After 2 years of 801's with a little bit of 510 on the side I decided to try the ego. The problem is I can't find a reliable local source for 801 atomizers, and the only China supplier who has the 801's I like has a minimum order of $217. So I went along to eciggies in Pretoria and got a couple of tank atomizers and a LR cone atomizer to compare. I also bought a 650mah ego battery to compare with my indulgence and as a backup.
First off I'm impressed with the build quality of the atomizers and battery, nice matt black finish.
The LR atomizer is really powerfull, instant vape good TH and flavour. At R80 I would definately use these instead of 801's, even if they didn't last as long. Using it with dripping it goes through a hell of a lot of liquid, I needed to get used to dripping more often, but it all goes to vapour so it's a good thing. If I use it in a small room with VG liquid it really fogs the place up, this is not a stealth device.
The tank is also instant with the vapour production, but the TH and flavour is less. This is not a problem for me as I don't mix my liquids so strong now anyway. I found I needed to use a bit less VG as the liquid needs to wick through quite a small hole. I've been using the tank for over 2 weeks now, and I'm impressed, there are all the good things about dripping without the hassle of actually dripping. I'm using one atomizer and 2 tanks, I've found filling the tanks with a syringe is easiest, each takes about 1ml and I'm using about 4 tanks a day.
At R200 each these tanks are going to have to last for me to use them full time, hopefully as they become more popular the price will come down. They are definately the way to go and I recommend them for ease of use and enjoyment. You get a consistent vape over and over, just fill a couple of tanks and you are set to go for a few hours heavy vaping.
The battery impressed me as well, it handled the LR atomizer easily, no discernable diffence between it and my 3000mah on hit. It charges very fast as well, faster than you could flatten it vaping I reckon, so with 2 of them you would be pretty much set. The usb charger also seems sturdy.
