I see everyone here talking about how good the ego is, I have used No.7 (meh) green smoke (to leaky and inconsistent taste for the price) and my favorite thus far the Vapor King (vapor4Life)

I'm wonder if anyone knows how the VK auto stands up against the ego, and the cart quality. Their juice so far rocks (except pink lemon aid, who wants to smoke pink lemon aid anyway!! lol)

Any one who has had both, I'd love to see the pros and cons to help me decide if I should settle with what I have or keep searching for something better.

hands down EGO/Riva/Hello/ are all way better in just my opinion, the batts last way longer, why use a Batt Auto or manual that only last for an hour or two when you can use one that last you for 5-7 hours. V4L has decent juice but there are also others out there that are much better too. Basically its all up to the user and what you like but I would bet if you went to one of these other batts and an LR carto or Atty you would stay with the new one.

I don't know what the vk is but I just got the usb ego from goodprophets.com and I'm going to be getting one extra one the ego is prefect imo. I have the kr8 and the ego has more vap. The kr8 has more of a warm smoke but if you get a LR atomizer you will be good. Plus if you order from there for 1st time you get a free 30ml bottle. You can't go wrong with the ego its prefect in my opinion it has so many option's

I have to agree on the eGo. I ordered mine from LF. Been using mine as my main PV. I have since retired 3 other PVs because the eGo does the job of all 3 and then some.

LF is running a 20% off all purchases. And you get a full 2 kit setup. You would have to buy a drip tip, but well worth it, plus shipping in the US is only 2.99 :)

Check out my eGo Review vid... maybe it'll help you decide.

I also have some other eGo based vids on my channel as well.

I looked into the VK and me personally I would pass on it for another eGo kit. But I can't choose for you.

Happy Vapin!

OK
I think it somewhat boils down to this. If you like what you have - why change? The EGO without any question will produce more vapor and the battery last much longer. But you may prefer smaller, you may prefer the taste or whatever - of the KR808 (that is the V4L model).

If it ain't broke don't fix it. If it is broke, then buy the EGO/Riva.

My friend came down 2 weeks ago with her VK auto. Some of the cartos tasted better than a standard e-cig, but once I tried my eGo last week, I doubt I go with any other PV, unless they come out with a newer edition of the eGo or eGo XL add ons.

To me the VK tasted like any other auto, whereas my eGo is nothing but flavor.

The VK does kick out alot of vapor for an auto, and I really can't compare my eGo to that being the eGo blows it away.

The VK battery lasted her a full day, but she's a 3 hour hitter, whereas my eGo I take a puff every 30s - 1m and it rocks 1 standard battery for me about 22-23ish hours.

If you're happy with your current PV, keep it, no sense in spending money. But if you are looking for better vape, better flavor, and better battery life I would def suggest a GENUINE eGo.

My personal view is there is mainly ONE reason to buy anything other than an EGO/Riva - and that is the mental thing. Some want something like an analog in size. I wouldn't dismiss this as it plays into the addiction/habit thing.

The actual function of an E-Cig is only part of the equation. It is a variation of form and function to get what people need/want.

I started with the VK from V4L. Then my mom got the eGo through Steves PIF offer on here and she didn't like it. Not enough like a cig look for her. She loved my KR808 from V4L so I ordered her a kit from them also, she uses it but still smokes too. Me too, I won't deny it but I have yet to find the right juice.

I LOVE the eGo~! Great battery life, and it has the option of cartomizers or atty/carts, something V4L doesn't offer. I find the V4L cartos (or possibly the juice) produce dissapointing vapor, and I have to pull much harder on them to get a suitable puff. I'd love to try an atty on a KR808, I think that would improve it for me but I don't know. The eGo is smooth and produces vapor like carzy~! Plus the battery life is sooo much better~!

Have you tried their new WOW cartomizers? I ordered a KR808 and may try them eventually. My hunch is they are nothing more than an increase in VG to create more vapor. But i am not sure...
