Schizophretard Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Thanks for all the tips everybody! My eGo battery, charger, and cones arrived today. I've been using it for over 3 hours, and I love how it doesn't lose power after a while. The regular 510 battery always feels like it's dropping off even after maybe a dozen hits. At first I thought the eGo made it hit harder, then I just realized it was because my battery wasn't halfway to dead after 20 minutes. It feels like Christmas doesn't it?

FTJoe Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 The regular 510 battery always feels like it's dropping off even after maybe a dozen hits. Yeah - there's a term for it that I forget, but almost immediately a 510 will drop off. I used to carry a PCC and flip them around all the time but that will just wear them out. Congrats and GLTY.

YayForBeer Posted August 12, 2010 Author Share Posted August 12, 2010 I can't believe I'm seriously about to buy ANOTHER eGo. I'm spoiled now - lol. Though I do wish it had an LED tip, and it does make the PV quite a bit more bulky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could just buy mega batteries but I want a backup charger and an extra cone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Congrats on the eGo. It is an amazing little device. I switch back and forth between my SB and eGo, so the eGo seems very small to me. LOL But I don't have the mega batteries either. I plan to someday, but not until these batteries are dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twilightbloom Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I agree get you an ego. Janty/Joye/Totally Wicked Tornado is all the same, made by same company and the ego. The best thing is you can use all your 510 accessories and it will fit the ego. I started on the 510 as well and the battery only lasted me an hour. I already lost the cone to my ego, but I don't care. Too much hassle screwing it on and off. The starter kit is best way to go because the ego battery has it's own charger. You could always just buy an ego battery and charger by itself without the kit. Compare the prices to see the most cost efficient way to go. Ego starter kit runs between $65-$75. Some suppliers have free shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are going to love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 But you can buy them for backups. Huh? Backups? Me? LOL Actually, I could retire my old eGo batts as my backups and get the mega batts to use now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitsune Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Nana--I really like the mega. last me the whole day. a bit longer than the regular. I alternate between my one mega and one of my regulars. I now have one regular designated as backup....... got mine from wordup--nice selection on supplies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 If I didn't have so many regular eGo batteries, I'd order a couple of the mega ones in a minute. I figure they will die one of these days and then I'll order the mega. Until then, I'll probably just keep going with these. At the rate I'm going, it will probably be a year from now. I tend to use my SB a lot more than my eGo anymore. I'm not sure, it could be about half and half, but it's making the eGo batteries last a longer, I'm sure. They're all over 6 months old now.
