Which ego with the least amount of fiddling?

[TTplays]

I am on information overload! I'm thinking get started with maybe 2 kits a 510 and an eGo? Even after continuously reading the reviews on them I am still unsure of which one?
I am looking to do the least amount of fiddling and I am always out and about with kids (but hide smoking) so that plays a factor.

Any advice appreciated, thanks.

The fiddling isn't with the battery but with the juice delivery. Attomizers, cartomizers, clearomizers, and such. I found the best thing for me was a cartomizer and a tank, but if your a light smoker I would think that a clearomizer or cartomizer with a drip tip is right up your ally. When it comes to batt's it pretty much about battery life off of a fresh charge. Rule of thumb is for every 100 mah (milliamp hours) a battery is rated you will get about 1 hour of life off of a fresh charge. So if you are out and about alot I would recommend at least a 650mah battery (6.5hrs +/-). I would recommend getting 2 batt's to begin with especially if they are less than 650 mah. I hope this helps and welcome to the forum.

Take a look at the warranty info on the website. There's no real fiddling with either one. You can use cartomizers on both- boge 3.0 on the 510 and you can use the 3.0 or lower resistance 2.0 on the ego. Of course you know the battery doesn't last real long with the 510 mini, but you can pick up 510 batteries on sale pretty cheap.

Just remember that the charger isn't interchangeable.

I would suggest an eGo with the Boge 3.0 cartomizer. Load a couple up with juice at home, put them in your pocket with the silicone covers on and head out to see the world. If you load them up the same just switch when one starts to lose flavor but before you burn the wick. Or load up different flavors and switch when you just want a different taste/flavor combo.

About how long does it take to burn a wick?

Not long at all if the juice is gone. The trick is to realize when the flavor is getting low and add liquid to it right away. After a few more draws you'll get a terrible harsh hit, and then it's too late. I'd also recommend the eGo Vision cartos. They're a little too mild for my tastes, but for ease of use they are very good.

Here's an Ecig glossary that explains most of the Ecig parts and terminology:

About how long it takes to burn the "wick"/ filling depends on heavy a smoker you are. How many you smoke per day and the brand will also reflect on the level of nicotine juice you'll need.

The boge cartomizers hold around 1 ml of juice. Most people vape between 2-5 ml a day. You don't vape a cartomizer completely dry, so when flavor drops off add some drops of e-liquid or fill up 3-4 cartomizers for the day. Then fill them at night or in the morning.

That's what I did when I first started vaping. Kept a bunch filled and just refilled them at the end of the night. If you get a couple drip tips to put on the end of your cartomizer, it's easier to top them off instead of trying to pry the little end cap off.

I'm sure you'll probably burn a couple cartomizers- we all do. Yuck! But you begin to know when it's time to top them off.

Least amount of fiddling I have found was the Ego-T with Ego Mega Dual Coil Cartomizer... That's what I started on (dumped my ego-t atomizers within a few days of having to clean and mess with the wicks and what not, then I found the boge low resistance cartomizers (2 Ohm) and dumped the Mega Dual Coil Cartomizer, there's a bit more refilling needed with the boges but in my opinion it is worth it... Now i've moved on to trying out dripping and just got a lavatube 1.5 but I'd say start with the ego batteries and the mega dual coils... If you're looking for a bit of a longer battery life, the KGO kits are nice, 1100mah they will also get you a bit more voltage as well...
