Automatic eGo 510 Battery ?better? than a twist

[kwcharlie]

Just took one apart and there’s no chips so it’s unregulated, just a battery and the switch/led in the bottom. That explains why they vape so good, none of those vapor harmonics induced by PWM regulation. Oh ya, think I just got the last one, restock big Ike!

I am going to build up to 8 each for the Provari batteries.

After testing is done the Auto batteries will account for maybe 10% of my usage. I have getting so many because I do going on 2 day bicycle trips once in awhile. I see my self sticking 6 of these or more in my pocket before I take off. I got three of them from Iken and I have eight in 650's in route to me.

I keep calling the ones from Iken 900's when they are 1000's. I need to get it right.

Were you able to get the LED cover off. I want to dip them in paint or find something to put in it's place. I am not a fan of LED's on the end.

It comes off easy but looks like the LED is used as a diode in the circuit. Fix it wit Scotch 33 like the check engine light, just poke a hole forthe air flow.

I am going to do that. I just wish there was a matching stainless steel cap with airhole I could put in the windows place.

Hmmm,

I have not looked at eGo's in a long time. Do regular stainless eGo's have a steel cap on the end or is it constructed different?

Does it fit, I want those, send me a PM, I want to get some.

That was exactly the plan Jon!
Though they aren't giving in just yet. I'm hoping to convince them to go for it or at least find out what the minimum order quantity is. Will keep you in the know!

Right on Charlie! I'm sorry for missing your post prior. The missus Val wanted to hop on orders so I will be at the desk more often now Maybe I can plug in the phone line again! I really miss talking with everyone but I never know how to hang up and then delays start. I actually have about a dozen left that I was holding on to just in canse of any problems and there was only ONE! and it could be just the evod connection So the time has allotted and they are going up in just a few minutes.

I have three of them from Iken. I have a boat load of 650mAh versions on the way taking the slow boat.

I think these are fantastic. The 1000mAh is great for pocket carry. They do work as a hands free device. At home is the the Provari but in my pocket it is one of these.

I encourage people to give them a try.

If I was looking for a different one it would be in the other direction. More MAH. I want it to last as long as possible between charges but this one seems to be the best of both worlds.

My current quest is portability. At my desk I have no concerns over battery life. I have 2250mAh just to the right of me charged up and loaded with juice in an 18650 Provari, a little further to the right it another Provari with 1100mAh 18490 loaded up with juice. To the left is 3 x 1000 mAh devices charged up and loaded with juice. I have a drawer full of charged batteries too. It looks like I have 5350mAh setting on my desk. I think I will make it though the evening.

I have a variable voltage Passthrough (That I've been using as a charger lately) I can use at my PC but when I go I don't want to carry a bunch of PVs, juice, or batteries. I want to know the one I take will last until I get back.

I cannot stand passthough devices. I had two of them. I smashed them both. The cord kept getting in the way.

It was the same day I ordered my first Provari and after a few days on the Provari I gave away all of my eGo stuff.

It was later I realized I did some hands time with analogs. I needed automatics and that brought back the eGo autos starting with the ones from Iken.

Well I made this one so I made sure it worked well for me. It also has Amp/Volt display so I know exactly where I'm vaping at. Not that I ever go this high but it will also go up to almost 12 volts. It starts at 2.something volts. I never have any problems with the cord being in the way. I do remember the other ones though with the short cords. For the road I have my Buzz Pro or Infinity Pro. Plus some other ones.
Never cared much for boost regulated PVs. I had one but I gifted it to a lady in need. She uses it every day.

PS: Maybe if I followed the directions it would of worked. The directions say when using on glass or other smooth non-porous surface put thin coat on glass and let it dry before cementing. I just glued it.

My bunch of 650's arrived, I am soooooooo disappointed. They are not as much shorter than the 1000mAh than I expected. It is the same tube but a tiny bit shorter but even worse is they have this dome shaped faceted sparkly thing on the end. I hate that thing on the end. I like the ends on Ikens much better. These are not capable of standing up on end.

I know I wanted them for riding but I will wanted them to be able to stand up. I like the 1000mAh I got from Iken better than the 650mAh ones that I got. I would be fine with them if they didn't have that stupid thing on the end.

 

[JJOOHHNN]

The batteries I got direct are not near as good as yours. The ones I got from you work great, the ones I have a kind of wonky.

The tube portion might look the same but the outside of that there is a difference.

You'll find that true for everything Iken makes. He takes things and makes them better. That's because he is a vaper and not just someone trying to make money.
