Tornado arrived, not as impressed with the kit as it has the original 510 charger with a small adapter that takes FOREVER! to charge. The box it came in is not as nice, and the TW logo is on the tip, no logo on the silver band by the button. I did notice the manual in the tornado states 650mAH and the ego states 600mAH. I have to say I think the ego is a much better deal, I saved a few bucks on the tornado but overall I love the ego kit and warranty. If my wife does not use the tornado it will be up for sale in the classifieds soon!

LOL goes to show if you take to many short cuts your bound to get cut short. lol thats a good quote.... by the way i went with Janty eGo and it works great with a quick charge rate as well.

The eGo IS 650 mAH - the manual is wrong. I know, i wrote it.

*cough*

I had to buy the Tornado instead as my local Janty supplier iVapour was having some troubles. No doubt I'll grab a Janty one in time

I got the white one, its beautiful!!

The best thing about dripping with the eGo is that even if you do flood the atty, the liquid isn't going to run down the side of the battery thanks to the atty cover : )

Yesss!! That is a great feature!! There is no way my 801 atties can take more than 3 drops hehe, the 510 takes the same amount

Do you drip with the cone on or off and which is the best way?

 

[BammBamm]

Either way works quite well indeed, TM.

And, please forgive my lack of detail; I'm trying to pad my post count (need 15+, so that I may post links).

The eGo kicks major .... Period.

Was it a dream ?
Or is the Janty stick v3 supposed to come with better batteries than the original janty stick?

These are 360mAH like the older ones...
is there any better battery out there in this size?
They last about 30 puffs then die.

 

[tmbrown327]

I've found a few low performers, but even they last more than 30 puffs. I usually get all day of light to moderate vaping out of mine when I'm at work and don't vape as much. The rest of the time, I'm plugged in, either in the car or at home.

 

[tribalmasters]

I have a USB battery tethered all day so I don't even use the second battery Unfortunately it involves a wire but you can remove it from the battery to vape on the battery inside the Stick until it does

 

[tribalmasters]

Thanks Bamm Bamm! I did drip with the cone on and it works!! Some juice does get inside but its easy to wipe away

 

[JustJulie]

I drip, and I only drip 2-3 drops at a time. I'm verrrrrrrrrrrrrry lazy, so I often remove the cone and simply tailpipe. (I hate taking the empty mouthpiece on and off, especially when it's new and quite snug.)

I do NOT tailpipe while walking or driving, because I'm afraid if I had an accident, I'd damage my mouth/teeth. But if I'm sitting around the house, then I mostly have the cover off and no mouthpiece.

I can see Mik cringing as he reads this. I know . . . so tacky. And it does affect the flavor of the vape . . . harsher.

 

[St_Francisco]

I drip my eGo, and use 2-3 drops depending on the liquid. When I use Janty Polar Mint, the magic number is 2. With other liquids, sometimes it's 3. But I wouldn't go any more than that.

 

[quovadis]

Yes
using it as a PT is the only other option.
I was hoping those batteries came in a higher mAH...but they do not.

 

[BammBamm]

Agree w/ 'Cisco: 2 drops of Polar Mint in the atomizer, top off the cart, and you're good to go.

 

[BammBamm]

Shame on you, Ethan! The folks over at PeTA are gonna be none too happy with you

Okay, so you're not usin' a 12-gauge. Your likely weapons of choice are a six-pack of Old Milwaukee and a chloroform-soaked shop rag. Have fun chasin' snow bunnies around that Swiss Alp ski lodge.

Wow. I ain't even met the guy, and already I'm slammin' 'im. This ad hominem attack of mine will prob'ly get me kicked off this-here e-Cig Forum fer sure!

 

[mellowdowneasy]

Hmm, that's strange. Most of the times it fails, I'm giving it a fairly aggressive press, so I don't think it's a button contact issue...but I don't know.

The carts thing is also strange. The traditional "yellow" RY4 carts they sent me taste like RY4. The red ones have a very distinct fruity strawberry type taste to them.

I got my V3 6 days ago,didnt even look at the extra carts.Just now took the whole pack out of the box held them up to a window and I could see the red. Not bad!! kinda fruity, but really taste like ry4.

Just now opened the box of carts that came with the stick and they are yellow.They taste the same,might be free old carts?.(when I got the V3 i just pulled my cart out of my V2 and started up)

I did have 1 bottle of ry4 that went red 1 time last summer. I just use TW liquid now. 10 bucks for such a small bottle is a bit much. But as I vape the red cart now as I write this it does taste really good.

 

[bugeater]

Looks like they're all sold out now When do you guys expect to get more?

 

[tmbrown327]

I this thread, after my last post, someone said the trustfire batts at 600 mAH lasted twice as long. Not sure if I believe that, but might be worth trying...
