im looking to buy a secondary mod on the side.
the epower has the 18650 3000 battery and the kgo has the 1100 mah battery.
are they the same size?
the epower obviously has a longer life battery but the kgo says that it has a 4volt fully charged output.
does the epower only have the 3.7v?
how does the ego-t compare to the epower and kgo mods?
can the ego-t use a cartomizer or only tanks? what is the connection on this?
there are too many egos out there and I just want the one that has the longest battery life, decent size and has the highest voltage output. I have tried the ego t and the tank kills the flavor of the juices. the vapor is also poor. however, i believe that ive been using the 600mah ego t from a friend. so its an older version. however, the menthol juice in the tank was barely noticeable. if at all. so friends. which ego is the best? so far, i think the epower and the kgo are the top competitors no? fill me in asap. im buying fluxomizers from gotvapes soon and i would like to decide on which kit to buy along with the fluxies. lata.

I can speak for the epower i have the NoEgo 18650 i use this as a back up for provari's because it uses the same batteries Very happy with it i use 1.6 ohm dc cartos on it and id performs well.You should get the good batteries AW imr 18650 i also use my new provape 2500 in mine.It probably starts out at 4.2 ohm but it's not suppose to slip below 3.7 i have not checked because it fires the lr dual coil cartos well till battery dies.The switch can be repaced easy on these also being a 3 piece.Jaz cartopipe has the one i'm talking about the batteries you got to get elseware though.

The eGo-T has the shut-off button on the battery to make it more pocket friendly. Joye makes the eGo-T, the others copied it. Some say there are improvements, others disagree. YMMV.

can the ego-t use a cartomizer or only tanks? what is the connection on this?
It has a 510 connection and can use anything you choose to screw onto it with that connection.

I have tried the ego t and the tank kills the flavor of the juices. the vapor is also poor
If you want the best flavor, IMO, put a Boge cartomizer on top of the eGo-T's battery.

This of course enters the foggy area of, if you aren't using the atomizer and tank that came with it, is it still an eGo-T? After all, the T stands for tank. But basically, it's that way with most of the stuff we use. I am currently using the 1000 mAh passthru that says eGo-T on it with a Boge LR cartomizer. So, am I using an eGo at all?

I was loving the CE2 till I got the Boge. If you're making an order anyway, add a couple bucks to it and have them throw one of those into the box and give it a shot. You might love it.

I really like the eGo-T batteries. The tanks are OK, and I like them for juices that I like, but not well enough to devote a carto to them. Don't let yourself get locked in to one "kit", if you know what I mean. Interchangeability is a great thing. The kits do have their place of course, since especially with batteries you want to be sure you are using the proper charger. But what you screw on top is all up to you.

Happy vaping! :vape:

Joye Ego and Ego-T (real Ego) is around 3.3v.

Epower would be 3.7v

Fake things called "Ego" (without the Joye) are sometimes crap. Beware Ego names with other letters added - one and possibly 2 are reverse polarity and cannot use normal Ego chargers (they and real EGo would fry each other with their chargers).

I know nothing about Kgo, Vgo, etc

For the same number of mAh, the e-power batt ($5 @ Madvapes) cost less than kGo 'cause you're not replacing the casing and switch/button. Pending the exact model, the "4v" advertised number could drop off in use. I haven't used e-power so can't speak to its longevity.

I just got my first eGo-T and I'm open to suggestion and have read dozens of postings, but my Ego-T leaks like CRAZY and I have nothing but vape plus mouthfuls of eliquid. I've pretty much given up and gone back to my beloved original eGo (sans tank)

I've heard that a lot obout the T. From what I've read, if you're using a type B tank, you can get soft plugs for the refill port on the back...this supposedly helps a lot. I think I'll stick with my type A tanks...no leaks in two days of constant vaping.
