I looked at the thag built website. It says you can get it with a 510 adapter. Could someone post some pictures of what the complete unit looks like? Do you use your 510 attomizers and batteries with it? Do you attach your regular cartridges to it?
I'd love to see some pictures and read a chuck for dummies explanation of the whole process.

Every post I've read about them seems to be very postive so I am intrigued.

It's either chuck or just get a penstyle kit which seems to make sense to me, unlike all the mods. I want to vape and I am tired of switching batteries!

Thanks in advance

A lot depends what you are looking for. d510 mega batts and ego batts are around 3.1 volts so will give more batt life but little improvement in output. Kr808d1 batts (280mah and about 3.8V) with adapter will give both longer batt life and more output (there are also 380mah long kr8 batts). I use a dse905 which has 14500 3.7V 900mah batts that last all day plus better output. There other 3.7V mods but most are much more expensive. 5 to 6V mods can give much more battery life and much more output but will burn out the attys quicker and can be bulky.

Since I was pretty attached to my 510 and have a good supply of atomizers, I went with the Tornado.

I received it yesterday and I am loving it. I vaped all night on one battery - and I'm a constant vaper. I went with the entire kit because I was having trouble finding batteries and cones in the same color - on both TW and Janty's site...

Being that I passed my one month smoke-free mark - I rewarded myself with the kit - and I think there are more benefits than just the long battery life.

I like the "feel" of it in my hand... it's comfortable. I can still put the tip in my mouth and hold it between my teeth (it pacifies me, what can I say :) )

I'm also finding that the vapor feels warmer... fuller? It's hard to explain, but I can taste more of my e-liquids now. I'm able to vape through a cartridge (I stuff and fill my own) more evenly - I get more draws before I have to top-off or refill...

and... there is no decline in performance as the hours go by using the same battery.

I really grew tired of swapping out batteries every 45 minutes or so... although it had become second nature, I wanted to start exploring options - when I started reading about the eGO/Tornado , it looked like a good next step.

I don't think I'm ready for a "mod" - I just haven't grasped the whole "mod" concept. Admittedly, I'm pretty much a girly-girl and some of those big box thingies :confused: I wanted something that I won't feel awkward using around my work environment.

The only suggestion I'd make if you think the eGo/Tornado might be a good choice, is to get the "quick charger" - the adapter that lets you charge the batteries on a regular 510 charger works - just takes a long time to fully charge.

Hope you figure out what the next-step is for you! :)
