That was the very thing that made me quit the e-cig a couple of years ago. Whether it was the battery, or the juice, it never failed....something would run out at an inopportune time. The main reason I even picked up the e-cig back then, was because I was going on a lot of aircraft test-flights that would last anywhere from 2 hours to 12 hours. Without the e-cig for several of us, some of those flights probably wouldn't have landed safely.2 1/2 weeks, no analogs but I sure do miss the simplicity of it sometimes.
But on the ground, it was easier to pull out an analog, and fire it up.However, this time around, I'm getting it down to a science, so it's much easier to stick with.
I tried a manual battery, and I still prefer auto batteries as well. I smoked an average of 2 pad for 15 years. I loved smoking. I loved holding a cigarette. I loved the resistance you'd get from taking a drag. The only thing I hated about smoking, was the health issues. The auto battery is the closest thing to actually smoking that I've used. While I may one day grow past the auto batteries, right now I have no desire in vaping from a shoebox with a mouthpiece, or putting a half-gallon of e-juice in a Camelback and connecting it to a battery and an atomizer.One more Volt question from me: In the reviews of the Smokeless Image new sealed auto batteries, people are complaining that they can't get good drags off them compared to the old, unsealed ones. Anyone here agree/disagree with that? I prefer auto style batteries to manual (tried both options with my Joye 510) so if their auto batteries aren't good I probably won't bother.
