Ready to step up, need advice!

[meems]

Started with Blu..did it's job, moved to joye 510's, ok..but I really need longer battery life.

I like having a personal charger case.
Don't want to use a syringe to fill.
I want to be able to use a LR atty.
I am a heavy vapor.
tank sounds interesting, but I'd like it more of an add on than primary in case I don't like it.
Right now I primarily drip...constantly!
seem to prefer the manual bettery, though the auto has it's place when the hands are busy.

I am going on vacation out of the country in April, we will have full day excursions & I want to be prepared with the least amt of supplies to haul around.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

A longer life battery means it is heavier. Heavy batteries almost require a hands-on application. So that pretty much eliminates the auto battery.

Have you checked into an eGo or Riva 510 with cartomizers?
Yes, the tank system is do-able with the eGo or Riva.

I believe the eGo offers a PCC. I do not think that is an option with the Riva, but I may be wrong.

The ego battery is offered in 650mah, 900mah, and 1000mah. Most people find the 900mah lasts them all day, but the 1000mah would certainly get you through a day.

The Riva battery is offered in a 750mah.

The higher the mah, the longer the battery life.

You might want to look at the ProVape-1. It is not built for the tank system, but there are adapters than can be purchased so the tank system can work on it. It requires one battery, which would fit easily into your pocket or camera case. You would carry extra batteries and switch them out as needed. I am a heavy vaper and one battery on the Pro-Vape-1 lasts me between 4 & 5 hours.

Hope this information helps a little. Others will be along shortly to give you more opinions and idea.
Happy vaping,
Paula

Wishing you All the best,

My vote is for the reo grand.

It uses an 18650 which is good for the better part of 2 days on my other mods. Its a bottom juice feeder so load it up with 6ml of juice and thats also good for the better part of 2 days (for me anyhow). It is built out of a block of aluminum so its not going to break when you drop it.

I really like the idea of a mod that I can grab and go. No extra batteries or bottles..... its just a small metal box and maybe keep an extra atty / carto in the car.

I agree with Paula,sounds like 2 1000mah egos and you would be set.Just an extra batt and atty and a small bottle of juice to carry for extras,or the smaller egos and a charging case would work too.

I can get 8-10 hours out of my Buzz with the right batteries. Ultrafire 16340's will not last near as long as my AW ICR123's. I've gotten 10-12 hrs out of them, and I'm retired and vape all day...........and much of the night. I start at about 7:30am and hit the sack around 1am. I don't chain vape, but I do vape off and on all that time. YMMV.

Thanks for the input so far!

I'd agree on the Reo. I have a reo mini and use a 14500 battery (900 Mah) and a fully charged battery lasts me about 9 hours. I put a good juice in (it's gotta be one of my "go to's-cause I'll be vaping it almost exclusively ALL day) and carry an extra battery-just in case.

So, if one wants to be super prepared with a Reo grand/mini and will be away from their supplies for an extended amount of time all they really would need to bring with them are 1 extra batt. and an extra atty/carto (both mods vape off of an atty/carto). That's it-nothing else needed.

Sometimes it's hard to get hold of a new Reo from the manufacturer (he only makes a small number available for purchase at a time) so feel free to browse the "classifieds" Classifieds and swaps and one will pop up (quite often actually).

So am I going to have trouble finding the reo? Or..? Best place to find it?

Not in love at all with my new joye 510, the atomizers just don't get it for me past a couple of days even with cleaning well...very disappointed in that purchase...I am mostly back to my blu's now, yes, my blus are working better..

You can get the reomods here reosmods.com

They sell out fast so you need to keep up with when he puts them up for sale. Think he is going to have a few up on 3/3 and more shortly after. Sign up on his site and make sure you have a working paypal account. They are 2nd vendor from the bottom of this forum in the vendor section.

 

[meems]

Thanks for that link..not loving the box idea though...any other suggestions?

Another vote for the REO Grand, best mod ever. A few went on sale tonight, and there are some left! gogogo

I wasn't too stoked on the box thing either til I puffed on a REO. If you don't like it you can sell it in a nanosecond on the classifieds.
