What voltage do the eGo's run at? I think they will fluctuate as the charge level drops. I have a 900Mah (HHV supplied).

I have a tobacco flavor that seems to have a chocolate taste, almost. When I use my stubby pass-through on the 2nd setting (3.8 volts) it has less of that taste. When set to 4.2 volts it can almost taste burnt if I draw too long on it. This is not variable volts like the Twist but it has 5 increments of 0.6 volts, starting at 3.2 volts.

I may get a Twist when these batteries start failing.

A regular eGo-C battery fires at around 3.3 volts. An eGo-C Upgrade (with the two modes) fires either at a constant 3.3 volts (regulated and constant) or from 3.6-4.2 volts (unregulated, depending on battery charge state), but it's not true variable voltage. The second mode only gives you the unregulated current of the battery which is a little higher than the constant 3.3 volts of the first mode. The eGo-C Twist is true variable voltage from 3.2-4.8 volts.

Are the increments in 0.1 with a Twist?

The twist has 3.2 marked, then 4.0, then 4.8, spread out like ruler, I don't know if that makes sense, but you just sorta eyeball it in the in-betweens, as you "twist" it to a higher setting. Since I stay at 3.2 always, this is not an issue for me. The lines and numbers are very tiny (that may have improved, mine is around 4 months old).

Variable voltage! Unlike the stubby which I would consider multi-voltage.
The indicator marks on the Twist's dial are in .2v increments with numbers marked every .8v. But, the dial is smooth turning, so in effect, you can fine tune it however slightly you turn it.

Semantics.

For the first time ever, I have no EGOs in my vaping kit. I made out pretty well with my gear purchasing, and my mod menagerie now looks like this:

Provari Mini
Vmod 2.0
REO Mini 14500
2x Robust 14500 (one square, one round)
Vision Spinner 1300
2x Cubica 650 (one black, one white)
2x KR510 350 (one black, one white)
VAMO-rest in pieces

Oh and Foo, if anyone can identify this RBA it is you. Does this look familiar to you?

I have one from Discount Vapers. They call it the Wyvern. Other places have it but call it other things. It's a good RBA and comes with a ring to go over eGo threads. The ring itself has no threads, though, and just spins in place if it's on an eGo.

EDIT: Got Vapes calls it the Fahrenheit
