Video games are my favorite way to spend my free time, mostly PC games with the occasional console game. Although looking up and buying vaping stuff is quickly taking up more and more of my time. :)
My problem is this, its kind of hard to vape with a manual battery while you are playing games where both of your hands are constantly busy. I've spent the past couple days looking up auto batteries and all I could find were some eGo style stuff, which might end up being what I use.
Are there any auto mods? It would be really nice to slap a giant dc carto tank on something and vape without hands.

Try an auto battery on a passthrough and rig it some how maybe to a laynard to hang on your neck then all you have to do is tilt your face down to inhale (mind you need to make the laynard the correct length). Or maybe rig it like tape it onto a stand of some sorts and place it on your gamming desk. I know sounds silly but Im 100% serious! Im an ex-WoW player myself so I could imagine myself doing something similiar. :2cool:

Yeah, get a cigalike passthrough with an auto switch (hard to find but I saw one the other night, if I find it again I'll post a link), get a mic stand, attach passthrough to stand, add tank with adapters/etc, vape (and game) on! I thought about doing something similar myself but now I just keep an auto cigalike perched between two fingers while holding my mouse, I find I can play fine and when there's a lull in the action I'll take a few drags.

Lol, yeah could definitely see myself doing that while playing WoW. (ex-WoW player as well :p)

eGo style and cig-a-likes were the only autos I found, some of the stuff I want to vape wouldn't work on those though so I'm looking for other solutions. Holding a cig-a-like might work but I think it would get in the way of me pressing the buttons on the side of my mouse.

If I'm playing a single player game: I hit the pause button. Multi-player: I take a drag while I'm waiting to respawn. MMO in a group: I just wait for a convenient time to just hold down 'W' while I take a drag.
In single player games I haven't really had a problem, pause buttons. :p Multiplayer and fast paced games are where I'm having an issue. When I'm playing Civ5 for instance, there is no problem but something like Deadspace or SC2, I don't want to stop and vape.

I could slave up a servo to push the button for you using a USB control board and you could hotkey it in the PC :p
I might end up doing that. Will probably end up being a perfect example of over-engineering but it would be a lot of fun setting up.

Wait until respawn, n00b.

J----------K, what do you play bro?

EDIT: Just read some of what you play.
Looking forward to BF4?

Yeah I could see if you were in a heated SC2 match catching a drag would be a little inconvenient. Just wait till the match is over or until there's a lull in the match I guess. Isn't there a type of respawn timer in Deadspace? I liked the first, hated the 2nd so I don't play that series anymore. My usual multiplayer consists of BF3 and TF2. If not that then everything else is Guild Wars 2 or Pinball FX. :D
I did just get Dishonored and the new Tomb Raider during the Steam sale for real cheap, and that's it...I'm done! Just two games this summer....do you hear me Steam! ONLY TWO! Oh look...Dark Souls for $7.50. my wallet damns you steam

    Im also a Pc Enthusiat/Overclocker/Gamer/Vaper

    Right now, its mostly Battlefield 3. But also along with my gaming, I am a SimRacer. Ive got a seperate dedicated rig and custombuilt cockpit just for iRacing. Very addictive, VERY fun. When Im racing, I use my Blu Premium100 Battery and either use my own carto, or last night I threw and Evod on using a 510-510/Ego adaptor. Looks kinda silly, but, especially with a carto, I can just reach over slightly and grab the "cig" when I get on a straightaway, and if I come up on a turn before Im done, holding it in my mouth like a cig for a couple corners isn't impossible. When races are 45-70minutes in length, this is the only option. I make sure the battery if freshly charged, and it works alright.


    When Im on my gaming rig, like right now(queing for a server on BF3), I just have my Vamo right in front of me, and grab it as desired. Respawns, Map Changes etc etc.

    Im not really proud of my stats on BF3, but I will admit, I hadn't played a PC FPS in a long time before BF3. I was just doing other gaming.

    But, I also dont want to reset my stats. Ive gotten to the point now, where I was back in the day, at least I think so. I can hold my own.

    I really love flying the Attack Choppers, I fancy myself a decent pilot.. But, my opinion, the #1 thing about being a good chopper pilot? Comms with your gunner. If you guys aren't talking, might as well equip fire extinguisher instead of counter measures, because you're going to die instantly anyway.

    Well, considering the triple digit hours I have on BC1 with no pilot and BC2 with my current BF3 pilot...its like breathing. And when you know the map structures and base placements well? Just rage quit and save your K/D!! HA!
