Folks with EGOS ...if you want to get a good (non-Janty) EGO battery go to Tastyvapor.us. The prices are cheap (650mah $15.00/900mah $18.00)
I am in no way a troll for TV...just wanted to let everyone know these batteries perform exactly as my Janty. It's a good deal so if anyone is on the lookout for a replacement battery you should check out TV. My understanding is once the are gone they are gone.

Ok everything about the eGo is great. (I love mine very very very much) But since there are knockoffs i wish they would really go all out on it. Like chains of LEDs down the side. Multi-color end LEDs that change color down to the cuttoff. Just fun useless stuff like that. I only have the TRex and Stock Tornado batts but the device feels too short. I'd buy a couple 1800mah batts just for the length if they existed.

Just want to second your post - I bought 2 650mah ego batteries from Tasty Vapor (and there $4 charger) on the 10th and have used them exclusively since and they have performed flawlessly - and even though I don't need it - and have been telling myself to cut down on my buying - I couldn't help myself - I just ordered a 900mah today -

BTW - they have regular 510 batteries for just $5:D

Yeah - did the same thing. The 900mah is great! The extra length of it works really nice. Fits in my hand better...not to mention the life of it pretty much lasts all day - and then some!

I purchased two 900mah batteries from Tasty Vapor, and both lasted about two weeks before they died. When I charge them, the charger is green, but the batteries don't work. The light on the battery no longer flashes. Sadly, I already ordered two more (can't have enough backups) but I think these batteries are priced low because of their life span. Buyer beware of the 900mah from TV. The 600 mah batteries have lasted long and performed well. Does anyone know where else to get a cheap 900mah eGo battery?

LiteCig (free shipping on orders $15+), Good Prophets (free shipping $30+), Cignot ($50+ free shipping), WorupEcig (free shipping on all orders), just to name a few. They are genuine Joye (not Janty) and they have at least 30 days warranty (read the fine print, the warranty time may vary). Anyway, those batteries tend to fail early on, if they fail. If they last a month, chances are they will last longer. :facepalm:

The 900 mAh eGos cost 23 bucks or so, the 650 mAh can be had for $18 (LiteCig), but if you consider free shipping and the warranty, it's a no brainer, imo.

Good luck.

That sucks Man on the 900mah from TV. Hope mine lasts longer than that (I mean way longer). If it doesn't I'll let it be known on this thread. So far I've had mine for about 9 days and it seems to be working just as good as my Janty. I guess only time will tell.

Well bro, they lasted that long because they are knockoffs, not real joye batteries!!!
it even says on the page they are not Joye batteries...what do you expect?
chineese junk at it's worst....next time try litecigusa......or anybody who sells the real joye batteries...!:evil:

I assure you that the real Joye/Janty batteries fail too. Early on. So do the Rivas and the Hellos. Blame their circuitry (seems like everybody's copied a somewhat faulty design from Janty and nobody's fixing it). And they are all "Chinese junk," if you will. :D

All batteries are made in China. Only a few mods are manufactured here.

And welcome to the Forum, neighbor.

How about 1300 mAh?

A power status gauge would be soo cool on the batteries!!!
