If someone who is considering purchasing the Ego saw what Mik wrote and expected similar results, I believe they would be very disappointed once making the purchase due to exaggerated high expectations. The Ego already sounds impressive with its up-to-12hrs battery performance.
Yes. If they read my post and if I said : buy this you WILL get X amount out of it, then I do understand this whole fuss. The problem is I did not.
I said, that I get X amount out of it, and that I consider myself a moderate to heavy vaper ( one or the other, in different posts ) -
and I also said that I encourage people to check with others on the boards to get their opinions on it, as mine are based on my usage..
So - thats why I find this whole mess rather inappropriate. I dont mind people experimenting, or dissecting stuff. I dont mind the theory, or the numbers.
But I think the biggest point of them all, that I tried to make, is lost;
I, consider myself a heavy vaper- among the people I come in contact with on a daily basis. This is a _fact_ based on the people I know, and the people I talk to. This means nothing else, than in that "group", vaping somewhere between 2-3mls a day, is heavy. And for those people, one battery will last from you wake up, till the next day, when you wake up. Please re-read that.
I have stated, that I for instance pick up my ego batt at 16:00, and then I have to recharge it at sometimes 12, sometimes 14, sometimes 15 the next day. With 8 hours of sleep, and say 4 hours to do stuff where I could not possibly vape, that I get approx 12 hours out of it.
That is not as far off, as you are making it sound like.
But in any regard, even though I still think its fine to try and figure out the numbers, I dont get why we have to put these labels on people? I know people who used to smoke 40 analogues a day - but they didnt inhale nearly as much as I did with my 20+.
I mean if you vape on cartomizers - or filters with filling material, you might use more of your battery in getting what is satisfying to you, than someone who direct drips, or uses a third method. Again - variables.
Variables are a ..... - and as such the common grounds must be the only measurement. In the groups of people I hang out in - and talk to, 2-3ml a day is considered "heavy".
In the groups you hang out in, it might mean 3-4. Or more.
Again - variables - and neither of us is right;
Which again, is why I never promised anyone anything, but stated to them that this is based on _my_ experience, and that they should ask other users and browse around for more feedback..
Argrhrhr.....
Anyways, - im done with this, just thought it clarify it one last time, as I do think its important for any newcomers that reads this, to get both our point of views in one thread - preferably without the mud.
Have a nice sunday!
