I ordered 3 ego twist and 3 vv with battery led from e-liquid.cn . Only 2 of the ego's worked and 1 of the vv. So it's a crap shoot ordering from China. Not sure if US vendors will exchange doa products or not. I ordered 5 bottom coil tanks from vaporalley and all were juice straws and they wouldn't do anything about it. Could have got 10 from China for the same price. Then I could have had 10 juice straws.

If you decide to go with the Ego-V mentioned above from Fasttech, note that while it does a good job out of the box you may have trouble with the center pin getting pushed down a lot. Mine broke off from the power wire after about 2 weeks of use, I was able to fix it, but in hindsight should have just saved the money for the legit 1300mah vision spinner I eventually bought from myvaporstore.com (pretty good price, 5% off with code ECF).

Mine arrived today. Build quality is good. Only gripe is the only markings are 3.2v 4v and 4.8v on the twist and no mark on the body to reference against. I solved that by scraping a small stripe of the black away to give me a reference point.

You also get a free CE5 (or 4S) clearo and USB charger for your $15.75.

For those having problems FT were good with the return I had and have offered a full refund. For US customers they have a returns office in Miami.

I'd listen to Vapoor Eyes. Love the Fasttech stuff. Unbeatable proposition, i.e., both genuine and knock offs, at wholesale pricing with no minimums, worldwide free shipping, PayPal which protects online purchasing, half the price of American Vendors, and for the most part, the exact same products you can buy here in the U.S. If you really need some additional information on ego type batteries, then check this out:

Stick Batteries, known as eGo Style Batteries (entry level, backup, out and about, stealth, primary):

Trusted Vendors shown, but NOT selected based on pricing, you'll still need to shop around. You will need device specific battery chargers (which often come in kits) for these devices. Also, kits often provide two batteries allowing for simultaneous vaping while charging of the backup. Each of the eGo style batteries below have both 510 and eGo thread connections. As such, they are compatible with most toppers, including most Kanger products. Additionally, each of these devices has at least variable voltage, which allows you to adjust and regulate the battery output voltage, providing customizable vapor production, temperature, throat hit, and finding the "sweet spot" for your juices to suit your individual vaping preferences:

1. Innokin iTaste 3.0 vv/vw, usb passthrough, ohms reader, etc. - https://ivape.net/index.php/iTaste-VV-3.0-Variable-Wattage-Device-Pearl-Chrome.html (variable power, LCD display, +/- buttons, Usb passthrough, 3.3 - 5.0 volts, 6.0 - 11.0 watts, 800mAh)
2. SLB KGO VV - http://www.hoosierecig.com/Mega-KGO-VV-1200mAh-3-6v-_p_441.html (LCD display, +/- buttons, Usb passthrough, 3.0 - 6.0 volts, 650 - 1200mAh)
3. Vision Spinner - Vision Spinner VV eGo Battery 1300mAh (3.3 - 4.8 volts, 1300mAh)
4. Joyetech Twist - eGo Twist 1000 Mah Battery in Black (3.2 - 4.8 volts, 650 - 1000mAh)
5. Smoktech Winder - Smok eGo Winder 900mAh Variable Volt Battery (3.2 - 4.8 volts, 900 - 1100mAh)

Best Starter Combo kit out there, imho, provides two batteries, i.e., the twist and/or spinner, and two toppers, i.e., the eVod and/or MT3s, among others: http://www.myvaporstore.com/Vision_Spinner_Joye_Ego_C_Twist_Combo_p/vvs-c.htm.

Recommend one eVod and one MT3s topper with one Spinner and one Twist to start. This way you get four different products with the kit and allowing you to experience four different setups, as you figure out your preferences and what works best for you. BTW, you can spend less and get a fixed voltage battery, but you'll have much less vape flexibility and it won't be long before you'll want to upgrade to variable voltage, more than likely, and the difference initially is only a few dollars per battery anyway.

Enjoy the shopping, welcome aboard and Vape On!
