The best bang for your buck? We typically think of the 510 or the KR808D-1.

Some would agree that they are the "best choice for a first time purchase".

First time purchase? What does that mean anyways? Shouldn't you buy the best one in your first purchase so you don't have to upgrade later on?

That's my definition of best bang for buck anways, THE BEST THING you can get for money. And I have to say it's hands down the eGo-T. It's the best device I've used. And it's not that pricey, either.

Let me explain why it is though.

I used strictly cartomizers, until I got the eGo-T. The cartomizers are simply superior to cartridges. With a cartridge, only bottom part of the polyester is in contact with the atomizer, so you never get to finish the entire cartridge. The top part of the filling always has some juice left, while the bottom is dry. If you continue to vape on this, you will end up inhaling burnt polyester, which is pretty nasty.

The cartridges also have many other flaws. It never seems to last long.
You have to continuously re-fill it, and although I don't mind it at home, I would hate to refill an e-cig in the public. It's so inconvenient.

I buy blank KR808D-1 cartos, and fill them with my favorite liquid. I fill two cartomizers in the morning, and it lasts me the entire day. No refilling required, and I don't need to take any bottles outside. I grab my 2 pre-filled cartos, my 5-volt mod, and I'm out.

I also have a bunch other atties, including the 302, RN4075, 306, 901, and 801. They work great at home, but I can't use it outside because of the issues I have with the cartridges.

The cartomizers aren't perfect though. One thing that bugs me is the fact that it still uses the polyester filling that absorbs the liquid. When the carto is running out of juice, I can always taste this burnt paper nastiness. Yeah, I have to admit that I've probably inhaled enough burnt polyester.

The eGo-T doesn't use any polyester filling. So you will never to worry about inhaling polyester when the cartridge is low on juice. If the cartridge runs out of juice on an eGo-T, you will just have a burnt taste like you would when you are dripping directly to the atty and running out of juice. Different from the burnt paper nastiness; aka burnt polyester.

The cartridge holds about 1.1ml of juice, and it feeds the juice directly into the atomizer. It literally drips FOR YOU so you don't have to. You can use these cartridges over and over again because there is no polyester, so no FUNGUS!

You simply cannot use anything else after you use the eGo-T. It's the new technological breakthrough that allows you to now use real atomizers in public without bringing your juice bottle outside. Simply fill up two or three tank cartridges, and you are good for the day

I recommend that you don't purchase the eGo-T starter kit though. They are quite expensive and it's not necessary to have all the things in the starter kit.

I recommend the following configuration instead if you are on a budget:

1x eGo 650m mAh Passthrough Battery
1x eGo TANK Atomizer
10 eGo Tank Cartridges

Those 3 are all you need. The eGo 650 mAh Passthrough battery can last you the whole day on a single battery. When the battery is dead, you don't really have to wait until it's fully charged. You can use it while it's charging :p. It comes with a USB cable so you don't even need a charger.

That whole setup is really all you need to get started, and it will cost you under $50 if you do some re-search. Hint: CHINA. and you will never interruptions with a dead battery since you can use the battery while it's charging. The starter kits come with regular batteries so you can't use them while it's charging.

That's about it. The eGo-T simply is the next logical evolution of cartomizers. If you like cartomizers, you will love the eGo-T. If you are first time buyer, get the eGo-T. It combines the best of the worlds: Convenience of the cartomizers and the power of the real atomizers.

People usually just go and buy a Riva kit from Liberty Flights as it's only 30 bux. The problem with the Ego-T is the fact its still just stuck at regular resistance, i've found that 3.7v is not really the dealbreaker to quitting cigs for many people unless its with a Low Resistance atty or carto.
