im getting my echo either tomorrow or wednesday...kinda excited :D

Great, I'm interested to see if others like them as much as I do. Did you get the auto? This is a great auto I had a little problem with the tip coming off in my pocket but I'm kind of rough with my PVs. I put a 801 driptip on it and it works great.

Just got my 650mah Echo. I am loving the size and performance. Too soon for detailed comparisons but about the same flavor and vapor of the GoGo I use and seems to me to be a little more TH. A tighter and quiet draw compared to the GoGo. This is the perfect size to keep in my shirt pocket. I think a second kit is in my near future.

I included a picture of my stable to show the size differences (from L to R; Bloog 78mm, Ego-T, Echo, GoGo (with whistle tip).

Not the old gen auto - the Bloog Maxx Fusion is a new gen auto so was exposed to Autos there. It's a great unit but carto life after being used to 3ml cartos seems really really short :)

I heard those were good autos too. This is the first new generation auto I've used so I was real impressed between this and the older ones.

you should post a pic of the 650 and 1300 side by side, if you can. ive had 1 auto batt so far( BMF) and its really really responsive, no primer puffs needed and never burnt taste on the cartos on it either due to the non-vertical coil...so you could say im getting somewhat same with the auto echo...but bigger. filling cartos all this time really hasnt been a big deal to me but im suspecting that i will eventually get used to the size of the batt and carto on the echo and think: hm...what do i fill the "fiddle time" with now? glad to hear good reviews on it. i just hope the battery lasts me all day (i go through about 4 ml of juice/day).
if it doesnt ast me all day, i could have just as well have gone with 2 650mah batts but...we'll see.

I broke one of my Echo cartos yesterday by carrying it in my front pocket. Being as the cone does not screw down on the battery it leaves just the few threads on the carto to take the torque and can snap off if bent. I put on the other carto and it doesn't seem to be performing as well as the first one or as good as the Go-Go. It could be the juice so I will try another juice after I vape this up and see how it compares. I ordered a few more cartos so I will be giving it a good test before I do a review on it.

Will there be a version of the Echo without the LED?...for stealth vaping

Does the Igo have an LED?

Is there really a difference between the Igo and Echo...the matrix thing in the Echo video?? (not considering threading)

How do you know when to refill? I've read that you should never let cartomizers run dry... I've only used the Ego-T never used a cartomizer.

I use and am happy with the Ego T, but am looking for a good PV for a relative who wouldn't be able to pop the Ego T plate and dry burn

HOT DAMN! I finaly successfully removed a IGO filler with out destroying the center tube.
After I get it cleaned, I will re install it using your instalation procedures, mohawkx.

Hey Bill, how did your cleaning and re-installation work out? I'm curious if some of these cartomizers that are packed too tightly can be thinned out a bit.

My months old Go-Go cartos are still going. Remove and wash the fill, wash the carto body, dry-burn the horizontal coil, re-insert. I have found no cheaper, better, or more consistent vaping than with the Go-Go.

Leo cartos are nice, but the standard vertical coil system will not give you the same re-useable results.
