808 Variants

[Cool_Breeze]

Oh, the confusing nomenclature...

If I understand correctly, the Echo is has a standard 808 connection, though somewhat wider at the base.

Does the I-Turbo have the same base as the Echo?

There is an 808 variation that is along the lines of an Ego (though I usually associated Ego with 510) that has an extra set of threads. Is that the Igo design?

(more questions to follow)

Perhaps I'll make up a reference chart...

The echo is a slightly larger 808 battery. Smokeless image sells the x2, which is ego like. But instead of a 510 connection at the end, it has an 808 connection. The bigger threads, where the "cone" would go, are the same threading as the ego cone threads. It is also a slightly higher voltage battery than an ego. Egos ( non twist) are regulated to 3.3 v, the x2 at 3.7/3.6 v.

Thanks Dac.

If I understand, an Echo is the 808 equivalet of a 510 Ego.

I have an 808 Flat topped box mod. Is an 808 to Echo adaptor available?

 

[Dac311]

I think the echo, is slightly smaller than an ego, i recall them being aroud 350 mah. Like between a stick batt and an ego. You should be able to use regular 808 threaded items on there. You'd just leave the sleeve threads exposed.

 

[Cool_Breeze]

If the echo cartomizers have a deep recessed 808 threading, then the 808 battery connector on my flat-topped mod wouldn't reach.

 

[Dac311]

Oh. I see what you're saying now. Madvapes.com sells lots of different adapters. Try looking there.

 

[Dac311]

If I were you, I'd look at these

Smokeless Image | The Best Electronic Cigarette

You don't have to buy the cartomizers that fit on the cone part. Check out their nano clearomizers. They work great for me.

Dac - thanks for the information.

What I'm wanting to do is to (for one) is maintain my flat-topped mod with 808 connector and be able to use 808 cartomizers with cone threading on it. MadVapes has an 808D to (510) eGo Adapter which can be handy. A few vendors refer to the 808 + cone theard device as an 808 Ego. That's messy as nearly all Ego references are to 510 threaded devices. I wonder if there is an official or semi-offical name for the connection of 808 with cone threads.

If I can get the information together, I'd like to make a chart, perhaps with pictures that sorts the 808/808+cone thread matter out.

Here is a picture of an adapter from Nhaler which seems to me to be for 510 Ego. Yes, and now that I've saved the picture off the Nhaler site, I see it's title mentions 510. I think it is upside down in the photo.

I'm not sure I understand, but I'm going to toss this into the mix just in case it helps:

PV Adapters

Select the 901 batt-to-808 carto.

I used these on 901 batteries to give me air flow for 808 cartos. They do add length, if that's what your looking for.

If not... well, then just ignore this

ETA: they do screw on to all my 808 batteries.

 

[Cool_Breeze]

The best termonology I can find is "808 eGo" or "808 Ego." I've also seen reference to "808 Tank."

A connector I would be looking for would be something like "808 to 808 eGo,' and would be 808 female on one end and 808 male on the other with male 'cone' threads in the middle.

Heathers Heavenly Vapes has adapters that thread into an 808 to allow use of 510 type carts/tanks, etc.

 

[Natalia]

So like this, but with 808 male in place of 510 female end?

808D to eGo Adapter

Perhaps contacting MadVapes might help.

Yes, you have it just right!
I have left a question with MadVapes on the matter.

 

[Dac311]

From what I'm seeing. After doing a little more research, it looks as though the echo cartomizers are flat topped, with only a slightly recessed cone. The echo does not have the threads for the cone like the x2. All in all, I'd say stay away from the echo. You may or may not have much success trying to do what you're trying to do. Though you would be able to use your other cartomizers you currently use for your 808 flat top.

 

[Cool_Breeze]

Dac - thanks for the contribution.

It would be great if there were some universal term for 808-eGo/808-Tank/x2, and perhaps others.

 

[Cool_Breeze]

Some use "VGO" or "V-GO" for 808 + Cone Threading. Like other terms, it doesn't seem to be consistant in its use.

I have seen at least one youtube video that basically removes the filler from a standard cartomizer, and then using that to drip...haven't tried it...but I'm sure I will at some point....couldn't do it on an auto most likely.

Sorry wrong thread...
