    I started vaping, because...

    I like shiny new gadgets, a lot. And the carnival of flavors does enhance the whole experience. I never really intended to quit cigarettes altogether. E-cigs were just supposed to be a substitute for when the "real thing" was inconvenient. I just wanted to have my family and my cigarettes...

    Is This The Coolest Forum Or What?

    Sometimes egos can get the better of a few, but ECF is like an extended family. And for the overwhelming majority of us here, our desire to help, learn and teach out weighs our basic human pettiness. I'm rather proud of this Family we have here. I know for a fact that without my brothers and...

    VaperCon- October 2011

    I live in Richmond and work in NOVA/DC. I do the drive every day, and folks, it ain't all that far. The worst part of the drive is the :evil:traffic:evil: in Northern Virginia. I-95 becomes a linear parking lot from all the volume. As a general rule, from the Beltway to Dumfries in the...

    Vendors I have not tried...

    In no particular order, and by no means exhaustive: MadVapes, just got my first order, It will not be my last. Surprise! He's not Just for Modders! His site is chock-full of Vaping Goodness. Great product, fast shipping, very good pricing. VaporHeads is a regular fav, with outstanding...

    Vendors that are not listed on ECF

    I've stumbled across a few and checked them out, out of curiosity. In the interest of safety and good taste I will not grant them advertisement by naming them here. Now, I'm not saying this applies to ALL vendors not associated with ECF, but in my experience those who aren't on this forum...

    Would you buy an E-Cigarette from the "Big Tobacco" companies?

    Today, as an experienced vaper, No Way! I prefer my money going to support small vendors, and when possible, LOCAL* vendors. Back when I first started though, if there had been a genuine RJR E-Camel on the market, I think I would have bought it. If Big Tobacco did start producing PV versions I...

    My wife asked her work and recieved this reply

    I didn't realize until reading all the previous comments just how lucky I am to be working for people who 'get it'. We're primarily a high-end Audiovisual and Systems Integration company, and therefore are staffed by people who are more likely to be accepting of, if not enthralled with, "shiny...

    Dark e-liquids for e-go-t?

    After the first two or three weeks, I got tired of having to clean my atty every other day. Otherwise they would clog up. So I've transitioned to light and/or clear juices only for the Tanks. I save my darker juices for dripping in my Mega. I agree with WDAVE, the Tank atties seem to chugga...

    eGo-Tank Type B 2mL

    Just remember, you will need to have a Type B tank atomizer in order to use your type B tanks. Type A = cone Type B= cylinder

    Do you have a lanyard? Let us see it!

    Will post pix of mine, when I get some batts for my camera. Made it out of some nylon sleeving and a velcro strap I had laying around. Dead stupid simple to make, and it's somewhat adjustable for different batt and atty combos. Basically invert the tube to form a pouch of suitable depth, fold...

    Let the Confusion begin!!! Ego-T Type A (original) and Type B (bigger I guess)

    The way I am led to understand it, when using any eGo device: Type A refers to the "cone style" atomizer and Type B refers to the "cylinder style" or "mega" atomizer; regardless of whether you are using Tanks, Cartridges, or Cartomizers.

    N-Joy NPRO e-cig??

    I think it's a decent introduction to the world of e-cigs. Not a bad place to start, but she will probably out grow it or tire of it soon. My first e-cig was an RN4081. Battery life leaves much to be desired, I used to carry no less than 4 in order to make it through the day (that was back...

    Cleaning an Ego-T atty?

    I agree with you on the dark juices, but I've been using mostly clear, 100% VG juices since I got this thing and haven't had any problems. All with the same atty. But I have been cleaning mine about every 4 days with a syringe. I use an old hollow plug from one of my leftover 4081 cartridges...

    Ego not cutting it

    I've been using my eGo-T exclusively for a month now. I guess I'm just lucky. I love this thing and have had no problems with burning or poor flavor/vapor either. Prior to getting the tank I direct dripped on a Mega atty, and before that my primary was a DSE601 Pipe on which I also dripped...

    When rating how well a product works, why dont we use Boge 510 cartos as a known ref?

    :2c: It is very hard to objectively quantify subjective experience. And even with the same equipment people will often get very different results. My eGo-T is still GREAT after almost a month with the same atty vaping 3mls a day and having none of the problems I've heard others complain...

    What's in your E-Cig daily bag...

    I'm with you. The eGo-T has greatly simplified my whole vaping experience. No more tacklebox for me! No more paper clips,tweezers, fistfuls of batteries, bottles, needles, ad nausea um. All I need now is my eGo-T equipped with the 1000mah battery and a small felt-lined spring-closure box (the...

    PCCs and the 510 and eGo Tank

    I have an eGo with a 1000mah mega battery and so far I haven't seen a need for a PCC. Vaping with the tank has been hands down the BEST vaping experience I've ever known. Congratulations, IMHO you have chosen very well. I wish these things had been on the market back when I first started. I...

    Problem with new ego-t carts

    Usually you'll hear a gurgling, slurping sound when you inhale if you have a flooded atty. I have yet to truly "flood" this type of atty. If it is flooding, that means too much liquid is getting to the atty too soon. My guess would be your tank is not sealed properly. Make sure the cap on...
