most popular battery models and sizes

[davehan88]

Hi everyone,
My name is Dave and I just started my e-cigarette journey. I was wondering what the MOST popular models and sizes were (length x width). It seems like the "501", "808" and "901" are the most popular. Are there any other types and any sources of information regarding them that I can come across?

I'm trying to do a project to compare voltages against sizes and do some functional analysis on it.

Thank you so much

There is also the 801/BE112 which was one of the first attys (if not the first). And the infamous 4081. Many of us still use the 801 or BE112 version because it is the largest you can get and really vapes nice on a 5 volt or VV PV.

Good luck on your project.

What's seems to be becoming the most popular around here is the Joye eGo. It comes with 650 mAh batteries, and the battery is about the size of a 40 ring cigar.

These days the larger battery models like the eGo, Riva, Leo etc. are probably more popular among users on forums like this. Details of some of them here - Custom Battery e-Cig Mods | e-Cigarette Mods Database

A sleeper small model is the RN4081

to be honest, i've only given one any real shot, but i love my 510. it's what the friend that got me started vaping had. there's so much out there and after a ton of research, i agreed with most of what i read that it is the most "beginner friendly" model.

Most popular these days I think are the following and their fat-battery versions [in brackets]

510 [Ego, Riva 510 and others]
KR808D-1 [Elegant Easy]
and somewhat less popular w/ an airier hit
DSE901 [Riva 901]

Their batteries are all about the same size but when you look up specs sometimes the diameters listed vary
KR8 is a 2-piece unit so it's standard battery is actually longer than the standard battery of the other two, yet assembled their standard forms are all about the same length (because part of the length of 510 and 901 are their long attys)

KR8 and 901 batteries happen to have same threads, 510 is different. However KR8 and 901 batteries are not identical for airflow access - you can out a 901 atty right on a KR8 battery. You cannot use a KR8 carto right on a 901 battery - it requires an adapter with air notches.

510 and 901 can use the same carts (I think) but their attys are different

So they are different products, but lengthwise and mah-wise they equate this way

Shorty KR8 battery = 510 standard battery = 901 standard battery = 180mah
Standard KR8 battery = 510 xl battery = 901 xl battery = 280mah
KR8 xl battery = 380mah

They are all slightly thicker than a cigarette (maybe 1mm thicker?)

As for the fat battery models (battery lasts 6-8 hours+?) I don't have one. But the batteries are fatter and a tapered cowl goes on from the atty or carto to the battery.

Here is a photo of an Ego next to its skinny version 510
