Upgrade from e-go style to a light saber?

I'm currently using an e-go style and spinner but feel I'm not getting the full effect of the great juices I bought. I've watched reviews and read a lot but still not sure. I don't feel confident enough rebuilding a bunch of stuff or dripping. What would be a happy medium between the spinner and a adv that looks like a light saber?

How about an innokin Itaste vv v3? That was my first step up. I use mine with a Protank 3.

I'm also looking for a light saber. Right now I, considering a Joytech Evic or an iTaste SVD. The Vamo V5 looks good too. I purchased the vv v3 earlier this week. It's nice however I went from green to yellow in 135 puffs today. I am looking for a bigger setup at home and to just use the vv v3 during my commute.

In the beginning they seem big but once you use it you definately appreciate the features and benifits.

The sigelie zmax v3 or v5 is one of the shortest vv/vw tube mods at any battery size. Also very durable full stainless construction, including the 510/ego threads.. It can also telescope from 18650 to 18350 for a compact mod. Many people use an 18500 for longer life and still being compact. 2nd to that your next option is the innokin MVP 2..... Or above all- a reo is what you may be looking for.

I'm looking forward to the Vamo v5.. I just ordered it friday with a Protank 2. time for the Smok tech to be the back up :)

I love mine. Just a tip though the 510 threads are a bit wonky. All Vamos have that issue. I picked up a 510 airflow controller to fix that issue. I only use 18350s in mine. The mod is way too long with a 18650 in it. LOL! I would suggest getting 2 AW IMR 18350 batteries for it so you have back up
 
I'm thinking anything that looks like a box isn't where I'm headed either. I will definitely check out all suggestions!

Side by side comparison is helpful. It seemed so much bigger in my mind.

That's what I thought, too. That ProVari replaced that Ego Twist, and I never regretted my decision. Battery life is also twice as long. The Vamo is bigger that the ProVari, and I don't know about the other ones that were mentioned.

My first mod was a SVD. If you keep it in 18350 mode, it's quite pocketable. I'm 18650 mode, it is truly the size of a lightsaber and I wouldn't want to take it anywhere. The thing I really like about the SVD, when compared to an eGo twist, I got a consistent vape from a fully charged cell, all the way to flashing red. With the eGo twist, I could taste the drop in voltage as the battery waned, even if it was still on the same setting.

With that in mind, I run with a Provari Mini now in 18350 mode. It is the perfect mod for me to vape on, then drop into my pocket and forget about.

Unfortunately, the way of the Jedi, one must shape and form their own crystal for the lightsaber to function properly. Same thing with mods. The better the build the better the vape. A batt just supplies power, the atomizer creates the vape. Bring the two together in harmony is the name of the vape game.

Just upgrading your atomizer may bring your vape up to the level you are looking for. To get the most out of a mod, regulated or mechanical, then building is the path, though one can still decent vape using a changeable like the Aspire Nautilus, or carto tank like IBtanked or something like that.

Vape long and Prosper.!!!!

I looked at the mini moline today. I like it but I kinda wanted one with vw and vv. have you missed the vw at all?
