Two things I would like to see.

[HazMatt]

Here are a couple products I would like to see in the world of e-cigs:

First, I would like to see VV "Twist" style ego batteries that are shorter and fatter. Imagine a 1300mAh Spinner that is the length of a current 650mAh Twist. Or a 900mAh Winder that is as long as a 400mAh Spinner. They could be about the width of a Vamo or Provari but, lighter in weight.

While around town or at work, I like to wear my VV egos, on a lanyard, around my neck. I love the length of the 400mAh Spinner and 650mAh Twist but, I want longer battery life. A 1300mAh Spinner, on my lanyard, nearly hangs down to my bellybutton.

Second, I want a full function, non battery, PT that plugs directly into a power outlet, not a USB connection. Something with VV, VW, >3 amp limit, and an ohm tester. It should also be hand filling, at least 4 inches tall and maybe as big around as a 18650 mod. It should have a base that prevents it from being easily tipped over. The cord should be AT LEAST 6 feet long.

I love the idea of using a PT while around the house. I have tried a couple USB PTs and the cord pulled loose from both of them. They are so small that my hand would wrap around the cord and I inadvertently pulled on the cords. I want something with good build quality. I would like a PT that is fully adjustable, not just a few steps of adjustment.

Do you like these ideas? Do you have something you would like to see in the vape world. Maybe we can give manufacturers some ideas to play with.

As for the passthrough, here is one that has most of your desired features:
The Pearl PT
no VW, but it is VV, good sized, and meant to be plugged into a wall, 10ft cord.

uses 16340's.. VV(sorta..)

My two things:

A battery that can solar charged or charged by placing it on a table that has a charging station (this also applies to my cell phone).

The other would be a battery that has two chambers built in the bottom or top for you to put your juice in put a tip on the top and then vape...No clearo or tank required. The two tanks would allow you to put two flavors in that you could switch between the two.

I have seen them before and they definitely looks better than the cheap USB PTs. I may have to give one of them a try. I would still like the addition of VW, an ohm tester, and a built in base.

A solar powered charging or charging plate compatible battery and a dual tank hybrid. I like both ideas.

Maybe a shorter lanyard would help?

I would like to see more PV's like the iTaste MVP. That form factor with more options on battery mAh size, and VW and ohm check.

Like ISMK iGo 4 Touch Charger E-Cigarette Starter Kit

It's $90 for 2 X 750 mAh batteries and 2 CE4's so it's not cheap, but it has a magnetic base where you simply stand your ecig on it and it charges.

Your post reminds me of my next project. Once all the parts come in, I'm going to build a modular PV box with a Vamo board. It'll have connections for attachment to my battery boxes and external power. I was thinking about mating it with this to create an awesome at-home vaping experience.

That sounds awesome! A Vamo board plugged into a wall outlet. Let me know how it turns out.

but putting your battery in direct sunlight will dramatically heat it up, shortening battery life

also those little solar cells would take a few days to charge a 650 lol

but if this is just fantasy...sure that would be cool....

..id like one with a kinetic perpetual generator...like they have in watches

 

[HazMatt]

Any more ideas?

 

[Hippieangst]

What about a PV the size of a MVP that is a MP3 player as well...vape while rockin out to Smoke on the Water.

The solar charging concept is a good one, but the panels needed to charge even a 650mAh battery would either be too large to be practical or take too long to be worthwhile.

 

[Tempus Fugit]

How about something like those hand-crank flashlights or radios, where you could turn the crank for a couple of minutes to get 10 or 12 drags? This would be great in a pinch for a backup when batteries are all dead or inaccessible. Might be a little on the big side right now though.

 

[HazMatt]

I don't know if solar or hand crank charging.would have enough potential customers to gain intrest from manufacturers.

While the MVP does not have a built in MP3 player, you can recharge your MP3 by plugging it into your MVP.

Im not really likeing the looks of this to much(idea is cool tho) but that stand is pretty slick looking.

Both solar and Generic hand cranks with usb charging ports are already on the market; take a look around for emergency or preparedness products. They'll be slow,, but they'll work. Heck, I've got an emergency flashlight / radio with a power-out option. It's meant to charge a phone, but any port in a storm....

I am excited by the pending release of the Kanger ProTank V2. I would like to see a more slender version. One that is the diameter of an ego battery.

PS
I intended to post in this thread a couple times each day. However, work got in the way. Last week was hectic.
