I was so excited. I was watching our little news channel and one of our doctors came on TV talking about smoking cessation. He put a plug in for E-cigs and encouraged his patients to try it if they are struggling to quit...woo whoooo!!!! I love it!

OK, I'm jumping the gun a little bit because I just received it today but I thought I'd start this thread for everybody's personal experiences, questions and comments about the Joyetech Twist vv battery. I ordered mine Sunday, got shipped out Monday, in my mailbox Tuesday from Mike & Carol's Internet Store. They have the best prices I have seen and obviously fast service. I chose the 650mah battery for $20.99 + $2.99 shipping. 1000mah sells for $24.49. Here are my preliminary findings of my 650mah twist: It is nearly identical in size and shape as a regular 1000mah ego battery. (mabey 1mm longer and same diameter) The twist dial on the bottom has etchings that are hard to see but go from 3.2v to 4.8v. There is no click between volt settings and the dial turns about 270 degrees, 3/4 of a full turn. The light is green on the charger! First vape at 3.2 with ego c setup and lr coil: It works. A little on the light side, now at 4.8.... Definite voltage change but this thick juice isn't working well with c-tank, switching to standard 510 atty... It's working like a champ! Very nice. More to come after I play with it for a while and compare it to my ProVari mini.

"E-health" just sounds like a POS haha

Yeah my ego-c tanks and attys have gone in the drawer to save as a backup for my backups lol. Right now all i'm usin are boge LR's and smoktech DCC's. I'm sure I'll try out a vision clearo sooner or later. Haven't played around w/ my 306's on different voltages, but I noticed I really really like my Boba's at higher voltages. To me it finishes w/ a slight marshmellow like flavor that tastes real good as a warmer vape, whereas w/ my fruity flavors i like it lower and cooler.

E-Health Cigarettes, I should of just gave the ten bucks away :p

I picked one up too, so far so good. I was worried how vaping at a higher voltage would affect the battery life, but it still seems to last me most of the day. Nice the be able to bump it up a bit when you're craving that extra throat hit. I'm usually staying between 3.4-4.0

SmokelessImage (where you probably got your Volt) has some new, larger batteries. I am using one of their 1300mAh ones now. They also have some new clearomizers that work well. They produce a lot more vapor than their smaller batteries. Welcome to the forum. http://smokelessimage.com/

Many of us have been in your shoes Dotty. As others have suggested, i'd reccomend and ego or kgo kit, but I prefer a carto setup as opposed to the tank systems most of them come with, so really all you'd need is a couple batteries if you don't want to pickup the whole kit. As for the draw, are you looking for a looser or tighter draw? If you looking for a loose airy draw, i'd go w/ boge low resistance cartomizers. If you're looking for a tighter, less airy draw, i'd go with some smoktech dual coil low resistance (1.5 ohms) cartomizers. Both perform real well. Pick up some cartos, 2 batteries, and some juice and you're all set. If you like dripping add a 306 low resistance atty or two.

The least "airy" drag I've come across is on my ego-c (tornado-c from totally wicked) but same none the less. That has IMO a stiff draw. On the other hand I've got a 306 dripping atty that sounds and feels like I'm sucking air from a 3" PVC pipe lol, not stiff by any means. Both give a great vape for me but night and day difference. I would assume the next natural step in vaping would be something along the lines of an ego. You could always bypass that and move straight into the mods arena but you'll need to do your research (i'm still researching) and go from there. This thing we call vaping has unlimited possibilities and combinations so be prepared to have a LOT of trail and error. At least that has been my experience and still is for that matter. Happy Vaping -mse12 p.s. I started with blucigs back in 2010 and went back to analogs for over a year before I truly started my smoke free life. Stick with it and do not get discouraged to the point of going back. You will find something that works, it may not be 100% but it will work well enough to keep at it and enjoy it. For me that is direct dripping. It works well enough while I am still looking for MY perfect combination.

Welcome to Vapor Talk Dottymay. You will get used to dragging on an ecig in no time. Some types have an easy draw some do not but mostly you should be doing the same thing. Take a slower, easier draw and for longer than you did with traditional cigarettes and you'll get better results. I use a Volt and I get plenty of vapor. The eliquid that it's filled with has a little to do with it also but that's another story. eGo type batteries are great for long battery life and there are many options to set it up the way you want. You can put a carto on it or tank clearomiser or a atty with a cartridge or drip tip. Any questions, just ask.

you may want to look in to a simple eGo or kGo kit, both can be had in 1000mah and up batteries. your current volt batteries are 220mah if they're the shorties or 320mah if they're the bit longer ones. so you can see how much more battery life you'd get out of one. about 3 or 4x as much depending on what battery your'e using now. either that or you could look at any number of other "fat batts". smokelessimage sells a nice one called the x2 or v2 or something. they can be either manual or automatic. and since they're 808 threaded you could continue to use your current carto's. they're a bit pricey but you can find some promo codes around. twelveday beat me to it lol. he brings up a lot of good points, like the vg for more vapor. as far as the "sucking air" type hit, how are you hitting your ecig? it's different than you would on a ciggy. on a pv, you want a slow, soft drag, don't suck on it like a vacuum. lol

you can move up to an ego or kgo kit, which is bigger than the cigarette style volts. The Volts (kr808 styl batteries) are the best stick style ecigarettes i think, i use em for my portables. I got their PCC to fix the battery life issue. All ecigs have that sucking in air type deal, because its what you're doing basically , there has to be air holes for flow. If you want to upgrade for more battery life you can try the next step up, they are bigger batteries than the cigarette style volts though. Kgo runs at true 3.7v, you can get one of those at various places. If you want better hits and such you can try upgrading to a mod and try running at above 3.7v, (i think the volt is a 3.6v). Mods are much bigger though so it might depend on your preferences. If you don't want upgrade to something bigger, you can always try using higher 70%+VG e-liquid in your cartomizers for your Volt, they will produce more vapor. You can also move to a low resistance cartomizer, I use the boge kr808 cartomizers. If you can't find them anywhere I buy my boge 808 cartomizers from sweet-vapes, they also have a nice eliquid selection where you can select you VG%. ps: oh yeah, and to try to get rid of the "airy" hits, try covering some of the air holes with your fingers when you inhale
