Looking for my first changeable battery PV

[Garemlin]

Think I am ready to take the step into the convenience of a PV with changable battery. Don't want to break the bank but also want something with decent quality. What I am looking for....

-Non VV: I have found with the juices I use having VV makes no difference at all. I rarely crank it above 3.88v
-Able to use ego threaded deliver devices. Especially the SI T3 and Triton tank system. Have too much monney invested in my currently delivery devices so don't want to start from scratch
-Ability to hold high capacity batteries
-Durability, quality and decent warranty

Anything fit the bill or am I destine to have to switch to the more common 510 threading and retire my current hardware. If that is the case what would be suggestions. again don't want junk or sketchy quality or reputation.

Thanks

There are dozens of quality tube mods on the market. You might decide what your budget is and I'll bet lots of people will be able to point you in the direction of something that fits all of your criteria.

The reason I'm replying is just to let you know that a simple and inexpensive 510 to ego adapter will allow you to use any native 510 with ego-specific cartos and attys.

That opens up your options to pretty much any mechanical mod with 510 threads.

I recommend browsing the REO threads. Unbeatable quality, customer service, community, and the vape with an RM2 is amazing. I may be biased, but just recommending the threads.

I, too, am very likely to recommend REO under most circumstances (happily vaping my VV Woodville right this moment, in fact). It doesn't fit the listed criteria in this case, though. The OP is looking for a mechanical mod that will run his S1 T3 and Triton and he mentioned current investment in those.

Does such an animal not exist??? I could live with ego/808 threading. I have many 808 T4 clearos that I would still like to use. If I only had to retire my SI mini T3's it would not be that bad. I will just get regular ego T2's or T3's or maybe some other ego clearos. Just don't want to have to switch to 510. But I guess if I have to I would.

If you want to stick with clearos there are better choices than a REO. Maybe look into a magneto or k100, something not too expensive to get your feet wet.

Yeah I am hooked on the ease of use of clearos and have no intention on going with any kind of tank set-up.
I'll check out those two.

Keep the suggestions coming. And just for the heck of it make some suggestions on 510's as well so I get an idea of what all is out there. But my first choice is still an ego/808.

I'm getting the feeling that you don't know that ego is 510 + the stabilizing threads. The only thing that makes "ego threading" different than 510 is the big threads on the outside that have nothing to do with the electrical connection.

The inside threads on an ego are 510. The outside threads are just there to make ego-specific attys and cartos physically stable on the device. The adapter I linked to above can be put on any device with 510 threading to make it have the outside threads and provide the necessary rise for the skirts on those attys and cartos.

Yes I knew that ego are 510 inner. But there are egos that have 808 inner threading besides the ones offered by SI and Halo. That is why I was hoping maybe there was a mod with the same type of threading.

Gotcha. Sorry about that. This thread might be helpful.

There are a few other threads about this as well. I think it comes down to using more than one adapter. That's not something I would do personally.

NP. You were just trying to help and give info that you thought I might not have known. But there may be someone who reads this thread that wasn't aware of it. I'll check that thread out.

The difference of threading on your hardware and any mod you may get is not an issue. There are tons of thread adaptors out there and are at most 3 bucks.

I would say get a VV set it to 3.8 and forget about it. I have a few reasons for saying this. First you don't know what you might like to try next as for a tanks/clearos go and if you find that the vapor is weak on your new unit you can up the volts a get a better vape. The Second thing is most VV have and ohm's meter built into them. I have found this very useful when trying to troubleshoot my tanks when they give me problems. All that being said I would recommend the Vamo or the innokin SVD both are VV and do fit the "ego" type tanks.

If your hard set no the no vv thing then your looking at mechanical mods. All of the ones i have seen are strictly 510 threads.

I misunderstood that too. What he has is 808D1 ego. That's an 808d1 that also has the outside ego threads. So, the tanks etc he's invested in are 808D1 ego's and not 510 egos. As far as I can tell there is no single adapter that goes from 510 to 808D1 ego. A combination of adapters could be used, but that just adds more points of possible failure/short.

The only mechanical mod I can think of that might be appropriate is a megalodon with 808 threads (not sure that's even made any more) or perhaps if VV were to be considered, the BuzzPro probably has a high enough 808 connector for the ego skirts to clear. The draw might be effected... It might be worth asking in the notcigs sub forum (suppliers forums section near the bottom of the main ecf page) if anyone uses those tank/clearo systems with their 808d1 BuzzPro.

I bought a Vamo V3 for my buddy from Fasttech, it came in a nice packaged deal, two batts, a charger, and the mod for under $50... I would recommend that since you want to keep your ego threaded tanks...

Ok so hypothetically speaking if I did decided to say the heck with it and go with a 510 what would be my best option??? I like the fact that the ProVape has a lifetime warranty and is made in the USA. Would that be a good choice??? Or are there better choices???

Also reading through some threads I have seen where some people don't get any better battery life out of bigger battery mods than you do with a 900mAh or 1300mAh. Any truth to that??? My biggest reason for wanting to go with something like this is longer battery life and not having to carry multiple batteries. Would like to be able to take one PV and a few spare replacement batteries for back up.

 

[NumberOneBatfan]

Maybe look into the itaste mvp v2, it's a pretty ridiculous battery on it, i'm pretty sure it has cone threading but 510.

Big pass on that. LOL

Watt hours is watt hours, I think you want to consider anything that can accept an 18650 size battery or bigger...

I have a Provari full size with an 18650 extension cap, and also an eVic. The Provape has the AW 2000mAH battery and my eVic full size has the 2600mAH. After a full day of vape, I still have about 70% capacity left in my eVic. My Provari stays home most of the time, and jt gets good vape time also...

If at the end of the day, you have access to a charger, a 2000mAH Provari will last you, assumption is you're not pulling mad wattage using an RBA but more conservative clearos...

I would highly recommend an eVic if you arr concerned about knowing how much capacity left because it shows you right on the screen...

The Provari has that function too, but it checks the battery voltage so you'd have to translate that in your head as to how much is left...

The Vamo V3 package from Fasttech comes with two 3000mAH Panasonic batteries, so this setup will last just as long, if not longer, than my eVic...

As for the Innokin SVD and Smoktech Zmax stuff, I don't have any experience with those...

I mostly use my eVic with a shorty tube, 18350 sized battery, carry an extra battery, and it gets me through a full tank of juice in my Protank (2.5mL)... So theoretically, you only need about 1400mAH for every 2.5 to 3.0 mL of juice in my experience...
