Joye Ego Phenomenal Experience.

[Icey]

But, tut tut tut dude. This is not too kewl. You are antagonizing and harassing the OP. Just leave the thread if you're getting nasty and hostile, but don't call him a liar.

He has been since I made a thread about vaporbomb's questionable business practices. I'm reporting him now. I'm sure my family can vouch for this because they have a silver bullet that charges for 2.2hrs and on an ego way less. I'm not lying and we're not lying. I'm getting tired of this forum bullying.

 

[Switched]

Please don't go off in a huff. You are questioning questionable business practices, we are questioning questionable review comments that is all.

Folks that read your review will leave thinking they can charge their eGo batts in 5-10 minutes and then will be totally disappointed that it is not so, then they'll blame you for leading them astray.

 

[Icey]

Well, that's proof for sure! I believe you. More improvements will be seen over the coming times, as competition will be fierce on the miracle of the e-cig. Heck, if they can perfect the tech of satellites, rockets, planet exploration robots, to name only a few, there's probably room for improving battery life and the finding of atomizer bypasses. Doncha think?

The charger is described:

USB connector wall plug in and PC.
Input: DC 5V. 500MA
Output: DC4.2V 420Ma

Happy to upload the image closer of the charger I have if that helps how or why am I getting a faster rate of charging.

Vaporbomb wont sell to me no more. - E-Cigarette Forum

Do you mean these two?

 

[Icey]

Stop trolling my threads, thanks. I have already listed you as one of the flamers going to every post or reply I make to the website master. Thanks for the evidence, keep em coming.


Back to he thread, yes this is the charger I use on it.

You charge the Silver Bullet? I think you mean the battery...or batteries...depending on what configuration you're using...that is believable.

 

[Mr.Self_Destruct]

I just want the truth to be told that's all. Report me all you want.

But this place is research for people, they need to know how things really are. I know I would be very angry if I got an ego and found out that mine for some reason takes 2 hours, when this reviewer I saw on ecf said it takes 10 mins. Then they go complain to the supplier. that's not good for anyone.

Do you see my point? that's why i'm fighting you so hard on this.

 

[Vaporologist]

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.

Wow, this review is loaded with credibility, lol.

 

[Icey]

Nope. I don't own the silver bullet (it's from the place that makes the BB) I only own my Egos from cignot.com and smoke club rn4081 which i dont use anymore

There is something wrong here. Not beating you up and but there is absolutely no way for you to charge a fully depleted 3.7V 650mAh LIon battery with a 500mA 4.2V charger in 20 minutes or 1/2 an hour. It is not physically possible. Either your battery isn't fully depleted, or your charger is turning green early. Since you are experiencing this on multiple batteries, I suspect your charger is giving a false charged reading turning green before it's fully charged.

Additionally, this information is in the product description which I pulled from the joyetech website at www.joyetech.com/ProductsView.Asp?id=70 :

"The eGo can be charged via our SUPERFAST USB CHARGER (1.5-2 hours charging), or you can mount the superfast USB charger to the inluded wall adapter if you are not near a computer."

Don't you think that if they could get it to charge in less than an hour they'd want to advertise it?

You did put together a descent, concise and otherwise accurate but limited review of the product - but claiming a full charge time of 10-20 minutes- has us all scratching our heads. The rest of us are getting more like 2+ hrs and to be quite honest, 2 hrs is a great time as is- its much faster than most other batterys- the important thing is that unlike the standard 510 battery you can fully charge a second eGo battery before running out of power on the one you just took out of the charger.



Other things you might want to consider in your review include comparing it to a standard 510, comparing it to other 3.7V devices, and comparing the standard atty to the LR atty on this device. Others have already done that and have gone to great length tearing apart eGo's, but you have to hunt them down because the forum search engine won't search on "eGo" in the text - it's too short ...



you may do an advanced search and put "eGo" or "joyego" in the tag as opposed to the text search and you'll get a start.....

OK. I understand now... Thanks for the links!

Oh. So when the PLUG IN wall adapter is red, the usb can read it as green? Because that's what I get. How do I fix this?

 

[jimho]

might want to also search on "tornado" in either the text or tag- same animal, different label. - you'll find that discussed in some of the posts as well....

There have been a few issues reported with chargers from the original batch of eGo's. From what I saw, most have been that the chargers aren't working fast enough- not to cause alarm, the sellers seem to have been supporting them.

I just did my very first "fully dead" recharge on an eGo battery today, and it clocked in at ~1.5 hours. Very good for how long the charge lasted (I'd been using it for about 2 1/2 days -- wowza!), but it's no 15-20 minutes.

Also, on the subject of eGo reviewing; dropped my ego HARD on cement today, right out of my hand at mouth level (do NOT try to take a vape, hold coffee, and pet an unruly cat all at the same time!). I figured my eGo was toast, but all that happened was a minor scratch on the battery & the tip popped off of the cart (which wasn't damaged, went back on fine). Monitored the battery's temp pretty closely for a couple hours, no problems, and I'm vaping on it as I type (~ 5 hours after the "incident").

go an ego yesterday from a member here then todd at vaperite sent me a t-rex kit with 2 bats today as well as some great juice...life is good!!!

I've dropped mine plenty- they are pretty sturdy. I did put a ding in one of the cones that now interferes with the airflow a bit. Fortunately my kit came with 2...

Another thing that wasn't mentioned in the review- the cone is part of the design- you certainly can go with or without it, but as I understand, it was engineered to restrict the airflow so your atty runs a bit hotter. If you pay attention it is easier to draw without it in place.

Wow, this thread is still going???

Ya'll just stirring up the pot so he can get off.

I saw a post about Vaporbomb saying they feel the OP should find another supplier (wont deal with the OP again)

Fighting tooth & nail on that one too ?

Look, you & that other guy keep bringing this up. I'm very sorry what I said about vaporbomb but the reconcile offer is still up on their end and I'm willing to patch things up with them. I don't hate them and consider most of their liquids decent, just a misunderstand occurred so I'm asking you very nice to let this go and I did the best to my recollection to let it go too (hence I asked the mod to close my threads). If you can do the same then we can go back to focusing on e-juice and models, alright bud?

As for the Joyego guess I got a little over excite and didn't notice about the charge time when I kept switching before leaving for work. It is between 2hrs -/+ and the light LCD on the chargers was a mix up, anyhow happy vaping and hopefully this will blow over.

Having seen a friend own the eGo and after all the other praise about better life and better vaping, I decided to get two of these babies.
this is what i got

2x Titanium 900mah eGO mega batteries
2x Titanium Cones, 2x Titanium Atomizers, 2x fast usb chargers
10 blank ego cartridges and some juice

Im very eager to give this a go, and it worked out to be better priced to not get a kit (plus the difference in price to get the mega battries were well worth it)
Ive been using a normal 510 and 401 so far, and I am not really impressed with the 401 battery life, if I vaped less frequently it would be fine because I have two batteries and a PCC, but the life is just too short. Im pretty sure Im going to love the eGo once I get it, I cant wait, ive heard nothing but good things

Over all grade product: +A This has officially became my main ecig use. No more RN4081 garbage crap.

Icey, I'm glad you've changed your tone and are trying to reconcile with people you've offended. But in the process, you keep offending other people. Please don't take my post the wrong way. I'm trying to share my thoughts, nothing else.

The statement above, that ended your review of the eGo, was, if you excuse me, unnecessary, impolite and inflammatory. There are plenty of ECF members who happen to use and enjoy the 4081 model, for various reasons. I am one of them. I like 4081 because it approximates a simple act of smoking a cigarette, which many of us like or need to break the bonds with the real thing. I like the size, ease of use, and a very clever design of their cartomizers. This design has been deemed one of the most burn resistant, if not THE most burn resistant, cartomizer on the market today by several people who have tested and autopsied several models, including those from SmokeStik, Good Prophets and Trueman. The new SLB 510 cartomizers employ the very same design as the 4081 cartos, and are quickly becoming very popular among 510 cartomizer users. You can see the design here (posting without WitchWay's permission, so sorry, WW)

You can read more about this design here:

and here:

So, before you proclaim something to be "garbage" and "crap," you may want to educate yourself a bit.

So sorry everyone for hijacking your thread. Please forgive me.
