Still confused what to upgrade to.

[tdinello]

I am still confused on what to upgrade to. I was asking for suggestions on what to purchase as an upgrade from my White Cloud Cirrus 3X. Here are the suggestions. Please make further comments and suggestions. Thank you in advance for your help. 1. Riva 510 battery with Kanger EVOD eGo bottom coil with 1.80 head. 2. Vision Spinner with Protank. 3. Kgo. 4. E go-C with EVOD. 5. VAMO with Protank. 5. Provari. I also need to know where to purchase quality equipment.

A few of those have the Kanger Evod - good choice. I prefer the Kanger T3 - just a bit longer but more ejuice capacity - (evod=1.6ml T3=3ml). And there's a fairly new Kanger starting kit with two batteries and some evods. The 1.8ohm IS a good starting point - you can buy replaceable coils that are from 1.5ohms to 2.5ohms. Suggest starting with the 1.8 for most flavors and getting some 2.2 ohm coils for lighter flavors. Here's a vendor that sells the kit with the 1.8's: (other vendors have them with the 2.5's which I think are a bit cool for most flavors but ymmv.... depending on taste/flavor.

Kanger Evod MT BCC Starter kit

Another option would be to get a couple of Joye eGo-c batts, an eGo charger and some Kanger T3's again with the 1.8ohm coil and picking up some 2.2 replacement coils:

Staying with the same vendor - but many others carry them:

Joye eGo-C 2 650mah Ecigarette Batteries

Joye eGo-C 2 650mah Ecigarette Batteries
[make sure you get the eGo 'fast charger' NOT the 510 charger..]

T3's:
Kanger T3 bottom Coil eGo Clearomizer/Cartomizers
Get a couple..

coils:

2.2 in dropdown (of course you could try the others ;- )

The Twist, Vamo and Provari would be a leap upgrade - they are variable voltages type batts. I have a few Twist and they are nice and much bigger and longer than the ones above.... but for most of my flavors I know which coils I need for the eGo-c batts to get the best flavor

Spinners are definitely a big leap. Hell, I say go with an eGo-C battery with a ProTank Twist if you wanna have some fun. The protank is pretty bomb.

I have a WC 3 kit, and I just ordered a 1300 spinner and 4 tanks. 1 plastic vivi mini, 1 metal vivi mini, 1 vision ego clearo, and 1 kanger t3.
I fully expect to try a kanger pro, and get some attys and driptips.
Since i'll want something a bit smaller for work I expect i'll give the above a whirl to help me figure out what I like and buy a few smaller batts for work use.
For some reason (of course I know it'll probably change!) I forsee 3 small 350-650 egos for work with small clearos, and something like a vamo or provari for home use. But that'll be a long way out yet


....ooohhh! looks like it'll be delivered today too! *squee* didn't expect that so soon!

Thanks for the advice. Do you still plan on using the WC? I figured I would use it out and about. What flavor of WC do you use? I use the Apache Extra. I would like to try the Bora Bora and Espresso. Have you tried them?

For the time being probably. Its a lot more portable than a 1300 spinner!
I primarily am using menthol (being a menthol smoker) but as of late its been tasting a little funky. Vapers tongue i suspect!
I have been carrying a vanilla to use with my morning coffee because the menthol tastes funny with it.
I liked kick - reminded me of good microbrew. I got a strawberry fling and was surprised how much i liked it. I never thought id like weird or fruity flavors! Apple was too light imho, moscow mule i just got and im on fence about, i ordered espresso (xstrong) which according to reviews x flavor is bitter. I loooove coffee and tossed it. Tasted like coffee sitting on a burner for 3 days. Maybe reg flavor is better. Finally got a cinn fling and its crazy strong! Still waiting for cloves i ordered.
Once i figure out some ejuice, delivery method, and batts ill probably retire or gift Wc. I have to say ive been pleased with performance of it, but i suspect ill change my tune soon enough!
I plan on keeping a selection of flings for the curious and as emergency backup however. Stick one in my desk, laptop bag, etc

Looking at the KGO starter kit from Virgin Vapors. Any thoughts?

get a 650 twist and an evod. that is small and will do all day. get 2 batteries and that way you are never dead. I have a couple of these and they are small. They vape well. cheap!

 

[mainevaper]

ego c with a vision mini vivi nova, at 1.8ohms. to make that an even better investment and vape, I'd suggest ordering 30ft of 2mm silica, and 30 ft of 32g kanthal a-1, and learn how to re-wick/coil your own.

As stated above... def get 2 batts!!

How is the evod compared to the T3. I like that it has a 1.8 ohm coil, should be nice at 3.3 ego voltage right?

I prefer the T3 over the evod. The evod is just a tad shorter in length but I prefer the larger capacity for ejuice in the T3. The evod and MT3's small window makes it harder to fill. And the evods I have, have a 'gurgling' problem the T3's don't have. MT3's vape well but I don't care for the window and the extra weight of the cosmetic metal skin.

The 1.8ohm coils are a good match for the regulated eGo, although a 2.2ohm coil is better with lighter flavors - fruit, berry, vanilla, coconut... If the 1.8Ω isn't quite hot enough - the eGo-c 'upgrade' batt in the unregulated mode (orange led) works well. For more heat than that, you need to go to the Twist.

One note - many of the T3's, evods, MT3 and protank ship from some vendors with the 2.6Ω coil in it and it is too cool a vape for even my lightest flavors on the eGo in regulated mode. Other vendors ship with the 1.8Ω coil. If one is getting too light of a vape with the T3 - most likely you have a 2.6Ω coil. And some of those meter out at 2.7-2.8Ω - although some of the 1.8Ω coils meter at 1.9-2.0Ω

BTW, the OP went Go-Go/KGO

Awesome info. Thanks.

KGO's excellent. Vision Spinner is even better - and no less 'portable' at 650. I prefer both to the Ego C, myself. LOVE the spinner - it's simpler to adjust, prettier and more reliable than the KGO twist.
