So is the GO-GO really the one to get?

+1 for the Go Go. I started with an eGo and quickly grew tired of carts, cartos, etc. Upgraded to some of the higher end mods, bottom feeders, higher voltage, etc. The flavor disappeared or started to taste burnt. Read the reviews on the Go Go and order one. Been using it for a couple of weeks now and absolutely love it. 100 to 120 drops in each carto, huge plumes of vapor, tons of taste, excellent TH (so much that I had to lower my mg), battery lasts me two days easily. I could on but you get the idea. I can live with the equipment being limited and replacement cartos are fairly cheap so I'm happy. I would recommend it to anyone.

I have the E-GO and the E-GO T, so I know they are.


But...........I didn't know anything about the GOGO, until I read this thread.

Huge thanks to the OP.


:confused:Is the GOGO the same as the KGO?


TIA

Not sure what the KGO is. But I do know that the GoGo is purely it's own thing. It's currently interchangeable with nothing else...until someone puts out some sort of adapter.

I've been looking at the Go-Go since I am always interested in the newest toy. Looks like a pumped up Ego, Cartos are expensive at $3.00 per, however they do hold a lot of juice.

les017 I was wondering how the tactile quality of such a large Carto is, it must seem so much bigger when it comes to the lip factor, does the fact that there is no drip tip kinda of bum you out?

Outside of that it is roughly the same length as an Ego so the pocketability factor seem like it would be same. The less fussing around the better, filling, recharging, all in all from what I've seen it looks it would be a pretty good unit.

Snow, yes at first the large tip was a bit odd. Not off-putting for me since I am/was a cigar smoker as well. But I got used to it. Instead of actually putting it between my lips I more put it up to my lips...somewhere in between inserting a cigarette and playing a trumpet. At first I wished for a drip tip type adapter but it no longer matters. Even my wife got used to it, so that's saying something...she's fussy like that.

Button works virtually same as eGo button. As for draw it felt airy at first but even that tightens up upon 2nd first carto refill. It's more airy than eGo tank but I have totally gotten used to it and I notice that when I draw on GoGo I personally find it preferable now...the draw is very casual. For some reason I can not replicate the extreme airyness that I felt when I first used it. Again, it's all very subjective...

Unless they have changed their formulation from back when I tried them, it's ginger flavoring.

Ah ha....Thanks DC2
The first day I got the bottle it even came with a note that the flavor would change in 24-48 hours and not to refrigerate it.
I tried it right away and yuk. I left the bottle cracked open overnight.Next day no better...next was better.
It took awhile but it seemed better a week later...still the unusal bit of ginger or whatever I didn't like to much....others rave it.
I think it is just OK for me......I want to try the torqe 56 which might suit me better.
I'd like to add I was a menthol smoker and only add a few drops to other juices on occasion.
For some reason I'm not caring for menthol now....weird. Menthol gives good throat hit tho.

It really depends what people look for. Some have issues with certain styles or need it to resembler an analog and some do not.
Yes I guess that be my point.
I can only get my sister to use a 510 w/cartomiser.She does not want to mess with carts and says my PV's are to big for her.
I figure if I can help her lessen or get off analogs with it....that is what it is all about.

I have read the threads and that is why I don,t understand why anyone would buy a proprietary Go-Go with Battery treads that you can,t use with anything else except GO-GO. So if you do not like the GO-G0 you are stuck with it, because nothing else will fit it. I think 510 treads are the standard now, so everything I now own would not work anymore, if I bought a GO-GO.

I'm new at this and am waiting for my Go-go. After reading an enormous amount here it was my first choice for a pv. Here's why the proprietary format doesn't bother me. a) The main reason to have inter-connectivity is to upgrade a system that's not really working well for you. If the Go-go works as well as I expect, I'm pretty much done, that will be just about all I need for my main pv. b) I don't mind paying more for cartos especially as they hold so much and last so long. While I'm limited to two suppliers now, they're both well-known & savvy, so I think the only risk is the system becomes obsolete and can't buy batteries or cartos in the future. c) As long as it does off consumer-wise and it certainly looks to be doing that, there will be adapters available in the future. d) Sometimes you just can't get "better" without being different.

The one thing I couldn't do with my soon-to-come Go-go was set up for dripping or use a small attie/cart system to test the many flavors I've already ordered, so I also ordered a 501 based box mod which has been getting good reviews, uses enough voltage to support LR and was inexpensive. The fact that I had to get atties and carts that won't fit the Go-go doesn't bother me. Ultimately I'll use up my supplies for both systems and have to buy more anyway, the only thing I might be losing is bulk prices, but I'll have what I think suits me.

Gary

Again, I don't have any experience but these are my thought processes and why I bought it.

I read a review and bought the eGo-T shortly after I got on here. It was finicky and really didn't provide a lot of taste for me. So, I tried regular atomizers and carts. Better flavor less fuss. Then I saw the go-go thread. The thing is that in that thread some of the same people that were previously raving about the eGo-T were dissing it and saying the go-go was the holy grail. It seems a little flavor of the month to me.

Here's my best evaluation from reading and not trying. As one person said, "It's just a big ol' cartomizer on a big ol' battery." That said, provided the cart holds a lot and doesn't dry out around the atty, it means less trouble. If the go-go managed to do that, it is an innovation of sorts because I'm not seeing that anywhere else. I'll wait and see how it catches on before I take the jump.

Whatever works for you though.

intrigued by the go-go...but having just recently started vaping and having bought a 510 and a ego-T, I'll have to wait a bit longer and see what comes of these. I've not really had any problems with the pv's I have, the 510 is fine but filling carts all the time can get a lil old..and if you have a few flavors you tend to get them mixed up hehe. The tank has been ok, had one day that both my atties, one normal and one LR, started tasting burned. Messed up my LR's wick, my fault, and the normal one seems to be working fine now. Will be watching the next month to see if the go-go ends up getting some finicky reviews like the tank system went through.

Never tried any e-cig before, seems the long-term users like the go-go better.
Fairly heavy smoker here (1 to 1.5 packs per day of Marlboro lights), sometimes 2 on weekends.

So I haven't ordered anything yet, price isn't really a factor (spend $250+ month on cigs anyways).

Suggestions where to order from, should I definitely get the GO-GO, maybe something more expensive is better that most people just don't order because of cost?

Probably dont want to spend more than $120 for my first trial run, but that sounds fine.

The GO-GO is the one to get after you have found the right juice. If you are new to vaping you need to get a cheap mod that you can try all the different flavors with and then when you find the right juice, use it with the GO-GO. I would try something like this http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...harger-30-free-shipping-plus-20-ml-juice.html and when you find the right juice then get the GO-GO. Also Brad will throw in a LR Atty for like $4 dollars more and you are set. Good Luck

I don't think so.

The go-go looks pretty interesting except I have so much invested in the ego and they aren't interchangeable. I had such high hopes for the ego-T but I'm having atty issues and I'm ready to give up.

Holy smokes!! $900.00 saved in 2 1/2 months?? i thought i was bad, 2 packs a day and that would come to about $300.00 a month
