Another option in the mini catagory..........I have had no trouble with the Volt I just got. It is small and looks like a cig, but it has been trouble free. I also put the cartomizer on my thermo tube with a 3.7 via an adapter, and the battery lasts 2 days. Cartos are easy to fill/refill and give good flavor and warm vapor for a regular resistance and 3.7. I was using mods all the time, and was surprised to find this one becoming my all day unit.

    Knowing what you already have in your arsenal would have helped.

    The aforementioned Riva 510 and Echo are good suggestions. I kind of like having a drip set up, which the Echo isn't recommended for (it's an automatic), but you may already have the equipment for that.

    You might also like a REO Grand. It's much pricier, but you can keep all your juice in the PV (unless you're a REALLY heavy vaper). :)

    In that case I'd look into something that uses cartos, if you know your going to be too busy to refill use prefilled. During your down time you could refill a bunch and have them on stand by, I still use an 801 penstyle atty and carts (they hold 1.2ml of juice) and a Joye stick. I use an empty Camel snus can to hold some extra carts and a batt, both fit in a shirt pocket with out any problem. When I refill I use a .38 Special ammo box that reloaders use, they hold 20 rounds or carts, and all I do is fill a syringe and fill from the bottom up to prevent air pockets. I do two of those and they have been lasting me about two weeks.

    Hi Bob... using "Intellicig" at present. Didn't say so thinking my thread would get moved to "Reviews". Thanks for what you added.

    You might even be happy with the Smokeless Image Volt over what you have now. Most of us will generally try to sway people away from the smaller-sized cigs because we know battery life is a problem. But, you might even be happy with a Volt and maybe a KR808D-1 XL PCC for carrying and charging your e-cigs (it's about the size of a sunglass case). The Volt is a KR808D-1 and there are 3 sizes of battery to choose from. The longest, 102mm, will give you the best battery life. But the battery life still won't come up to a Riva 510, etc.

    Money.......

    I know this'll sound horrible, but I just want the most hit for the least amount of work. Time is serious money in my life at present (fate is currently kind), so seeking something as easy as lighting up a 'real' cigarette as opposed to current method which is high-maintenance ... cartridge exhausted?, atomizer clean?, does battery still has a good charge?

    And I've gotten some great ideas from all of you. Thanks so much! Andy

    If fates are kind to you,please check into the Reo's. They really do run themselves.

    Thanks, Beans... that's the 2nd time (if not more) I've heard that name and so I'll check them out. Obviously, "kind fate" is not on military pay (am retired) and quite honestly, it makes more money sense for me to concentrate on what is now I.T. work than to spend an hour scewing with a non-working e-cig product. Happily, my Intellicigs are behaving today, though. And I in no way wish to trash the product! They've generally been good and since they opened their USA office, the "local" customer service has been outstanding! Just wondering if there was something lower-maintenance and have gained some great ideas for products to look at.
