I've been searching around for a small pocket-able setup that is easy to carry, inconspicuous and easy on my wallet. This is what I came up with. Since it's my first order with fasttech so I just made a small trial purchase, a couple of cheap to DCT tanks and this.

$9.79 EGO-EVOD 2-in-1 USB Rechargeable 450mAh Electronic Cigarettes Set - single e-cigarette / silver / 2.5

When I looked around it seemed like the evod is the shortest clearo/carto/whatever tank type of setup. I wanted a trouble free setup that didn't require a bottle of juice. I know it's not very much capacity, but neither is the battery and they should be perfect for a out and about afternoon. the 450mAh battery is nice and tiny, as you can see it's about the same height as the evod.




the total length is just over 4.5" and in this pic you can see how short it is in comparison to a 900mAh pass-thru battery with a tubetank which rings in at 6.75". the complete setup is only a little bit longer then the 900mAh battery alone.



The evod which is a clone works great, in fact I like the draw better then my genuine protank2 which is too airy. The evod has a nice smooth draw no dry hits like the protank. No idea how the battery life hold up, but will get back to that in a few weeks. The finish on this set is great nice brushed stainless steel look, no noticeable flaws that I can see. Blue led 5 click button. The only thing I don't really like is the viewing windows on the evod, it's sharp and you can feel the edge of the metal. Does the genuine evod also have this characteristic? All things considered, for less then 10 bucks getting a battery, evod and charger is a winner in my book, it's cheaper then just the battery alone at other sites. If you want small stealth device this is it.

update. Been using this thing for the past couple of days.

For what it is I really like it. The evod has been performing perfectly. I had to remove two top wicks (came with 3) since I'm using 50/50 juice. It has a good draw, not too stiff and not too easy but just right. Since removing the wicks no dry hits and tons a vapor for such a small device.

The 450mAh battery is great, is the perfect small pocketable setup and doesn't attract attention. Takes about 2.5 hours for a full charge from dead empty where it won't even fire. The button has a good clicky feel. The battery indicator is useless, by the time it starts blinking it wont fire anymore so you don't get any advance warning the powers low. I don't know what the output voltage is but it seems to be a bit higher then my inferno battery as I get a little bit more vapor out of it. For run time it's ok, I didn't expect much since it's so small but still I wish it was a little longer. I can get about half a days use out of it if I go easy on it. If I'm vaping away it's done in 2-3 hours. To give you an idea of run time, I seem to be able to vape one full evod tank on a full charge which works out pretty good. I can judge how much time is left by how much juice is in the tank. The evod and the 450mAh seems like a perfect match capacity wise since they both run out of juice at the same time.

good buy, I would recommend it if you want something tiny but still have decent performance.

That's very cool.

This one is also a 450mah, not an eGo but close...a Vision Spinner. With a VapeOnly Mini BCC it's a bit larger at just about 5 inches. Lasts a good while too. But it was $20 not including the drip tip, so it probably doesn't count as a steal or anything.
