There are large capacity cartos that hold 4-5 ml of liquid. They only cost about $3.

Welcome I am also using the CE5 that came with my starter kit. I started 4 days ago and so far so good. Congrats to you and Hope this works for you as well.
I can't imagine using cartos without a tank. You can pick up a Boge F16 for about $8 (US). Six pounds, I suppose? Give that a shot.
Totally agree on the IBTanked/carto setup!
For close to a year Vivi Novas w/ an Ego Twist battery were my go-to, and I still use them sometimes as a quick and easy option. Toss one in my bag, good to go.
But - by far I prefer my Provari Mini w/ an IBTanked pyrex glass cartotank on top these days. Here's a pic of my Provari (chubby little thing, but it works so well!!!) with a 22mm IBTanked topper (lasts me weeks, but I use several flavors, per the pic below). I use the refilling drip tip, takes 30 seconds to fill the tank, seriously. I use the little Thingy cases the tanks come in to hold the tanks of flavors I'm not using at the moment, so I can swap flavors any time. As noted above, the thingy also makes it REALLY easy to prime new cartos.
Easy, no mess, great vaping...perfect!

Totally agree. Best purchase I've made for vaping in quite a while. All my other stuff just sits collecting dust.
And yes, the bottom coil heads have gone WAY downhill over the past year. I got so sick of having heads leak, or taste terrible, not last very long, etc & leaving me high & dry. Nuts to that. Carts may be an "old tech", but they're tried & true, very consistent. And gotta love that sizzle.
I've been using cartos for a few days now and I'd say you should fill it up more every 60-80 puffs
Thanks everyone for your helpful advice.
I got the Odyssey cartotank from Totally Wicked and it's perfect for my commute, and will suit for longer journeys too. Not that I travel far very often anyway. To be honest it would probably last all day long, but I find it a bit big for carrying in my pocket, and I like to switch flavours anyway, so the cartotank is mostly for driving only, but ideal for the job.
I also got an EVOD and mini protank. Personally I'm not keen on the protank, but very pleased with the EVOD. So my next purchase needs to be a couple of spare EVODs!
2 weeks without a cigarette now

Good for you. I thought the Odyssey tank was a bad idea in the first place. 1) it's too big.... 2) it's Totally Wicked....(totally too expensive, totally over-hyped)
which mini Protank did you get, does it have a version number?
Did I say EVODS were £3.49 from some very reliable vendors, just in case you'd stumbled on one charging £7.99 or something silly.
and replacement heads are £1.20 if you buy 5. The amount of places charging £2 or £2.50 is hard to believe.
Congratulations on the 2 weeks.
EVODs are nice. I've moved up to an advanced device but for the "stick" style batteries like Twists, I was using almost nothing but EVODs after a while. Good performance, dead easy to fill and clean.
I'm finding the Odyssey tank ideal for what I want it for. The mini protank is a version 1 as far as I can tell (does not come apart). Yes I got the EVOD for a very reasonable price.
Got accosted by mr first weirdo about my ecig today. A drunk man was telling me how it's still smoking and looks weird. Whatever. If you are English you will understand the type of person I mean if I explain that this happened outside Wetherspoons in Bromley.

Congrats on the two weeks! Whatever works best for you is always the best setup you can use.
