had my blu for 2 weeks... want to upgrade...

[scubasteve25]

was looking to upgrade, my blu is ok for being out and around, but i made an ill informed purchase and would like to "upgrade" i was thinking of something like Joye eGo and if this is a good kit, where can i get it cheaper. todays my birthday, got a little money, and wanna get something for myself. any other recommendations would be awesome, i use my blu mainly at work, but i want something better for sitting at home in front of my computer.

I have an Ego and I love it. Especially the mega cartomizers. I don't always have much time to devote to my e-cig during the day. The very long battery life plus the long time before refill of the mega cartomizer (holds 2mL of juice) really suit my needs on a workday. Think about what you need your e-cig to do and choose a system that meets those needs.

I've ordered my Ego on Greenhouseone and they sell it for $50.

 

[scubasteve25]

how long was shipping from china?
at least, the website says they ship from china

 

[Bimbo]

It took 8 days. I just received it today when i ordered it last august 27. i bet it would be lesser in your place.

 

[Bimbo]

and Tim the owner is very kind. He even gave some freebies of e-juice (10ml). He told me that he will be adding drip tips on his site and i'll be ordering that as well on my next buy. I got some USA Mix and Cola. The cola is fine but the USA Mix is not that much on flavor.

I am very partial to two piece designs. I have an ego and enjoy it frequently, although it is not convenient for hanging outta your mouth while doing stuff.

 

[scubasteve25]

i dont think so, mainly cause im in the US and it would have to go through our customs. im thinking of just getting the one from totallywicked, just for the fact that i get 2 atomizers, and more carts, janty has a 55$ model but from what i read they batteries are "sketchy" and i only get 1 atty and 5 carts. so i dont know. i guess ill have to do more research before i make a final decision, wanted to get some input here tho

got mine in 5 days

You will love the Joye eGo!

If it were me, I would not get the TW kit. If you look at their starter kit, you will notice that it only comes with the standard 510 charger and an adapter to connect the eGo battery to it. You need to buy the fast charger as a separate accessory for $13. I took a quick look at the other two kits you were looking at and they both had the fast charger listed in the description. (Double check me before ordering.)

What this means for you is:

The TORNADO uses a 3.5 volt, 650 mAh battery to provide the user with an excellent long lasting battery.

This means however, with its regular mains chargers it can take upto 4 hours to charge.

The MEGA Powered TORNADO USB Charger recharges the TORNADO Batteries in 90 minutes.

Quote is from TW website.

Definitely, do your research and shop around. I have seen these kits on sale for as low as $55 stateside, but I don't know if these are actual Joye products. I personally am a healthcabin.net fan, but I can see how going through customs can make you nervous.

Having a kit with two cones is nice, just in case one goes missing. Also, definitely try the low resistance atomizers out. Just make sure you don't let you cart go completely dry, or they can blow out easily.

Hope this helps.

Oh, forgot ... Happy Birthday!!!

I noticed the cignot kit gave you the choice of round or flat tip carts. If you do try the low resistance atomizers, I recommend the round carts. For me, the flat tip ones get too hot when used with a LR atty.

im thinking of just getting the one from totallywicked, just for the fact that i get 2 atomizers, and more carts

The pre-filled carts that come with the kit are no big deal. After you use the first one, you'll be refilling it from an ejuice bottle anyway. I just want to make sure you're not planning on buying pre-filled carts like you did with the blu.

im really just looking for a "bang for my buck" kinda deal, i have a little money to spend, and i want a new PV

Happy Birthday Scuba!!

I have a Joye 510, but if I were going to upgrade, which I don't need anytime soon, I'd go with a Joye eGo. I've heard and read great things about it. I got my e-cig from cignot.com. I get my orders in 4 days.

BTW, welcome to the site!!!

 

[humarock]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCUBA! Enjoy the PLUNGE (pun intended)....I too am looking to upgrade now...can't decide, JoyeEgo or the Riva...looking for the same as you, I put a post up to get some response too....I'm looking at ordering on Cignot....I'm also waiting on ModernVapor as Tony is coming out with the LUX which is a 900 batt and pretty sharp looking, he was working on the button as to not 'stick'...it has a diamond accent button...pretty sharp, I hear it is coming online sometime this week. That may be something I add to my 902 I got from him....

That's why I didn't go with eGo but was tempted. I ordered Joye 520 from Jeffery at Wordupecigs. He was very helpful, didn't take advantage of my lack of knowledge and soon I can put my Blu blues behind me. It's great for my drive back and forth to work but the battery life is only 2 hours at best(Blu).
