For some reason I cant click on the links that get posted. So I went to the Joyetech site and the eRoll doesn't look like it has a tank for it. The G6 mini tanks might be fine. I will find out probably tomorrow how they are. I just really want to try the bottom coil tanks to see if I get a less burned taste from them. I definitely prefer the tanks to the carts

The eRoll is basically a 3 part e-cig ... it has a very small .4ml tank that sits on top of the atomizer which sits on top of the battery. Essentially it is a Bottom Coil "like" setup since the coil is below the juice and is gravity fed. If the atomizer goes out simply replace it, if the tank goes dry re-fill it. This setup has gotten GREAT reviews from a LOT of notable folks, but I have not tried it yet myself.

If there had been something like this when I was in your position, I may not have gotten into the bigger setups.

Good luck, I hope you find what you are looking for!

If you're saying that you want to use some of the Halo batteries or tanks you already have, you might want to check, but I think I've read that the Halo stuff has proprietary threading and most likely won't fit on what you're thinking of buying. If you haven't been vaping for long you might want to keep trying with the bigger Triton stuff you have for a bit. From personal experience and from what I have read, it seems like most people make the transition to Ego (cigar) sized gear without much problem. But you know best what works for you and anything that keeps you from smoking cigarettes is what you should use. Good luck.

Is this what you want?
Electronic Cigarette - Batteries - Joye 510

Here are the cartomizers for these.
Electronic Cigarette - Cartomizers - Boge Cartomizers

There are no tanks that won't be wider than these batteries. A clearomizer might be close.

The tanks that Halo are calling mini tanks are probably clearomizer, and that's ok. If I cant find a bottom coil tank that would work are there bottom coil clearomizers that just get thrown away instead of changing head. I could live with that also. that would fit the small battery.

LOLLL @ Racehorse was just gonna post about the Esmarts fitting BUT OP should be careful as there are 2.2 ohms and 2.6 ohms Esmarts out there:
Kanger 808D-1 CE5 Clearomizers

Here's the Eroll review:
Pros- fires at 3.7 volts
cig sized batts are inexpensive
PCC included
Cons
.6 ml tank
90 mah batts
atty and tanks are proprietary

I only recommend the Eroll for light smokers.

The V2 carts work with the Halo thread and I bought a $4.00 adapter to use the Blu carts. I really don't want to do the carts after using a tank, the tank is so much better. So I figure I can find an adapter for probably any of the thread types, its the battery size that I'm focused on right now. And I agree that later on I might be fine with the Triton but for now I just want to feel like I am smoking a cigarette

I think DC2 originally postd this. Batts don't degrade near what people think. I do know people LOVE their G6 and LOVE their eRolls, so those are the cigalikes I would get if that is what i was in the market for. :)

The Halo g6 is an 808 threaded battery. There really are no bottom coil tanks that I know of fit that size battery with those threads. There are several clearos that I use on my similar Smokeless Image Volts.

These are T4 clearomizers which are the same as the Halo mini but much cheaper...at $2.25 each they're cheap enough to be disposable.

Kanger 808D-1T4 Clearomizer

These are E-smarts clearos...hold a little more and are just a bit wider than your battery. I like these.

Kangertech E-smart Clearomizer

These will also fit...I have not used them.

Kanger 808D-1 CE5 Clearomizers

These are technically bottom coils but a cross between a carto and a clearo. I'm not fond of them but some swear by them.

Smokeless Image | The Best Electronic Cigarette

That's about it.

OK. So if it says fits most 510 models than that should be the more cigarette like battery and if it says the ego thread that is like my Halo Triton. I can put V2 carts on it and the cone to make it look normal. And I'm assuming the 808 is more like a cigarette?
510 and 808 usually refer to the thread type on a battery or the cartridge that screws on to the battery. The cartridge can be a cartomizer, a tank, a clearomizer, an atomizer or a two piece system with an atomizer and a cartridge that plugs into the atomizer. 510 for historical reasons can also refer to the small cig look alikes with a 510 thread and this causes no end of confusion for beginners. With this one exception the term 510 has nothing to do with battery size or looks.

The battery just delivers electricity to the cartomizer, clearomizer, tank or whatever you use to deliver the juice with. A battery 510 with a 510 thread can be any size or shape.

The 510 is the most popular thread in the vaping community. Almost every juice delivery device can be had with a 510 thread. The 808 thread is second but it's popularity is declining. Right now all you are thinking about is something that will give the the taste and feel of a cigarette. We all went through the same thing and most of us got tired of the limited abilities of the small batteries and went on to something we consider to better and more convenient.
I always recommend a device with a 510 thread because most though not all people will go on to something else. When they do the investment they made will still be useful with that new device and the transition will be easier and less expensive.

The numbers generally associated with rechargeable batteries tell you what you need to know.

The type (18650, 14400, etc.), describes the form factor. For an 18650, the first two numbers (18) are the diameter (18mm). The last three are the length (650mm).

Then there is the voltage, it's self explanatory.

The mah (milliamp/hour) rating indicates the storage capacity of the battery, or how much energy it can hold. It is your best indication of how long the battery will last as opposed to other batteries' mah rating. A 1300mah battery should last twice as long as a 650mah battery.

I love it when I learn something new and useful! I knew what the mah rating meant, but the rest was great info for me! Thanks!

I don't mind having to recharge several times a day. I already have to do that with the Triton and its a bigger battery. I sit at a desk all day. I can charge as much as my little soot covered heart wants. So for me not a big deal. I need to feel like I'm smoking a cigarette. Maybe later on down the road I wont care, but for now I really want to quit smoking.

If you need to charge your Triton batteries "several times a day," there is something wrong with them. Brand new, they should last through the day (even the 400 mah). You should contact Halo customer service and I suspect that they will replace them. Of course, if you are charging them just to make sure that they stay charged, that's another matter.

Also, be warned that the Triton and G6 chargers look almost identical, but Halo warns that charging the Triton with the G6 charger can destroy the battery (I don't think the reverse is true).

Finally, have you checked out the Halo Forum? It's quite active, and there are many people there who can probably help. I'm pretty new, and I use the Triton (not the G6) although I also have an eGo-style battery.

Halo uses 808 threading, which is not proprietary (just not as common as 510). It is possible to use 510 threaded tanks, but it's necessary to get a 510-808 adapter--which can be had for about $3. It doesn't necessarily look pretty, but it works.
