Awesome. Got mine from Nicotine Nirvana for their July 4th $57 dual kit (thanks halonut!!!) and have been using it for a week now. Absolutely love it! I actually prefer to use it without the atty cover because of the "sweat" buildup...and the vapor production is still great. I saw the eGo mega atty/cart and want to try it (vs. the 510 megas)...especially since it's the same diameter as the battery, so the appearance is much more attractive then the 510s. Anyone using either eGo megas or 510 megas on the eGo? I'm looking for some good input and a good (i.e., cheap) supplier. Thanks.

5-10 minutes???? :facepalm: cough, cough :censored: cough cough.

I might have exaggerated on the charge time. If you need an exact time charging it's roughly at 5 minutes when I don't use the batteries much and 20 minutes to get it fully charged on a dead battery. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

Mine takes 2 hours and from what I've read from others theirs takes 2 hours as well. Using the fast charger. My 510 took about an hour and a half. And my blu took about an hour. I use my batteries until they are dead.

I just checked the janty website and it says less than 2 hours. No way does it charge as fast as you are saying. I strongly disagree with you.

Icey, I take it you are not using them until the batts are dead then? I have used my 650mah batts till dead and on the fast USB charger it usually takes ~2 hours. However, some days (a lot lately cause I have been sick) I don't vape all that much but want to put a fresh charge on the batt I was using that day. It will charge up pretty quick in that case.

Regardless, the USB quick charge is noticeably faster then using the "other" charger for the eGo/Tornado, and it is nice to have them charge so quickly. My batts for my mods take forever to charge, but the mah rating of the charger and the size of the batts I am using have everything to do with this.

My ego batteries are 650 mah that charges up to 30 minutes max. The hello battery I just ordered charges at exactly 1hr. Sorry if the information got mixed but this is what I get from charging it. The hello battery is 1300 mah.
No way. Impossible. Are you really gonna make me email cignot to confirm that it will not take 30 mins to charge their Joye ego batts? Maybe just maybe, you charged the batts one time when you first got them before use, not realizing that the batts come with a charge. Otherwise you have a special magical charger.

I will double check and get a timer.

A nice addition to the Ego is the Mega Cart. The mega carts hold about twice the drops as the standard cart. You can still use blue foam and pyramid tea bags on the megas, you just don't have to cut off as much of the PTB when you insert the first time and trim the overhang.

My Ego batts charge in +/- 2 hours also if I wait for the blink before charging. My AC charger is 5v at 500ma which is the same capacity as the average USB port on a PC. Maybe Icey got a 1500mah charger with his kit, but I suspect that he has the same one Cignot sent me in the Cignot branded box. Mine also has the Cignot logo laser etched on the end of the battery, just like his.

I got in on the PS sale and chose a stainless steel eGo. I had been vaping on a 510 for almost 4 months -- puting my money mainly into juices to begin with. But with my upgrade to the eGo, I can see what all the hoopla is about. It really pleasantly and vastly improves the vaping disposition, LOL -- not having to be constantly charging and rotating. I also started dripping a week ago, and I find that I never get juice in my mouth anymore, so I will be ordering the eGo dripping mouthpiece for around the house and cartos or mega cargs for when I'm on the go.

I am happy for you, as your excitement and enthusiasm really shows in your post. Very nice review, thank you.:)

Actually, there's no difference at all. Both manual and automatic makes the same amount of vape for the Joyego. It's a little tough to carry the automatic in my mouth because instead of trying to hold it on my lips I hold it on my teeth instead.

Both doesn't stop when I take a very long drag so there isn't an automatic stop system for me to do that, which is another thumbs up on too.

Sorry if I hadn't mentioned this but also the charge time is about 5-10minutes which is very quick.
Hummmmmmmm???
