What I want:
1)Thicker vapor if that can even happen. Every once in a while I sneak an analog for this effect then immediately wish I had not cos it tastes horrid and will kill me.
2) If thicker vapor can't happen then more vapor than my Janty ego 650. (why because it just doesn't consistently hit heavy even with the same TV Liquid)
3) Best strong taste. Some days I can taste my vape other days not so much.
4) Decent battery life. I want to get at least the battery life I get now with the Ego 650mAH but better out put.
5) A safe item to use, and it can use regular 510 attys and still perform well.

Help me out people. Thanks in advance.

The Saber Touch is big, but it's not bad to use. I'm struggling with 5 volts, though. I think it's just too much for me.

Here's a picture of my ST with an assortment of eGos, a vGo, and a regular 510. You can get a good idea what it's size is as compared to the others.

TV juices + The Buzz is an amazing combo imo... I adjust my voltage to meet whichever liquid I'm using.. Like, TastyFinger is much better at around 4v than at 5v, but TV's Menthol, to me, is better at about 5.5v. My wife just got a blue one and loves it at 4.5v with more fruity flavors.

Some people seem pretty daunted at the whole adjustable voltage thing, but once you get it, I think it's a lot easier than they expect.

Plus it comes in Purple and Peach colors now! LOL

The first question, of course, is if you are looking for thicker vapor/more vapor, is what PG/VG mix do you order from Tasty Vapor?

You shouldn't have any trouble finding something with better battery life than a 650mAh. Look by battery size.

If you vape at 3.7v, buy something that uses an 18650 battery. You can get an IMR one at 1,600mAh. Protected li-ions go as high as 3,000mAh. (Okay, the latter is from a company known for being overly-optimistic in calculating their hours, but AW is considered accurate and they have a li-ion 18650 that's 2,600mAh.) Most people who use these go 2 days between battery changes.

Several of the mods that take an 18650 do 6v with a pair of RCR123s. You'll get more vapor at 6v plus a battery life of 880mAh -- not 3,000, granted, but still longer than 650mAh.

I'm a Chuck fan. I have a Little Chuck and covet a big one. The only other mod I'd really love is a Precious L.

I have a saber, and while it is a little big, it works well. If you have the money and do not mind waiting a little bit, I would go for the precious. It looks really nice. I would have gotten one, but the price tag is a little higher than the saber (which comes with a 5 year warranty) and I believe it is a back order item. In other words, you will have to wait awhile to get a precious. If you are looking for quick and cheap, I would try a box mod from boxmods.net. You can try 5V vaping for a low cost to see if you like it. Last time I checked, you can get the box mod at 5V with a set of batteries and a charger for $50.00. That is a heck of a deal IMO.

CV :D

Or if you're just getting a box mod to "try 5v vaping to see if you like it" just get a 5v passthrough from MadVapes... 15 dollars... Hella cheap.

Well IMO most of the mods are bulky and ugly but it's the vaping experience that I'm looking for. I didn't go for the buzz because I'm limited on funds. Just happened that Whataclumseygirl was selling her ST. On the classifieds at a great price I couldn't pass it up! But I do love the vape quality from ego battery with LR cartos and LR atomizers. So if you don't have a lot of money II would go for ego battery with the LR cartomizers.

I was looking into getting a buzz but there are sooo many things I found out that I don't like about them. For example the fact that you have to carry around a phillips head screwdriver just to change the voltage, plus, how do you even know which voltage you're really vaping at if it's just a screw with no numbers/dials? Sorry, WAYYY off topic.

Yeah that would be a pain I'll stick with my trusty saber!

If you don't want to spring for a battery mod yet, I'd try the combination of increasing the %VG and using a low rez atomizer to see what it would be like.

For example the fact that you have to carry around a phillips head screwdriver just to change the voltage...
Carrying a screwdriver wouldn't bother me. What to do with it after I finished stripping the screw during the first week could be problematic.

The Precious L is off the market. He'll be coming out with the new version soon (which I also won't have the $$ for.)

The buzz screw is flat-head, not phillips.. so no worries about stripping it.

It comes pre-set at 4.5v, and you can use a little voltage-per-turn chart he has to change your volts, or you can just spin the screw, vape, spin, vape.. to find a good spot. Doesn't really matter exactly what specific voltage you're at if you find a sweet spot on the juice you're vaping. Or, of course, you can use a multimeter :)

Anyway, like I said before, the buzz is a LOT easier to handle and manage than most people that haven't touched one think. The 1st time I used it with a juice I thought was pretty useless (no TH/Vapor production) and dialed in the voltage to actually get that juice to perform, I was hooked :) btw, the juice was a 100% PG strawberry that at 3.7 was blegh, but at 4.8. nomnom
