first day with my Ego Twist

[KForrester86]

well I got my Ego Twist yesterday, and wow. What a killer piece of equipment at a fair price. I got the 1000MAH, charged it up, and got right to vaping. The Ego Twist is great, the stainless is awesome. The battery feels good in the hand to, not extremely heavy or bulky. It's a bit longer then a 1000MAH kGO battery, but that's alright with me.

I found my sweet spot on 2 ohm cartomizers to be around 4.2v.. It gives that strong vape that a freshly charged kGO puts out the first few pulls, but It does it the whole time until It gradually drops off when coming closer to needing a charge. This is exactly what I needed, not saying the kGO is bad by any means.. It just doesn't give that continuous kick in the throat like the twist. I really can't wait to get my hands on some SR cartomizers that are in the 2.5 ohm range, so I can crank it to 4.8v and actually feel the power behind it.


not much of a review.. but If anyone is interested in buying a Twist do it! you won't be sorry. I already want to pick up another

Hi and Welcome to you. This place is full of wonderful and helpful people and I know there will be some coming with ideas for you. GOOD LUCK to you and take good care..*

I have a 1000mAh stainless Twist and love it. the charging time is the one thing no-one mentions... three hours. I'm glad I have kGos as well to fill the gap.

Glad you are stoked. I love my Twist too.

The way things are going, I don't think I will ever need a big battery mod.

 

[KForrester86]

Same with me, I have 2 kGO batts here to. I gotta get away from 2ohm though, I'm capped at 4.3v at 2ohms from all the videos I saw.

only thing I noticed with my mini sub tank 2ohm boge carto is that the top of the filling keeps losing moisture after a few vapes so I keep taking dry pulls to pull more liquid in.. I'm sure this is a voltage thing.

I don't think I'd be happy with a 3ohm. using a Ohm's Law Calculator a 3ohm would only put out like 7.68 watts @ 4.8v where a 2.5ohm puts out 9.2 watts at 4.8v. both a 2.5 and 3ohm cartomizer would put me nowhere near the 3amp limit on the twist, at least from the thread I found on here says it's a 3amp limit.

So what Ohm would you recommend using with the twist?

 

[KForrester86]

I'm thinking a 2.4-2.6 would be ideal. It would allow you to go the full range of the Twist and not exceed the limit. 3ohm starts making more sense to me If your using a 5v or higher mod.

Just ordered my second Twist, partly to replace my aging Infernos but mostly because they are that good.

 

[HawkeyeFLA]

3 Twists, and my original eGo-C 650mah batteries. Granted, I never touch the original batteries anymore, but makes for a good picture.

I really like the blue Twist-I went with blue for my first but I ordered green for my second

If I get any more, I plan to get red and green. I kind of like the idea of being able to accessorize.

"If"?

"If"?

True. Tho I have 3 now, and am seriously considering an APV now maybe a VTube. At least for at home use. But having a collection of Twists in colors would nice for out and about. I find he 650mah is a perfect size. Fits in the pocket of most everything I wear. That was a big thing for at work. But I have a system that works for me now keeping me on vaping and not thinking about smoking, so unless something breaks, I need to curb the spending a little. I was actually in the black briefly before I ordered some CE3s and a couple of my favorite juices. I'll break even again within a few days, and then I can take a deep breath (and a good breath at that ) and just relax for a bit.

Beats the hell out of wasting money on cigarettes; the only thing I don't like about the Twist is that I have to stop using it to charge it (my Infernos have USB) at least when I get the second one I can use one while the other charges.

Oh I agree that it's better money spent ... but then I think about even better ways to spend my money. I've already managed to find some money to upgrade some of my old furniture. IKEA gets my savings. I'm aiming for a 14n cruise in December. So yeah, gotta watch where I spend.

 

[zzooti]

I know what you mean; I can think of better things to spend a couple hundred on than a Provari or something like that; I only bought my mini LT because it was on clearance for $35

 

[CigFreedMike]

yep, I've got one charging at all times, works out well having two. I use mostly the lr boge cartomizers, regular size and the xxl, optimal vape for me is at 4.2 v. I use a mega tank atomizer type B on occasion, just for a different kind of vape, but the boge cartomizers are my favorite way to go.

 

[Phil McRotch]

So what Ohm would you recommend using with the twist?

I'm rockin' a LR carto, which is roughly 1.7-1.8 ohms, and using the twist at 4.0-4.2V. Seems to be a sweet spot for me.

 

[zzooti]

Got my second Twist (green!) and a gen-yoo-wine eGo charger; got both Blue and Green going with 2.0 SC cartos in 3.5 ml chrome-cap tanks; retired my red Inferno, a regular 650 eGo that won't take a charge, and an F-10 (POJ from day 1) thinking about retiring my black Inferno, and I left my mini LT at home today. I have Twists, life is good!

I've been using 3 ohm cartos in my tanks for a while now from 5-6 volts on my mods at home. I've been using them with my Twists cause that's all I have and they just don't cut it at as far as watts go. I was just thinking today how I need to get 2.5 ohm cartos now so I can maximize performance of my Twists and still use on my big battery mods. I like charging my Twists when I'm at home and putting my tanks on my vv mods. I really don't want to have to dedicate separate tanks for my egos and my mods. What a predicament these Twists have put me in all of a sudden

 

[ravenlily]

I love them. I use my black one all day. When its charging and im using my backup ego batt im like meh. So today i ordered a purple twist with a vivi nova with purple replacement tank. Cant wait.
