Size does matter!

[Steam Turbine]

Here's another hypothetical question:

We all know that battery size matters; The bigger the battery, the longer the vape time.
If, in a near future, batteries would be 10 times as good as they are today. Would you rather use something small, like a cig a like that would offer you a full day of vaping or would you still want a big battery mod that would last you about a week?

When a full day battery shrinks to the cig-alike size then the juice + delivery tech will have to play catch up too. A cig sized battery with a micro tank system capable of delivering a full days vape without re-fueling! now you're taking!

 

[Scottmeier360]

agreed, but i still like my 18350's for on the go oooOooo...or a mech mod with 18500...thats good too...and if they went 10 fold and made a 8000 mah 18350 batt i probably wouldnt be using my 18650's at home much either...on the contrary my hand like the previously described size, but for stealth vaping at work (per say...nobody does this) a BLU sized device that was 2000 mah and a carto that held a full day and then some would be extremely handy!!

Well, if they could make a device that had the capabilities of my Vamo, but the size of a standard ego... 6500 mah?

That would be incredible.

I'd be thrilled with a box mod I could take on a week long camping trip without needing extra batteries!

I like the EGO size. Small enough to fit in my pocket, but big enough to be hard to lose.

 

[knitcrotatter]

I too prefer the EGO size - fits nicely in pocket or purse, lasts all day. Vape On!

All-solid lithium-sulfur battery stores four times the energy of lithium-ions coming soon, but I dont think they will be much smaller in most cases.

Does size matter? Yes it does. Oh. Wait. That's not what you were talking about.

 

[serenity21899]

I would like the longer lasting batteries, but I am not willing to give up the mods I already have, which are bigger than an ego.

You may not be able to fathom this now, but the future of e-cigarettes and vaporizers will rest in battery technology alone.

Our current concept of a battery is something that is metallic, heavy, cylindrical, and large. But this will be put to rest once we start using graphene and other carbon-based energy sources....

Trust me. Batteries will be tiny and the rest of the e-cigarette will be back to its original form.

Perhaps, but I think that juice capacity will temper that a little bit. A teeny battery will have a teeny capacity. What good is a battery that will last you a week when you have to refill it all the time? That would get annoying right quick. That's why I think that if there was a substantial evolutionary leap in battery capacity technology, I think the ego form factor would be ideal. It would be comfortable to hold, give some room to put in a decent sized display...

How about a car battery in a tuba?

I prefer nothing larger than an eGo. It is my patter to hold my PV in my hand much the same way as I held cigs. And I extend my pinky proper, like when getting a good sip of tea.

I kid you not.

gonna have to disagree with you on two points.
My backup battery:

Amazon.com: Yubi Power YP840A 8400mAh Portable Power Bank Backup External Battery Charger for iPhone 3/4/5 and Samsung Galaxy 2/3 (Black): MP3 Players & Accessories

And I don't want or need an ecigarette. An epipe maybe....
I will stick with the PVs I have now, for now, but I want a pipe that I can rest in my mouth with a clear visible tank and a battery life approaching 10,000 mah.

 

[LeoRex]

Has anyone done a pipe mod? Like an old timey Sherlock Holmes looking thing?

 

[hmorphone]

Well, if they shrunk far enough, you could have a carto the size of a cig-alike's battery and a battery the size of a cig-alike's carto!
Problem solved!

 

[LucentShadow]

I'd go with smaller, if it lasted a day. I don't see any breakthrough coming in compressing e-liquid, though, so it would be the limiting factor.

I had the same idea, which I think would be brilliant... But I'm a modest guy, so disregard the fact that I said it was brilliant.

You mean like this? epipemods


Personally I think that I would want the same big battery mod like my provari but with a huge mAh.
