That's probably true. I've never really tried high voltage but apparently I must like 3.4. I do like the 4.2 volt echo-e with some juices, but not all.
Tell me why I shouldn't get an eGo-c....

Don't knock a cool vape there is more flavor that way . As the heat increases IMO the flavor decreases but you can find a sort of balance between vapour and taste .
I'd ditto the suggestion for the E-Power... that's what I have & I love it... but the only place I see it in stock is here: E-Power 1050-2200mAh I note that there have been some issues with the switch on these; I understand the issues have been resolved but apparently there's still some old stock out there that needs to be moved. Personally I'd be reluctant to buy these units with questionable switches except maybe as closeouts, and/or with an assurance the switch would be replaced with the upgraded design if/when a problem occurred. Otherwise I think it's a nice PV for the price.
The ego c was a disappointment to me. I'm accustomed to ultimate ce2's clearos, and the flavor from the ego c in both low and standard resistance was much weaker than with the ce2s, or low res cartos, or atty. I think it's a matter of what you're accustomed to. Some people haven't had a great vape, so they're satisfied with the ego c. I however am very dissapointed. Great design otherwise though, it looks nice, and you can change the tank, and within a few puffs, the old flavor is gone. That is, if you can even tell the difference between the flavors, as it is near non-existent. I personally can't wait until someone gets the CE4 plus clearos (vision ego stardust) back in stock. I think that's gonna be the winner.
In regards to the Joyetech ego 3.4 volt vs other 3.7 volt batteries; the ego is 3.7 volts, regulated down to 3.4 via pulse width modulation circuitry for a consistent vape until the battery is drained. The other, non-regulated batteries start out at 3.7 volts, or higher, but rapidly decrease in voltage down below 3.4. I have both, but I prefer the ego, especially after the battery is drained down a bit, as it will provide more voltage at that point. Also, they typically have a much better build quality than non- Joyetech batteries.
In my personal experiences with ego-T & ego-C, they works for a while until the notorious leaking & burnt taste problems came haunting. Subpar flavors, mild throat hit. So why bought a system and crossing fingers that it will works? I'm just saying, there are other setup that will work GREAT without tinkering anything, and lasted. Kgo kit & some LR cartos works wonder, for the same price as an Ego-C kit. And the built quality of Kgo is just the same as ego. But this is just my opinion.

As I said before the tips are pretty cheaply made but the draw is better than it was on the ego-T but still a bit low for experenced vaperers . I wouldn't mind using one but I think I would be changing heads every 3rd day 4 if I am lucky . If they cost a few pennies each then it wouldn't bother me but the math right now does not work . 5- 2ohm boge or kanger cartos approx $8 and will last more than a month . 5- ego mega dual coil cartomizers $16 they also will last more than a month . 5- ego-c heads $25 and I would be lucky to get two weeks out of them . Even if I got a month out of them that is still 3x more exprensive than a boge carto and the boge carto is a better vap .
I agree with that. I still have one of my Joye ego batteries from my first kit. I have a lot in rotation, but no batteries have lasted as long as joye batteries.
I have been vaping for about 5 weeks and I started with the ego-c after seeing a few solid YouTube videos on it. And, truthfully if you were to ask me this same question 2 weeks ago I would have fully endorsed it.
The ego c for the first few weeks seemed like a dream to me. Flavor seemed good, consistent vape, no leaking, batteries lasted a ton, first two atomizers lasted the two weeks. Then slowly it started to change. The last few weeks have resulted in almost the exact opposite. Tanks leak, well I guess the better word is seep, because it doesn't gush out and rather is seeping out from the cone-tank line near mouth piece. I have ran into a couple atomizers that won't fire right out of the packaging. Some times I draw and feel like I am sucking a triple thick shake out of a coffee stirrer and sometimes it's the opposite and very airy. Even off fresh atomizers occasionally i get that great taste it started but more often i get a burning taste. Occasionally I have also been getting a quick shot of juice in my mouth with is a very unpleasant thing on many levels.
I could go on for quite a bit but I will save the reading. I am a man of trial and error and have tried different things to try and get the ego back to the way it started and have been unable to do so. I cannot offer a comparison to experience with cartos just yet as I am still waiting on my first batch of cartos to arrive.

Hey, I'm the one who originally posted this thread. Again thanks for all the great opinions and insight!
In case anyone is curious, I ended up ordering a KGO and a few different cartos from hoosierecigsupply.com.... they should be showing up any day now. Will let everyone know how it goes.
Thanks again for a great community... would be completely lost if it wasn't for everyone here at ECF!!

People give these things too much of a bad rap. At the end of the day, they're easier to use than cartos (have to keep moist, carrying a tiny dropper bottle around makes me seem like a druggie).
What people often forget, is that these are really picky with juice. If you're using some thick, opaque, dark botique US juice, which many here swear by, it is going to destroy your atomizer. If you use runny, PG juice, like DeKang, or even US brands that don't sacrifice wear on equipment for flavor, they last, period. I keep cartos for tasting those fancier juices, that usually disappoint me, and I use an eGo-C for regular old Chinese 555.
Vape newbs are more likely to pick up an eGo-T/C than they are a carto, or even worse, a carto-tank (your PVs look like powertools). The dry hit from a Boge that hasn't soaked yet is worse than any burnt wick I've ever tasted on an eGo-T/C.
To be specific on juice, the Joyetech juice that came with the Ovale eGo-C kits, lasts in those atomizers. I used my first one for over a month. And it doesn't exactly taste bad either, better than 50% of the flavors I've tried that would've also destroyed one of those atty's. If you're vaping a clear, minty liquid, it'll probably last even longer.
