I've actually been vaping for 4-5 years, but haven't bought a new E-cig in god knows how long. Last thing I bought was a couple of the old PureSmoker Prodigy V3's back when they were new, whenever that was (which sadly they don't seem to make any more). They still work completely excellently, however I wouldn't mind getting one a bit smaller and lighter at least for when I'm at work and it's sittin' in my shirt pocket.

I originally started on (completely forget the brand) the ol' cig-shaped black ones with the little blue light up tips. Something like that again would be great. Small, light, and can hide away in my pocket without sticking out and getting a lot of "The hell kind of pen is that in your pocket?" kind of questions. But my main problem with those, at least years ago when I started off with'em, was they had a super-crappy design where the smallest bit of over-dripping would lead to the juice dripping directly into holes in the battery which would kill the battery pretty immediately.

Mainly just curious if there's any brand that has that simple type of e-cig, but hopefully by now they've removed said leakage hole that leads directly into the battery. Some kind of On/Off switch'd be great too. I don't necessarily want to have to push a button every time I go to take a puff, but it'd be good to be able to turn it 'Off' when I'm not actively using it.. I know with the old ones I used, even a slight breeze would make that thing fire off in my pocket, another crappy design flaw.

I figured rather than trying to peruse the 500 random E-cig brands/sites, I'd ask here, if that kind of Cig is out there I'd imagine you guys would know.. Oh, I also only drip.. always hated those little prefilled things that were good for a few puffs and then you had to go buy new ones. Just buying my own juice by itself makes way more sense.

Another thing is I'm completely out of the loop with the jargon now. Last time I bought something that wasn't juice or a pack of penstyle atomizers a lot of the current stuff didn't seem to exist (or at least I never ran into it).. Tanks, Cartomizers, Clearomizers, etc.. No idea what most of those things even are or how they differ from basic atomizers, any random update on the newer stuff would also be appreciated!

My advice for a good battery that is pocket friendly would be a Smok Tech Winder. They are variable voltage from 3.0-4.8 volts with the twist of a dial at the bottom of the battery. They are available in 1300 mah which will last most people all day. The 1300s are just a tad longer than a 650 mah Ego so very small and compact. You can get them here for under $20 using discount code delicious

NEW! Smoktech Winder VV eGo Battery (1300 mAh)

Kanger has some nice bottom coil clearos out that are inexpensive to use because you only have to replace the coil. The T3S hold about 2.5 mls and are easy to fill from the bottle. They work great with a Winder and are great for portabilty. They are out of stock at Exhale but can be found most anywhere.

I hope that this info helped you and good luck!
