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

Prudent thought process from both of you. Experience and perception can certainly bias, distort and form your reality. After all my time with ALL things eGo I got the GoGo and was/am thrilled. Now I see the eGo-T Rev 2 (or LR) seems to be getting pretty solid reviews. I still have all of my eGo gear and it would be easy to go try a R2 LR tank, but I'm just not interested anymore...for now. Plus I sort of feel like I'd always be waiting for the other shoe to drop. lol I will be forever grateful to the various eGo incarnations but for me the ease, vape quality and simple logistics of the GoGo trump the whole thing. But of course the equation that calculates ease of use vs vape quality vs portability vs vs capacity is different for everyone.
As for compatibility...yes the battery without the carto is just a big ol' battery. But it's the performance of the GoGo carto on that battery that seals the deal. There's nothing else I'd want to put on there, other than a drip or small carto for new juice sampling. But I personally don't sample much anymore anyway, so no big deal. And the cartos clean up quite nicely anyway.
Having said all that, I too am waiting to see how all of us GoGo fans feel in a few months time. Will the new PV smell wear off? Only time will tell.
I'm pretty sure I saw you in that go-go thread and I have a question for you or any other go-go fan. The way I look at it, the thing go-go fans love about the go-go is also it's biggest weakness especially for the newbie. If you vape like people smoke, it looks great. By that I mean you want to vape one juice or maybe a couple juices and nothing else. However, if you're new, you haven't settled on a juice. You probably really haven't found your right nic level. With the go-go, you put a huge amount of juce in and go but, what happens if the juice doesn't work for you? Is there any way to get it out? If you can get it out, can you salvage it? I certainly have diluted stronger juices because the nic level was wrong for me. That's a lot of juice to waste with that carto, if you can't.
The fact is that if you have a go-go, you probably have other vaping equipment to try new juices etc. but, the newbies don't. So, while the go-go may be the vapor's dream, I don't see it being the new vapor's dream.
Good question. I am a newbie and like every other newbie I bought an e-cig auto/2 piece as my first purchase. Luckily, I can refill the e-cig carts but for how long I don't know(hole in the battery) I'm thinking of getting a 30.00 510 or 808-1D just for juice testing. A gogo kit cost 60.00. One of the smaller kits cost 30.00. That's 90.00 bucks for the whole kit and kaboodle. Not a bad investment for a newbie as that's less than 2 cartons of smokes. For newbies I think a gogo is perfect. All the finagaling with batts, carts,atomizers and juices can turn a newbie off to vaping. With the gogo, just fill and go all day. For me, after vaping the cheap e-cig for a week, the taste of juice from the gogo was a real thrill and I knew I could kick the analogs. I must have gotten lucky; the first two juices I got when I ordered my gogo tasted great and I just purchased two 30ml refills. I must confess that I did buy about 50 5ml/3ml bottles of other juices to try out. Us newbies have to try out everything in this new discovery we found. I know that I'll find my companion juice that just suits me sooner or later. I tried Wyatt Earp and thought it was the one but it turned out to be a 1 night stand for me. Juices are like dating.

From that perspective Mickey, I think you are absolutely correct. That would be my greatest (MAYBE ONLY) desire for an adapter for the GoGo...the ability to use a drip tip and/or 808 carto to sample a small amount of juice. After that FILL 'EM UP lol
I have never tried to take the filler out of a Go Carto, but even if one could do this I just don't see wringing out the filler to recover juice as a graceful way of going about it. Good point.

Say that when you have 3 ml of juice in there and every time you pick it up, your headache, nausea, and dizziness comes back because the juice that worked for you yesterday is kicking your .... with nicotine today. That happened to me. I started at 24mg and now I do 12. I was on 18 for several days just fine then it happened again. As it stands, I really don't see the go-go as being right for newbies.
WTF, I'm adding one to the quiver. I'm still pretty happy with my Ego-T, though. And what would I do with the 70 or so 510 cartos I ordered, when I was having a nic fit and was out of juice... LOL
But I suspect someone comes up with 510 adapters, for both directions, one of these days. I love the flexibility of using the big batt with a tank, or just using the 650/carto, on the go. The ego with a 650/cone/carto fits in my pocket well, just a bit larger than that bic lighter, that I used to carry around. Heck, dragging around a spare 510 with a carto, has already let me turn other people on to vaping. And I've probably vaped most from my 510 pass through, for the last few days. Nice to experiment with a couple drops of a dozen or so flavors. So, the flexibility of the 510 platform is nice. Still, I can see where a never-ending carto and batt would come in handy. So, I'll just add one to the collection.
Can someone please tell me when my new hobby will actually be cheaper than real smoking? LOL
Here's a post about an adapter for 808d/901 users, and some potential for those of us who like the 510/Ego side...

I have to say that I can't find one bad thing to say about it. Filled it up yesterday and used it for maybe 4 hours last night. Topped it off this afternoon...just to be sure I don't dry it out and still tastes a great as it did the first puff out of the box. It was an excruciating 8 hrs waiting on the batt's to charge...but WOW oh WOW, it was love at first puff. As Blondeambition3 puts it so well "Leg-Go a my Go-Go"!
Got some question..
Never used a cartomizer period. How does the Go-Go compare to an Ego with whatever cartomizer.
Part of me is saying to get the go-go because my ego-t tank is just so variable. (right now going through the little flavor, little vapor phase. Just put new atty on this morn and it's already acting up.
My experience with e-cig has only been 2 months. I started with a 401 (didn't last long enuff), bought an ego (hate the cotton taste I get off them), Got the tank (very high maintainence and I have yet to make a cleaned atty work like a new one). Now I'm looking for something else. The Go-Go has me thinking, but I'm also considering a Variable Voltage or maybe a box-mod.
and how does the Go-Go compare to a REO not comparing price.
On the Go-Go say I have 2 flavors 1 flavor I vape alot other only certain times (say morning). If I fill the less used one will letting it sit for a day or two hurt the carto?

Call Nhaler and get some juice added to your order before it ships. The carts come empty. Also, from the recommendation of Nhaler and several Veterans, let your batt's charge the full 8 hours before you use them. You will get maximum life from them. Lot's of folks tear open the box and start puffing away. Ask them for a juice that is close to the flavor you are getting from analogs, they can help. Good luck and enjoy!
if you are looking for something that gives similar flavor at least initially, I have found that using a 5v 808 pass-through is very similar to the go-go. I want to say that I paid about 11 bucks for mine and it put me off of 808 bats since it produced so much more vapor.
as an aside, for anyone that is PG intolerant, I have had really good luck so far using American e-liquids 100% VG fluids with the go-go

I find this pretty amazing. I had some AEL 100% VG about 6 months ago and it was THICK. Glad it works though. Thanks for the report
I have read the ego-t vs gogo thread ( http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/163146-ego-t-vs-go-go-60.html ) and based on that and my poor ego T experiences, I have placed an order for a gogo. Really excited about it!
I really don't believe you'll be disappointed
If you ordered from NHaler.com however, you'll need to get some juices with that as NHalers Go-go starter kits come with empty Cartos. I recommend the pre-filled Go-carts at Cig-Easy here GO-CARTS... or one of their eLiquids.

I did....both....
