Which one is better, Twist or Spinner?

[NotoriousJDP]

I've decided I need one of these since I'm still doin' the cig-a-likes and want to upgrade. I found a site with the eGo-C Twist vv 1000mAh and the Vision Spinner vv 1300mAh for a good price ($25 each), but I just can't figure out which one to get. They look almost identical. I know either way I'll use a Vivi Nova Mini with whichever one I choose. I'm leaning towards the Spinner 'cause of the higher mAhs, but just don't know. Someone please help!

I had 2 twists and accidentally broke both of them (my fault)...but now I've got 2 spinners each 1300mah and much prefer these... the writing on the twist's dial rubs off, but not so on the spinners.. and I like the shorter, fat feel of the spinners better... my two cents

The numbers wear off fast on the stainless/chrome Spinner too, people say, so get one of the other colors - I've got a black 1300mAh Spinner myself and it's a great little battery

I have both--prefer the Spinners. The markings wear off--you may have to reinforce them in the future.

Thanks guys...Sounds like I'm gonna go with the Spinner. Vivi Nova Mini a good choice? I'd really prefer a glass tank but they seem so expensive.

Not a fan of the Novas myself. I have a Vision mini and Smoktech 2.5ml ViVi nova and stopped using them altogether. I don't like the top coil design to begin with, I don't like the esthetics (long wicks) and they all taste off to me--even though I washed them carefully before the first use. But many folks love them--try one and see for yourself. They are not that expensive.

I prefer bottom coil Kangers--T3, eVod, ProTank. But that's just my personal preference.

I kinda did a stealth experiment on this exact question. My brother and two co-workers all decided to take the leap into quitting analogs and start vaping. My brother being in construction, I decided to recommend him to purchase what I thought would be the more rugged brand name Ego-Twist. To my two office worker friends I recommended the Vision Spinners. All were max mAh and had like clearos. The two office co workers had great luck with their Spinners and clearos alike until one dropped his on the tile break room and rendered it useless. My brother, after 1 month had dropped his Twist and it too never came back and co-incedentley shattered the poly tank. Again my brothers second battery just quit altogether with medium battering and heavy use. One co worker who turned out to need 36mg fluid and still whine, dropped his spinner about 8+ times on low pile commercial carpet and it died also. Of course he wanted me to buy it back or give him some retribution for a "bad" recommendation of hardware which I led him to several you tube videos of negative opinions and he let me off the hook. As far as asthetics, the Spinner with it's shorter fatter shape (1300) mAh won out. I sent my brother a Spinner, he too like the form factor and ease of seeing the markings. when he eventually dropped it the Spinner seemed to him it was more rugged for his trade. So if your an office worker I suppose either vv would be fine. As far as far as a more rugged trade, it seemed the 2 Twists that died and the spinner which is still in use would be safe to say, if your gonna beat it get a Spinner. Elegance, go gor the Twist. Good luck on your choice, daze

My ego twist's button broke, it fell in, I can still use it but have to push is in with my fingernail. I have had lots of ego's and never had this problem with any of them, so I am gonna say go with the spinner, I am getting a couple of them.

I have 2 spinners. So far so good

 

[moijamie]

I use the twist i am pretty happy with it

If you want flexibility, flavor, durability, and lost cost in the long run buy a stainless steel mod that uses an 18650 IMR battery. If you can't afford a Provari, buy a Vamo. With the built in battery mods, it's $25 every time the battery won't hold a charge. With the replaceable 18650 mods, it's $6 to $12 for a battery that will last you a year or two. I've been rotating 4 18650 batts for over a year now and I still get an all day vape from each with more time left when I swap batteries at night and charge the one I've used all day.

The great thing about the Provari is state side repair service. Almost any other mod is a throwaway when something goes wrong.

As for budget, multiply the cost of a pack times the number of packs you used to smoke every month. That's your working capital for purchases. Once you find the right mod, you make money every month after that.

The Spinner's dial to adjust voltage doesn't move as easily, which to me is an advantage because it doesn't move on you when pocketed. Markings for voltage where off on both the Twist and Spinner (chrome, not sure about other colors), easy fix with some model paint or paint marker.
Nice setup to try-Spinner + Evod BCC.

I have a couple of each, Twists and Spinners. For some reason, my Twists seemingly provide a better hit, but I prefer the better battery life, looks, and 'feel' of the Spinners. They are both good, but given a choice, I would opt for the Spinner.

 

[Cfox23]

I should add that my batterries last all day no problem at all. I just charge at night and im good to go all day with one battery

 

[Charlie C]

Well, I tier a couple of Spinners and they bth broke.
I've purchased about 9 eGo Twists and never had an issue with any of them.

Think that answers the question.

However, for the money (as Dave said) a Vamo is a great buy; in the long run it will be a money saver.

I have a Twist. Can't read the numbers worth a dang. Get a Spinner, a lanyard and a EVOD.

My Twist is holding up well and I'm sure the lanyard is a big plus for that. It looks like I'm wearing a big pen.

 

[murphyramone]

I use a spinner as my back up. I only use it once a week to run the battery down, but i have had no problems with it. I had a twist that was a hand me down and it would not hold a charge for more than a few hours, i dont know how old it was tho.

 

[doots]

I have both. Prefer maybe the spinner alittle bit more but either are good and all day for me..

 

[vapero]

I haven't used spinners but do have twists they work great but it is really hard to see the markings on the dial i used an knife to make some markings ( really hard to see) but easy to detect y finger and know where it is
