II bought the 21st century brand about a month ago. I like it and all but it doesnt completely take away my cravings. I still needed to buy a regular pack of ciggarettes every other day. About a week ago stopped using it. would like advice or recommendations for switching to a stronger brand.


If you want something small, the smokeless image Volt is the way to go. The 78mm batteries last 3-4 hours of moderate vaping. The cartos last a long time, can be refilled several times and don't burn easily. They have the same amount of voltage as a kgo and more than an ego. They are reasonably priced and there is a 15% off coupon. Their customer service is also second to none and has fast shipping. Here's a video on the volt. It also talks about what you need to be successful no matter what company you use. The video also shows the x2 which is like the kgo, so you can get an idea of the difference.

If you want something larger than a cigarette, the ego twist is a great device. Altsmoke has them for $22.99 for the 650mah and $25.99 for the 1000mah. Make sure you get two so you have a backup.

I have to correct you here. The Volt is (quoted directly from their site) "Regulated 3.6 volts
7 second cutoff time". The KGO is a 4.2 volt device. It vapes at the lowest level with a dual coil carto on it at 3.85 volts. The KGO is the King of EGOS. A standard EGO is also a 3.6v device. This is what makes the KGO superior but it's main drawback is its lack of variable voltage like the EGO C Twist. Neither the KGO or the EGO C Twist have a cutoff time, which is preferably. Sometimes you want a 15 second vape like before you go to bed to make you hit it and quit it.

Dear OP: Follow the rest of his advice because he is 100% right on where you should get one and the price is the lowest I've seen on the net. I know for a fact that they sell for 18 bucks straight from china so 5 bucks for them to wait the 2 weeks to deliver it by boat, plus the fact that they have to order them in lots of 50 or more, is totally worth it.

Here's a review on the EGO C Twist by a 3+ year veteran who owns or has at least tried almost every PV in existence:

You are correct in what the Smokeless image website says, however, as someone who uses it and has tested it, I can tell you that it vapes at 3.7-3.8v under load. This is also discussed in the pbusardo video on the mini volt. As for the big battery (x2) it starts off at around 4.2v and works its way to about 3.7-3.8 and has a 10 second shutoff) The standard ego is 3.3-3.4v, which is right on the gotvapes website as well. I do agree however, that the kgo is a superior device to the ego. But, every review have seen on the kgo has shown that the kgo starts at 4.2v and works its way to 3.7-3.8v.

As far as the the cutoff, that is not true. The ego twist has a 10 second shutoff. You want to shutoff. It is for protection, even the provari, which everyone arguably says is the best device out there has a shutoff time.

Id prefer something I only have to charge every 12 hours or so. otherwise ill start craving real ciggarettes. Id also prefersomething just to be a little stronger than 21st century

Unless you are a very light vaper, that will be hard to find. I'm a heavy vaper and mine lasts 18 - 21 hours but they are currently not available.

The Silver Bullet takes an 18650 mAh (I believe) battery which could give you 12 hours on a charge. I would add a "kick" to it for $45 which would give you one of the better models on the market.

For a next step up from the cig-a-like, I'd suggest a couple of Twist batteries and then start experimenting with things to put on them (cartomizers, clearomizers, etc.). One of them will not last 12 hours……but a pair of them should. The 650 lasts me about 5-6 hours of normal vaping, though IHNFC how that would translate to how long it would last with you. I think they're a great step up without spending a lot of money, and the way they do VV makes me not want to bother with mods for the time being.

Other then buying a new set of batt or kit maybe you're craving for cigs because of the low nicotine?? Try somethng with more nic in it. I was smoking 30 cigs of M****** a day and started with 18mg..... still on the same but reducing soon. I am vaping for 5 months now and did only try to smoke half a cig......bblllaaaaahhhh
