eGo-V Variable Voltage Battery/Passthrough

[YanaGirl]

Does anyone know anything about this battery, if it is any better than the Twist? It is a passthrough so that is a definite plus. I see that Vapor Geek will be getting it but now it is out of stock.

Is it joyetech? Looks interesting.

 

[chagrin]

It's not joyetech, there has been 10 or more models of variable voltage Egos well before the twist was even out. I've seen at least 2 pass-throughs in the past, one cycled through 3 voltages with a coloured ring and the other did the same with an LED battery level display. This looks like a true variable voltage and not "mutli-voltage" and says it does increments of 0.1 v, plus up to 6 volts. I assume the LED displays the voltage and/or battery level.

It's going to be next to impossible to find any information about this with such a generic name, unless you get lucky and someone here has one. You could e-mail vaporgeek and ask what she thinks of it or who makes it.

Personally I'd stay away, despite the pluses; higher voltage (which is kind of pointless IMO) and pass-through. A lot of these models had tons of little bugs and low production quality.

What i found out...( someone correct me if im wrong ) its made by a company called CIGREE out of China. This to me is what the next version of the VV by Joytech should hopefully be ( vv and passthrough ).Hell...i want one


Cheers!

Lae should be getting those in fairly soon. I'll have one to review once she does, so we'll see if it performs as good as I hope it will.

Here's a thread on something like it-

I'm liking that design.
The two things I don't like about the Twist are the tiny voltage numbers and the eGo connection for the charger. This seems to address both.
The eGo chargers are cheap but I already have USB cables all over the place. No need to carry a special charger just for my eGos.

Yea those numbers should have been put on the "Black" part of the battery where the dot is and the dot on the twist part.

We should buy lots of these and support those poor line workers. Have they never heard of Lumbar support?

 

[Mindfield]

They don't need lumbar support, they're all robots over there. Have you seen them in action? No way that's human, man.

If this unit could also show the resistance of whatever you slap on it, heck i'd sell my new LT 1.5T.....NAH no i wont

There have been exactly ZERO true VV devices before the Twist.

Yeah, pretty much this. The other so-called "variable voltage" devices were strictly step-down devices that topped out at about 4.2V (and then only on a full charge) and only allowed 3.3, 3.7 or 4.2v options, but because it's step-down the 4.2v faded pretty quickly. The Twist was the first real buck/boost+PWM variable voltage device in an eGo form factor. The eGo-V will be #2.

Why are they not wearing any pants???

 

[ABI]

Oh, wait they are wearing pants... My bad

 

[Mindfield]

Pants just get in the way of getting screwed out of a decent wage.

 

[hot899]

Well she finally has them in and up on her web site at Vapor Geek. Had to get me one LOL Should be here next week in time for my camping trip


Cheers!

Good price. Let us know how the are, please. The firing button looks much different also.
