    Are LR Attys worth it ?

    Possibly a battery or two! But, I am in the same boat, and ordered a pair of LR attys to see how they might improve the eGo experience. Let's hope our batteries can take it!

    Is nicotine linked with congestive heart failure?

    Yes, it absolutely can cause atrial fibrillation, which can trigger congestive heart failure: Nicotine Exposure In Aging Hearts Nicotine is the component in cigarettes that makes smoking harmful to your heart....So, that is one aspect of ecigs that remains dangerous...

    Parkinson's and Vaping/Nicotine

    This thread is such a coincidence, I was planning on posting a question about this here, but not related to nicotine. Earlier today, I watched a video describing how to de-bridge and de-wick an atomizer, and the demonstrator mentioned that the material in the atomizer was made of aluminum -...

    Kicking the eGo up a notch

    Thanks for the good advice, Phil - I wish now that I had ordered a USB pass through battery and drip tips along with the LR atties, maybe I could have saved on shipping!

    Ok, just ordered two LR atties from GoodProphets!

    Kicking the eGo up a notch

    One more question to add - I hear that the USB passthrough gives a harder hit as well...how does this compare to the better hit from LR atties?

    Kicking the eGo up a notch

    Any recommendations on which LR atty to buy for the eGo? Still overwhelmed by the plethora of suppliers...

    Kicking the eGo up a notch

    Thanks for that info! I have my eyes on the ProVape, and will be looking forward to the Infinity when it's available. I notice that some juices perform much better with the eGo - my Johnson Creek juices provide barely any TH, but the VaporStation juices I have right now provide a wonderful hit...

    Ok, JollyRogers, you have me curious about the mod. Any recommendations, links to more details?

    Kicking the eGo up a notch

    OK, definitely interested in the LR atty. Has anyone compared the performance increase with a debridged, non-LR atty?

    Kicking the eGo up a notch

    Ok, so it seems the LR atty is the way to bump up the eGo's performance. By safety, I refer to some posts I have seen regarding LR attys frying batteries...Does a larger battery work better with a LR atty, etc?

    Kicking the eGo up a notch

    Fairly new to vaping, and a little overwhelmed by all the options and mods out there. I see things like 900mah eGo XL batteries, mega-atties, etc. that could possibly give some more power to the eGo....how much of a difference do these things make, are they safe to use, etc.?

    Can't seem to get that nicotine buz

    I recommend trying a sampler pack from VaporStation, and choose 36mg. Many of the juices from JC and Cignot are maximum 24, and even 18mg for Red Oak. The flavors are quite tasty, too!

    is the only thing better about the ego over the 510 better battery life?

    Thanks, Zen, the ProVape looks awesome! Definitely a little pricey, but, as you mentioned, the return on investment is there in the long run...I'll definitely look at that, and keep my eyes open for the Inifinity when I'm ready to upgrade!

    One month!

    Congratulations! This is really encouraging to hear - I am only about 2 weeks into it, and am already down to only a few analogs each day - I still need that one or two to get started in the morning, but I am looking forward to getting rid of that as well...

    is the only thing better about the ego over the 510 better battery life?

    Zen, all of the analogies you mentioned do have valid answers. I do understand where you're coming from - I build computers, so I see a good comparison is "what is a good starting computer for a beginner?". Knowing absolutely nothing about the end user, I can provide some options with...

    is the only thing better about the ego over the 510 better battery life?

    Since I still have many other facets to explore, such as different strength of vapor, various combinations of PG/VG, it will probably take me some time before I know which way to go. But, the fact that this question is necessary to figure out where to go after an eGo is testament to how...

    is the only thing better about the ego over the 510 better battery life?

    Zen, thanks for your detailed reply! I can tell you from the point of view of someone who is relatively new to vaping, the reason the eGo became my choice, is that it was comparably easy to figure out what I would need to get everything working. It was the best-reviewed PV that I could find...

    is the only thing better about the ego over the 510 better battery life?

    Hmmm..sounds like a lot a suspicious amount of bitterness towards the eGo. I have one - I'm not terribly experienced as a vaper, other than my failed attempts to be happy with an Njoy. But since I got the eGo, I am seeing a path to giving up cigarettes that I am happy with for the first time in...

    Vapor Station Reviews and Recommendations

    I was vaping the VS4 all night last night - very nice! I also have some Tennessee and Texas, though I think that I enjoy the Tiramisu the most at the moment - I think I have to order a nice big bottle of it, maybe I'll use that one to step down to a lower nic, since I like the flavor so much, it...
