's what I want, and I need suggestions, I want to order something today, hopefully.

1. Box mod (I just think I would like the form factor better, and I think the things I want would have to be in a box anyway)

2. Bottom feeder: I love dripping, but hate how tedious it is. This needs to work with my Joye 510 attys

3. Comes with all necessary components (batteries, charger): I hate having to tack more on to the price to get what I need to make it work.

4. Passthrough capability: I've come to really appreciate this. Not 100% mandatory, but very desirable.

5. Can go all day on one charge. I chain vape a lot, this is important, even with the passthrough, since I won't always be near a power source (most of the time I am, though)

6. Can't be huge. It needs to fit in my left pocket with my iPhone. My right pocket is reserved for my firearm. (I concealed carry at all times). About the size of a pack of cigarettes is more than acceptable.

7. No obscene pricing. (Let's keep it under $150, unless it it just mindblowingly awesome)


I know about mods like the Reo Grande, and I am interested, but they never seem to be in stock. The ProVari looks awesome, but I don't want to spend that much, plus I don't think it would be a good match with all my LR stuff, I don't want to need new attys and cartos too. (I have a LOT of 1.5 ohm atomizers, 20+, it would be a waste)

Feel free to throw up any suggestions, personal experience is preferred. I'm just getting tired of clicking through hundreds of reviews, so I thought I would just ask!

Disregard this.

It took mods too long to approve it for some reason, I got my hands on a Reo Mini.

Loving it!

Actually, it was the Reo Mini I was going to suggest. The Boge Revolution V2.1 has similar capability with higher mAh, larger juice bottle, and lower price, but is not nearly as good quality.

If you had not expressed preference for box shape and bottom-feeding, the large cartomizer-surrounding tanks (e.g., MAP, Liquinator, J-Tank, and VPX Cartomator) would have been worth exploring. They strike me as the cost-effective juice-feeding solution for those of us who prefer the tubular shape.

Thanks for the reply.

I originally was uninterested in the Reo simply because it lacked the passthrough functionality and built in charger, combined with the fact I could never find any in stock on the web site.

As luck would have it, Rob put some up on the site for sale that night. I was on the fence about it all day, but after a few page refreshes and seeing how fast they were disappearing, knowing how easy it would be to sell if I ended up not liking it, I made the impulse purchase. So far, so good, I just started trying out my Boge 510 LR cartos on it about an hour ago, and I'm definitely liking it since I am the guy who tops off his carto every few minutes (I am a chain vaper) but it works awesome with my Joye 510 LR attys too. I think I've already got the art of the blind squonk down!

My only gripe is the battery life with the AW IMR 14500 batteries when using the Joye 510 1.5ohm atty. I start vaping at 8am and the first battery is done by 10am. So glad I got 4 of them, but come on...

Is there a higher capacity battery that will work in the mini? I know everyone says to use the 600mAh AW IMR 14500, but surely there must be a better (if more expensive) option that's at least 900mAh or more. 1200mAh or more I KNOW would last me all day.

Also I looked into the Boge Revolution, and considered it for a moment, but found too many complaints of people not receiving it with the correct battery, and of it smashing to bits if they drop it even once. I'm clumsy and drop my Ego all the time, so I knew that would be a big deal.

Non-IMR batteries will have higher claimed mAh (900), but the effective mAh is about the same.

Moderate mAh (I wouldn't call it low) is the price you pay for small size. Just like the tubular mods and fat batts.

For me, a 2ml capacity Elite 808 cartomizer on its 380 mAh battery is a wondrous thing. [I recently reviewed the Elite 808.] Two assembled Elites (4ml and 760 mAh) get me through the day and I just recharge and refill in the evening and night. [Actually, I just bring one with me, along with a couple of my other favorite carto/battery combos and some e-liquid.]
