Ego booster - any thoughts on this unit?

[Toronto_Mike]

There really isn't an EGO VV - it's not variable - its selectable! I think we should be a bit more specific here. There are only 3 voltages to choose from with the eGo battery.

Shouldn't we be talking about the pros & cons of purchasing a eGo Booster?

Companies should learn from these guys. Demonstrate what it is really used for in a simple, clear way via YT videos.

Artisan obviously hired a professional to produce this demo. She obviously has never smoked or vaped prior to making this demo. I like her lab coat - like she's a scientist or somethin'. I never came across this, when I was buying mine, so thanks for posting this

Thanks, Zer0ith! I always appreciate your comments. Nice to hear that you've got one and what you think of it. Have been doing some thinking about this whole thing today. Hmm ... Kanger cartos for out and about, learning the fine art of dripping when home ... why do I even think I need VV ability? If I'm not going to be using all different sorts of cartos/clearo's, etc. and atties ... guess there is no real need to go there, right? Man ... this is so confusing trying to sort out all the technical side of things!

I have had mine for a couple of months now, i like it, it works as advertised. Its shortcommings in my opinion are, adds too much length, dial gets bumped and voltage can change, and you dont know what voltage it is set at... reason i bought it was i like the ego form factor for when i am out and about. But i find an lr attie just as effective for most juices... would i buy it again? Probably not, but i dont regret buying it

Variable by definition just means changeable, so it is variable voltage. As in, you can change or vary the voltage. Thing is, most people that are even going to consider buying these are big eGo fans (otherwise they would just get a VV box mod or something similar, and more than likely for a lot cheaper, too). So if they're eGo fans, it's also worth them knowing that they can buy an eGo battery instead of just adding something on to their current one (that adds quite a bit of length and weight) and still be able to vape at the more popular voltages at a third of the price.

I just think it's worthy of discussion. I don't think that we can ONLY discuss this one thing here and can't compare it to other, similar products. But hey, that's just me.

I got a used eGo Booster from someone on the classifieds months ago. All I had were eGo batteries at the time and was curious about trying variable voltage. Works pretty well for me. Really enhances some flavours I must say.

Hey fisher

One of your concerns was the size of the LT

Have a look at a ego 1000mah compared to the LT ... then add 1.5 inches to the eGo
The LT isn't all that big.

Wow! Thanks for that comparison shot! When you just see a picture of the LT by itself, it looks huge but now I can see that it really isn't all that much larger except in width. Man ... if you put an Ego booster on that Ego battery ... it would probably be the same height (or maybe a tiny bit taller).

Thanks for giving me some perspective on this!

This reminds me that I need to fill up a tank before I get my LT tomorrow =D

I'm an Ego user. When I want a warmer vape, I reach for my KGO with a LR carto. I'm not sure exactly how much voltage range there is between those two, but it was a cheap way to try another voltage ($45 for the kit or about $20 for one batt).

 

[Cobber]

I know ... I was amazed how small it was when I got it.

Oh and I love it ... I have flavors that are better at a higher voltage ... some stuff I didn't like on the ego I really like on the LT (like blueberry in a extreme vision)

I would suggest jumping on the LT bandwagon. It's not something you will regret.

The one thing that sold me on the LT is the batteries. Ego batteries are good for about 300 charges, and from what I know about the 18650 they are about the same but under $10 to replace.

If I may make a suggestion here ... I have been using the EINSTEIN Variable Voltage Box Mod from Electro Vapors Canadian Ecigs Accessories and Eliquid since Friday. So far, I am really impressed with the performance of this small & compact mod.

So if you are looking for something that does not stand out, this might be the unit for you. The kit includes (2) Vision clearomizers which are made to work properly with it.
