i'm also sorely tempted to pick up this rock-bottom priced hardware...even though i purchased a hello 016 kit less than 6 hours ago :(
Spares are always worth having imo and a backup PV is very worth it. Your Hello kit is good from all reports, but what if you lose it or break it? Then you have spare backups!
I'm looking at getting a few odds n ends when I order juices soon myself for that very reason; well ok Im going away and dont want to take my 'normal' kit so getting this, cheap n cheerful stuff, is sounding like a top idea :)

Geoff really is the king.

When I started vaping back in Feb, I was just getting the normal carto's juice that all the other places import and it was mediocre at best, disgusting at worst (this strawberry lemonade I had tasted like soap..).

With all the positive reviews I tentatively ordered some TV juice, and I was completely blown away. From that point on I have ordered juice exclusively from TV. As he says, no flashy packaging, no fancy bottles. Just quality product, great prices, best taste.

Now that he is offering hardware, especially at such an excellent price, many of the more casual vapers can safely visit the one site and never wander away.

I know there are disclaimers about no garauntees, and it makes sense to me given his business. I know that with the quality I have come to know and respect from Geoff that he doesnt hang you out to dry, and wouldn't peddle salt peter as holy water.

Hat's off. I have all the respect and love for TV. Kudos, and the TV logo on those look awesome. Next month I will certainly be trying out an eGo from TV :D

e market into a "happy medium".
Geoff...you need to be know as "THE REGULATOR" from now on.

I've had my 510 from TV for a few days and so far 3 people have asked me about e-cigs and how I tolerate spending so much for a single appliance. I explain that a 510 kit at TV costs $25 and their jaw drops. I will definitely be sending people his way...

The other day I saw someone drop $90 for a 510 kit at the mall -- one atomizer, one battery. You can get an extra atomizer and battery with the kit, bringing it up to a comfortable $129. LOL. And they claim it's completely manufactured in the US! Wow! Really, is anyone really making RN4081s and 510s in the US? Am I an idiot for even asking?

The mall vendor does replace atomizers and batteries for free (until they disappear one day) but obviously they've factored this into the cost of their prices in order to churn pure profit, and I highly doubt they're using Joye parts. TV isn't either, which they are up-front about, but so far I'm very pleased with what I've got.

ORDER ORDER ORDER!

My 2 eGo batts and cones shipped today, along with 48mg AC and a doubler :headbang:

Why didn't I try AC with my first order that I received last Friday? 'cuz I'm dense, apparently, but I did notice the mention of eGo coming in and figured I'd be ordering again soon.

I even remember thinking "I wonder if there are cinnamon e-liquids out there" (I'm on week 3 of PV bliss) and duh, they have the best one, from what I've heard. Hopefully I'll be able to tell you by Saturday, or Monday. USPS Priority mail ain't bad; don't know why people always be slaggin' the USPS (not here, just in general).

I'll ask again, because no one has answered. IS the TV logo simply a sticker that can be taken off???

No, it appears to be silk screened / engraved / anything but stickered :)

I find it tastefully done but it may be possible to remove it with acetone. The rest of the paint might come off too, though. Maybe it's easier with the titanium colors, I usually favor black.

I'm very glad I picked up spare 510 atomizers. I bought 2 kits from TV and that should've been plenty of atomizers to last a long time but I got quite a few more at the same time. This was my first 510 experience...

So far the stock 510 atomizers were compatible with all hardware you'd expect them to be, but they didn't work with my eGo batteries I just received. You could definitely tell no electricity was hitting the atty.

I was about to despair and go ghetto-tech (I'm sure I just need a conductive spacer of some sort) and then tried one of my extra spare 510 atomizers after trying two "stock" boxed-up ones unsuccessfully, and it worked fine! I suspect all of my extra spares do, there's something different about 'em vs what you get in the kit. The $25 510 kit parts have been great, just didn't work with the eGo batts.

Update: I was about to moan and groan about having to break in yet another atomizer, as I am very impatient during that process, but damn, maybe it's just the power of the battery, or a combination of the atomizer and battery, but this thing is kicking out clouds right off the bat. Next, I must try LR atomizers and a 5V USB straight PT.

FREAKING AWESOME! I've got a Tornado (branded eGo from TW). I mentioned in another thread that you're going to be my new source for attys, Geoff. In fact, I just placed an order for 5 of them a few minutes ago. Now you're my eGo replacement parts source. I got my mom started on e-cigs to replace her 40 year analog habit. She's really starting to like it. I bought her a 510 kit with a PCC, but battery changing every 3 hours is starting to be a PITA for her, so I was going to get her an eGo. Now I know where it'll be coming from. :D Thanks, man!

No go with the acetone here on titanium, (any more suggestions?) ... but other than the logo, everyone I've ordered for loves the 510 batts...:D

Personally, I love the TV logo on the eGo batteries. Since I usually only have to change batteries only once a day with my standard 510 anyways, I really don't NEED an eGo battery; the TV logo is actually the main reason I ordered one. It just feels less "generic" and I think it will be cute. when it gets here. ack!!
*goes off to check USPS website again*.
