sherid, in his original post he stated that one of his requirements for the e-cig being "small" was that it fit in his pocket. This small tidbit leads one to assume that big battery mods are not what he is looking for, since a new vaper might see the big battery mods as not being pocket friendly. This leaves two options, eGo size and cig-alike size, and, since his requirements do not explicitly leave out medium, pocket friendly e-cigarettes, the eGo models would fit the bill in my opinion. This is why I felt secure in recommending eGo batteries to this particular new vaper. I never meant to make it seem like I would be audacious enough to lie about the price of your e-cigarette kit. I never meant to say that I was speaking of the kit you had mentioned. I am/was speaking of the $300 kit that is offered on the website you linked to. I in no way meant to say that the kit you recommended was $300. In closing, I will address your comment, " I see the same EGO EGO EGO recommendation when the OP clearly said he wanted something small and simple. An EGO is neither." I would like to agree to disagree here. I find my 400mah eGo pretty small, with it being the same length of a cig-alike but fatter. I would lump it into the small e-cig category myself. 2ndly, I do not agree that the same eGo eGo eGo recommendation is being brought up.

Post #3 to this thread: eGo TWIST (variable voltage) starter kit w/clearomizers.
Post #5 to this thread: eGo C starter kit. (proprietary atomizer and tank system)
Post #6 to this thread: eGO-T (different proprietary tank system)
Post #7 to this thread: eGo with dual coil cartomizer tank system kit.
As you can see, each and every eGo recommendation with link thus far has been a different type of eGo and/or eGo kit with different type of atomization head configuration.
I never meant to lie. I never meant to recommend something out of OP's requirements. I apologize for putting down the site you linked to, but my humble opinion is that the prices $ descriptions are manipulative. I am sorry if it seems I have attacked you or shown a rude attitude in any way.
