Um. Except that eGo connector is not really a connector... Those outside threads on eGo batteries were designed for optional beauty cones we used back then to cover the skinny atties/cartos that looked funny on wider (than cigalikes) eGos. They are not electrical connectors--the electrical connector is the 510 pin.

Besides, I don't use any eGo-threaded toppers anymore. All my atomizers are now 510-threaded only.

Yes, but with either adjustable or spring loaded pins they still provide a much more stable mechanical connection helping to ensure a reliable electrical one.

Yes--but only for eGo-sized toppers. If you use eGo-threaded atties, they are nice. Even though they are also prone to thread stripping, as those beauty eGo threads are usually soft.

Most new tanks (stock and RBAs) are 19-23 mm in diameter, so eGo connection doesn't help any.

And ego threads are long, ungainly, and unsightly. The P3 threads are refined and elegant, like Kat and Kat.

She's got better legs, though... Mine are kinda less elegant. :lol:

Okay, kinda obnoxious posting this, but this is why I prefer unregulated for mini mods. Big vape (Mini Buddha :)) powered by an 18650 in a really little package. Unfortunately had to make it myself.
