Need help picking an analog style e-cig.... HELP!!!

Alright, first off I'd like to say this is a great forum. Tons of info, and everybody here seems very helpful. Anyways, I'm looking to purchase an analog style starter kit, and decided to spend a few hours surfing here in order to hopefully narrow down my choices. Unfortunately, I ended up going the other way, and adding to my list of possibilities. I've got a few options here that I need help with.

My first thought was SmokeTip, due to their reviews, and the warranty on their batteries. I've seen a couple threads about people not having the warranty honored, but those all seem to be over a year old. They have lots of happy customers.

Started looking at the Joye product line, and saw their eRoll. Good looking unit, but seems it would cost more over the life of the ecig due to everything being proprietary.

Once I started reading around on here, I became aware of the Smokeless Volt system. Looks like a good system, with lots of happy customers.

Also on here, I found the Sidesho Select, which seems to give me tons of color options, as well as a good package deal.

Anyways, those are the ones that have caught my eye, and I need to know where I should spend my money. I know that everybody on here prefers the larger style vapes, but I would like to stick with the analog style products. I usually smoke 1 PAD right now, Marlboro Lights. I am using this as a tool to quit, not to change my method. I plan on using this, and tapering off the nicotine 100%.

Again, that's my PLAN. Hopefully it works.

I do want one that can use a PCC, due to the fact that I work 10 hour days away from home, and I would hate to run out of power. I also need to make sure the PCC will carry extra carts, or whatever the name is, and I would really prefer to have two completely assembled in the pcc. Some of them break the devices down to fit the case. I'm expecting to kill at least one full one daily before I get home. If you have any questions that will help you narrow down my choices, post up. I'll be checking this frequently today.

Thank you for helping guide this lost smoker.....

I haven't tried the volt, but i have tried several cigarette type units. My main gripe with these is although some of them produce decent vaper, none of them produce a decent throat hit. Personally, without the throat hit, it doesn't feel like smoking, and i was still smoking a lot of cigarettes to get that satisfaction. I'd look into ego battery setups. You'll be much happier with the quality of the vape

I started with Volts 5 months ago and still use them, and they have an active forum here (down in the vendor section). I can't say enough good things about them, and their customer service is top notch. I recommend the manual batteries. I thought in the beginning that an auto would be more like regular smoking, but it's not. The manual is much better. Although I now use their X2 bats more, I still like the Volts for out and about, and for those times when I want to feel more like I'm smoking.

I would suggest the eRoll for one very big reason...
You don't have to take it apart to put it in the PCC and charge the battery.

Also, the PCC is probably the smallest one on the market.
It fits in your pockets without feeling like you're carrying around a brick.
:)

It is basically an Ego-C (uses the same atomizer) in a cigarette-sized package.
But you will have to carry spare cartridges separately.

I too am still researching before making my first purchase, but have my list narrowed with the Halo G6 currently at the top. It's an in-between product: larger than the typical analog clone and doesn't look at all like an analog, but a lot smaller than the eGo and similar. Battery life is purportedly better than the analog clones, but not as good as the eGo. And on and on.......

Might be worth adding it to your research list to see if it meets your needs/expectations.
