Hey all question about bigger battery

[owutaqt]

Does anyone know what the difference is between an Ego and say a tornado or a Riva?

I have been doing 510's for the first 6 weeks and like them, but I would like a better battery.

Are the knock offs just as good?

What about the hello 016

From what I've read the Riva has a bigger battery than the Ego, but other than that they are pretty close to being the same.
I would stay away from knockoffs. The Ego is not that expensive.

The Riva does have a bigger battery and it's compatible with all of the 510/eGo parts. I think the Tornado and the Hello016 are also bigger, but don't quote me. I'm not sure if they're compatible with 510 parts, either.

Bigger battery really only means it lasts longer? I know that a Riva is a "knockoff" of an Ego and if I am correct that is what a Tornado is as well? Right?

I just checked and it looks like the Hello016 is compatible with 510 parts and it's a 1300mAh battery which should last a long time.

Any eGo made by Joye Tech is considered a genuine eGo. They make janty , joy , tornados and some other names. Usually the warranty on those is much longer then the ones considered knock off like the Riva, bauway, BSE. The hello 016 is about the highest rated Mah out of them all. But to use a cone on it you have to use there atomizer with built on cone. Also seen a few complain the hello 016 has died for them after 2 months. joyetech Ego's come in 3 mah raings 600, 900 and the new 1000. The 900 and 1000 are longer then the 600. Riva's have really good reviews in the forums lots of people like them. But to answer your question if knock offs are better i would have to say more then likely not a store like liberty flights that sells both Riva and Joye eGo's warranties the ego for 6 months and the Riva for 2 months.
