When am I ready for a BIG version?

[smckech1972]

Just would like some feedback on what makes people to decide to move up to the chuck, or others with the large batteries.

Is it so it lasts longer, gives a better vape, better taste?

Thank you.

Its a bigger battery. It lasts longer. And when you go beyond 3.7 volts things start to happen. One of them is going through more attys.

High volt rules with big vape that rivals any analog.

Is it so it lasts longer
Yes, a 14500 lasts most of the day, no need for PCCs or Passtroughs.
gives a better vape, better taste?
Not so much better (@ 3.7v) but more consistent. Your regular ecig batteries quickly diminish in efficiency when you start using them. The big bat mod will last a few hours before you see diminished quality of vape.

Hope this helps.

Enough is good more is better and too much is Just Right

I think the taste is better plus more vapor. Also at 6 volts it is a better experience, more like a smoke, don't have to hit as long cause to vapor production is more. I use cartos though and they like high voltage. I don't know about cartridges. My son gets a great hit with 3.7 volts.

I'd been vaping for maybe 10 days when I decided to order a big (6v) Chuck. I love vaping on my PT at 5v - and after 5v I got spoiled fast - though the 3.7 batteries are ok, I want the higher voltage without being tied to a computer or wall outlet.

I use KR808 cartos from V4L, and they are wonderful at 5v, and I've heard that they love 6v as well, so I'm really really psyched about getting my Chuck

Everything is just all around better.
The big plus is not having to charge batteries everytime you turn around.

Another plus is not having to purchase so many battery replacements. Back when I was using standard batteries, I kept about ten that would charge and replaced two or three of them per month. Since I got my Prodigy, I have four 18650 batteries that I rotate, and I haven't had to replace one once so far.

So does the eGo fit into this category ? I'm seriously reading everything I can about them now; still love my 510, but the battery issue is ridiculous.

The big battery mods still require an atty and most of them use a 510. I use the 510 on my BB and the 801 with adapter on my SB. The advantage of the mods is much longer lasting batteries which means more consistent vapor. The eGo/Tornado is a bigger battery but I believe it is still closer to a stock battery than a mod. That is my opinion and others may feel differently. I really like being able to buy my batteries from places like Battery Junction or Deal Extreme where they are very inexpensive.
