It shouldn't as long as you pick 510 and are happy with it. I personally haven't been successful with 801's and don't really care for them but others swear by them. My advice with this type of investment stick with what you are used to and comfortable with. Also I stand corrected regarding the repair service and have to ask them some more questions as the site doesn't mention the Joker for the service just the other mods they carry.

I'm in a similar position where I'm looking to get something to keep my eGo company. Besides I am "saving" money by not buying analogs and have money to burn, right?

I keep hearing about 5v being the sweet spot but have concerns about getting a HV device and finding that it doesn't work for me - the variable PV's like the Joker and Buzz caught my attention.

I really like the looks and quality seen in reviews and am impressed with the 5v GLV but again I'm concerned that the HV doesn't work out for me. Again, the variable PV's seem the way to go... Maybe after trying a variable PV

How long are batteries lasting with your Joker and/or Buzz?

I don't think you going to a 5v is going to be too much of a problem, you can always take shorter hits, now 6v and up you may or may not like. Also don't forget that they are selling a couple of add ons now that look like cartomizer tubes to decrease your voltage from 6 to 5 though they may look awkward cuz it makes your pv longer.

I'm charging my batteries 3x per day on the joker but I vape heavy. so in sum the 3 charges last me until the next morning so lets say 1 full day plus some for heavy vaping.

Not sure I'm following "charging my batteries 3x per day". With my eGo I start with a freshly charged battery (other battery goes on the charger for 2hrs). The fresh battery will last about 8-9 hrs when it gets swapped for the recharged battery.

Sounds like you can go at least 8-9 hrs (1 full day plus) on a fresh charge. Is this about right?

Sorry, if I'm being dense here - want to get up to speed on batteries as I get into mods.

Ok darlings, so I think I'm ready to upgrade from my Ego and I'm jumping all over the place as to what to get next. Right now I'm using an Ego with a low res atomizer. (I can't make myself go back to a normal 510 atty.)

What should I look at? I've heard lots of good stuff about the Chuck. Also looking at the Joker and the Sparkplug. Also, anyone have experience with the wetbox? Seems kind of cool but I'm unsure.

Really I just want to create enough flavor and vapor that my face melts.


Get a GLV 5v from greatlakesvapor.com

you wont look back..

my pretty green Joker came in the mail this morning. I already love it! Feels entirely different than the Ego. Now to just play with voltage til I find out what I like.

Yay!
Cool - keep us informed. I've been eying them:p.

Hey speaking of mods is anyone familiar with a vypr? I just traded an ego kit for one. Fine time to ask this but are they any good?
thanks
