So, I've had this Copper with 6v batteries since May. I had an older eGo before that, but I kept having battery problems, so I wanted to upgrade.
The good: The copper is as heavy as it looks, it just feels solid. It's easy to stand up on a desk or table. You can get a pretty nasty hit from it.
The bad:
The first problem is the trigger. You use your mouth to press down on the mouthpiece to make contact with the batteries. Basically, it just doesn't work. First, I bought metal mouthpieces so it would match the Copper's finish. The thing is, you really have to push the mouthpiece in with your teeth, so with a metal mouthpiece, you're basically mashing metal against your teeth every time you want a hit. I went back to a plastic mouthpiece.
The second problem is...the trigger again. Unless you REALLY unscrew the top, it is super easy for the trigger to go off. You CANNOT put it in your pocket. The first time I did, two minutes later, there is a white hot heat on my thigh, smoke coming out of my pockets, and a melted atomizer and mouthpiece. It's done this sitting in my car's console as well. It leans against something the wrong way, and your atomizer is toast.
The third problem is the juice tends to run down into the battery casing, and corrodes your batteries. Mine still work, but they look like they've been soaking in acid.
Anyways, I'll probably be getting a riva or ego-t next time, just thought I'd warn you.
