There are much better alternatives to both the spinner and twist. If you want something about the same size but a much better overall APV, I would look at the variable watt iTaste V3. It's VW which is much closer to "set & forget" than VV. It's smaller than the twist/spinner. It allows you to check the battery charge and the resistence of your atty/carto, etc. It has a 3.5 amp switch unlike the weak 2.5 amp switch of the twist/spinnser that will limit what you can use on it. It's won't roll off a flat surface. It's on sale:

Innokin iTaste VV ( V3.0) Variable Voltage and Variable Wattage Express Kit

Good Luck

I have Twists, but I think the Spinner is a better choice due to the legibility of the setting and that it comes in more mAh options and colors. I highly recommend you get an authentic Vision Spinner, since more problems seem to be reported with the generics.

The price is dependent on the mAh and if you want a specific color you may have to buy from a higher priced vendor.

Just Google Vision Spinner and start comparing prices. :)

Vaportek has (or maybe had, they were out of some colors already) Smok Winders for $16.00 and change - if you go to ........'s site there is also a coupon code. Itaste V3's are a bit less at Ivape than most other sites - read the fine print description for details. Sorry about no links, I am hopeless on that type of stuff. Now shopping for a deal, that I'm better at. :)

Second the itaste. Just received 2 of them and for us beginners its a no brainer. Also comes with instruction Manuel which is rare for a spinner or twist.

Why would they need instructions?

screw on delivery system
turn on device (5 clicks - bookmark this if necessary)
twist or spin until you like the flavor

Well I don't know how well you answered the op's question, but I am glad you posted this. Good find!

Not trying to add to the drama or anything... Just looks like a cool battery! I've never seen vw option on an ego size battery before...

All I have used since I started vaping is spinners. I am always on the hunt for a good price on them and I have yet to see one under $25 for a 1300 mah. I wish someone would convince fasttech to stock these, as they are such a popular model.

As Ocelot point out, DiscountVapers probably has the best prices in the U.S. and Eric (the store owner) provides excellent customer service. The eGo Twist batteries he carries currently are not JoyeTech, but rather Hello (a clone), but I have several of them and they work great. I just got a 900mAh SmokTech Winder, and it's very easy to read compared to the eGo Twist dial. You can see them all on this page:

I have read a lot about the spinner vs the twist, and I think I am going to get a spinner. My eyesite isn't too good upclose so the spinner sounds like a better fit. Does anone know where the least expensive place is to get one?:?:

I have both the 1000mAh E-Go C Twist & the 1300mAh Vision Spinner. I prefer the 'feel' of the Twist, but the performance of the Spinner is much better imo. It's all about personal preference I suppose. I can tell you, however, that I am soooo ready to upgrade to an APV. I just can't make up my mind on what to get. So many choices out there. I'm constantly reading reviews and posts on ECF to make an informed decision. Trying to be patient until I find 'the one'! :confused:

Great suggestion! I just found one for 39.99 Innokin iTaste VV V3 Passthrough Battery. Anyone know if the Innokin iTaste V3 does well with larger (3ml +) tanks like the Vivi Nova, iSmoka BCC or the ProTank? Have any pics of what those would look like on the V3?

I love my Twists, but after almost a year of use I'm adjusting by feel. Glasses and bright light are no help anymore. It's not a problem, Oliver and I are deeply bonded, but wear is something to keep in mind.

I've posted this before and people flipped out a bit. Before anyone asks: It's an authentic Joyetech; It may not have happened to you, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen to me; and I do not have sandpaper paws.
