Proof that I am still an utter newbie

[horkus1]

Ok so I am using an eGo T pass through and I have a 510 for my backup. Here is my question: I have a pack of joyetech empty cartridges that were bought with a Type A cone atomizer in mind (the vendor was out of the attys at the time) but can these be used with any 510 atomizer as well? When I see the atomizers, they always seemed to be paired with a black cartridge that is round all the way to the tip. The ones I have are pre-punched with a flat mouthpiece (and clear). I would like to try both cone and regular atomizer but I just can't tell if these cartridge will fit and these websites do not specify.

Thanks and sorry for the goofy question.

Hi - yes. A 510 is a thread size, so any 510 will fit on another 510.

ETA: My first kit came with a cone cover, but I always thought of it as just decorative and rarely used it.

 

[horkus1]

Awesome. Thank you, Ocelot!

Proof that I am still an utter newbie

...all I see is success and someone that's asking great questions

I see someone that is entirely too kind. I am a goober but thanks to you guys, no one (well... no one outside of here) would know it.

 

[The Ocelot]

You're not a "goober." How do you think we learned this stuff?

 

[horkus1]

Oh I know. I just find self-deprecation delightfully fun.

Actually, no. It's a matter of size.

If you got a real Type A cone atomizer (some places refer to it as an XL type A) those are significantly larger than a standard atomizer. Further, there is the Type A "cone" that uses the cartridges you have and the Type B "cylinder" atty that requires it's own specific cartridge. The connector is 510 threaded, but these also have the extra set of threading that screws onto an eGo type battery, eliminating the use of a battery cone (cover) in the process.

These two extra large attys are the exceptions. Anything else you see referred to as a "510" almost always refers to a standard size atty - anything but these two particular ones. All other attys will fit to a standard size 510 cart.

Agree with you Rickajho--those Ego cartridges come in WAY too many sizes and no they don't work with any 510 atty. There is Type A, B, C, and each matches a different atty. The attys are all 510 and so will fit a standard ego however the cartridges are a different story altogether.

 

[horkus1]

Oh ok. Well they are definitely Type A. Does that help to figure it out?

 

[Rickajho]

lol - I don't think we meant to confuse you about this.

Iron Molly is referring to tank attys and those do come as type A, B or C . If your cart is clear, has no poly filler inside, and a cap you must pry off in order to fill it then you have a tank setup. Those carts will only work with tank attys.

But you used the word "cone" to describe yours - that isn't tank setup jargon. If you are using a cart that has filler inside it that you drip your liquid onto then you have an "XL type A" cone atomizer. That would not be a tank setup.

No such thing as a dumb question!! Trust me...if so I've asked quite a few of them

I DEFINITELY have the former. So... I am limited to a tank setup with what I have, right?

Good lord. SO sorry guys!

I'm confused. "empty cartridges that were bought with a Type A cone atomizer in mind" would be either just a cartridge filled with some fluffy filler material connected to a mouthpiece or a little tank connected to a mouthpiece if you meant a Type A tank atomizer. Either this or this.

But, "pre-punched" would indicate a cartomizer.

Like I said, I'm confused. Can you give me a link?

Oh, I see! Those are the empty tanks for an eGo-T or an eGo-C atomizer. That's all they're good for as far as I know.

Here a link - Joye eGo Tank Cartridge

I am sorry. I did not mean to cause confusion. I already have cartomizers and those are the ones with the filler. I don't care for them and use my clearomizer almost all the time. I was just wondering if they fit 510 atomizers in addition to fitting the eGo T atomizer. And the answer is no!

Thanks a bunch for helping!

Sorry about that - I miss understood what you had. I thought you were talking about least kinds of cones: ElectronicStix.Com · Original Joye eGo Starter Kit with 510 Atomizers (650 mAh Kit)

never mind the confused old lady

 

[Iron Molly]

horkus1 I have a whole bag full of different Ego "tanks" gathering dust. They just don't cut it for me either. I do have one friend who still uses and likes Ego C's I think I will send the empties her way!

 

[horkus1]

Iron Molly - you should definitely do that! If she likes them, they are worth a lot to her. No doubt it can be expensive to find just the right setup and passing it along keeps it from being cash flushed down the drain.
