What's the shortest model of KR808 D-1 compatible battery?

[Blair]

I'm wondering what is the smallest battery that works with the KR808D-1 chargers, PCC, and cartomizers. It seems like when I first bought them, they came in very small sizes and the length was about the length of a regular cig. Now I'm almost out of those and every place I go to sells much longer batteries but labels them the "small" size.

Here's a picture comparison:

Do they still make those smaller ones or is only the 100 length now?

On the first page of this thread you can see the 3 different battery sizes:

I use my 510 batteries with an adapter. The 510 PCC will hold a battery, one cartomizer with the adapter, and two more cartomizers without adapters. It measures in at 11 cm, 1 cm shorter than the standard KR-808. There is a different adapter that is even shorter. I find the cartomizers vape very nicely on a 510 battery.

I had recently purchased several batteries from VK and none of them seemed to have any inhale ability so I returned them. Does anyone else make or sell the "shorty" size?

Maybe check litecig? A friend ordered from them and they were short but I'd email them to be sure. Nhaler also has them listed in the drop down menu. Those are two that come to mind.

Actually nhaler is a perfect example of this... Last month I ordered 3 "small" batteries and the size I received is the longer one you see in the photograph. "Small" is a relative term.

Ok, good to know. I do know litecig sold my friend some small auto batts. It wasn't too long ago. I'll keep my eye out for others.

Besides Nhaler and Vapor4Life, what are some other companies you've tried to find them at?

mist-stix, lecig, and another I cannot recall. Man I really want one and I cannot imagine that others wouldn't as well. I'm surprised there's not more people wanting these short batteries.

I would definitely check w/ litecig. I like the performance of the regular size batt but can see why some would like the smaller one too.

I got a manual battery in a kit from liteecigusa that measures 2 5/8 inches. with an adapter fromhealthcabin.nt it measures2 7/8 inches. It is a 901. With the cartomizer it measures 4 inches

The smallest ecig I have is the E-8 from ecig.com. With cartomizer, it measures 3 1/4 inches. Pretty good vapor, but I would not recommend it. They are so small that eliquid kills batteries in a couple of weeks.

For my preference with my e-cigs, the number one priority is small size followed closely by convenience and ease of use. My main reason for sticking with the KR808 is that it's good on the go for heading out to bars and such without having to worry about toting a ton of accessories and parts.

My dream e-cig is a battery and cartomizer combo that looks and is the exact same size as a real cigarette (other problem with VK shorty... it's covered in crazy logos). I'm actually not a huge fan of being gawked at or discussing the e-cig with other smokers at bars anymore. It's actually like having people watch you eat.

I tolerate the slightly longer KR808 battery but it's hard to hold in your lips and looks a bit funny. Ideally I'd be able to find some of the short ones again.

Hey 'Blair', this thread in litecig's subforum is about how their KR808 batts are indeed short. Seems like the manual's are a little tricky to fit in the PCC (the autos are not, fit well).

Hope that helps!
