So I love my Joye 5`0 but want an ecig with some serious battery life. I was wanting to purchase an ego xl. I know i need a charger, battery ,and a cone. Curious to see if i can use a standard 510 atty, if so what type of cone would i get also i only use drip tips so what kind would I need for it to function? I love this site cause the price s low and i can wait. If you wouldn't mind letting me know what i need and if the site has it i would be very greatful My Ecig Supply - The best place to get e-cigarette, e-liquid, e-juice, joye 510, KR808D, dse901, cartomizers, electronic cigarettes, and much more!

I would buy at Liberty-Flights.com (press the 20% off first). They have decent prices, real Joye Ego and state their warranties.

Ask LF about the cone. I don't know what an Ego cone fits over, whether you need a 510 extender to lift a short atty high enough to poke out the cone. I don't use Ego. I use Riva 510 (the Liberty-Flights kits which are the new model from a specific manufacturer and are a bit higher voltage than other Rivas and Ego). Riva 510 is a clone that does use a standard 510 atty. Riva 510 can use the shorter Riva 901 cone which I know fits over a Boge carto and leaves plenty of carto poking out to vape. I imagine the cone that comes with the kit fits over the attys it comes with fine but I don't use attys (just a 306 atty on a manual 510 to test juices). But Riva cones don't fit Ego.

Hopefully someone else will know about the Ego cone.

You need an Ego kit or alternately Ego batteries and an Ego charger cable. LABEL the Ego charger cable when you get it - it can damage slim 510. I believe (not positive) that the type A tube is the slim tube atty - what I do NOT know is whetehr Ego now has a built-in cone on them (one piece atty and cone) or if they use extra long attys or normal short 510 attys - I have no idea.

Note - Re Ego - the Riva 510 is a popular clone (at least the LF higher voltage model) but if you buy something called "Ego" I recommend you buy Joye or Janty brand ONLY (original manufacturer) for good quality.

The standard eGo cone just smooths out the profile of the e-cig, no practical purpose. The cone on a Riva 510 (eGo clone) will wrap around the entire atty, but if you use a drip tip, you should still be able to puff. I don't have an eGo, not sure about its cone. Yes, all standard 510 attys will work with eGo/Riva.

The best thing to do is get a new kit, comes with everything, may be cheaper than buying separately. Do not use the USB charger for eGo/Rivas on regular 510 batts.

Edit: you can also buy a couple eGo batts or an eGo passthrough from link you provided.
