Do you have an original Ego? What do you think is the difference in quality and performance between a fake and original EGO?

If everybody doesn't mind my 2 cents....

Original Ego
- Sold under the brands "Janty" and "Joye"
- Tends to be higher quality, with better components that lasts a bit longer. Components as in the mosfet, or electronics that controls the power output and amps.
- Less susceptible to getting killed by shorted atomizer or cartomizer, although it does happen.
- Lower operating voltage compared to clones. Tends to be about 0.2 to 0.3 volts below clones, but there have been rumours that it has been improved.
- Seems to last longer in terms of lifespan. I have a friend who has an original Joye Ego battery still operating, while I've gone through 2 Riva batteries in the same time.
- Tends to be more expensive, much more expensive.

Clones
- Anything not made by Joye is commonly considered a clone. This includes Riva, Hello 016, etc.
- Higher operating voltage, some even have features that regulates power at about 3.7V from fully charged to almost flat
- As the voltage tends to be a little bit higher, clones for me give a slightly hotter vapor, flavor and throat hit.
- I've had 2 Rivas die from shorted atomizer or cartomizer. Seems the mosfet is easily killed by this type of thing.
- Doesn't seem to last as long as the original Joye Ego, in terms of lifespan
- Sometimes not able to work properly with some atomizers or cartomizers. Case in point, the Ego mega cartomizer doesn't seem to make contact well with the connector, and some don't work with my clones, not without a bit of modifying.
- Cheap, very cheap. A set of 2 batteries plus accessories can be bought locally for RM100+.
- Depending on the factory that made it, clones can either be a piece of crap, or good value for money with high quality and low price.

There are a lot more differences, but these are the ones that I've found that do influence my experience with the Ego style battery. This does not mean that I think the original Joye or Janty Ego is better. I find that buying clones work best for me, as I had intended to move on to better mods, and the clones were just a stepping stone to get there, with reduced cost.

At the end of the day, I feel that the Ego style battery, no matter if it's an original, or a clone, is the best e-cig in the world today. Not to say that mods are not good, but I can't think of another e-cig which is that cheap, easy to use, not much larger than a 510, and is so flexible and versatile. Granted, it doesn't give you the best you can get, but it sure is handy. Many veterans tend to keep at least one Ego style battery as backup. As a main e-cig, it's grand, giving most people a good day of vaping.

The 510 was my first proper e-cig, but the Ego style was the one that gave me the vapour experience I needed that let me switch from tobacco to vaping.

look like i follow yr direction,i like to get at least 1000mAh ego-T..now i understand abit on the requirement for lr/hr and standard atomiser and also the battery life..1000mAh will be "all day" for me with 1 single-charged..that i would like very much..i tried the tank system with the atomiser(sd) i bought from HG..both work well on my 510T kit..i also use on the ego battery..so much more vapor & also tried out the G4 on the ego battery,but not impressed..still not a good vape..got vapor but just so so..as this ego set i promise to give to my adopted son..will ask him to aquire DCC from Alvin when he comes to my place to collect..busy man always busy with work..regards mafig ps so slowly reducing yr vaping?..i also diluting my 18mg nicotine e-liquids with 0 nic menthol..want to reduce my nicotine intake but not giving up on vaping..hope U do

G4 or Vortex, will not do a very good job on your 510T or your ego. Chances are good that the resistance rating on it is quite high, 2.8, 3.0 or even higher. As it's not getting hot enough with the 3.7V or lower from your batteries, you will get a wimpy performance. Stick the G4 onto a variable voltage mod, and dial the voltage up a bit, maybe somewhere between 4.2 to 5 volts, and you're gonna see quite a difference.

DCC work very well on ego style batteries....excellent choice, but keep in mind that the extra heat also draws more power than standard atomizers or cartomizers, so battery life is shortened by a bit. If for example, you used to get about 16 hours of use on the ego battery, you will find that reduced by a few hours due to the higher power drain.
