Got my eGo today... AWSOME!!!!..

[Fr34k5h0w]

I got it, been vaping on it and its just awsome.. and the wintergreen nic juice is great. Took a lil bit to get going though.. the first hit was NASTY! Wtf is that primer crap made from? It tasted like wd40.. so I gave my atty an alcohol bath and got rid of that yuk, now its just great.. Now to see how long the battery lasts..

 

[B4DJ1N64N]

Great to know that you are love your ego. And that wd40 experience is hillarious, i was complaining to the vendor when i taste my first hit, not knowing that I was sucking that yucky primer crap.

 

[hairball]

LOL...I think we've all done the primer crap ordeal. Glad to hear you got it figured out and are happy with your PV. Congrats. If you need any help, please ask.

Oh my god....
WD40....It's terrible.

 

[studio52]

I have many mods, but still love and use my Ego..Nice device for going out, light weight and easy to tote in my pocket. I hate the gunk in the new attys...lol

 

[Fr34k5h0w]

Well im an avid bicyclist so I use all kinds of stuff like WD40 and different oils.. they all reek..lol. I got my kit from Liberty Flights along with 2 extral batteries, 5 spare attys and some e liquid.. got wintergreen, usa mix and home counties.. haven't tried the tobaccos yet, but damn that wintergreen is NICE!.. Got a lil bottle of clove, tried that amd didn't realy care for it. Its ok but not something id vape every day. Not the same as the clove cigarettes I used to smoke. All pg.. I got a bottle of vg menthol I got at a local shop and the vg gave me a sore throat.

It's a good feeling when you finally get a good tasty pull on it. I was a bit putoff when I first got my ego, now it's my favorite thing ever.

 

[Fr34k5h0w]

Well I have yet to get my feance into vaping... I got more than enough batteries, atties and juice to go around.. I was smoking that ryo crap too and talk about nasty, coughing up nasty snotty black flem, bike stuck in granny gear to get up a lil tiny hill, THE SMELL the yellow fingers... ugh... I'm done with that.. my pv satisfies the cravimg better without all that, and I can keep up with cars on my bike again, get up the biggest hill without getting winded or downshifting WHILE VAPING AT THE SAME TIME... try that with a ..... LOL. She tried my pv, my 502 and my eGo and they were too much for her. My eGo is lightyears better than the 502, the carts are easy to fill cus there bigger, the battery, well I havnt killed one yet.. it tastes better but that's cuz the oil I got is better than the local crap I was using. The vg totally trashed my 502's atty..

 

[nastos.]

gotta keep that atty clean when vaping the vg. I vape alot of pure VG.

 

[washvap]

Glad you like the eGo. It's really a great pv and yeah, I hate that primer taste myself. It's the #1 reason why I get all my atties from Cisco/Avid vaper. Absolutely no primer used and it's great from the first hit.

 

[OBXvapor]

I thought i read somewhere that the primer is just unflavored PG liquid. Any know.if this is true?

 

[nastos.]

EgOs should come with a disclaimer warning you about the first few puffs

Not sure but primer definitely has a taste to it. A very bad one at that.

.. Now to see how long the battery lasts..

I have the 900mah (or 1,000mah battery, w/e) and it lasts me 31 hours. I don't know if the 650mah is linear in usage terms but I've heard some people say its only lasted them 3-4 hours.

Mmmm wintergreen sounds good. :: makes note for next purchase ::

 

[Michael Curry]

I have the 650 mAh's with my eGo-T. So far it looks like I get right about 24 hours out of one - that includes the 6 or so hours I'm sleeping - and to the best of my knowledge, not actively vaping during those hours. But when I am awake - I vape fairly heavily.

 

[potholerepairman]

Congrats, on longevity thru the battery lifetime, still using one that is a year old and holds a charge great.

Maybe from some vendors, but there are others with definite bad flavors in there.

I blow them out (from the battery end), drip in three or four drops of my liquid then blow THAT out before attaching the atomizer to a battery. A little wasteful of liquid but it helps a lot and is faster than a soak/dry.

There are a couple of vendors (as mentioned by another poster, Avid is one) who ship atomizers with no primer at all, you have to put liquid in them and let them sit a bit before firing those.

 

[vanttila]

All I do, is blown the thoroughly out, for so long that the paper towel is totally dry after a blow. I then primer them with some e-juice, 6-8 drops, let it sit for a minute and vape away. Never had an issue with the primer tasting though the eliquid.

 

[potholerepairman]

good idea, the real waste of juice for me is to have to blow it out several times to get what I want

Glad you're liking it! The eGo was my first PV and I think I made the best possible decision I could have within my means at the time. I used that eGo (having accumulated a number of spare batteries) right up until earlier this week when my ProVari arrived, so it served me exceedingly well through 510 carts/attys, Mega carts/attys, A and B tanks/attys, and dual coil cartos. Excellent PV and a real workhorse.

The atty primer is never pleasant, but I learned pretty quickly to blow and rinse it out before use whenever I got a new atty.
