So far I am impressed...never had an eGo style battery (other than the corded USB bypass rig) but for 2x-1300mAh battery for under $13.00 and the mantra "backups for your backups of your backups" nice to have...plus a few of the vape-a-loan rigs I have are too big and people don't like em (Totally Wicked Tornado RCS) these are actually pretty daggum small and came almost full charge (only about 2-3 hours on a 150mA cigalike charger than I got when I ordered a Totally Wicked Titan Tank kit which broke in a week at $50+!!! (they did send me a replacement though so customer service is solid enough)

So far I like it, I have a BCC mini at 2.5Ω coil that I pulled off my Vamo V3, I run my Vamo at 6.5 watts all day long and the vape is warm and full, on these batteries the vape is MUCH cooler with less throat hit but still a good volume of vape cloud

[main reason I got em was to see if I could duplicate these problems that people keep having and to see if there is a viable fix or underlying flaw, plus to get my hands on one for the ability to have something tangible in my hands to help with troubleshooting and whatnot]

Not bad for a cheap backup I suppose...was less than $13 for two batteries...let see how well they hold up, if they break...meh...I still use my other workhorse rigs Vamo V3 (and soon to be MVP2 yay!) anyway

All of you do go back and under the "Details, Options & Support" link above the "Track Package" button and click the "delivered" button to let them know you got it right? ;)

Pics or it didn't happen of course :p

Top:Vamo V3 APV with digital Marpat desert wrap (2000mAh Efest IMR - removeable), Middle:eGo 1300 (1300mAh internal battery - fixed), Bottom:510-X automatic cigalike (400mAh internal - fixed)

I have been HAMMERING on these things...the black one after a full charge lasted over 18 hours and didn't flash drained before I went ahead and put it back on charge, pleasantly pleased and a bit suprised...the 2.5Ω coil I am currently using has a very cool vape...I think a 2.0Ω-2.2Ω would be spot on for this rig

-update- Put a 1.8Ω coil on it in this head...hits VERY strong and warm!

So far so good!
