Can someone recommend a cig-style battery that will fit/look good (read: flush) with a 2ohm 510 carto (male threads, if that matters)? I have several eGo setups, including variable voltage, but once in a while I'd like something with a lower profile for taking out in public. Basically a cig-a-like setup. Plus I think this would be the setup that may get my BF to finally jump on the vape train, as he thinks even the ego is too "obtrusive".

I apologize in advance if this is an obvious question, but I have zero ecig knowledge outside of the eGo system. (But I'm not enough of a newbie that I can still post this in the New Members Forum. :oops:)

Thanks.

I really like the SD Keyring for a stealthy 510 vape. Its bigger brother the Maxi looks quite nice (I want to pick one up). Doesn't look like a cigarette, but its an automatic switch, 300mah battery and tiny.

I would say the Volt 808s, but, er, they are 808s :p

JoyeTech does make a line of 510 cig sized batteries.

"... a 2ohm 510 carto "
You can buy some 22mm shorty cartos, and/or shorty drip tip. 2.5ohm of course. Also don't use a drip tip on my 510 mini batteries just the rubber piece
"Basically a cig-a-like setup. "
Look into the joytech eroll
"Plus I think this would be the setup that may get my BF to finally jump on the vape train, as he thinks even the ego is too "obtrusive"."
As a former (and current?) 510 user I'd have to say that the experience, even with a pcc, was a drag.
Things to consider for this 88-93mm setup, assuming you use a pcc.
1. Unscrewing the atty for the pcc, putting it back together for a drag.
2. Its 3.3v and 220mah for a 66mm auto battery. You can go bigger, but the ecig gets longer and may not fit in the pcc.
3. Refilling the tiny cartos/atty's/clearos. The 22mm carto is good for "maybe" 2-3 sessions. 3 35mm cartos should last a new vaper a day. There's a new 1ml clearo out there, I've read more negative than positive things about it.

Now you can avoid all that by carrying a few complete 510's, but you'd need the multicharger or a few single chargers.

Also, I use 24mg or higher ejuice in these mini setups. I still have 2 working 510 manual batteries from 2009 :)
Thanks for posting on ECF!

The e-roll is small but doesn't use cartomizers. The 510 batteries are a good choice and you can use a pcc case to recharge on the go. I have been using the Joye e-cab with the optional 510 adapter and throwing on a shorty. It is a little bit wider then the 510 cartos but the adapter makes it blend well. The battery on the e-cab is a 350mah (mega 510s are I believe 280mah). I carry a few extra joye 10440 batteries with me when I use the Joye e-cab. Nice for public outings when you don't want to stand out.
