I forgot to ask. Is the physical size of your battery acceptible to you? Is the length of battery time to your liking?
Have you experimented with variable voltage yet, and do you think this is a good choice for a new vapor?
How do you compare the juice delivery devices that you got, and which do you prefer, and why?
I like to hear feedback on the things I reccomend.
Baditude, again the man with good advice, and always willing to help us out.
On variable voltage, after my initial eGo-c kit, I bought two 1000mah batteries (kit came with 650mah's)- then bought a 1000mah VV twist to mate with my Kanger T3s, the T3 holds a lot more juice- about 2 days worth, I use this at home. The power of the VV twist is beneficial to even a new vapor, as it allows a better taste experience and vapor production nessasary to fulfill a young Vapers, soon to be more sophisticated desire- kinda like going from a BLU to an eGo 510.
My eGo-Cs are my everyday vape tools, small enough to carry in a pocket, last all day ( I carry an extra cartridge or two with me each day- but have yet to need them...but, better safe than sorry !)
I find the eGo cartridges easy to fill and use, and the flavor and vapor production is good enough to satisfy any former 2 PAD smoker.
Not so with cig-a-likes, flavor is weak, battery life is weak, vapor production is weak, choice of flavor is weak--Price of consumption is High relative to eGo vapor and flavor production. I believe they are a rip off, but people start vapping in different ways, then they find better choices- if they are not turned off by the initial experience.
I recently bought an eGo eVic- it is a great vaporizer, paired with a Vision Eternity RBA which I use for dripping Flavors.
The eVic has great vapor production, is Techie, fantastic battery life and ease of use-and the flavor of the vapor is very good, but I attribute that to more of a function of the Vision Eternity than the eVic it's self.
All in all, the eVic is a evolutionary upgrade to my vapping, not a revolutionary one. Mods seem to be just bigger and more powerful batteries with fancy switches. That said...I do really enjoy the VV/VW of it- and the changes in vapor production and taste are well worth the reasonable upgrade cost. I use this only at home in the evenings- as small as it is, it is too large with the eternity RBA to carry around day to day. (And I don't want to break my new 'Toy')
As with any endeavor, we usually start small, with baby steps- and progress as our needs/abilities and finances allow.
But in Vapping, for most of us- we are trying to get a monkey off our backs- and it ain't easy. I would think that for someone to have the best chance to beat the addiction, you would need a good starter system. I think the ego system is tried and true. It is portable, easy enough to use Day to Day, and produces a very good quantity and quality of vapor to enjoy- and is upgradeable as our sophistication with vapping grows and our sense of taste improves.
Funny, I bought a couple of the convenience store 'Cig-a-likes' before,- they tasted like 'air', they produced a very small amount of vapor- not much, and they cost twice as much as a pack of ciggys- they only last a smoker for an hour ! Now, I get mad when I see them because I know that there are so many better alternatives available- just not as available as a convenience store in my small community.
Side note: I met my first 'Vapper in the wild' at a gig I was DJ at last night...ran up to talk with him. He was using some cig a like, and his eyes popped when I showed him my eGo-C with cartrages and another with my Twist battery. I know what 'Doug' is going to be buying this week !
