I have four TW Tornados (the TW name for the original JOYE eGo) and two Rivas (eGo clones) - they appear to perform equally well and using the TW 'mega' charger take only two hours max to charge. All my Tornadoes and one Riva are many months old and still perform as well as when I bought them. I've recently started using the mega cartomizers with them and they're magic. Fox

Using the standard 510 charger my Tornado batteries take an age to charge. It should be remembered NOT to use the 'mega' charger with standard batteries though. As both types of usb charger look so similar, I mark the megas with nail polish!! Fox

Bucko & Pixie have both said their's take 5 -6 hrs Ken, so i presume they don't mean with the faster? usb charger....
but i don't have the usb charger either, and mine defo take nowhere near that length of time, thats why i noticed a big difference with the Slim Jym batteries, they do take loads longer

My ECO/SlimJym style batteries take ages with my mega charger too Lilac. Perhaps the charger adapter dilutes the current? (I know nothing about electronics as you can tell ) Fox
