Background – I've been off of analogs for a while now, and trying to get my mother to quit as well. She is underwhelmed with the basic pen-style one she has, likes my Russian 91% with sentinel, but it's too bulky.


So, question is: What is the best pen-size PV that gives the most bang for the buck? It needs to be smaller than a mech mod. Surely there is a great setup out there, so I'm hoping you guys can give me some suggestions for her, I really, really want her to quit!



Thanks, Guys 'n Gals.

You could get a joye tech 510 manual battery (for a smaller size set up) and a 510 low resistance atty if she likes your rebuildable, but no tank. Or you could snag a ego twist/vision spinner and go for a tank set up. The egos are a smidge bigger, but they're better, more vape time, vv with the spinner/twist. It's a pretty basic set up to start out with. Hope she gets off the smokes!

    No you can't
    Got this over 14 months ago it's a passive device works really well and can be used with a tank or carto works as good as my Vamo with less effort.

    The price is a little high but its well made and you get two batteries. Comes with wall charger. Comes just the way you see it.

    You could purchase one battery and a wall charger only though I suggest the hole kit for a gift its like any thing else first impressions makes a difference best to start her off with something pretty and close to a cig look as possible and work with little effort. The Cig look thing seems to be a big plus for on comfortable levels makes the transaction of switching easier.

    "Two (2) protected 650mAh, 2.8V pass-through batteries with on/off button, non-slip grip, removable light up end cap and pressure release ports."

    Cig-a-like is portable but it will not give you enough, because of the small battery. Anyway, some of them is acceptable, just like E-roll, E-cab or Innokin 510-t. If you want to save your money, you should buy a device with 510 connection so you can buy some little clearomizer to use later (sorry but they are no name).
    Another choice will be 650mah ego battery, with a clearomizer on it, the whole lenght is just about 100MM, I think it is suitable for your mom too.
    You should buy top coil clearomizer; it give you a hot, sweet vapor. You should start with tobacco flavor at under 18mg.

    I would not order from that company.
    I have had bad products recieved and i had to pay for shipping returns and only could get partial credit.
    And they are way over priced. I bought an itaste kit paid $70 it was defective, had to pay return shipping, they sent another that too was defective had to pay return shipping again, only got a partial credit, used that towards a mvp2, it was $70.. It brike three days after i got it. So i ordered my 2nd from 101 vapes and have had no issues.

    101 vapes has the vv3 for pretty cheap. Think its $28 shipped, or check desertvapes, they have excellent customer service and even answer the phone when you call.

    I just bought my wife and I two iTaste VV3s from Desert Vapes for 26 each... we love them. Also, I'm helping an elderly, mostly bedridden, lady with ecigs, and decided on the Kanger T3S for her. Bought her 6 of those. I give her 3 full ones, take 3 empties home and clean and fill them. The T3S is 3ml, large enough to last but not too big. Right now, she's rotating two of my eGo batteries but I'm going to get her a VV3 also. I like that you can plug it up to charge and still use it if needed... and I love that it's "square" so it doesn't roll off the table when you lay it down.

    Conclusion: If I were you, I'd get mom a VV3 and some T3Ss... add a "wall-wart" USB charger and long USB cable and she's set.

    Have you been as surprised as I was how long the battery last and how quick it charges right back up and how it performs?

    The experience on Vea is like using my Vamo at around 6 volts. The one thing with this type of unit is that they be should be used with around 2.0 ohm carto or coils in your tank and your get good performance out of it. For a fix volt device it's very stable with performance right up to needing a charge nagain.

    I like it a lot I'm about ready to order two more just waiting for them to go on sale.

    We just have to keep in mind its only a battery and will last just so long. I don't see a problem with up to 500 charges with it.

    Yet another vote for the ITaste VV3. A great product!

    If you're going to fill tanks for her, I personally like the EVOD's, although she might like the shape/size/look of the IClear16's or CE4's (they might also be a better choice if she's going to do the refilling). They don't hit as well as many other heads, though IMHO.

    I agree with LadieKali, the itaste vv3 is great. However, you might want to take a look at this. It has all the same features as the itaste vv3 but is 1300mah and will last all day. The itaste vv3 is only 800mah.

    Thanks for the link. That's exactly what I've been looking for I'll place my order soon.

    Can you answer a few questions for me. I don't see how many times they claim it can be charged and how long have you used it.

    Does it have a puff counter

    You're welcome. :) If I remember correctly, they should be good for about 300 charges. It does not have a puff counter, sorry I forgot to mention that. I always forget because that's something I'd have no use for.

    I've been using mine every day for about 2 months now and I absolutely love it. I run around a lot at work and it's nice not to have to carry around another battery or worry about having to charge it. It lasts me all day and then some, of course it depends on how much you vape.

    Sorry to hear you've had so much trouble Ladiekali.
