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)

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 see he joined Tue so hes most likely a new vapor and that's his first mod at least hes enthusiastic. Give him a little time he will learnYeah Buzz, Maybe be right on both guesses, but leaning more towards a difference in understanding of "revollutionary".
As I have mentioned, I'm not new to vaping, my main set up is the Atlantis on an MVP 3. The revolutionary part was that I can stick the Atlantis on the eGo battery and get identical performance as I would at 30 watts on the MVP, to me this was not what I expected from such a small device, my expectations for mods tend to be low as I've had a few disappointing ones
A battery ,is a battery, is a battery they all hold 4.2 volts they all drain and need to be charged. Some last longer than others but they all start off equal. There is a difference in regulation , How its done Buck Boost, PWM ect.... some regulation is done cheaply so its not so good. So in that respect some mods out preform others but as the technology grows the products get better and the price goes down like most things.
Pbusardo ran some tests on it, and it fires at different wattages depending on the resistance you're using with it. He found around .6 ohms it was firing around 20 watts, 1.1 ohms was around 14 watts, 1.6 was around 10 watts. So although we can't adjust it, it is adjusting itself somewhat.
He thought it might be a fixed wattage device before running these tests.
It had a resistance range of .3 to 3 ohms.

Thats irrelevant, you expect any battery to not burn out the coils it's designed to work with within 2 hours
Yeah Buzz, Maybe be right on both guesses, but leaning more towards a difference in understanding of "revollutionary".maybe your expations are to high Joe or your understanding of revolutionary and Birds are different
Yeah, I noticed. Had to have some fun with someting that is amazing, awful, and revolutionary, lol
I have had the ego one 2200mah for over a month now, and I haven't had any issues with the coils yet, I really do like mine. Ues I am also new to vaping but so far I havent been dissatisfied with it
I guess that would explain Birds post of hard hitting. I guess compared to a regular Ego its way better but compared to an adjustable voltage or wattage mod its not so much.
He did a follow up later saying he was over analyzing it and didnt even realize it is just an unregulated battery. ( in unregulated mods wattage goes up as resistance goes down)
To anyone who likes this or is enjoying it just remeber this is exactly the same performance we get from a decent mech mod.
Like I said in one of the earlier ego1 threads i personally like the device and i hope it helps a lot of people understand and come to appreciate the mech mod experience better, and shows them it isnt as horrible as many of the naysayers make it out to be. Mech mods work, no fumbling, no playing, just screw something on and go...
If you enjoy a certain tank on the ego one it will work exactly the same, if not better on a nemesis or any other mech. The difference is we get to change batteries
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.
