The Echo Thread

[melloyello]

another thing to remember is that most of these batteries are automatic....dripping not suggested. if you do get a manual echo-e, yes it has 510 threads and you can of course put a 510 atty on it and drip away. and thank you for the cleaning methods posted.

My rubber drip tip (made from the supplied whistle tip).
This sucker lets crazy amounts of vapor through.
Cigar smokers will love the ECHO.

Do you notice flavor reduction in your Boge 2.0s then the Echo carto? I just got my Boges in and am using them on my Reo mini. Only have tried one but seems like the flavor is a lot less then a fresh Echo. I got these because everyone loves them.

Oh that depends on the juice. And the battery, meaning regulated or true 3.7V. Overall I like the flavor from a Boge slightly better.

Bill is awesome for sure! I just ordered a bunch of cartos for the sexy 650 manual ECHOs he sold me. With Bill as my supplier I might finally get even, or better yet ahead, over the cost of regular cigs.

You're right OMG! That 650 manual I just got today from Bill is sexy!! I am loving it! I might hang up my 1300 for awhile!

Those kits at $45.00 are NOT going to last long and those cartos for $12.50 for 5 is a great deal too!

I may have to order more don't think they're going to last long!!

Thanks Bill...got my pretty chrome cartos today..thanks for the straws and the tip. I have been wanting to try this one. Do not like the aluminum ones I bought. Great customer service!

 

[JohnReagan]

Thanks to everyone that chimed in. That, combined with a little extra research that I've done, is all that I needed. Keep this awesome thread going.

Hi all, just got my 1300 Echo kit from MTN Vapor yesterday, 1st experience with cartos, started vaping 6 months ago with Ego carts and tanks. I have a few initial impressions and questions: 1st batt I charged, blue LED was lit while charging, 2nd battery, no blue LED while charging, do I have a bad batt? Mine seems to have the 5 sec cutoff, not getting big vapor or TH so far compared to my type B ego tank, the taste is there though, no burning foul taste and consistent taste. Don't like that I have to take two 5 sec draws to get a satisfying TH, any suggestions on improvement or will I eventually get used to it? I'm using purecig 50/50 mix from FSUSA.

So I got a package in the mail the other day. I have terrific news to report! It turns out there are black PLASTIC WHISTLE TIPS available that fit the echo perfectly! What's better than that? You can get 5 of them for $4! PLUS they come with 5 stylish paperweights FREE. find them HERE

Yeah, those are the ones I bought for my gogo cartos many months ago. They didn't work on the gogo but I saved them and tried them on the echo-e cartos and they work much better than the stock soft tips that are factory. I ordered some echo-e cartos from Bill, just to see what type of delrin drip tip he includes with the order.

7 days analog free because of the Echo! And that's saying something considering the juices I've been vaping are about a year old....I love the Echo!!!!

I had the same issue on one of my batts when new but it went away after the 1st cycle. The led's probably not lighting up cauz the battery is already charged. Run it flat and see if the issue persists. I bet it will light up when you charge it after a full discharge.

Man, I don't know how you can take such long hits. I rarely hit the 5 sec cutoff and have a satisfying vape. I have tried the eGo tank (A & B in both SR & LR) but found them to be too much maintenance. Once I had the cutoff problem and found it to be that the tiny airholes in the battery thread where clogged up. After cleaning with a needle it was back to normal. Is the draw somewhat hard at the moment? 50/50 mix might be a bit thick???

Edit: Increasing the pg should also increase the TH

Hey guys, I have a pretty much new echo over in the classifieds, about half price. Just didn't do it for me.

I had my first Echo 650 battery fatality today, though it was my fault. I was filling the carto's and had the batts all lined up on my desk, and managed to knock one over. Rolled off the desk, hit pretty hard on the floor. The led lit up, cycled to the five second cutoff. I put a cart on a tried a draw, the led never lit back up. I think when it dropped it must have damaged the auto circuitry inside. The led lights up when I put it on the charger, so I'm pretty sure it's the switch. I've dropped the 1300's a couple times as well though ironically I was on a snow capped peak both times. The snow cushioned the blow those times, they still operate fine.

I guess I have a good excuse to get another kit, lol.

 

[EtherMagic]

Well, good news for you guys, bad news for me!


As most who read my posts know I own 2 black 650 Echo kits that I absolutly LOVE!!! With that said...


After just 1 day with my Chrome 1300 Batt Echo, I feel it is a tad to long for my taste (a concern I also voiced to Tony from Cropdusters901 before ordering), so I am deciding to sell at my expense. I will be ordering the Chrome 650 Batt once Tony gets them in, as this chrome shines and glistens like NO other, WAY to beautiful!


Here's the deal...


I received this kit just yesterday, I charged one of the Batts for maybe 45min out the box before it fully charged, filled one of my Chrome Carto's, and took maybe a total of 20 hits off it before feeling it was a tad too long for my taste.

I wiped off any prints on the Batt, put it back in the baggy I originally took it out of, and back in the case it went. This is the only use this kit has seen.


In total, this is what I have to sell, I am ripping myself off here, but hey, I owe it to whoever purchases this off me (And if I don't sell this, I don't get my 650 Chrome! )...


BRAND NEW, MINT CONDITION, NOT A SCRATCH or MARK ON THE BOX OR THE CHROME PARTS!!!


-2 1300 Echo Batts
-Echo Charger
-10 Chrome Echo Carto's (Yes, I stock up when I buy my kits! lol I actually bought 12, but I'm keeping the other 2 for when I get my 650 Chrome kit )

-Echo Kit Box with simulated Gold Leaf

-Also including a FREE 801/Echo Drip tip (again at my expense).


$73 Free Shipping with USPS Tracking #. Ships within an Hour of Payment Guaranteed, with notice of Tracking number.


I payed $104 for this kit and the Carto's with Shipping, I am taking a hit of around $25 here.


PayPal ONLY PLEASE.


First come gets it.


P.S. Sorry for posting this here, but this is the Echo thread, I'll be posting this in the sales section aswell.


Thanks guys!



Paul

That's wierd... when i first got my echo, it bounced off concrete and pavement at least 6-8 times due to the loose rubber tip it comes with, and those batteries never failed me. Well... until recently... but that was a juice related incident that's too recent and painful to talk about... but it behaved as you are describing. I tore it apart and someday if anyone is interested I'll post some pictures of the mysterious inner workings of the echo battery

I would urge you to reconsider. The 650 is not a whole lot shorter, and there's something about a big e-cig (like a big cigar) hanging out the side of your mouth that screams "boss". Just sayin'

 

[Janie47]

Wowzers....... the e-cig market has changed a LOT since I backslid and went back to analogs! (Living with two smokers, the analogs were just too convenient and admittedly, I became too busy in my personal life - errr, and lazy, to continue fooling with e-cig maintenance). My 4th grandchild made her debut this week and I am determined to put these analogs away for good, so I quickly researched and placed an order with Bill for 2 1300 Echo kits and 2 650 kits. (Hoping to convert both my analog addicted Dad - who lives with us, and my hubby as well with the Echo). My question are: ( and admittedly I'm too busy keeping the new baby girl's older three brothers to research)and was hoping I could get some quick answers here. 1.) What is a "tank?" That term was not out when I last used e-cigs (the Leo back in December). 2.) I tried cartos with both our 510's (my preference) and 901's (hubby's preference) when last using e-cigs and was not at all impressed. Have they improved that much with the Echo? 3.) I don't recall much being mentioned re: steeping when I last used e-cigs. I have soooo much juice inventory, tho most is over a year old, and with the Echo cartos holding so much juice, I don't want to waste 3 ml a pop, soooo..... do u all recommend that I use old juice from the get go, or wait for the new juices I ordered to "steep" for a week?

Thanks much in advance to any and all who have the time and/or patience to respond! Happy holiday weekend! (Man, I wish I had not waited untill a holiday weekend to place my order....... an extra day of delay in shipping, but oh well).

 

[DarthVper]

Well, eliquid supposedly has a shelf life of 2 years per the makers. So that means probably more like 3. It seems typically a freshly ordered juice requires at least a week, maybe two, of sitting around before it blossoms. BWB for one is adamant about making sure this is clear.
I can speak for my own experience and the echo is really a fine product. If you are concerned about using the large cartos for testing new liquids, as I was, then i would recommend you also order some 808 cartos which are little 1ml cartos, very are cheap and disposable. They look strange on the echo battery but who cares.

 

[Janie47]

I'm a very very VERY happy girl tonight! I ordered my new Echo (both the 650 and 1300) from Bill @ D & B only two days ago, didn't check the mail until tonight because I was sure my stuff wouldn't arrive til after the holiday. SURPRISE SURPRISE!!! It was all there! I quickly filled a carto with some old EcoPure English Toffee juice (while I wait for my new juice from Madvapes to steep) and am happily puffing away on a gorgeous 1300! LOVE LOVE LOVE it so far! Thanks for all the tips, and a very special thanks to Bill!!! ♥

 

[Janie47]

Interestingly, I have both a 650 and a 1300 charging. Both of the charger lights are green, and the tip of the 1300 is red, but the tip of the 650 isn't lit at all. Also, FWIW, my first carto held 3.1 ml of juice.

 

[OMG!]

Bill is the best vendor I've had the pleasure of dealing with since I started using e-cigs in January.
