Have converted my sister to vaping by buying her a disposable while I wait on my E-Power 18650. However, she wants a cigarette style that she can fill herself and hopefully vape all day on one battery, but have a spare battery as well. Can anyone point me to a supplier that might have a kit I can order for her that fits this bill? The three stores I have visited so far have low batteries in their starter kits (unless I can also purchase a higher mah battery at the same place that will fit the 510) Since I still haven't gotten my first kit, I don't want to make a mistake and order the wrong thing.:unsure:

Thanks All!

You might try one of these . Bought a set for my daughter and her husband . They love it , and got the desired effect . They both quit the analogs . There's three manual batteries , 3 atty's and I think 5 prefilled carts . and I think it comes with a bottle of juice as well . The batteries seem to last a long time . My daughter and her husband were hittin it pretty steady , all day long on the first battery . and there are 2 spares . The kit runs 60.00 but for what you get , not bad , and about the size of a 100 size cigarette .

There's no cigarette style e-cig out there that will fit your sister's criteria. That's the problem with them and why people opt to get a KGO or another big batt kit. Which can last them a whole day if they buy the 1000 + mah batts.

The 78mm batteries can last 4 hrs (obviously depends on vaping style) at the most but, if you get a PCC then that can charge that battery 2 times. Which will extend the time that she gets to vape it along with an extra battery.

If she really wants something that resembles a cigarette then the new KR808's such as the VOLT will be good for her. Also, you can customize the order as well:

Well that's a tough one... a single cig style battery that will last all day. Might check out the volt or the fuze kits to name a couple. Now they come with two batts and alone they may not last all day however you can get them with a PCC which would alow them to last all day. The fuze kit comes with a PCC the volt depends on which kit you get. Hope this helps a bit. As a side note dig the avatar

Thank you all for taking the time to look things up for me. After perusing each site, I think the Smok Tech EGO LR kit with 1.25ohm Dual coils from Hoosier seem to be the closest fit to what she wants and her budget to begin with! (thanks sandybeach!)

Sounds like a solid choice. Let us know how it works out.

Something like the 510 or 808 kits with the PCC could serve as a starting point to get her through the day if she's willing to rotate the batteries in and out of the PCC. That's how I started and I still use that kit when I'm out and about, but I find myself using my mod exclusively around the house and have even started taking it with me. The truth is a small battery like in those kits may not be enough to keep her satisfied depending on how much she smokes. I'd suggest waiting for your kit to show up and have her give that a try. I wouldn't be surprised if she found the superior performance enough to sway her from her desire to have a PV that is about the size of an analog.

Note - I only recommend manual 510 and stay away from FS510 (reverse electrical polarity from all other 510's). I recommend avoiding all auto batteries but if you happen to buy 510-T auto then never ever use its charging cable on any other kinds of 510-threaded batteries because the 510-T cable will melt them.

ALSO - if you buy a Kgo or Ego or Riva 510 battery as a long charge 510 battery you should get it its own correct charging cable and never charge the slim 510 on the fat battery's fast charger cable (it will damage slim batteries).

I will Sweeney Todd...I liked the look and specs of the volt as well, but she is a young widow on a fixed income and wanted to keep her start up cost close to $50-$60 :toast:

If she is on a tight budget, I would have recommended the Riva 510 from Liberty Flights, but they are plum sold out. I will, however, recommend the Riva 901 (KR808D-1 compatible) for $29.99 with the coupon code "october20". Grab a 901->510 adapter if you are dead set on using 510 attys/cartos/tanks/etc.
