The big battery ego Bloog wish list and speculation thread

[caged]

Leaford is working on a big battery product, and that got me thinking about what I really want out of a big battery model and speculating about how it could happen.

If I'm going to use a large model that looks more like a cigar, I want better all around performance. Much better battery life is a given, but I also want a good amount more vapor and taste (I'm not a fan of a heavy throat hit so I'm leaving it off my list).

As far as looks are concerned, I'd like to see a good mix between tough, cool, and classy (i don't want to be embarrassed to use it out in public).

As for speculation.....If Bloog decides to stick with the same KR8 cartomizers, then I hope to see a higher voltage product (someone mentioned the Bloog cartos work well at 5 volts). A dual cartomizer unit (or an extra large cartomizer and heating element) that produces double the vapor of the regular unit would be pretty interesting too. I think I'd prefer a higher voltage battery over lower resistance cartomizers, but I'm not very experienced yet.

In any case, this thread is all in fun. I'm sure whatever Leaford comes up with will be great.

I would love a batt option that a little bigger yes, for like backup, but NOT as fat as the ego/rivas... They are just fat enough for me not beeing able to handle them without getting irritated.. Especially when you have the godawful button... And they are to heavy. I bet a thing right in between kr8 and riva would fit the bill... with cartos that match offcourse.. Uhh with flat tips...
In DK we have a thing that size wise is half a cigar. Its called a cerut? THose exist in US??
oh forgot to say it should be auto and manual option, and maybe with a tank cart.. oh that would be so cool..

i think they are called "cigarillos" here.

I'm not sure what he means by "half a cigar" but a "cigarillo" would be like a swisher sweet or a black & mild. Similar diameter to a cig but longer than a 100.

I'd say its about twice the dia. of a cigarette....would be perfect

 

[Alky]

it's really not that much bigger...

I mean that may already be the typical size of a kr8 style battery.

Think the cerut is fatter than the cigarillos there...
Hmm right between the tipped cigarillo and the cigar... If kept kinda short, I wonder what mAh it could be...
I'm really feelin' this idea...

 

[sooperdrave]

im thinking you could get 450-500mah out of a cigarillo size batt.

 

[Puff_N_Tampa]

....Ya I guess I was way off with 2x the dia. now that i look at it

Excellent glug usage!

Still might be 2x the area though, which would mean 640 mAh. Do that, add a clear tank cartomizer that gets covered when you put the unit together (and doesn't suffer from wicking issues), up the voltage a bit (though that might reduce the mAh), and there's one solid system.

From an math-guy standpoint, a cig is 7mm dia. so 3.5 Radius, cigarillo, 10mm dia. 5mm radius....Area of a circle is obviously pi*r^2...soooooo area of a cig is 38.48mm^2, and cigarillo 78.54mm^2

which does make the the cigarillo 2x the area of a cigarette! good call Caged!

 

[MichelleDen]

Caged, nono you.... not higher voltage.... eeek

 

[MichelleDen]

Yes I am bored.....my attempt to draw a comparison...... and a little fat carto with a kinda flat tip...
Got the riva wrong, its accually half a cm longer than I drew it.... oh well..
But I could really dig this... with some cool colours...or just some skins like I got on my riva..
Its small enough to be handled more like a cig, but still fat enough to stuff a good amount of mAh's in..
Could be awsome... The little auto is a Smoore, 7 cm.

I would consider this also, and for the same reason!

...If Bloog decides to stick with the same KR8 cartomizers, then I hope to see a higher voltage product (someone mentioned the Bloog cartos work well at 5 volts).

If you consider an 808 PT as a 'true 5v', then yeah, Bloog cartos smoke at 5v - nothing better IMO.

In any case, this thread is all in fun. I'm sure whatever Leaford comes up with will be great.

Leaf is a pretty amazing guy - and one of the most copied. They say that imitation is one of the finest forms of flattery -

To add to some of the other things I've heard rumor of - I would be interested in a superior CE2 'tank' 808 carto to have a fill-less carto - could be nice!

yearh but explain cool, tough and classy... how does that look? Ask 100 people and you will get 150 diff answers

Tough cool and classy is whatever I think it is....

What's wrong with high voltage?

 

[caged]

The more I think about this, the more I want a long life KR8 battery with voltage that matches the USB passthrough. I'm getting sick of waiting for slow chargers to charge up my small batteries. Extra large tank catomizers (that wick at least as well as the MaxxFusion cartos) would be great too.

A device that works as well as a USB passthrough that I could use anywhere I go would be really sweet.

After killing my first Bloog battery, which I *LOVED*, in less than a week (I refilled some cartos and suspect I might have overfilled one) I would mostly like to see a Bloog manual battery.

Something that would keep me going for an 8 hour shift at work, auto or manual, would be really nice, especially if it had the same outer coating as the current batteries.

Add in a hard case that could hold six cartos while still fitting in my pocket and I would be in heaven!

We're working on manual buttons for after CNY. And like everything else it will have the most innovative manual button o the market.
