Bro I just ordered my Mega eGo from litecigusa.net..

There mega package offers a 900 mAh battery, that lasts me TWO days on HEAVY vapage..

I totally recommend an eGo or Mega eGo if you dont like refilling or want an all day battery..

Look at my review a little bit further down.

And I like the tropical flavors, pineapple, blueberry, raspberry, they are all delicious man.

Hi and welcome to ECF, eGo have a 5+ charge life for the 650 battery, and longer for their bigger batteries. GoGo has a long bettery life and are highly recommended by many but they are proprietary and not a good choice for an only PV because they have a 3 mil cartomizer, you don't want to try to sample juices 3 mil at a time. The VaporKing from V4L have a shorter battery life but an attractive pocket sized personal charging case can be used to charge your batteries on the go.

The ego and V4L are two completely different animals. If you want something that has a very long battery life, go with the ego. Batteries last long and it's versatile. You can drip, use cartomizers, carts & atty. You can buy a tank for it if you like.

If you want something thinner, go with the V4L. You can get XL batteries, but it really is super long. But you do get a good vape with it as well.

The ego is a little less expensive.

**I don't have a go go so I can't give advice on that. It does have a big battery and holds a lot of juice. The only drawback I can see is you can't really 'sample' juice with it. Once you fill the carto your pretty committed. But lots of positive things on the board about it.

You can't go wrong with any of the three.

I have an ego and a 510 (smaller) I use for running around. Happy with both of them.

Good luck!

The eGo is amazing.. I just got it today. And the draw really depends on whether you use an Atomizer/Cartridge or a Cartomizer. A Cartomizer is basically two in one. Filling it requires a syringe, but I'm telling you if you know what smooking hookah is like then a Cartomizer is exactly like that..

The draw, vapor, and taste is excellent.

With an Atomizer/Cart it's like an 8, 8, and taste depends on e-juice.

With a Cartomizer it's a 10, 10, and again depends on the e-juice.

Draw is excellent on an ego.

I haven't tried a lot of pvs, but I've tried the Smoke Tip, V4L, 510 and Joye ego. Of the 4, and this is just my personal opinion, I like the ego the best. Not that the others are bad- I'd be happy with any of them (the Smoke Tip didn't have enough Th for me) and they're all excellent.

The price is good on the ego, I got it at Liberty Flights and they have an excellent warranty (but so does the V4L). I get about 8 hours on the 650 battery, on the 1000 mah battery about 24 hours. It's simple to use. I use boge cartomizers and you can get a pack for about $7-$8 for 5.

I'd get juice from a juice vendor. Again that's just personal preference. I'm not too fond of LF or V4L juice. But that's just me.

I'm not trying to dissuade you from the GoGo. There's tons of reviews on the board with a lot of positive things posted about it.

I prefer cartomizers, so the gogo or v4l would be my preference, but any of them are fine. The GoGo will last the longest both in battery life and cartomizer life, but its more difficult to test flavors with (though 808 adapters are available). The ego doesn't have this problem. The Igo and Leo also feature giant cartomizers, and seem to have somewhat better build quality then the GoGo.... but they cost more. The Leo is the most expensive, but the flavor is easily the best of the three. The others have superior vapor production.
There are also very large cartomizers for the ego, but I haven't tried them. There are now many good options for an e-cig and carto combo that will last you all day -- almost any choice you make will be a good one.

Of the ones you mentioned, I'd say the eGo or it's less expensive twin the Riva. However, you might want to take a look at the e-power at madvapes. It's similar in styling to the eGo but, it uses a generic battery. That's a big plus when you need to replace them and none of these bats last forever.

the GO GO would be even better for newbies.....much easier and much less tinkering or filling or topping off or refilling or replacing or charging.....................

So hows the draw on the ego? Do you get that smoking feeling? Yea, looks like the gogo is for those who have been using for awhile.

My vote is the Ego... great battery life, not too big, still very stylish, and it performs really well. Also, it'll take any 510 atty or carto... you can pop carts on when you're feeling lazy, use attys with a cartridge, or even drip... all in one device! I think the Ego will keep you happier for longer if you end up enjoying vaping (which you will). You'll outgrow the other devices very quickly, but the ego will keep you satisfied!

Get a Joye eGo 900mah and a Cisco LR 510 atomizer - you can get the eGos from lots of vendors, you can get the Cisco atties at avidvaper.com

I also highly recommend the Brother ecig kit from avidvaper.com but the LR 510 (1.5 ohm) is a must with either an eGo or a Brother.

Cisco atomizers are the best performing atomizers on the market - not the cheapest, but absolutely the best.

Havent tried Cisco 510s... but I have tried their LR 306s (which also fit 510 threads, for the new guys) and I've had great results. They're really, really tough and make for a wonderful vaping experience...

Ikenvape.com makes some pretty amazing attys too... definitely on-par with the Ciscos. Ive yet to kill one from either vendor, and they both perform about the same for me!

Both IKV and Cisco make great stuff. Subjective differences aside, I'd recommend the 510 over a 306 to a newer user for ease of use. That being said I do greatly prefer the vape from a LR510 over a LR306.

Other than that, Cisco has more reliable stock than IKV.

510s are easier, you're probably right... I prefer to drip, so 306s are better for me.

There's a reason IKVs stock is unreliable ; )
