My first step up is a vv eGo-t type A from eGo. I'm the 2nd minority here which haven't had much problem with the eGo-T system except when the first time i got it, it has the burning taste due to atty not wicking properly which i have already overcome it with minor adjustment to the tank carts.
But then i got greedy and step up yet again and went for ProVari which till now i have not regretted for overspending. Its also a vv mod that has a LED display menu that u can cycle thru to different functions like checking the ohm of ur atty/cartos, adjusting the voltage from 3.3v - 6v with 0.1v increment etc.
Also, if u have the eGo cone, u can try the CE2 clearomiser which works well for me, only with the cone! as it protect the tube of the clearo from cracking and breakage. Now i use the clearos on my arry tank and so far so good. cept for some downside which can be overcome easily as well.

Currently using Ovale eGo-C x 3 weeks. Also using Joytech eGo-T's since September. After lurking through ECF I can't see what the negative fuss is about eGos! I use them all day, never a leak, haven't even changed an atomizer. Only problem I've experienced is with one vender's 100% VG - it fouled my atty; it cleaned up nice using info from ECF (thanks!). My original vender, ecigexpress, highly recommended NOT using 100% VG due to the greater viscosity. Did I listen - NO! Currently using 50/50 mixes with great results. No analogs for over a month and as happy as a pig in s@$%. As in many purchases on the internet, I avoid knockoffs and go for the brandname, maybe this is why I've had few problems(?)
I got two pairs of them, Ego, Ego-T. Both of them read 4.2V something in my multimeter.
That is when fresh off of the charger. I don't have a way to test them under load. So it must be around 3.7V -+ with a standard carto/atty.
I searched and I found one link so far.

The ego is 3.4v. It's a great PV, I just like the 3.7vs more. But I don't mind the ego at all. A 3.7v will give a slightly warmer vape and alittle more th, ad that's what I like.
While many people have used LR cartos on eGos with no problems, theres also just as many people that have turned their eGos into paperweights doing it.
What it does is leave very little room for error. If your not careful you can fairly easily fry the mosfet, rendering the device useless. That's why I like the Epower, bc it handles LRs well and if a switch does go bad, you can just buy a new one for under 10 bucks.
It might work perfectly fine on an ego for awhile, but eventually you will fry it. I know after I post this there's gona be a bunch of people that contest to it and say they have never fried one, but you need to also realize there are also alot of people that have fried one, and some more than one!
If your going to use LR on an ego, use 2.0ohms, most people have better luck with them.
At lowest use 1.7ohm, but I think that's pushing it. A few of my friends fried their egos with 1.7ohm cartos. But hey your welcome to use whatever you'd like, it's your choice, just be careful.
Balthezar, I really wouldnt use 1.5ohm dual coils. Your really pushing it and putting a LOT of stress on it. I think your asking to fry it but that's your choice.
If your going to do it, I recommend using a multimeter and testing the ohms of every dual coil you use. Most people that have fried one is bc their cartos ohms dropped and then fried it. You need to remember that all of them are not going to be 1.5ohms. Normally it's +/- .2ohms, but I've even seen a 1.5ohm run at 1.2 on a multimeter. If one of your dual coils runs that low your pretty much guaranteed to fry it
So Id at least use a multimeter, bc you will give yourself better chances of not doing it and catching a carto that could ruin your battery.

"I know after I post this there's gona be a bunch of people that contest to it and say they have never fried one," Ummm.....you mean me? LOL I wouldn't do that to you
Thanks rob, my next order will prob be the 2.0. Although everything I've read about them says not to use with less than 400mah, and the eGo is 650mah. But I will heed the advice of everyone, and go 2.0 next time. Thanks for your concern
And I really mean it, my friend.
See, you can teach this old dog new tricks.

I'd like ego-t lr for everyday, 901-lr (with 901-510 adapter) for dripping, and have F1-giantomizer (while I haven't lost it). They all have long life, not leaking.
Also make RSTS (dumb battery mode for one 18650), very good vapour, but the button has lived not for long.
Have some troubles with CE2, friend have CE3 - leak constantly, and taste weak.

Cuz the CE2's tube is weak like paper. a slight bent to it will render the whole tube loose. which is why i suggest if anyone wanna use it, its gotta be on a eGo with the cone. so that the cone acts as a protection and also the cone fits in as the hole in the cone at the top is the same diameter as the eGo cartridge.

If you get a good 5 volt model, whether it be a box mod or a top of the line model like the 5 volt GLV2, there is no need for LR attys/cartos and you will get a great vape using dual coils or standard resistence cartos/attys. The same holds true for a good variable volt model. Some have batteries with mAh ratings of 1800 or higher. And if the model is regulated and/or has "boost circuit" technology, there is no performance drop off due to battery drain.
in the 2 years I've been vaping my perfect ecig experience has been a precise plus 18650 mod from supertmanufacturing (lifetime warranty, stainless steel construction and all mechanical)...
with a redilast 3100mAh 18650 battery...
and 1.8 ohm io6 atty and drip tip from Ikenvape...
it gives me everything...tons of worm vapor, throat hit, flavor.... really long battery life (like 2+ days of heavy vaping)... and parts that last a long time without having to be replaced (my first io6 was from before it was even called the io6 but a 1.8ohm 306 from ikenvape and it lasted me like 6 months)

+1 on a good box mod or 5v (love mine).....but realize that some of your juices may not benefit from hotter vaping. A good basic ego kit may only be a stepping stone to your final "sweet spot" that you prefer. It will depend on what you feel is missing, could be short battery life?, or not enough vapor?, or not enough TH?, or not enough heat?, or not enough flavor?, too much refilling? Each can have a different answer, and combination of PV and juice supply.
Vaping is not a one size fits all, the ego has sufficient battery life and power to be able to try out options. Different cartos, attys, tanks will all fit a 510 connection. It allows you to take off the "training wheels" and experiment..

I agree with Stosh
The ego-t with the 1100mah batteries have been an excellent first time off the analog look a likes for me. So much so, I continue to use it next to my glv-2. I use joyetech 1.5 lr atomizers on my ego-t and my glv 5 volt with no problems as long as I keep them wet.
I am patiently waiting for the precise plus 18650 to be available, as this is my next.

Thank you every one for your in put and suggestions. I think I have narrowed it down to the E-Power 14650 ( I like all the replacement parts) ad the KGO (Riva). I will keep you posted on my decision.
One more question, will all 510 cartomizers fit these?
Thanks again

Yes, both the riva and e-power should have the 510 threading. If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.
Yes balth, you are right. The E-Power and kGo both will work with 510 attys/cartos.
Im alittle confused with the other one you were considering besides the E-Power though, you put kGo (Riva). The kGo and Riva are 2 different PVs.
Whichever one you choose I think youll really like. The E-Power, Riva, and kGo are all great PVs that I think will give you exactly what your looking for to get you going. When I first started it was between the E-Power and kGo. It really depends on your situation. For me, Im a college student who pays for school himself, so being on a budget, the E-Power was perfect for me.
E-Power batteries cost $4 and last alot longer before they need to be replaced, while the kGo batteries cost about $18 for a replacement. Plus being able to buy cheap replacement parts individually was also a big plus for me.
And the deal at CCV for the E-Power was perfect for me. You get $25 in free stuff so its everything you need to really get going.
Being able to try the Ressurectors for free was also a plus and they are what I now use daily. And the free 30ml of juice was nice too.
The kGo is also a great PV though and I think youll be very happy with either of them
Goodluck and let us know what you go with!

That's what I thought and being new to vapeing I am going by what I read. That is the way thy I thought I read the description from NE vapors
Kgo (riva)1100 mah
KGO (Riva) 1100mAh Electronic Cigarette Starter Kit - $49.46
I may be reading the description wrong but I see what I see
Again thanks for the input. This is a learning experiance. Even though I and dropping money on several different PV to find the exact one that fits my needs. I am enjoying this and staying off of analogs
