Which to choose?

[Dj Xy]

I've been vaping for 2 months now, I've been very happy with the RN4081 using cartos ( atomizer and cartridges didn't work well for me even after cleaning the atomizer it still didn't compare to the cartos )
But I was considering getting another style PV which ones should I look into the will work as well or better than my RN4081?

Actually, having owned an RN4081 when I first started, I can tell you pretty much any of the models recommended by members here on ECF will work better. If you want a smaller unit the 510 or KR808 are much better, but suffer from the same short battery life as the RN. If you want to overcome this obstacle, a larger battery unit such as the eGo or Riva will help alleviate this problem. It's all about what you need. If you smoked more than about 1/2 pack a day I'd suggest something with a larger battery.

I smoked a pack a day, but as far as the battery life, using cartos one to two battery's last me all day, with an atomizer the battery life was drastically reduced.

i just started with ecigs for a week now but i got the eGo. I started with the carts and atty but the carts that came with it didnt wick right so mostly i dripped untill i got a few carto's and will be using them at work and still drip some at home.

Battery charge length
510 standard 180mah
RN4081 180mah
510 mega (xl) 280mah
KR808D-1 standard 280mah

So 510 mega (fairly long, makes about 125mm ecig with a carto), and KR8 standard (a bit fatter, about 120mm long) both would last about 1,5x as long as an RN4081 battery

The first things that I would consider are:
1)Size & Shape- Do you want a PV that is the approx size & shape of a traditional analog or are you looking to explore a bigger and less
2)Battery Life: How often and how much do you vape? All day away from home? Are you looking for a PV that has longer battery life than the RN4081 or has that been OK for you? Have you thought about trying a higher voltage? Maybe 5 volts?
3)Cartos or attys? Sounds like you prefer the cartomizer. That should help you rule out the others.

What is the main reason you want to get a different PV? Are there some things that you want to improve on in comparison to the RN4081?

I know I'm answering your question with questions, but IMHO, that's what you need to do. Ask your self these questions.
Maybe make a list. Things you like and dislike about the PV you currently have. Most folks that enjoy the vaping experience usually end up buying 3 or 4 models before really settling in on one in particular.

Good luck in your search for the next PV!

I just went from a RN4081 w/ cartos to a KR808D-1 w/ standard battery and cartos . So far, I'm pleased with the switch. Check out LiteCigUSA good prices and fast delivery............

Thanks for all the suggestions, after hearing what people had to suggest and doing research I went with the Ego, which I just got in the mail today, I'm very pleased with it and think I made a good choice.

Ego/tornado is definitely the right next step from a 4081.. its what i did
