Ego V V3 Mega has anyone bought one of these?

It looks really good for the money.

Ego V V3

I'm currently using the standard 650 mah ones that came with the starter kit. This looks like a good upgrade.

The only thing I'm worried about is a lot of people say they have had failures with Ego batteries and some of them don't work at all when they turn up.
It's either this, an ego Twist, a Vision Spinner or an itaste V3 and as usual I am faffing about like an idiot trying to make my mind up.

I had one before I upgraded to a vamo. They are brilliant but I would definitely suggest getting the 1200mah version since the VV chip drains batteries faster and the 650 version doesn't last long between charges. I especially liked the .1v increments and the locking function.

Which one is the 1200mah version is that the V2? Was it definitely the V3 you had? They haven't been out long, I can't find a single review of it anywhere.

Sorry you are right it was the V2 I had *facepalm* with the V3 having VW and an ohm checker I would assume it will be even better than the v2

Cheers jordan, I think I'm going to get one of these. It mentions on ivapour that there's a regular V3 and a mega but doesn't say what the differences are.
The one they have for sale doesn't say mega, but the description does. It's kind of confusing. Has anyone used ivapour before are they reputable?

[markm]

Not used them, but they do sponsor Vapourtrails.tv so get a big thumbs up from me.

ivapour have a great reputation - Toby was one of the first UK e-cig vendors.

Cheers Mark and Chrissie, I've definitely buy it from them. I can't find a phone number for them, I want to ask about this regular v mega thing.
There is so little info about the V3 on the net which is really weird, and zero reviews so far.

[Chrissie]

Hmmm, I can't find a phone number for them either - surprised at that.

Just looked at the price mate, and it may be cheaper in the long run to get a vamo or something similar. Entirely up to you ofc but I know I went from the V2 mega to the Vamo in under a month. I'm using mech mods now but still have my trusty vamo for resistance checking on my coils, plus my missus has started using it.

I considered a Vamo but thought it would be too big to take out and about. The V3 is £30 how does the Vamo compare to that in price? The V3 also has resistance checking.
What would you say is the advantage of a Vamo over the V3?

[jordan]

Depending where you get it from a vamo with batteries and a charger can set you back anywhere between £30-60. The vamo also has resistance checking, VW and VV. The main advantage is battery life, you can fit bigger mah batteries in the vamo in 18650 mode, if you want to keep it to a fairly small size then 900mah 18350 batteries still last longer than a 900mah ego battery (at least in my experience they do). Also if the battery dies in a sealed unit like the ego v3, spinner or twist you have to replace the whole unit, in the vamo you just put in a new battery.

Thanks for all the info jordan. I think I'm going to just go and get the V3 it's a bit smaller. Hopefully it won't die on me a few days after I get it lol.
