Why is it seemingly impossible to get any measurements for the size of these things? lol I've searched and read and searched some more. Can anyone tell me either by measurement or by regular cigarette comparison, how long each of the above is, fully assembled with a carto? And, obviously the 501's would have the shortest duration and number of drags with a carto, but how does the KR8 stack up against the 902? What are the major differences between the KR8's and the 902's if any?

With a carto on them? The Kr808 would be the longest, at about 115mm.

The 510 with a carto is somewhat shorter. Maybe 100 length?

Not sure about the 902 - I believe it would be between the 510 and the Kr808 with a carto. But I'm not sure there are 902 cartos. I could be wrong.

The Kr808 is going to give you the best battery life in that size range. The 510 would be a cooler vape, due to a slightly lower voltage - some people like that, others don't. Apart from that, they're all good starter models. You can't really go wrong with any of them.

Thanks so much! That makes such a difference to me. It means the KR808 is only about 1/2 longer than one of my regular 100's. I can deal with that for the extra battery life and drags.

With the KR808D-1 you have a choice of 3 battery lengths. The XL gives me a full day of vaping and since I am a former 120 smoker I like the extra length visually. The regular length is similar to a cigarette length and 2 manuals last me a full day. The shorty is shorter and I have never tried that one. The v2cigs.com website is very detailed and gives the exact length of eacfh battery with carts attached. It also gives the storage rating of each battery (how long it will last). I think XLs are 380 mah, standard 250 and shortys like 150.

Oh, that's so good to know as I saw both alternatives to standard on Litecigusa's site where I finally placed my very first order. Do you know if the PCC's accomodate the XL's, or maybe it wouldn't matter to me if an XL lasted a full day, but what do you put all your stuff in for a full day at work?

Cool! I know the standard battery length, but not the XL or the shorty.

Just be sure to shop around. V2 has some good info, but they're extremely over-priced. You can find Kr808 kits for 30 bucks. Try LiteCigUSA.net, but be sure to get extra cartomizers.

Gotta agree with you on Litecigusa so far. They had incredible prices, excellent shipping charges (free priority mail for orders over $75, but only $2 regular shipping for any other under) and I got an email verfication of my order within minutes of placing it. So far, so good. :D

The PCC will charge an XL, but the lid won't close. The battery is too long.

How long they last kinda depends on how you vape. They only last me 6 hours. But I vape quite a lot.

When I was still mostly using the Kr808's, I left with an extra battery in my PCC, 2 extra full cartos, and an assembled one in my pocket.

Thanks, good to know. And I just had a great thought. We had these fancy pens we used to give away to special business partners at work and they came with a stock of black, velveteen, cloth holders. We've still got extra supply. I'll bet I could use one of those to hold an XL! You can find them dirt cheap on the internet, too, if you look for business gift sites, although I suspect you might have to buy bulk. Maybe the e-cig suppliers already had this bright idea.
