The nuvocig was the first e-cig I actually saw, first hand. There is a kiosk in a local mall selling them, and the salesperson there allowed me to sample one (sent the cartridge home with me, of course), and I did not proceed with a purchase at that time. This is the only retail outlet locally that has e-cigs.
A week a later a friend of mine appeared with a 510 purchased from madvapes.com (great site), and I finally dove in. This was a little over a month ago.
A week after purchasing the 510s, I also returned to the mall and purchased a nuvocig kit, just to try it, and I'm glad I did.
The nuvocig comes with an auto battery, larger than the 510, longer lasting, a larger vaporizer, and 5 prefilled carts.
I have to say, the nuvocig prefilled carts are disgusting. Seriously.
And there is not mention on their site (nuvocig.com) of eliquids, juice, etc.
Apparently, they expect all users to continue to purchase their prefilled carts, at a cost of roughly $2.00/cartridge. I would not recommend their prefilled cartridges.
But, if you refill them with some good juice, you're good to go!
Here are the nuvocig pros (then cons):
Larger, longer lasting battery than a 510, lasts up to 10 hours, in my experience.
Smooth full hits (don't know if this is due to larger size, or what).
Aluto battery (this is my preference, especially when driving (no hands!), no button to get stuck, or inadvertently pressed in your pocket, etc.
Durable, long lasting vaporizer/atomizer unit.
Cons:
Nasty, nasty prefilled carts. Yuck.
The cartridges don't hold a lot of fluid (about half what my 510 carts hold).
Auto battery (con for those who drip or prefer manual).
I did drip into one of these, and lost the battery.
When driving, especially, and also for sheer convenience (no button, unit fits nicely in pocket), I like the nuvocig.
So, it's the hardware I like. Also, the local retailer is a pretty cool guy (while the company pushes their carts, last I saw this guy, to buy another kit, he filled my cartridge up with some peanutbutter juice. Tasty!). The company, itself, it seems, is simply bent on a profit by selling their nauseating prefilled carts, which doesn't speak much for service or respect of the customer, but, I like the hardware.
For all I know, there may be comparable hardware elsewhere. I don't know.
A month after having both products, the 510 kit and the nuvocig, my 510 atomizers have quit on me, but the nuvocig continues to function great (with the exception of the one battery I killed dripping).
As for the kits, the nuvocig kit, at $29, came with only 1 battery and atomizer, plus 5 carts, and either a car/usb charger OR and ac charger. (This is why I purchased 2 kits, to have both chargers, and 2ea. battery and atomizer).
For only a few dollars more, madvapes has the 510 kits with two batteries, two atomizers, and 5 carts, and an ac/usb charger combo thingy, which allowed me to charge in the car as well as at home.
