All my cartos and tanks are, like yours, in a drawer. A few PTs and T3S still out, started building on those tiny heads ;) Built right - which of course varies according to personal taste and style - they can provide an acceptable tootle. And a mess of Spinner types in the 1300 and up range. Good setup for when activity might endanger the mod. Or just for when you want something lightweight.

Shoulda used 1300 Spinners, and gotten a few long hours? ;)

Who knows. At this point, I'm happy with my mechs and RSSTs. Although, I'd love someone to come out with something easier along the lines of the cigalikes for ease of use, but longer lasting. Something like this looks promising, but I'd have to see what the actual price point is for the device as well as the refills. Something Else. Something Better | XOLO Vape

I'm one of those that really hates having to rebuild and would prefer to be able to fill and go. Sure, I use rebuildables due to the cost consideration as buying new coils tends to add up, especially if you switch flavors on a regular basis. But I do long for something better than a cigalike but is just as easy to use.

Now, that XOLO is interesting.

Off to research.

Reminds me of a Juul variant. Are the carts refillable, because the press release and video make it sound like "curated" flavors is what will be offered? Also wonder if that "strong enough" to help stop smoking means a very high nic content.

It looks like a simple AIO, but if you're stuck with their cartos only, not sure I get the advantage. Then again, the inventor thought a mod with a Nauti on top was too complicated, so I guess super simplicity was the goal.

Having never used a JUUL (can't get 'em up here), I wouldn't be able to make a valid comparison. I have heard they have a tendency to leak, so that pretty much counts that option out in my book. And the pods are rather pricey, too, for the amount of e-liquid they contain.

I was only comparing them because both seem like upgraded cigalikes with a nicer industrial design but still relying on prefilled cartridges. And I do get the convenience of it. there have certainly been times such as traveling something like that would have been great. Les mess, less fuss. But for times like those I have my little Plato. Same sorta look to the XOLO with clean lines, but an internal tank I can fill with whatever I want.

Sure, I have to care for it, replace the coil now and then, but having come from a cigalike when I first stopped smoking I really don't want to ever be locked in to a "preselected" limited liquid again. But I'm sure there's a good market for a product like this.

I looked at the Juul for my holiday, sighs....yup, I'm still trying to find (well I may have found it) a setup to have with me out and about, I don't wanna have to be carrying a heavy mod with me. The Sigelei 213 was a not for me, I never like talking bad about products to much but I was getting a lot of misfires and then the screen scrambled, refund.
So just going back to the JUUL, it's a nice concept but I heard drawing too hard can make them leak and the refills a little expensive, I'd probably go through two a day, it does remind me of an apple product though ha.

Continuing my travel vape, I have bought another Pico, which made Emma shake her head because I have 10 of them already but but, this was the all blacked out version, it looks superb, I bought the kit this time with the black melo 3 mini, I can use the melo coils or throw in my fav prebuilt triton clapton coils in it.......I also have the option if I don't like the Melo to put my black super tank mini on there.

Either way time is running out, I go away in less than 2 weeks :eek:

When I'm traveling I take NJOY Kings with me. The 36mg does me right and I don't have to worry about customs "loosing" my gear. If I'm going for an extended trip I just mail myself some gear or buy something locally.

NJOY are also good for weddings and the like where I would have to put something in my pocket. I hate having heavy things in my pockets.


Edit: why not take a pico?

For those of you still interested in easy and non-rebuildable take-anywhere stuff, have you looked at the Vapor4Life stuff? About the size of a small cigar, pre-filled cartridges (but you can refill them yourself up to the point where the coil or wick get too gunked). The battery portion comes as either a non-adjustable (no VV or VW) push-button or suction-activated like a real cigar would be (I have both through contest winnings). I keep their tobacco flavor (WOW brand) in these for a few hits in the evening. The mouthpiece is rounded with a soft rubbery feel, so it even has a cigar-like feel and you can bite it without damage (in the event you want to hold it in your teeth and not in your hand). Because I only use these for less than an hour per night, the battery charge lasts about a week (standard USB feed-through charge). Worth a look?

Too bad the Sigeleis' didn't work out. Still tough to knock that little Pico for size and value. As long as you can live with the atty size limit.

Takes my 22 mm KFs nicely. Wider attys will, of course, have some overhang.

Pico and the Super tank mini are amazing, always loved the super tanks, got chopdoc onto them with the Triton Claptons, then rta's and rdta's came on the scene and I forgot about it.
What can I say, that's a great travel mod and it's been here the whole time, then I saw a blacked out Pico and well, me being me had to have one, got a fantastic deal where the kit with the Melo 3 worked out the same price as just the mod so I bought it. Then I had to scratch that itch regarding the cCell SS coils, thought I'd give them a whirl, either way, I should get a good combo out of this lot lol

The blacked out looks really nice. Just got the brushed silver/SS one in the mail and am very happy. Wrapped my other Pico in that black leather wrap, left the top and bottom silver, and have 2 nice looking tiny mods.

And yes, whenever I scan some site and see that Limitless Plus I can't help but think, maybe I should give it a spin.
