So I got the brilliant idea of using the new batteries in one of my other MOD's that takes 20700 batteries. And they fit fine in the other MOD. So I'm going to contact Vaporesso and see what they say. And for the record they are the IJOY 20700 3000mAh 3.7V 40A batteries.
Another option if you need a battery to “grow” a few mm’s you can always double/triple up on the battery wraps. Just my :2c:

So I contacted Vaporesso Tech Support about the 20700 battery not fitting properly. After several emails back and forth with me sending a video, pics, and my receipt....The final reply was since I can still use the 18650 battery, to "reduce my loss", Vaporesso is giving me an 8% discount on a purchase through....their store.

I'm about to pull the trigger on the GeekVape Aegis 100W mod. I'll probably just buy a couple of 26650's for rotation and forget about the 18650 rubber sleeve adapter.

It's crazy with the deals E.Fun is offering on the Aegis. $29.95 for one or buy 6 for $69.99. for a Shipping with E-Packet was $6.80 + the $29.99 sale price. Shipping time to me was estimated at 20 days (slow boat from China).

There is a cap for separate purchase to use 2x00 batteries.

Not 6 Aegis mods. one mod and 5 other geekvape items. A coil kit etc. Out of stock anyway

I should have looked closer. That might have come in handy, but I'll order some 26650s from lMRBatteries. One of the things I liked about the 100W was that its native fit was 26650. More vape time! :)

Letitia, Now that I'm looking at batteries, 20700/21700 begins to sound like a better deal. More choices and lots of Mooch listings. Not so much for 26650. I have loads of 18650 and haven't thought about larger cells.

On closer look, GeekVape includes all adapters needed. I'll use the 18650 tube and take my time shopping for other cells. I have 7 to 20 days ship time according to the confirmation from E.Fun.

I like that more mods are coming out with versatile battery options. I've been cruising single battery devices that accepts various battery sizes. Know that I can get a full day from a single 21700 battery.

I personally would recommend the Oceanus kit. Comes with 2 20700 batteries that last a decent amount of time and an additional rba deck for the tank if you want to venture away from subohm coils and into rebuildables. Even has to little silicon sleeves for the batteries with a hook on it.
Isn't that the mod that has a gap if you use a different atty with it?

Unfortunately, yes. However I have found if you have an atomizer with an adjustable 510 pin then this can be combated for the most part.
Liked the looks but had to give it a pass. There are more coming out every week and I'm in no hurry.

i have the geek vape aegis. I like it. lasts pretty long time. I wouldn't say it was pocket friendly. but it's durable and has a quality feel. it takes a 26650

for pocket friendly, i have had a swag for months now. I use it alot. It goes in my front and back pockets with no issue. a single battery mod.

i lent out my ijoy genie and am sad i did. I'm about to buy another one. The genie was the best price coming with two batteries. fits in cup holders. it doesn't tip over easy, and its made nice. I had no issues with mine. Enough so that Im buying another one. a mod with a set of batteries for $45 is a great deal.

I thought of trying a newer mod, but i know i like the genie. so i'm going to go ahead and get another.

I don't like Jac. I've thrown two away. problems with the magnets on the doors. they fall off. so the door won't latch. the magnets are so small to handle, and i on both mods ended up with the magnets put in upside down and that caused resistance with the battery door and i just tossed it.
Not to mention the mod often gives a ohms too high warning. I prefer .5 ohm coils. the jac did not. I loved it when it worked properly and stayed together. but i'd vote for an aegis instead.

I don't recommend the revenger either. fire button issues. quality control issues maybe?
I originally liked it so much i talked my dad into buying one... he ended up with the same fire button issue i have. after just a few weeks. It became such a nuisance i tossed that mod too.

this is just my experience that i'm willing to share. I hope you find something you love.
I feel confident in recommending the aegis, the genie and the swag.
