Inroducing at GotVapes - The Exciting NEW SLB eGo-V True Variable Voltage Pass Through eGo 3.0-6.0v with LCD Screen in BLACK, STAINLESS & Gray

[badkolo]

when i had it plugged in on my pc it was working as a passthrough when it was low with this slb version, but ill look into it for you, dont miss out on this, its a great unit and even he likes it and the voltages are pretty spot on and we feel the quality of the slb version is much better.

Yes, please keep us informed. It's not the one PBusardo reviewed as stated before. I was just confused because so many devices are coming out that are similar that I'm all mixed up in my head.

And thanks for bringing us all the latest toys from the vaping world. I swear you have it before 99% of the vendors out there.

Just to be clear, the Kgo VV is different than the SLB VV???

From what I understand, yes. At least that's what I've been told in this thread.

I believe wolandepiphanius was referring to the KgoVV, if SLB EgoV is the same as KgoVV then according to PBusardo's, it's not a true real pass-thru.

It does look very similar to the Kgo-VV. SLB told me that this was exclusively theirs, so there may be some changes to it, but it does look similar.

It does work as a pass-thru when plugged in, but I don't know if it draws from the battery and just charges or not.

Forgive my ignorance but what would be the difference? I don't see any. It's still putting out whatever voltage you have set and when not in use it's charging.

We want fresh electons going to the coil, not those lazy electrons that have just been sittin around in the battery

I don't find that ignorant, or invalid. I don't see the difference either. But, maybe there is one that I am unaware of. As long as a the device still charges once I let the button go, I am fine with it.

If you are talking about the Ego-VV PassThru he got from the Florida vendor, that is a different unit. The one he tested is from TrueMan, I believe. I have that one also, and it had some issues, and is much bigger than the SLB. They use the same connection style though.

Update: I just noticed that I held them with my middle finger. It wasn't intentional. i'm not flipping anyone off.

That's a flippin' great pic!! (pardon the pun) especially with the eyeball peekin' out from around the flippin' finger!

That's not ignorant at all. I didn't know the difference until I watched PBusardo talk about it. If there's not enough juice left in the battery to power your atomizer, and if it's drawing power from the battery, you won't be able to use it even when plugged in until the battery charges enough to have enough juice. Does that make sense? I usually don't make sense.

Yes, it does Woland. It means it's not direct current. It's got to go thru the battery supply first, then out to your atomizer. 2 step process instead of one steady direct current

Badkolo said he's going to test this, but haven't seen any post from him yet about this. It's great that a vendor lets us know if they aren't sure. I hope it's a real pass-thru. I have an ego-c pass-thru but it's not VV. I would really love a real pass-thru VV. I'm hoping this is it.

 

[badkolo]

yes guys and gals, i didnt forget, just draining the battery to get low so i can test it. illl update once im there

Technical limitations of the USB specs won't allow the full range given in VV vaping from a USB port on a computer or a USB power supply because they don't provide enough amperage... so it makes sense that they have it setup to vape direct from the battery only since the battery can supply the required amperage and the USB plugin can not.

Vaping at 3.3 volts with a 1.5 ohm carto/atty would require 2.2 amps... The most a typical USB power supply can provide is 2.1 amps

That does make pretty good sense. Besides, I like pass-thru batteries from work. I use them out at break, and plug them in when at my desk. Since we can't vape in the office, I kind of have to sneak my puffs in. But, it always stays fully charged.

 

[Robby]

Doesn't make a difference to me, just as a side note I noticed the itaste also uses the battery power when charging on the computer and not passed through power. Wouldn't let me take a drag at 3.7 for a few minutes when the battery was just about dead. Not something that would stop me from buying a device though.

 

[Black Strat]

Thanks for heads-up Dan, just ordered two of the silver.

I have the Kgo version as far as i know there about the same thing and man there sweet. put the vivi nova min tank one it and the 2.8 ohm head and its sweet the. If you havent got one this is a great battery. I get about 12 hours my vape pace with the nova and with a duel coil 2.0 ohms seems to cut the time the charges last down to about 5-6 hours. you can use dual coild on it but i my self think that if you get a mini vivi nova tank and the 3 ml tank adapter you will be very happy.

ok mine had 1 bar, i plug it in and all the bars are showing, and they are charging, so form what it looks like here using my computers usb which is a full output one, it seems to be working as a passthrough, dont shoot me if im wrong, but this is what the slb versions looks like from what im testing here.
