Advice on eGo-C

[Phoenix07013]

So far I've had my eGo-C type B for 2 weeks and I love it,I am ready however to upgrade or rather, try different things
this is what I am thinking about
LR attys
twist battery w and w/out the above
Claromizers's maybe, though I'm a little dissuaded by possible plastic-y taste
and the one I'm really curious about is the ViVi Nova tank, especially with the twist battery, any experience with this?

Any advice, thoughts, would be greatly appreciated

i have the twist, love it with my ego-c and standard resist attys. I am one of those not a fan of the clearomzers, very dull flavor for me, that and they give out way too soon for the price. I haven't tried the ViVi, it looks so much like the clearo's I have no interest in it, yeah I know I'm pre judging lol, when/if they make one that fits on the ego batts and aren't so bulky I may give them a shot.

I probably recommend fiddling with different attys, dripping to be exact.

I'm using an eGo C Twist (1000 mah battery) with a SmokeTech 3 ml tank using a low resistance, dual coil cartomizer (1.5 ohm) vaping at 4.6 volts - absolutely love this set-up - easy to fill the tank, lasts all day & no leaking with great flavour.

How long do your cartomizers last, or expecting to last? Is it a pita to refill them?

The Twist is a win. I've had one for about a month now, and it's awesome. I've heard mixed things about the Vivi Nova. The E1 ReVive V2, on the other hand, is what I would buy if I were in the market right now. I've heard nothing but good things about it, performance-wise. It looks sharp on an eGo too.

I bought a couple of twist and don't think there worth the extra money and don't stand up the the hype. They are way to long and fall out of my pocket alot. My friends love the stardust carto but me not so much. The SD was fine for a day but to me quickly lost flavor and TH. They disagree so its a personal choice, I do recommend if you can afford to try out the stardust. There inexpensive, give them a shot.

Do you have the 650 or 1000 maH Twists? The 1000 maH is pretty big, but I have a 650 and it's only a little longer than the 650 Passthroughs I normally use -- not unwieldy or anything like that. It's well worth the extra size and the few extra dollars for VV, if you ask me.

I hope you have your flame suit on. Twisters have outdone the Provangelists around here lately. Why shouldn't you expect a 1000mah battery to be as long as your arm? What's wrong with a 650mah battery that's as big as a Lavatube and lasts 3.5 hours? Numbers? What do you need to see numbers for? Do it by taste. Whats wrong with spending $60-70 on a pair of disposable batteries? It's the Twist doggone it, and it's the flavor of the month!!

The Vivi Nova is unlike any clearomizer you've tried. It will look a bit goofy on a Twist or ego type battery. If you value form over function, get a stardust. If you want the best, most leakproof, trouble free, best performing tank around, forget the goofyness and try a Viv Nova. I've been sounding like an affiliate lately, but I can't say enough good things about this tank. The only bad thing I can find is that the heads meter out to about 0.3-0.4ohms higher than they are marked. But I don't care because it takes about 10 minutes and $0.50 to recoil and rewick them. Oh yeah, the other thing is that the tank is polycarbonate, which can crack with certain juices. But I don't care about that either because anodized aluminum replacement tanks are less than $4 and the version 2.5 has a different plastic tank that won't crack. Hmmm...What else can I find to criticize? Let's see. Dripping tastes better. They aren't free. They're out of stock too often. They won't wash my dog. That's about it.

I know I love my 650mah Twist. Already gotten used to the size and my 650 non twist doesn't feel right now. Ordered a 2nd Twist that arrives tomorrow. Also 650mah. Couple of 650mah for out and about will be a nice combo I think. One of my preferred vendors is getting them in stock next week, gonna order a 1000mah. Be a nice unit for sitting around at home. I've held the 1000mah and it is comfortable, just a tad too long for out and about stuff. I think the 1000mah, a tank, and some 2.0ish Boges, and I will have blissful all evening vaping.

I've received two eGo C 1000 mAh passthoughs today. I like the ability to simultaneously vape/charge while sitting at the computer where I do most of my vaping. Wouldn't do it during a lightning storm though

I've been using the standard clearomizers for three weeks, and have only lost one out of the 15 or so in the flavor rotation. Each flavor has its own clearo. I don't notice any plastic taste, they're easy to fill, and no leakage at all. They hold 1.6ml of juice which lasts me all day. cloudsofvapor.com sells them for 3.59 ea., the cheapest I've found to date.

Since I'm just beginning my vape experience, these items work fine for me now. But, at some point, I'll want to investigate other devices as well.

I bought the 1000s. I knew going in to it if you increase the voltage the current draw on the battery would go up too (I= E over R) So wanted a battery to last all day. The batteries drain to quick and I have to carry a charger around. The ones I bought do not have the push button changing to blue at about 10% battery life left. That was a nice thing I quickly got use too.
Like you I loved the pass-through but the design by joytech on the twist makes that improbable.

I hear ya. If they find a way to make one with a passthrough, I'll be completely satisfied with it. Who knows -- maybe they're working on it. I've noticed that every time they introduce a new line of batteries, the passthrough always comes in the second wave. Then again, I could see logistical design issues with it, and the passthrough would add even more length. I have an eGo-C Upgrade battery with a passthrough, and it's not a bad intermediate alternative because you have two voltages to choose from.

I have 2 650s ... I find that with semi consistent vaping, I go about 3 hours on a full charge. The LED thing is about the only place I feel that Joye dropped the ball on the Twists. The tricolor on the regular -C was great. Solid blue = to the charger. Ah well. I have a USB port in my car. Nice unit. It's my cell charger, but the part that plugs into the power outlet has a regular USB port as well. So I can charge a battery and my phone at the same time. Tho I think it's time to invest in a second charger, since I take mine from home to car to work regularly.

At some point I want to do some wood working and integrate a charger into a nice charging station that also has space to hold extra batteries.

I think the twist is a decent device too and considering that the direct competition is the ego booster, its cheaper and more compact with the same features. Best variable voltage option for use with ego ATM IMO.

 

[NGIB]

I'll echo Sailorman here. The Twist is huge for it's capacity and it is a disposable in the long run. I can buy 18350 batteries for my VTube Mini for $7.50 a pair from CCV right now and the kit from Apollo was $52.47 shipped...

 

[VapoTom]

Let's face it.. What we ultimately want from the twist or similar device is the ability to vape from 3 to 6 volts, with the same size as normal 650 mah ego batteries, have 1000mah capacity minimum and last for a very long time.

Such a device with a line v2 genesis atomiser would be a total win....

I'm thinking that the lava tube mini is probably a good compromise device at a good price with excellent features..

After investing in 25 E-Go kit's (15 T's & 10 C's) to begin a small from home biz I have taken the crash course in what works on E-go's. To say I have a bunch of stock Atties from the E-go kits is an understatement. I put Clearomizers in every kit now, not that they're the best but a solid (virtually LEAK FREE) choice. Saliorman is on the money including the VIVI, i am using the O.G. version now with version 2 on it's way along with wire and silica wick for rebuilding. On an E-go tho I get the vision of a fat headed skinny kid (sorry if you have any).
