The eGo has landed.

[nerdygirl]

My eGo arrived today from Cignot (Dude. I ordered it Saturday, it arrived today. They must use ACME shipping like in the old Wile E. Coyote cartoons). I'm at work so haven't had time for too much play yet, but I'm charging up one battery and hastily assembled the other kit to try it out on my "vape break." Mostly I just got primer fluid, which I was in too much of a rush to blow out of the atty.

I did notice, though, that I need to take a lot harder draw on the eGo than I do the 510. Anyone else have this experience? It is more the "sucking a milkshake through a straw" sensation. I imagine it needs to be "broken in" a bit, and that I'll need to become accustomed to a new device. But I wondered if anyone else found the eGo a little harder on the pull than the 510.

Grats! I ordered eGo this morning myself. I can't wait for it to arrive, but it'll be from CA > PA :/

Yes. Depending on the atomizer, it will be. This is because of the cone. Take the cone off, and it will loosen the draw.

+1 on this. I have found the cone definately hinders the draw. If you like the look of the cone you can screw it on one or two threads to help on the draw. Enjoy your eGo

Posting here because i love the title of this thread.

Adding content so this isnt deleted LOL:
Yeah, it is because of the cone. Personally, i like the increased resistance to my draw. Its akin to a well packed down analog. It also muffles the sound when you toke. I also find that i do not like touching the warm atomizer, the cone protects me from that. Also, i find the cart tends to leak a bit if i over fill it. The cone keeps that leakage from touching my skin.

I LOVE MY CONE!

On the down side, its yet another thing to keep clean. If your cart leaked, itll get on the inside of the cone. So even if you clean off the outside of the atomizer, when you put the cone back on, youll get fluid all over it again. Well, unless you clean the inside of the cone before putting it back on.

Excellent, good to know! Thanks all.

I've been using a pre-filled cartridge and a drip tip. The drip tip loosens the draw. I also have a 510 with a pre-filled cart and I find both are the same. The draw compared to my old 901 is like night and day. I find it more than acceptable. Hope you enjoy you new toys. I got mine last week and I can say I'm enjoying both of them. I seem to get slightly better vapor production with the 510 though both produce tons of vapor.

Switch to Fluval filler in your carts and you won't get the leakage. I have been using the eGo's etc. for over a month and have not had one leak such as you described.

I can't wait for mine to come from Liberty Flights! I can't argue with 50% off, but waiting a week for it sure is lame!

 

[WomanOfHeart]

Make sure to blow out your new atty before you use it the first time, otherwise you might get a nasty tasting vape!

 

[lrd3]

I got a Tornado [rebranded eGo from UK supplier] back in may, it is AWESOME. have been using a 401/intellicig the last few weeks, but curiously compared it to my existing ego/tornado, and there's a massive difference...

Noob question... "blow out your new atty"

 

[WomanOfHeart]

KissMint, new atty's are shipping with a tiny amount of oil in them. You just hold a tissue or paper towel on the end that attaches to the battery and blow on the other end to get that oil out. If you're really picky like me, you'll actually rinse them out with hot water and let them dry before you use them.

This is one thing I love about the cone. It keeps the leaks off my fingers.

I actually steam clean my new attys before I use them. I use the same method for cleaning them every 2 days or so.
The steam shark kicks .... We have owned the thing for 3 years and I finally found a reason to use it.

 

[opsguy]

Big Hitter that's really funny you mentioning the steam shark. My wife suggested that two nights ago and I told her she was crazy. I guess I will have to give it a try. And then tell her that was right. Ugh!

Kissmint, I ordered my Ego from route66 on a saturday and got it on tuesday. And that monday was a holiday! And I'll bet you're going to love that eGo.

 

[Barbi355]

I ordered mine from HG last wednesday, and it rocked up today. I live in rural Queensland Australia, so that is AWESOME shipping, considering there was a weekend in there. The Ego is a damn fine unit, Im so impressed with it. Have been using 90's for nearly a year, and this just s*#s all over it. the atty is HUGE and so are the carts. at least 30drops per cart. i havent broken it in et, but the vapour is off the hook. throat hit is ok, but im using cherry flavour which doesnt have much of a hit anyways. very very very good unit. sleek, and stylish and comes up with the goods. ive only tried it with the one piece cone shaped attys, havent had a go with the LR 510 attys i bought as well. dont know if im game to though cause i read a couple of posts about them killing the batts? anyways id highly recommend this to eeryone.

Happy vaping
