Please help me choose between Ego-T, Ego-W and Ego-C

[platinum70]

Hi,

After joining this great forum and posting for the first time yesterday asking for recommendations on which E-cig i should buy next after my mini e-cigs were proved to be good but insufficient i have realized that an Ego is not as thick as i thought it is and hence decided to buy an Ego.

Well, i thought that deciding which e-cig to buy will make things much more clearer for me but apparently i am still confused.

I want the e-cig to have a tank and a 650mah battery (to keep it short) as i read tank was by far better than cartridges but when looking around in the shops i have discovered there's not just an Ego-T but also Ego-W and Ego-C.
i can get any of the 3 for less than $40 at VaporHawk.com {with free shipping}

Since i'm a complete newbie in this, i'm lost again
Which of the 3 is the best buy? Ego-T, Ego-W or Ego-C? I can't understand the differences between them.

I'll greatly appreciate your advice in choosing.
recommendations on shops that sell those cheap and deliver worldwide will also be gladly accepted.

Thank you in advance

I haven't tried the diff variants, but will just mention that the batteries are identical. This means that the atomizer parts are interchangeable so switching system wont cost you as much as the starter kit.
Others who are familiar with all or some of the systems will chime in, im sure.

I have an eGo passthrough, you can vape while plugged into a USB, or unplug and vape. It takes anything 510 threaded, so you can get cartos for it and there are tanks you can use. You can get one here for only $16.99, no cartos or juice, but they have good prices on cartos and with ea 5-pack you get a free bottle of juice.

eGo 510 650mAh USB Passthrough Battery

Just a suggestion, there are a lot of other choices, and everyone has their own likes and dislikes, as I'm sure you will hear.

Get any of them and a couple packs of 2-3ohm boge cartomizers. Lower ohms=hotter Higher ohms=cooler

Starting out you want something simple to work with. Many people have problems with the ego tank systems. I'm not saying they don't work, I'm just wondering if a noob wants to fiddle with a device while experiencing nic fits.

Start with cartos.

I use the same batt as Balth. They've never let me down.

I'm a noob, and wanted something that I didn't have to put a lot of thought into. I wanted it to just work. Mods and other stuff can come after I get vaping 101 down.

I chose the Ego-C. I had read that the Ego-T had leaking problems, but that the C had addressed that. And 8 days into vaping on it, not a leak to be found. I'm also still on the same atomizer and can re-use the tanks. I've only used about 3 tanks, because I've got three different flavors loaded up and can just quickly switch them out (vaped far more than three tanks, I just mean that I've actually loaded up and punctured 3 of the 5 tanks that came with the kit).

I have not yet used carto's, but I do plan to at some point, but having to let it sit and settle for 20 minutes is not convenient and "easy" for me. Some carto's you need syringes for (from what I've read), and that just adds another layer of complexity to me as a newbie that I don't want to deal with right now.

I have ordered a couple drip tips and will be ordering a LR atomizer to try drip tipping for tasting flavors.

I will be ordering the LR atomizers that Ovale has for the Ego-C tomorrow. The reviews out of the gate for the LR atties with the Ego-C have been great.

Currently only Ovale carries the Ego-C.

From one newb to another - it doesn't get much easier than the Ego-C.

Tanks aren't expensive to replace, and EASY to clean (just run warm water through them, blow them out with your mouth, add new juice, pop on the assembly with no waiting and drying and dry burns). I do take apart my assembly and blow out my atty each evening - which might be why it's been taking a beating and keeps on working like a charm.

^^^^^^^ i totally agree^^^^ i have bothe the ego-t and the ego-c but i have to admit while i love my ego-t the c is much better it really bring out the flavors of the juioce that the t doesnt for some strange reason.... i havent had any issues on either of them at all but by far i personally would go with the ego-c... just my opinion

Rabernet, you described my perspective very well
I'm not looking into making vaping a new hobby and begin buying more and more e-cigs. I want my e-cig to be reliable, durable, satisfying as a full replacement for the analog ones and work right out of the box.
I know very little about the LR and i hope to buy an e-cig that will be satisfying enough "as is" to help me quit.
I'll settle for as little as this, i have no interest at the moment to chase more TH etc. I just want to quit smoking very badly.

Frankly speaking, i see the all vaping thing as replacing one addiction with another addiction. although it's a less risky addiction, it's still an addiction to me and i hope to quit on vaping just as well with time, after getting rid of the nicotine addiction.

Thanks for recommending the Ego-C. However, i'm quite curious to know why no one has referred to the Ego-W yet. i wonder if it could be better than the Ego-C

Currently only Ovale carries the Ego-C.

Does it mean the ones i saw at vaporhawk.com are fakes?

I'm not familiar with Vaporhawk, but the person selling them from what I can see has only been registered since September of this year - and at LEAST through November - Ovale was the only Joye AUTHORIZED vendor selling them. I don't know if that changed December 1 or not.

The LR means low resistance and heats the juice a little more, allowing you to get more of the full flavor of your juices, rather than experiencing them muted.

From what I can tell, the eGo-C is a slight variant of the standard 510-T design. I started with the standard 510, tried using standard atty's with a drip tip, and loved everything but the constant work of dripping. I switched to the eGo-T a couple weeks ago, and have been very satisfied with it. What I've both heard and found for myself is that the eGo-T Mega/Type-B's only have flooding/leaking issues if you draw hard or leave them unattended for long periods of time. I've adapted my technique to that shortcoming, and haven't had any problems.

I use mine pretty much all day, off-and-on. I'm not a chain vaper but I don't generally go without for more than 45 minutes to an hour at a time. I've only had flooding issues a couple times now, and leaking through only once. Both happened in the first week when I was getting up to speed with it.

Based on the design and my personal experience, I'm not sure that the "C" model tank system would necessarily be any better than the mega tank, but I just know what I've found to work and the "T" is fine with my style. Every system has its pro's and con's, so I'd just say get a tank system of some sort, and see how it goes. Once you can articulate the things you do and don't like about your system, then you'll be better equipped to ask for recommendations. I found pretty quickly that it's what you don't know that complicates things, and once you can describe your needs then people can readily help you decide what would suit you best.

Does the eGo T have removable attys? I was using cartos with my eGo, but found a cone-atty type thing at a local smoke shop with the clear small tanks ....... so is that like an eGo T? Well, I was wondering if the atty goes out, I have to buy a whole new cone? It looks like the eGo C has little attys you just pop out, but save your cone.
Do I have this right?

 

[Jdsgibson]

It may be that ovale is the only U.S. distributor. Others may carry outside of the states. I haven't heard of the ego-w.

 

[platinum70]

i honestly don't know if you got it right, i'm a newbie and at least at this stage i want a complete kit rather than assembling different parts by my self which will require much more knowledge from me about the compatibility between parts. I'm not there yet.

I just want to know which of the models in the thread's subject would be the best...

 

[threew]

I've got the Ego-W. Some reliability issues and it doesn't seem to be 501 compatible. I'm a relative newbie also and wouldn't be totally comfortable recommending the W to another newbie.

Go check MadVapes.com they got everything you need to start and great prices, if they will not ship internationally PM me and I will ship it to ya.

 

[d0n]

I have an eGo-C from ovale.
I am trying to save money though and I am planning to sell the other one that came in the pack.
Let me know if you are interested (I intentionally bought an extra charger).

The eGo-C is amazing.

Honestly - you can't go wrong with the Ego-C. The atomizers are easy to replace (which I've read can be challenging with the T, but I don't have first hand experience) AND, the atomizers for the C are less expensive than the atomizers for the T.

You WILL have to replace atomizers in any of the models you're considering at some point. I don't know anything about the W - but a poster above says it has some reliability issues.

Rabernet - I got a cone atty (guess it's a T) and it wasn't cheap! I was wondering if the atty set-up for the Cs (the little pop out atty) would fit onto any of the eGo batteries .... I have a 650 mah and 900 mah.
I don't think you cn change the atty in the cone one ..... I think it's in there for good.

 

[araczynski]

i think the ego-C's main design point was honestly to find a way to get more $. They appear to be the same parts as in an egoT (more or less), but can be separated. magically during the separation process they of course ended up costing more when combined, in comparison to a regular egoT atomizer.

anyway, i love their batteries, but am prefering to go with cartomizers for now. a big dual coil low resistance cartomizer (2x3ohm as 1.5ohm) blew the egoT B amotizer (which is a big improvement over the A atomizer) out of the water in terms of vapor and taste (to me anyway, i guess its all subjective though), they're much cheaper and seem to last just as long.

but either way, you can't really go wrong with an ego anything, as i believe they're all the same battery threads, so you can use the atomizers (A/B/C/W) interchangeably on any single battery. so buy whichever you feel like, and try out the other atomizers seperately if you're curious or want the best opinion of all: yours

one thing i did love about the tank system (never had any leaks on my egoT) was the ability to swap out the tanks/flavors quickly. which was great when i started and had about 15 different tanks filled with different flavors and was trying to find what i liked. now that i know what i like and its basically 3 flavors that i occasionally mix together, i have no need for the swapping around, i just keep 3 big cartomizers filled with what i like and swap out the cartomizer whenever i feel like it instead.

Yes, the atty cone for the C will fit onto any of the Ego Batteries - I've used it on a pass through.

The atties themselves cost $6 each, which is less than the $10 -$11 per atty on the T. You just need to get this cone:

eGo-C Cone - ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE (e-cigarette) :: ego-C, changeable system, ego-T, elips, liquid, juice, accessories

and some atties - I'd recomment the LR atties.

eGo-C Low Resistance Atomizer Heads - ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE (e-cigarette) :: ego-C, changeable system, ego-T, elips, liquid, juice, accessories

Oh - and some tanks, of course!

eGo Cartridge empty (5ea) - ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE (e-cigarette) :: ego-C, changeable system, ego-T, elips, liquid, juice, accessories
