If you order a Chuck with a 510 battery connector, you can use all of your 510 atomizers and carts with it. All you would need are batteries and a charger.

I'm sure the answer to my question is somewhere in the forums but I have yet to find it. I am considering a chuck but other than having to purchase the battery for it, where do I get the atty and other supplies. I have a 510 and a 401 now. Can I use my 510 atty's and carts? Sorry bout the ignorance but I'm still new to this vaping. After 40yrs of analog smoking, e-cigs have changed my life. haven't smoked a real cig in 3 weeks which is a miracle for me. The 510 and 401 have worked well for me but there are those times when I really need the throat hit and I think the chuck could do that for me.
I want to be ready so when I do get my chuck, I'll have everything I need. Thanks for any help.

The Chuck diameter is bigger than some mods, but it will take a 18350 battery fo 3.7v vaping as well as the 16340. The 18350, tho, is unprotected.
No need to use unprotected batteries unless you want to.
The most common battery for the Chuck at 3.7V is the 18650 and mine are protected..

Those skins look great!
I don't believe those are what you would normally call "skins" though.

Those designs that you see on the Chucks are custom graphics and powder coat paint jobs.
And they are permanent, and by that I do mean permanent.

You'd probably need a belt-sander to put a scratch in the clear powder coat that covers them.

Sorry I have heard of a Chuck. But that was after I seen a bunch of stupid looking things I would never use. If it didn't resemble a cigarette it was of no interest to me, so I didn't pay much attention. Just like most of the public. I was a karaoke host. I couldn't walk around the bar with one of those. It would be kind of hard to walk around in walmart with one of those too. Boxes and bulky things turn me off. "What to do on a Saturday" for a title just never grabbed me. So I never really paid any attention. I thought it was some guy fixing his car or something. I have only been vaping a month. Not even. The 30th will be a month. All I ever owned was a 510. The only posts I really follow are Eclypse. This pic does look neat. I had seen them I just didn't know it was a chuck.

I thought the same thing, I didn't want anything that didn't resemble an actual cig. But after reading the threads and seeing how much people liked it I broke down, made a design, and bought a chuck. I love it, I have a one V4L Kr808D-1 manual battery, Two Nebula batteries, and a couple PT's. I don't use any of them anymore, unless I will be drinking (don't wanna accidentally drop my chuck or anything lol), although they are great vaping tools, the throat hit + flavor of a chuck surpasses them by far. It's not too bulky, fits in the pocket pretty good and provides a very good vaping experience for me.

Everybody's different and everybody will probably tell you something different, but in the end it's all about personal preference.
