Need small solution for daily use and travelling

W

wadid

Hi,
I want to stop smoking and I go travelling for a month in ten days. Now I am looking for a compact solution which I can use for travelling and daily use, can carry without problems in my pocket and which lasts me one or two days. It would be good if I can change the batteries and if i have a microusb to plug in my 5000 mah powerbank (maybe even fast charge is possible?). Passthrough would be good also.

Is there anything out there which suits my needs?
Regards,
wadid

I'm sure you'll get a lot of suggestions mine is the Eleaf Pico. Sounds like it will fill your needs and you can get it with or without the Melo tank that uses Aspire style coils. About 30 bucks without and 40 with tank (My Vapor Store). I have charged mine in the car and used it pass-through when I forgot the take a spare battery. The only downside to the Pico is you can't go bigger than a 22mm atty.

The only things I know if with rapid charging are
- vaporshark
Dna4o
Rdna40- 40w DNA mods both the rDNA has a changeable 18650. I can't in good concious suggest those
Dna133 flask - dual 18650 2a rapid charging and dna133 board
Dna200 3s lipo 2a rapid charging 200w


Lots of other capable mods but rapid charging is a little uncommon

vaporshark dna40/kfunmini v3, provape Procyon/kayufun v5, vaporflask133/kayfunv5
vaporsharkdna200/petri v2

IMO, the Eleaf Pico Kit, and the Evic VTC Mini Kit are excellent beginner mods, with some room to grow. I own both of them.

I have heard a lot of positives about the pico being a good solid little mod so a +1 for the pico, 75 watt too

Hello wadi and welcome to VU :wave:
I would agree with the pico l have one. Just remember to carry spare battery safely. Also a separate battery charger is desirable. However when l first read this question the Joyetech ego AIO came to mind. Cost about $20.
Have a nice trip.

Sorry neither of those are 30amp cells.I kind of thought the original poster might like keeping their face intact.

i think the pico has an amp limit under 20a so he should be good with a 20a cell

I must have missed where he said he needed 30 amp batteries. If that's the case. LG HB6. I just got 4 of them and they are pretty awesome

The original poster did not ask for a 30amp cell.I recommend 1 for sub-ohm vaping however.Better safe than sorry.

that's interesting, the retailers that ive seen are recommending 20a batts... and no one is showing what the voltage or amp limits are.

Got it. Depends on how low though. If you stay around .5 the 20 amps are fine. If you start going into the .1 then you probably want to go with a 30 amp

At .5 on that device the max amps would be 12.24. Even at .2 the max amps is 19.36
As long as he doesn't build below .2 he would be fine with the 30q or HG2 batteries amp wise

But as I learned recently, the devices will protect the batteries anyway

hey bubba, as a general rule that is the case. I like knowing what the limits of the device are.
in your case, with the dna, we have that information so we can say with certainty. HOWEVER, if you use 10a batteries, you will have to have a nice plastic surgery visit to the ER.
in this case, it doesn't say what the limits are, just a battery recommendation by the manufacturer.

sorry man, I'm a numbers guy.

I prefer people vape as safely as possible which I why I always suggest VTC4's.
Honestly you just can't go wrong with 1 of those without trying extremely stupid shit.
