i make my stuff at 18mg or even 12 now - but was at 24 for months - when i first quit Marlboros i just vaped 36mg straight from the bottle it came in!

I typically carry 2 spare batteries with me (one for each Reo) and a spare ready-to-go RM2 in my computer case. Small bottle of juice and i'm good all day.

Office desk drawer: everything you need to make a jerry-rigged wick and coil! multimeter, dental pick, cotton ball, emery board. noalox,screwdriver. I have never had to use it but it comforts me that if my house burns down when i am at work, i can carry on vaping, but will have to find a new wife!

I'm asking because I have the mini 14500 and am concerned now about how long a battery is going to last. Guess I won't be sub-ohming it or I'll have to have a ton of batteries with me.

Typical day is to ride to work gaping one mod and then swapping to another while at work. Typically a 10 minute break then 30 minute lunch followed by another 10 minute. I might get one or two quickies in if I'm lucky. Then the ride home. The vamo in 650 mode is in pocket while working. The other goes from car to locker and is the "in car vape".
Dunno if the 14500 is going to handle that much.
Guess I'll have to keep the vamo as backup.

Tips/suggestions/recommendations would be fabulous. (will be using RM2)

Yeah, these are what I use. 18650, bottle of juice and a bit of cotton above it. No larger than necessary.

I have those too :) I use them to keep the batteries I'm *not* using "in order". Each of mine is numbered so I can cycle through them giving each it's fair share of duty. The case I linked to in my first post, is for carrying a spare battery and juice when I go out. I do that because sometimes I'm too lazy to put in a fresh battery or bottle in, in the morning, and suddenly need to run out in the middle of the day. I've never had a battery "die" on me, but down below about 3.8 volts, I lose some of the warmth of the vape, and like to change when it hits that point. The extra juice is...well, just in case.

I like that idea of keeping track of my batteries BUT i will use letters not numbers :)
