I started with the Joye 510, which was about the size of a real cigarette, and eventually moved up to the monster Joye Ego with the Twist 1000mAh battery. It's way better than the old, small 510. However, I'd like to get another small, 510 sized, automatic ecig for taking out to bars, restaurants, and the like. I'm sure there have been huge advancements over the 510 I bought years ago. Can anyone give me some pointers, or suggestions, on some models to look at? Any help is greatly appreciated!

I strongly recommend the Halo Element battery. Bought it and the volt and side by side it blew away the Volt for me and wife both. I simply can not imagine a better one. The manual one rocks! I think they go for $14.99 but worth every penny.

Thanks! That's much cheaper than buying a whole Volt kit. I'll see if I can find a good deal on one.

That is interesting. What model is the Halo Element?

Just looked, it appears to me to be a 510 e-cig. Perhaps the difference you found was the "no cutoff" on the manual battery.

The manual battery does make it better but I ordered my kit with one manual and one auto battery since it was my first setup and I did not know which style I would like better. Even the Element auto battery seemed to have more kick to it than the Volt did. I am not knocking the Volt by any means, but for us the halo was a superior product.

I love my twists...but I'm thinking of getting a volt or something similar so I can be a little more stealth in mixed company. There are times you just don't want to call attention to yourself, you know?
I'm just worried that I won't get enough power from a cig size model, since I'm so used to the power I get from the twist. Any thoughts or advice would be welcomed...and appreciated!
