One question
What does it do? *dead silence* why is everyone looking at me like that!! I mean is it for charging more than one battery or different types of battery?
What does it do? *dead silence* why is everyone looking at me like that!! I mean is it for charging more than one battery or different types of battery?
currently i only know of 5-slot and 10-slot chargers for the dura and minifogger (Joye510/306) other batteries are possible with the adapters some use to vape on different batteries.
e.g. like that.
not sure what mik has in mind, we will see
The one in the picture, is similar to the 10 slots we will carry!
I have a 5 slot unit for 510 batts I got from TW. It's the bomb! I have 5 Mega batts and they're always ready to go.
Mik - you told me that a reg 510 charger like the one mentioned above would NOT work on the new eGo batt. Will this unit you're talking about charge both eGo batta AND 510 batts?

WHOOOA DO WANT!!!!!!!!!!!
Bye bye USB battery pack I don't need you now I have the 10 slot charge everything charger
Bye bye Janty stick V2 now I have many normal shaped batteries with long life charged at once so no need for passthrough on Stick all day! Of course, the big Stick with bigger battery will be very nice indeed
Just waiting for iVapour to stock the Ego so I can join in on the action

*cough* don't want to pull you down tribal, but until mik says otherwise, this is a 510/dura charger. all other batteries are screwed in using adapters
Not to rain on anyone's parade but I think your right it does sound like the battery life is good on Ego! I could even use my USB battery to charge the batteries on the go!!!!!!!

Hehe, - i believe it is possible to screw in the eGo, it will just cover an additional slot hole in the process, - and take 6 hours to charge ( as opposed to the 1.5 hours approx on its own charger )
It's done. I'm converted. Sure I messed around with other suppliers for a bit but I am DONE! The eGo arrived today and so far is everything I hoped it could be! I just made a review:
eGo vs. Protege, Stick, Everything I Own!
Aside from the eGo being a great product, Janty (namely Ethan) has been impeccable in his customer service. In fact, it was because of this customer service that I purchased the new eGo, even though I thought the Protege was (finally) serving me well as my primary device.
A few months back, I had just placed an order for a backordered Prodigy when I won a Janty Stick in a raffle. Immediately, the stick became my primary device. Once the Prodigy arrived, I used it some... but loved that I didn't ever worry about the batteries dying in the Stick as it has the built-in USB (just like my phone). So, immediately, I had chargers everywhere. The car, work, home... Not to mention the computer as well.
I'll be the first to admit, I don't take extra special loving care of my PVs. They get put in the pocket with my keys, left in cupholders with change in the car... I'm not one to wear a Janty Stick (or a cellphone, or my leatherman) on a clip on my belt. Otherwise, I'd need a utility belt to carry all my stuff and walking down the street you'd think I was coming over to fix your TV! =) But I digress.
My stick was a great device, the ONLY device I carried. After a few months of extremely frequent and satisfying use, the plastic was scratched and the "button sticky" was wearing out and peeling off, fluid was starting to leak out of the USB port. I wasn't disappointed. It lived a good, albeit short, life... Full of "I can't believe you treat your PV like that, I keep mine on a leash around my neck!" moments. I ordered another, planning on the eventual death of my device.
The second stick arrived and I put it away, still in the box, still shiny and new. A month later, and about a month ago, the old stick died... One day it just stopped charging. Not upset, I gingerly opened up my new stick like a kid at Christmas only to find it... DOA! 8-o
I had since given away or sold all my other devices, save a few 510s... So quickly I sent a note to Janty, noting my woes. My old 510 batteries were draining faster than I could charge them (one at a time!). A few days went by and I grew impatient, and irritated. For the first time in 6 months, I bought a pack of cigarettes. I ordered a Protege. It came, the button was broken. Sent it back. Ordered 510 mega batteries and multicharger. About a week ago I sent another note to Janty not expecting to hear back. To my delight, Ethan responded immediately... Apparently there was an issue with the ticket system, my first complaint was never received! Within a day, Ethan had sent me 2 new sticks and I put mine in the mail headed back to Janty. THIS is customer support! I ordered the eGo, it arrived today and is already my primary device. I can't say enough good things about it, and will recommend ONLY this device, and company to friends in the future... Thanks Janty!
~M.
P.S. It was only AFTER hearing back from Ethan that I began "re-researching" Janty (and stumbling upon the eGo). I see the Stick is now V3, and fingers crossed that Ethan sent me those... in matte black! Haha! If not, I may have to buy a 3rd stick! =)

Yeah, Janty is pretty awesome. Especially Ethan.
I was charged twice for a JS 510 adapter, not only did he credit my account for the mistake, but he sent me the second adapter anyway!
I'll always check Janty first when in the market for a new PV because I know if anything goes wrong they won't hesitate to make it right.

I am charging my new Janty Stick v3 right now .. It came today from Heavens Gifts .. I notice there is an arrow on the button .. The button turns .. Does turning the button do anything ?? Adjust the draw or nothing at all ??
Hokie, when you turn the button from one extreme to the other, are you able to press the button down? IOW, does turning the button, say completely clockwise, lock the button?
Asked and answered in another thread I think. It's supposed to be the Janty logo, not an arrow, and it doesn't (isn't designed to) do anything when it's turned.
I think that is just janty's logo. Turning the button has no effect on the stick. It looks like a really cool unit how do you like it? Sorry all ready answered
I don't have a full charge yet, so I have only taken a few hits from it. The rubber finish is really nice. The red light looks nice glowing next to the black .. The button turns and turns and turns and never stops - so it isn't a lock or draw adjustment.
I got my eGo a week ago and it is going to be difficult to put it down to use the Stick v3 ..
My next hardware order will be the ego or the stick V3, be sure to keep this updated as to which one is the winner in your opinion and why.
Atm I'm leaning toward the ego.
