    There's a Joytech fully adjustable regulated VV ego battery on the way. Ego batteries are all i carry around, out and about. A VV version would be cool...3.2V - 4.8V...

    The fact that this thing delivers under load is insanely cool.

    pretty cool

    i wonder what the battery life is at 4.8v though... i'd imagine sfa but still.. handier than a lavatube for a night out

    Yep, saw this on the Joyetech website a couple weeks ago....

    650mAh @ 4.8v....definately a night out device, but still cool! :)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    yeah id imagine it's a 650mah, the other variable volt ego form battery is the same sizwe as a 1100mah but is only 650. all that added circuitry has to go somewhere

    Looks very promising, a shop in Germany was selling the 900 mAh for €30. Looks like there will be a 1000 mAh one too.
    Probably only a couple of euro in the difference between them when they are widely available.

    I think my eGo VV is 1000mAh. It's bigger than my 1000mAh eGo's alright.


  • Registered Users Posts: 813 ✭✭✭mrplop


    This is basically the same as the Ego or Tornado booster which retails for about €55.
    This has a better voltage range so €30 is a good deal as far as I'm concerned - will buy a couple of these when they're available.

    4.8 volts is certainly good enough for most things.

    yeah 4.8 seems to be sweet enough...i rarely go over 4.5 volts on the Lavatube to be honest! :)

    Lads would anyone give these a go for €30 for 1000mah?

    for 30euro it's be worth a punt!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    yeah I'd pick one up too, be handy to have a variable voltage backup for my variable voltage backup and if they work well they'd be a good starter point for people interested in VV


  • Registered Users Posts: 122 ✭✭dublinscot


    Anyone know when these are due to be released?


  • Registered Users Posts: 844 ✭✭✭wingnut32


    Early to mid May


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,711 ✭✭✭Gryzor


    Got a notification from heavens gifts that they had em in stock, can't find them on the site though. Maybe someone who's not as blind as me can???

    Edit: http://www.heaven-gifts.com/article-369.html


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 3,708 Mod ✭✭✭✭eeloe


    It's saying that it will be for sale from the second...I think.

    Really looking forward to trying it!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,102 ✭✭✭derra


    Looks like it be around €20 delivered from Heavens Gifts for the 650 twist.

    review here
    ****ing thing is as big as a 1100mah and it's only 650mah

    christ, imagine how big the 1000mah will be


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    someone over on ukvapers put up a review of theirs

    said he got around 9 hours vape from the 650mah at 3.8v, that's pretty great

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    one of the irish sites sells them
    bargain vapour maybe?

    I had one before, and someone else here got one. they're decent batteries, worth having tbh althoughu they are unregulated iirc. so you start off on the higher setting of 4.2v, but as the battery drains the voltage drops.
    the ego-c twist is regulated im pretty sure but it'll also be more expensive.

    both are decent enough batteries to get a quick feel for variable voltage vaping


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,305 ✭✭✭Green Hornet


    Yeah, I bought one of the eGo-VV 1100mAh batteries from Bestecig.ie.

    Works pretty well and lasts quite a long time alright but it's a bit too big lengthwise for me. Also has all these LED's that I dont like either - like a flippin Christmas tree.

    As Sir Digby says though, it did give me an experience with VV for < 20 Euros.

    keep a note of how long it lasts you at various voltages :)

    650, hopefully it'll have a reasonable battery life up towards the 4V mark..
