Oh.... just to say. I am a light Vaper; a sort of self-confessed "do everything in moderation" type of boring middle-aged Mr average. I would love an e-roll, but even as a light vaper, I'd need to carry around a minimum of 4 of those stupid little cartridges and the atomizers really are too expensive to put up with. I can vape for a whole day on ONE battery and ONE Kanger mini protank. (not including the evening.... ) e-roll is great....but don't expect it to be less hassle than JacVapour, 'coz it won't. There are whole forums devoted to it in the US. People love it.... the very same people who were smoking 5-10 "lights" a day, most probably. Fair play to them....but not for me.

Thank you for all the suggestions, looks like I have a bit of research to do! I had seen the totally wicked ego slim and the I clear and they were too big for me, I don't mind charging and changing carts but just not impressed with having to buy new batteries and blank carts so often. Pity there is not a tank that is the size of a real cig. X

The trouble is sassy81 that every time you have to recharge a battery, it shortens it overall life. hence why the larger batteries not only last far longer between recharges, but will also need replacing far less often. And they will easily deal with the LR cartomisers you have been using. On the other hand anything LR on a cigalike will just drain the battery so quickly, it will end up killing it.

[b Strange my sky cig batteries lasted a whole year though but jac vapour about 2 months, wonder if the e liquid is to blame as sky cig batteries were fine up till I started using it hmmm lol think I will definitly have to go for some kind of tank system now just to find the smallest slimmest one xx

But you weren't using the low resistance (LR) cartomisers with your Skycig & that's what would make a lot of difference. The Low resistance cartos aren't meant to be used with any of the ciggie sized batteries as they drain them far to quickly & can even kill the low mAh batteries.

Hi I think the best PCC kit you can get at the moment is the eRoll you can charge it without having to unscrew anything just slot it in to the charger when your done. since I got one I have put away all my other mods and tanks. The case looks like a Iphone .
I know a lot of people will jump on this saying cigalikes are rubbish but these hit the spot for me good vape no problem charging and the pcc charge lasts me all day. I have every mod there is out the from vamos to itaste 134 you name it I have it draws full of tanks and cupboards'full of evods. The mods in the last few month have been getting bigger and heavier give it another year it will be a backpack for the batteries with a ten gallon juice tank
A weekend away was starting to get daft with all the spares and chargers and now its just the eRoll and innokin Ucan

I think you've been very lucky for any cig-a-like battery to last a whole year. Maybe their cartos are really high resistance or something? It can't be the juice broke your batteries - that's science/common sense. An EVOD or CE5 is actually no longer than a carto with a drip-tip. (You've probably not used a drip-tip with your cig-a-likes, but again, it improves the vape )

Yes I never thought about low resistance carts, it was just the standard ones I had when I first got my jac vapour kit, I may goback to customer service they have been great I had a faulty battery which was replaced, a few dodgy carts so they sent me out a new pack so maybe just standard carts I need lol The e roll does look more like the kind of thing I would like and I wouldn't say I'm a heavy vaper well maybe when I'm stressed... The reason I thought it may be the liquid is there was never any residue from pre filled carts (I was trying to be careful with filling but there was always a little liquid on battery when I changed carts) Anyone tried the vapestick? I had looked at this, but decided to go with jac vapour as it had great reviews. Sarah x

Sarah x I wouldn't waste my time or money with any of these cigalikes Sarah, you're never going to get as satisfying a vape and always be limited as to what you can use them with. Fine as an emergency back up or to give you a feel of how great vaping can be with some decent kit. But that's it for me when there's so much better available. I wish they had been about when I started vaping.

I had looked at this, but decided to go with jac vapour as it had great reviews. Sarah x Maybe you should consider the e-roll then. I still think having all those cartridges is going to drive you mad....it was bad enough with 2 or 3 JacVapour cartomisers filling up the PCC case. Needless to say, a product like Vapestick is a total waste of money. It would be like driving a clapped out Romanian banger after the BMW of JacVapour. My missus had some. Pathetic e-cig, maybe as pathetic as E-Lites. OR, just maybe, you should consider finding another source for the 808 batteries for your JacVapour kit. If you could get a few at a good price... ???

Thanks karma, it it roughly the same size as my current e cig? That's what I meant about a super duper e cig tank lol I had looked at an e go-t just trying to find sizes, I have wee hands and face so would feel a bit daft using anything bigger out doors anyway suppose I could just keep jac vapour for that thou x
