soso Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 The predictions offered by my new forum friends sure didn't take too long to come true. While I'm still very pleased with my stock 510 setup, I've found that I'm now swapping batteries several times a day, and for longer, vape-heavy periods where I'm away from home (like band practice) I can burn through both fully-charged batteries before the end of the night, leaving me high & dry. A very sad state, indeed. Saturday afternoon, I ordered an eGo setup from Forever Vapor. I'm getting the eGo USB PT battery, the eGo LR atty, and (since I've changed to direct-dripping exclusively now) that snazzy little stainless 510-shaped drip tip. I flirted with the idea of the eGo MEGA battery, but since I do a lot of vaping in front of a computer and didn't want to buy another wall-charger for the eGo, I went with the PT instead. I also thought about going to a tank system, but I've read here that dripping is the best way when using a LR atty... Besides, the metal drip tip looks cool. I'm pretty excited about the extra vapor production I expect to see from the bigger battery and LR setup. I figured one LR atty was safe to start with to see if I like it as much as I think I will, and should it die on me, I can still swap in one of my perfectly-functioning 510 attys until I can replace the LR one. Just thought I'd share with you folks that I succumbed to the temptation of upgraded gear even sooner than expected. Oh yeah, and I ordered a bottle of 24mg Clove juice in addition to stocking up on my preferred 555. I really appreciate all the info and support to be found on this forum.

Morfeeus Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Congrats on stepping up to the eGo like so many of us have. You may also want to try the newer Smoketech dual coil cartos. I started off as a dripper. Went to the MAP tanks along with the eGo-T tanks and then just found my vaping bliss with these new cartos. They hold lots of joose, produce mad vapor, and taste about as close to dripping as I think is possible without actually dripping. I would advise you to not use them on your reg 510 batts but they're fine for the eGo batts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fran1959 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Good for you on your upgrade. You might find you still use your 510's as a backup, never hurts to have extras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beans Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Looking at your counter, it's very expected lol. I ditched Green smoke in the first 2 weeks. I think many people who didn't start with the eGo did the same. Yeah, start saving your pennies now! I see a new MOD in your near future. You will LOVE your new PV!

soso Posted May 16, 2011 Author Share Posted May 16, 2011 (edited) My counter seems to be busted, actually. I've been vaping for over two weeks now, but the counter still says 3 days? Maybe I hinked up the code when I copied it into my sig... iDunno. I'll mess with it when I get home. I don't know if I'd want to go to a carto.. It seems like they're harder to fill and somewhat more "disposable" than normal attys? Am I wrong in this assumption? I also didn't see anything like that in the VT store or Forever Vapor. Can someone provide a link to a reputable place to investigate these? Thanks! PS - and yes, I don't see my 510s going anywhere. They'll stay with me as backups should anything ever go wrong with the eGo PT / LR setup. Edited May 16, 2011 by soso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Your counter shows 17 days for me. Try pressing the F5 button to clear our your cache Ad cartos are awesome. It's all I use, we sell them but we're out of stock. Our buddy Luke sells the same cartomizers I recommend: http://vaporgalaxy.com/Boge-510-Removable-Soft-Tip-Cartomizers-510CARTO.htm Tell em' Chris sent you (He's a good guy, he'll get you all taken care of) Infamy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soso Posted May 16, 2011 Author Share Posted May 16, 2011 Cool - thanks. I'll make sure to go that way when I'm ready to try a carto. And my sig is appearing correctly now. Not sure why is was weird before - had to be a browser cache thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snubber Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Well congrats on going with the eGo...it's a real workhorse. The pt feature is great for around the house and in the car too. I think you're going to love it. Good luck and happy vaping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saabdrifter Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Same here, eGo is great. I have been on LR and HV cartos for about 3 weeks. I love them! I have only vaped on attys when trying some new juice. Since I have narrowed my search for an all day vape, I have been stuck on cartos. As far as them being disposable, I have only tossed one and that was a HV one I used at 6v. Since I started using cartos, I have been able to leave my "kit" at home. I used to carry alot of crap around with me. Now I can go out with one mod and a 900mah eGo and 2 extra loaded cartos. Its been a great system so far.

soso Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 Any advantage of going with a carto vs. the ego LR tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheriepye Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) I don't know if this is ok or not, but you asked for info about different cartos. This is the one I use. I really like it but I love the people on this board. They know I vape a different brand and they took me in as one of their own. I always have a place to get honest answers. Oh yeah, and a great laugh from Beans. Cherie Premium Edited May 19, 2011 by Cheriepye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I correct in understanding these dual coil cargos can be used with either the regular or mega eGo batteries? Are they really much better than LR cartos?

Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk yes and yes they are great they do take about 60 drops of ejuice so.. you may want to use a syringe to fill witch is about 1.8 mil ..you do not have too. you can still use the condom method.however i find using a syringe really gets the coils well i also find once you prefill you just have to top off every so offen . i like them a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SABOTEUR Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Thanks, lovie. Gonna place an order right away! Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SABOTEUR Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Ok...just ordered 10 dual coils and 1 1100 mAh eGo battery, but the website advises that dual coils could possibly damage the battery switch. I decided it was worth the risk, but I'm wondering now whether anyone has experienced this problem. Anyone?

soso Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 For the record, I went with the 510-T system over the cartos. It might not vape as well, but I feel like there's less waste and I'm really just totally over using that filler material for anything. I'm puffing on my eGo PT right now.. This thing is amazing. Vapes great all day long. Charges at night. PT in front of the PC (like now). Brilliant product! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icingdeth Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Grats man, I have plenty of mod's (modders fever) and still go back to dripping on LR atty's in my ego all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
