3 days ago I purchased an ego one vt and it has been working perfectly fine, I was actually impressed with how well it vapes, creating plenty of vapour and not a single dry hit. Last night I was vaping for a couple mins and went to take another hit and no vapour came out, i looked at the device and the lights stayed on and the button continuously flashes, it has been 12+ hours and it is still flashing. Charging seems to work fine but the battery will not fire at all. I have tried every combination of buttons and nothing seems to work... any ideas anyone?

Thanks to my buddy yzrmbsg I decided to add the hookah tube to my super ego detonator because of the belt attachment on the back of the box. Parts: Old tube from a nebulizer with groove cut in hard plastic end to hold rubber grommet. Old rubber grommet off of drip tip from sh!tty mega ego atomizer Mega dual coil eGo cartomizer The nebulizer tube end was the EXACT same diameter as the drip tip for the mega eGo atty so I figured if I mod it to hold a grommet it would plug into my new dual coil mega eGo cartos. And it did... :-D I think this might be really really bad lol. This tube is right next to my face all the time. :-p I don't think I should use it in public

Ego-C! This Is What Vapor Is Supposed To Taste Like.
sasetrase posted a topic in e Cigarette Reviews
I have owned the Ego-C for about 45 days now. I own a VVTube mod, and use that for dripping when I am at home, and I have realized...that besides testing juices out rapidly. There is no real point in using my VVtube. I get the same flavor from my Ego-C. While the Ego-C is a static voltage device, the LR attys allow you to get a very warm and flavorful vapor, with all the flavor and deliciousness of dripping. WITHOUT ACTUALLY DRIPPING! I love it. I know everyone has used a carto for about a week or two and you just keep using it even though the draw gets a little tight, or the flavor mutes out a bit, to save money. After all, why throw away something that works right? With the Ego c, after filling and assmbling the very easy to use Ego-C cone assembly. it works just as a cartomizer or flux or whatever other cartidge you stick on the end of your EGO style battery. But it works BETTER. With a huge tank, 1 mL is the volume I am able to fit into my tanks. I just want to do a quick comparision to a few cartos I have used and let you know of the flavor difference and what other things I have noticed. All are used on the same Ego 5 click battery. About 25 charging cycles, after fully charging to save from voltage drop off differences. I used a very flavorful juice that I love dripping with. Atomic Cinnacide, at 24mg, 70/20 PG/VG. Cartos were used about 1 week total, and upon writing this I sat down, vaped on it for about 20 minutes, and wrote my exact experience based on how I felt the vape was for the past 20 minutes. I took a 10 minute break between the vapes, and randomly decided which was next with blindfold and grab technique. Delivery Device Ressurector, 1.7 ohm - Flavorful, convienient, I love the after taste when I chain vape for about 2 minutes and let the carto get a little hot. Lots of vapor, lots of flavor. Flavor- 7, Throat hit- 7, Vapor production- 7 Dripping with VVtube at 4.8 with 3 ohm 510 atty- Lots of flavor, PITA, had to change my atty I was using due to a previous flavor that remained. New atty is great. Love the huge Throat hit and the amazing vapor production, dry hits pretty often...flooding...get me a napkin. Flavor-10 when it hits well, -2 when I get a dry hit, Throat hit- 10, Vapor production- 9. Very warm and delicious vape Ego-C, LR atty- Solid vapor production. Very flavorful. Simple. French Vape is super fun with the warm vapor (up through the nose after in mouth). Consistent, delicious, warm, and easy. Lots of flavor and vapor. Flavor-10, Throat hit- 10, Vapor production-10. So consistent it is rediculous. Ego mega dual coil carto 1.5 LR- Excellent vapor production, but noticable less flavor than the Ego-C attachment. Kind of dissappointed. Flavor is there, but below what it was with the Ego-C. Flavor-7 (could be more if I wasn't coming off of the Ego-C. If i was previously using a 510 1.5 it might be higher...hard to be 100% sure) Throat hit-8, Vapor Production- 9 Very solid vape. All in all, the Ego-C is just like a carto, at a slightly higher pricetag to get started. about 15 bucks for the cone, and then 5 bucks an atty, with the platic tank expense still to be mentioned at about .50-.70 cents a pop. When you do a carto, if you pay 6 bucks for a single carto you better be getting the BEST DAMN VAPE OF YOUR LIFE! and honestly. I can say that with the Ego-C it is close. If you are an Ego user. If you vape at 7.4 you can honestly forget it But for someone who just likes simple, standard, and easy. Pick up a cone, a set of LR attys, and a 5 pack of tanks and get rocking. For about 50 bucks you can try this setup out...which is a standard MOD pricetag, but you will fall in love with it. If price points are your concern, stick with the Boge2.0, EMDCC, or res you are using, but if you want DD flavor and production, without the hassle. I don't know what you are waiting for. #getatit. -
Hello Vapers! I am rather new to the world of vaping, I own a V2 starter kit as well as a G6 starter kit from Halo Cigs (Which I like better than V2). Today I ordered a Tornado eGo-C and am just looking for any possible tips or tricks that any eGo veterans may have. I have read some running into wicking issues and possible burns, not as much leaking with the C I'm hoping. But it all in all seemed to be a good product. So hopefully all go wells with this kit! Thanks!

Before I start my review of the eGo-c I'm just gonna throw out there that this is my first post and I am a brand new member to this forum, however I am not new to electronic cigarettes but this is my first review ever so... Here it goes I have been smoking analog cigarettes for almost 6 years before I actually quit smoking completely. I did not know about electronic cigarettes until 2 years ago when I was first introduced to them by my good friends mother. I remember that I always wanted to quit smoking and that seemed like a good alternative, she bought hers from a vendor called vapor4life and it was their brand e-cig along with the flavor. That was the first time I have ever tried an electronic cigarette and I have to say I was pretty impressed. That's when I decided I was going to buy one for my self. I have spent hours researching when I finally purchased my first e-cig a year ago, it was the GreenSmoke electronic cigarette. When I recieved the package I remember that the greensmoke was much better than the first one I tried and that it didn't feel too odd compared to a analog. The 2 piece carto design was good, and very convenient for a noob, you just screw on a color coded carto and you're good to go. But that wasn't really what I was looking for, the battery life was a joke and the cartos didn't last long enough for me. So as time went on I grew sick of that e-cig and slowly went back to my newport/turkish royal routine. A little less than a year went by, and after having tried a few e-cigs (disposables, Blu, 7-11 brand, and the 510) I realized that maybe i should look into a different type of e-cigs. That's when I stumbled across the Joye eGo series. At first I didn't know much about them, but I did some research and I decided to purchase the joye ego-c from cignot. I ordered the starter kit with 5 Low Resistance atomizer heads and one 1000mah battery along with the regular 650mah. First of all I wanna say I am very impressed by the customer service, I changed my order and everything still went smoothly and quickly. Shipping was quick but the package only traveled 42 miles so I can't really say anything about that. The product arrived at my house 2 weeks ago on wednesday and as soon as it was in my hands I threw the 1000mah on the charger so it can be on full charge and started vaping with the 650mah battery and the tobacco flavor that came with the kit. At first the flavor was horrid and burned my throat, but I soon realized that I read somewhere about some oil that is in the atomizer and I think that's what I was tasting. As I vaped through about two full tanks the nasty flavor went away and the atomizer finally broke in. That's when I could actually taste the flavor, enjoy blowing thick clouds, and ever since all I can say is wow. I'm gonna start on the battery life: I found the 1000mah battery life very impressive as it lasted me since wednesday night until saturday night of pretty heavy vaping (I used to be a half a pack a day smoker, I seem to go thru about 2 tanks of liquid in a day) The 650 is just about 2 days, sometimes a little less depending on how often I use it. The overall design is nice and sleek, very pen-like and feels really solid. Putting the eGo together wasn't too hard, it's kinda like legos you just have to fit a few pieces together and it's done.(I don't like to use instructions) The eGo is very easy to use, and the new battery life indicator on the batteries is a nice touch. Vapor production in my opinion is great, I know it depends on the PG/VG mix, but I found that I get very nice vapor from both very dark and thick or light and thin liquids(I've heard about some wicking problem with the eGo-T not sure if it is still an issue with the eGo-C). The flavor is very nice and distinct. I've read reviews that the flavor of the vapor on the eGo is a bit light, but I have never personally experienced this problem. I haven't tried many flavors as I am new to the tank system as well as the liquids since I used to vape from a 2 piece carto design, but I am currently in posession of 5 different flavors; 16mg coffee flavor I got from the local smoke shop (Ironically also named VT), 16mg tobacco that came with the kit, 24mg RY8 from pink spot vapors (favorite so far) 24mg Nuhport I got from a online website(tastes nothing like a newport, more like tootpaste) and a 24mg pinkspotvapor signature flavor I got as a gift. the RY8, coffee and the tobacco are great. The Nuhport and pink aren't the best, but that's just my opinion. I would like to find a good menthol flavor but I don't know where to look, there's about 1 thousand different ones online so maybe someone can guide me to a good one? Throat Hit has been plenty for me, I have only used 16mg and 24mg liquids though so I don't know about any weaker ones, but I assume it would still be good. The price is right, what can I say I got 2 batteries, 5 pre-filled tanks, 5 atomizers and a charger for $79 with free shipping. Overall score - 5/5 Battery life - 5/5 Value - 5/5 Vapor Production - 5/5 Throat Hit - 5/5 Flavor - 5/5 Design - 4/5 (Only reason I give it 4/5 is because it looks like you're sucking on a pen and then blowing out smoke, but I don't really like to smoke my e-cig in public places anyways so it doesn't matter) Overall the eGo-c is a fantastic little device and the quality of the product is outstanding. As I said before this is my first review but this website was like my bible when researching e-cigarettes so I just wanted to throw in my two cents.

Hi all. Thought I'd make my first post on this forum a review of my new toy, the joye (ovale) ego-c. Disclaimer: I'm not a vendor or associated with any vendor in any way. I've been vaping for 3 years, and gone through a bunch of equipment: 901s, 401s, 808s, 510s, 306s, egos and ego variants. The ego-c is new from joye and I believe is currently only offered by ovale and I know totally wicked will be getting it shortly. I expect many other joye Distributors will get it in the new year. If your not familiar with it, the ego-c is essentially an ego-t with a removable, replaceable, disposable atty. there are a few other improvements, as I discuss below, also, check out joyetech's website and there's a couple YouTube reviews of it too. Got my ego-c nov 17 at 5 pm. Been using it exclusively since then (just under 48 hrs as of this posting) Couple of assumptions first: Normally I'm a carto guy, LR Boge cartos on either the silver bullet or the kgo battery. I tend to like 80/20 16 or 18 mg juice in tobacco and/or coffee and Carmel favors. I am not a big fruity flavor person. I have not tried the ego-t before I got the ego-c. Last, I am not a "fiddler" I do not want to have to fiddle with my PV just to get it to consistently vape the way I want. I want to pick it up, vape and put it away. That's why I normally don't drip, toss my cartos when they start to leak, burn, taste bad and don't mix juices in cartos (or attys when I do drip). That said, here's my first impressions: 24 hr overview: The ego-c rocks. Wow. The kit: pretty standard starter kit: comes with 2 ego natural batteries with 5 click, 2 cones, 2 atty bases which hold the replaceable atty module, a blister pack of 5 attys, USB cable, USB wall plug, 5 tanks, small packet of rubber replacement end caps, little cloth pouch, bottle of mystery juice and instructions. Fit & finish: first rate, nice hand feel, branding all over it but tasteful. Vapor production: tons. Bloog/volt like (my experience is that Bloog/volt put out tons of vapor). Seriously a lot better vapor production than my normal setup. Taste: very good. Compared to the carto, I think this is a bit lower in taste. However, that could be because the juices I like taste better when they are really cooked/almost burnt (Carmelized). The ego-c is seems to be producing a "cleaner" vape and taste is affected. However, fruity juices do taste good to me in this (again, I normally run hotter so fruits in that environment get burned/chemical tasting) TH: good, of course this all depends on the juice. Battery: I think joye has improved the batteries somehow. Took one off the charger at 4pm, drove to vape meet in York,PA and put it back I charger at midnight. Vaped pretty much entire time and the battery still had life in it. I was not seeing the yellow light. All in all I'd rate my use tonight as high end for me and it lasted. Very good. Tanks: no leaking, uses the standard ego-t tanks. Used both the ones the ego-c came with and type A ego-t tanks I got from a vendor today. Atty: have only used 1 atty and have thrown a bunch of juices at it: thin, thick, light, dark, menthol, non-menthol. Just blow it out, swap tanks (or wash the tank with warm water and refil) and boom, right back at it. In fact, you need not even blow it out if going from one juice flavor to complementary one. First couple of puffs juice flavors combine, but after that, atty delivers flavor from only juice in tank. Obviously, more time will tell but after 24 hrs, quite impressed. I have a couple of LR ego-t tanks I got for comparison, but haven't had the opportunity yet to use them, so I'll update later. One positive of the atty is that I think the design really optimizes juice delivery to it. I mean,it's basically a bridge less atty, the spike has a small bit of wicking in it, but it's really a straight shot from the tank to the atty coil. Someone told me that the ego-c atty is basically a bridge-less 306, and that might be a good way to think of it. Overall impressions: really like it. For me, I need a PV that's small, unobtrusive , holds a 1/2 days (8 to 10 hrs) worth of juice (or swappable carts/tanks) and battery lasts 1/2 day. Like I said, I'm not a fiddler- don't normally want to be messing with bottles of juice, dripping, filling cartos when I'm at work/out and about (basically ill fiddle when im on the couch). This seems to fit all those requirements. Obviously, the ego-c has all of the pluses of the ego-t, the hope is that joye has addressed the minuses. Experience so far says they have. More time with it will tell. Bringing my SB to work has issues, and this looks like an awesome replacement. I love the fact that the attys can be changed and are cheaper than the ego-t attys. seems silly but I have a mental block about having to toss a 10-12 dollar ego-t atty vice tossing a $6 one. I also don't want to have to engage in atty maintenance if I don't want to. Option of tossing a $6 atty is palatable. My hope is that eventually ego-c will be "the" standard ego style tank PV in future, resulting in price drops to 3-4 dollars an atty. that's carto range there. Plus, the ego-c attys should/could last longer: they can be blown, cleaned with alcohol and burned, where cartos are much bigger hassle. So that's it for first impressions. Still need to do a comparison by using ego-t LR atty. at some point, I'll write up a more detailed review, with pics/vids and such, but want to give it 2 weeks of use. I have heard that joye is gonna be releasing a LR ego-c atty a full ego-c launch which is awesome. One concern I have is that I think replacement attys will be hard to come by for a few weeks/months as joye rolls out the ego-c. That kind of sucks, so I'll have to watch ovale and TW sites like a hawk to score some additional attys. My recommendation is this: ovale is offering the ego-c for 69 bucks. My understanding is that end of November this goes up to 129. I also heard joyetech is cracking down on its distributors on pricing, so I'm not sure what will be the real street price once it's widely available. But, 69 is a steal for the kit if you are in the market for an ego tank style or newbie. If the price goes up, or you already have an ego or ego tank style then at least get the cone and the attys to add to your ego/ego-t setup.

So I Started Vaping last year at this time with the "Volcano Magma" at the time I thought it was too big. Then next thing you know I buy an Ego even though in my opinion when I bought it I thought It was huge. But after buying it I thought the Magma was Tiny and not enough. Now there is a break in my story as I went back to analogs for a while (it was a dark part in my life). I got laid off hated myself blah blah blah. Then things got back on track for me last month. I brought out my ego, bought a tank, and started making my own e-juice. Now I want something bigger. I have been looking into the silver bullet, an e-pipemod, a carto pipe or a Volcano Lava Tube. Even though I am not asking for advice on what to get. I was wondering if anyone has ever been satisfied on here with just that original starter set and never felt the need to upgrade? I feel like if I keep heading in this direction eventually I am going to be vaping on something the size of a kitchen sink. Oh and by the way when I did go back to analogs for awhile it was because I literally had no time for the e-cig. Or at least that's what I thought then.

OK it's been a long time coming but I FINALLY built a new mod. I built this after seeing many flaws in the basic VV box mod with a rotating pot. I hated how I would have to add a locking mechanism to it to keep it from turning and also hated how I didn't know the voltage without a multi meter. Well I solved all that plus the flimsiness of those box mods when I came across this box from Polycase. It's kinda beefy but I have really enjoyed it so far. I call it the Super eGo Detonator (as I can not bring this on base on Fort Hood or in an airport cuz it looks like a DETONATOR LMAO) 1st pic is with a mega eGo Dual Coil Carto. LOVE THIS THING 2nd is with the Drip on Demand Kit from MV with eGo cone attached using 510 to eGo adapter from MV... also LOVE IT The blue part of it is a rubber cover. Very nice if I drop it it just bounces. As you can see it has an LED bar on the front. The first two are green (3.7 and 4v), the second two are yellow (4.5 and 5v), and the last two are red (5.5 and 6v). The voltage is changed with a multi position switch on top (will be pictured below) and is very clicky. It wont change voltage unless I want it too. It is seated next to the on off switch and 510 connector. Here is the parts list. I may forget some things... as you will see a LOT went inside this. Polycase Box (Free sample ) TI multi voltage regulator (also free sample ) Multi position pot (had this laying around) On/Off switch (also had this lying around) Clicky Button from MV Resistors, Capacitors, and Wires (had these lying around) 6 LED multi color bar (had this lying around) Circuit boards from MV 510 connector, 510 to eGo adapter and eGo cone from MV OK now under the hood pics (oh baby oh baby) As you can see it is run by 2 14500 trust fire batteries seated in a neat little compartment on the opposite side of the circuitry. I won't bother explaining how I wired this... it took a LONG TIME lol. Just look. Anyways I love it. There are no leaks inside, it is shock absorbent and weather proof, the voltage doesn't change without me doing it and it vapes like a BEAST. Like it?

Sounds strange I know but I don't know how to use it? it came with 5 empty cartridges even though on the website it says comes with 5 pre-filled cartridges so I didn't buy any e-liquid. It's actually the KVS 650 go but it's compatible and the same as the Joye Ego. I've watched videos people drip directly onto the cotton part inside the tank, but the guy from kalamazoo said to drip into the black mouthpiece then stick the tank inside that???? I need an instruction video from the beginning. So many videos on youtube don't actually show you how to get started. So I'd like to know how to use it. Also if you drip only a couple drops at a time how do you know when it's time to re-drip? I hit it with no e-liquid and guess what I got a bunch of vapor even though its empty! but it tasted NASTY must be the primer I vaped.
