So I purchased the eGo One after hearing amazing reviews of the device. I use an Aspire Atlantis on an MVP 3 but needed something more portable for work/going out. I was more than impressed with the eGo One using the .5 ohm coil, and equally so with the 1 ohm coil. The battery life is great, the flavour is perfect and the vapor production is unexpected. However, within 2 hours of using the .5ohm coil, the vapor began to taste burnt, more than on any other wick I have burnt. So until I could get hold of another I used the 1 ohm coil. 24 hours that one lasted. joyetech said they would send me replacements free of charge, but while waiting for this I went to my local shop and bought another .5 coil. 1 HOUR LATER, it's frazzled. Wether I'm just being unlucky or the device is faulty I don't know, but I am incredibly disappointed. It's not through a lack of priming or using the wrong liquid, I'm an experienced vaper and had fully primed the wicks for 20minutes minimum and was using a 50/50 juice. This device had great potential, but it will be going in the bin for now (except the battery, which even does a great job on my Atlantis)

I had heard that their coils were not great. I am glad I only bought the battery. When I 1st got it it wasn't making a good connection with the Nano. It would fire when tightened all the way down. But thankfully it seems to have fixed itself. It is definitely my favorite travel gear.
I wouldn't even call it a mech;
it's a 1100mah 510thread fixed battery.
its basically an 18350 with a 510 thread and a button; it doesn't even have adjustable centerpin.
and it's not like the price is great for what you get either.
The eGo One is an unregulated mod - I'm not sure how you can fault it for the problems that you're experiencing with your coils.
While I personally agree, for the person not interested in learning everything needed for subohming its better then just pickin up a mech and going erp .0002 ohms on this 12 amp battery it that ok? derp.
I would prefer that person has this in his hand while sitting next to me going "looky I can subohm too!!"
I have a eGo One and yes it does leak some. I changed to the Atlantis for a couple reasons. Can't see the level of juice thru those slivers and it gurgles most of the time. A good first vape.
I always get these small mods planning on them only being my travel gear. But they continue to be my all time favorite gear. Don't get me wrong I still enjoy my Reo and MVP 3 but more and more I seem to be grabbing my ego one w/ subtank nano or my Istick w/ Nautilus mini even at home. I don't know about it being revolutionary but for form factor, comfort in hand and power it is tough to beat.
The battery is revolutionary because 1. It's tiny 2. It holds a good charge 3. It recharges fast 4. it can put out some serious power, I use an MVP 3 for my atlantis but the eGo One battery does a great job, beside not being able to alter the voltage/wattage.
Thats irrelevant, you expect any battery to not burn out the coils it's designed to work with within 2 hours
there's nothing revolutionary about the ego one battery; it's just a 1100mah battery; it doesn't have a screen; you can't adjust volts; maybe it keeps a consistent voltage hopefully; a lot of common ego type batteries keep a consistent voltage.
maybe your expations are to high Joe or your understanding of revolutionary and Birds are differentEspecially a revolutionary device!
