eGo Batteries-Real Ones or Clones

[maggotspawn]

Running an eGo T 650 mA battery. Looking to get some 1100 mA ones. Are the clones as good?
Looking at some batteries at fastech and they are less then half the price of real eGo's.

The knock-offs generally work, for the most part. They do usually take a charge and power your device. But, if you want it to also work reliably and to last for many months, buy Joyetech or Janty.

I'm still using the first Joyetech battery I ever bought, after 2+ years. Of course, I have lots of batteries. So, I'm sure it would be dead by now if I only had a couple and had to use it every day. Batteries can only last so long.

That being said, most of the knock-offs really are adequate. And, it's great to have lots of colors, sizes, and patterns. With knock-offs, you can afford to do that.

Thanks for the info.

I have only owned the Brand name egos, and I only get them from suppliers who I know support their customers (i.e, if your EGO doesn't work, it does little good that you "saved" $5 on them, right?.)

I go for genuine Joyetech and Vision products.

Don't forget that the branded companies also provide good warranty support to their customers, which are the vendor you are getting your batt from......which in turn allows your vendor to support YOU should you have a problem.
