We are pleased to announce first the US market the eGo tank system with battery life indicator!
Tired of not knowing when your battery will die? Us too, this is why we worked hard with our manufacturer to develop the first ever ego-t with a battery life indicator!

I'm curious to see how the batteries on the new Piper will be, since they, too have the indicator lights for batt strength. The Piper is basically an eGo with an alternative "tank" system. The button changes color as the charge wanes. I haven't heard much about it so I'm kinda going into it blind...should maybe be here by week's end? I haven't read any hands-on reviews of how the thing works and would love to read more about it.

I agree that Li-ion batts produce level voltage until the very last, especially since these are regulated through the MOSFET board. OTOH, if the sample voltage is taken before the regulator, then you will see the drop in voltage in a more realistic sense. 3.7 vdc is applied to the voltage regulator circuitry which delivers about 3.2vdc-3.4vdc throughout the battery life. Sampling ahead of the voltage regulator will provide better feedback, even with the end of charge life drop of Li-ion batts.

My wifeand I got our Joye Ego Maniac kits from goodprophets.com
They came with 650Mah batteries and been using them for almost 7 weeks now. NO MORE ANALOGS!!! Anyway, our batteries have been holding a charge for 8-12 hours, even with heavy vaping!! I'm out of work right now and even being home almost consistantly vaping, the battery has been lasting almost 12hrs before needing a re-charge.
Also wanted to mention that we recently started ordering accessories and juice from Vapin in the Cape.com here in Florida and they're great. Good prices, fantastic vape production and excellent customer service. Now, I am in the same state they are, but still, I can order on line on like Saturday before 2pm, and my order is in my mailbox by USPS ground on Monday!! Can't beat that, and today got my delivery of our car charger adapters AND they included a FREE sample of 5ml tobacco juice. Thanks Vapin In The Cape and Vape On Everyone!!!!
