The Epetite is the same width as my Radi, but lacks the rounded corners! So it does feel clunkier, IMHO. I Think that's why so many of us like the Jac Vapor rounded corners that just blend into the hand.

Truth.

You lot are making it hard not to buy a jac

I'll just watch.

@Krisma you will love Jac! I want to see if you can use your talents on the mod door?

Hmmm..... Kat and I have a "date" with a prominent skin maker later today, but THIS is a most interesting scenario too!

I get that sort of mild soreness with a really small mod. Bigger mods don't make you crunch your fist down so much. Mostly for me, it's about the thumb angle on the fire button. Ergonomics does count! Repetitive motion injuries can be painful.

For me, that's one of Jackie's biggest draws. It fits perfectly, and my thumb naturally lays across the fire button.

These things are all matters of preference and opinion though, so mileages vary.

Sorry it took so long to answer you.

I was referring to the provaping vs antivaping thread for which you gave us a link.

I know, Bea. That was me being a wise :censored: (hence the laughy-thingie).

I'm surprised you're not used to that by now. ;) :D

here's an excerpt from what I do to keep track - too old, not enuff mind left to keep up with the vape inventory... :confused: :w00t: :D
That looks a lot like mine. Except I don't include mods because I move tanks around on different mods a lot.

I use a file with seven variable components (Financials, Devices, Coils, Juice, etc..) and 14 separate tabs. Some information ties back to other sheets, and some remains independent.

There's probably a name for what I've got (besides, "Batspit crazy"). :unsure:

I had a couple of Sigelei 30's when I started vaping, think they are still around in a box somewhere. Apart from crappy 510's that got looser and looser, they have really square edges. They also ate batteries. Sometimes the display would stay on the dim setting indefinitely until the battery went down to 2 volts and I had to dump them.

I find the rounded shape of Isticks and Picos more comfortable.

I tend to rest my mods on my pinkie when I'm holding them. Does everyone do that? Apart from Spinners which are too long for that to work. My only gripe with the Pico is they are so short that I have to bend my thumb right over to hit the button. All the other mods I have my thumb can stay straight.

Precisely.

The Pico works for me because it's so light, so the pinky almost isn't required. But as a rule, yes. Pinky stabilizes, thumb fires. Lefty, mostly.

I pretty much do that to.

I am particularly fussy and have really small (puny hands and it was too deep (thick) for me to hold comfortably and fire without stress. Its a good mod but not for me. Its not alone..... a lot of great mods were bought to try and passed on quickly. It was snapped up and will be appreciated by its new owners.
I have tiny hands too. I'm looking forward to seeing reviews and RL pics of the Lost Vape Coral which is coming out this month. It's 65mm high. I'll probably get it. Ihave a 65mm mod and the size is so perfect - but the Coral seems bulkier in the other 2 dimensions which worries me.

It seems to me that many mods are being made unnecessarily thick to accommodate bigger tanks. Add in squared off edges and a good hand feel is off the table. I'm anticipating my single battery VTC Minis coming in will not feel as comfortable as my dual battery rounded mods. Pretty much anything that can handle a 25mm atty is too big for me.

In my experience, and YMMV, anything with 4 posts is for DTL, and it may be just ok for mtl. I stick with strictly MTL tanks as that's how I vape. These dual purpose tanks just don't do it for me.
What do you like that's small and has a glass tank. This is the only thing on my shopping list.
I wish it was smaller.

Ok, I looked at the post again…I see it now :blush:. When I first read it I was trying to skim through 46 posts :shock: (don't tell @Katdarling…I don't want demerits :cry:)

I do that with my Provari.

I reckon I shoulda thought that one out a bit more comprehensively. :facepalm:
