thats odd I haven't seen any black auto's with a blue led on the end from hkhangsen , so I really don't know what is going on with those, i have seen silver with the blue led but all the black ones i have seen have a red orange led?? makes me wonder where those are coming from.

I order them directly from hkhangsen. What's funny is that I have not seen one with a red orange led. Mine are always blue.

For any who have the gogo or igo and also have the Echo - do you find you seem to be getting more nic? I normally vape at 18 on the GoGo but think I will try some 12 for heaver vaping on the Echo - Could just be my imagination but it feels like I am getting even more nic then the Gogo. Or perhaps I'm just enjoying it a lot :)

It's HERE! I rec'd my IGO today!!! (does anyone else automatically think 'Igor' when they see that or is it just me?!) Anyway - LOVIN' it..............so far! I especially like the tip. That Go-Go was a little wide - who needs lip wrinkles?! It's a little on the long side, but I'm going to start pretending that I'm Audrey Hepburn - I need a new image anyway - always good to shake things up! Tex and Bill - I SWEAR if I start having trouble w/this unit I WILL change my sign on name to Black Widow so say a little prayer!

No need to change your name! I've been rockin' mine the last few days to give it a nice work-out and while I still do love my GoGo as well, the iGo is performing like a champ! I bought the iGo as a second kit mostly for the KR808 flexibility to try out some of the sample juices in a smaller carto and it works great. The only minor complaint I have is that I'll often keep my e-cig in a front pants / jeans pocket (alone) which was never a problem with the GoGo. However with the iGo - the whistle tip does tend to fall off - not a big deal and I really should come up with some sort of case for when I'm out and about with the iGo anyway. I also do have some drip tips coming from Nhaler (should be here tomorrow!) which I picked up for easy flavor labeling (can't hide a 1/4" avery label under the cone like I can with the GoGo) so maybe those will stay on a bit better.

Regardless - enjoy your iGo - I know I certainly am!

Okay at this point I think I need to clarify things so everyone is on the same page, the models from hkhangsen are as follows.
ECHO is a automatic use's 901 threading , and is available in black , silver or chrome , in 650mah or 1300mah
ECHO-E is an manual and is compatable with ego parts and is in the same color and in 650mah,1100mah and 1300mah
as for the ECHO-v i have not seen one and won't try to tell you what i do not know!!!!
the led on the ends of the black auto echo's are redish orange and on the silver and chrome they are blue.
As for the ECHO-E I am unsure of what color the button led is as I have not received mine yet, as they wont be shipping those until friday as they were out of stock and in the middle of a production run.

My echo is down right now, I broke off one of my cartos at the battery connection and I'm having problems with the other one so I'm waiting on some more cartos. That is one weakness of the Echo, you don't want to carry the 1300 in your front jean pocket being as the carto cone doesn't screw down on the outside of the battery and they can be broken if bent. My first carto that I broke worked awesome the other one is not working hardly at all so I'm waiting to try a couple of more to see what the problem is. It could be I just got a bad carto, that can happen with any of them. Cropduster is sending me a couple of extra cartos.

Cool idea for the Echo for carrying some extra stuff while out and about:

Pics include:
closed case;
extra batt & 2 flavor change cartos;
extra batt & extra carto & 3 mil bottle for top-offs;
hand shot to show relative size. Fits nice in front or rear pocket.

Internal dimensions are 2.5" x 1.6" x 0.6"

You can get them from (expensive shipping for one item but cheap piece price) All Electronics

and you can get them from RTD Vapor (more expensive piece price but cheaper shipping)

Tex, can you describe the problems you are having with your second carto? No vapor I assume?

Thanks, JJ

Yes very low vapor. I took the filler out to see if I could see anything but filler looked like it was down all the way but it is hard to see the coil. I tried dripping and it still didn't produce much vapor so it must be something with the coil.

Im betting its the ohms, meeter the carto for us and tell us what the ohms are on it, do you have a vv unit or can you 5v hit this carto to see what happens with it ?

My voltmeter is packed away somewhere being as I'm still in the middle of moving but I will try 6v on it when I get a chance to put it on my indulgence.

We were talking about the led on the end of the battery. There isn't a good reason that I know to have them except on the autos it lets you know they are working but you can tell that by the vapor. I don't think they take much of the battery juice though but I don't really care for them because you can't stealth vape at night and the red ones make it look like you are smoking.

Yes, you can tell by the vapor, but I always wind up putting mine to my ear so I can "hear" it hissing if I'm doubtful (because it doesn't have an LED) A friend asked me if that's how you vape! I must have looked pretty silly with a stick in my ear! I'm thinking it probably does draw from the battery, as well as draw attention.

Absolutely, positively, without doubt, most certainly, definitely, unquestionably (isn't the english language great?!) I worked my way down (fast) to 6mg w/the go-go. I had some old 12mg that I put in this new Igo and now I'm all nic'd out. I'm NEVER on this board this much - but I'm no where near ready for bed tonight! Looks like I'm going to finish that book.....................

Just got my GoGo today!!! :D

I only have vaping experience with my mini Prosmoke, so I won't provide any comparison reviews or anything since I don't have the knowledge or experience. I think I can summarize my (admittedly limited) first impression of the GoGo as follows:

"YAY! THROAT HIT!"

When I could get much vapor from the Prosmoke (not often), there was almost never any TH. That was my biggest beef about the Prosmoke ... it looks like an analog but it doesn't quite hit like one. The GoGo however ... FEELS like I am smoking an analog! (Just doesn't look like one, but that's ok!)

The only thing I don't seem to get that others have mentioned is the HUGE vapor. I get decent vapor (better than the Prosmoke), but not the big fog bank that many have described. I guess I don't need that, just curious. Maybe it has to do with the pre-filled cartos I received? (Easy-Boro 24s) Not sure, but no big deal. Tastes pretty good, but can't wait to empty one and refill with some JC Tennessee Cured!
