    I need help with vg juice lack of flavor!!!

    Sounds to me like you may be vaping faster than the VG can wick. VG juices are usally thicker than PG juices and so wick slower. You could try waiting a bit longer in between vapes to give the VG more time to wick to the coil or you can slightly dilute the VG with distilled water or PGA so it...

    Getting flavor out of e-cigarette

    I'm a researcher who has seen firsthand what lead exposure can do to workers in the battery industry as well as their children, so, yeah, I totally lost my sense of humor when I read your "advice." Lead does a lot more than just "stunt your growth," it is a potent neurotoxin that causes...

    Getting flavor out of e-cigarette

    Uh, I most definitely wouldn't use anything with lead in it to swirl the atty around in the VG, lead is a neurotoxin at very low levels and VG being a solvent could very well pick up lead from the pencil and deposit it on the atty wick and coil. I would use a toothpick, spoon or something else

    Ego 510-t leakage

    I got 20 of the silicone soft caps when I bought my first eGo-C type A tank setup only to learn that I actually prefer the hard caps that come with the tanks. :) The hard caps seal just fine, don't get stained by darker juices like the silicone caps do, and although they can take a bit of...

    Joyetech eGo-C w/ LR atomizers

    Nice review, thanks! I cut a large rubber band into 1" long strips to help with unscrewing the cone and base when they're screwed together a bit too tight. I ordered something like 20 of the silicone caps when I bought my first eGo-C because of the complaints I had read about them leaking...

    Which one to pick?

    The eGo-C is actually less money over the long run because only the atomizer head (about $5) is replaced not the whole cone assembly (usually $12-13). I really like the eGo-C. If you want to stick with Smokeless Image, as r77r7r noted above, they now have eGo batteries with 808 threads (Volt...

    Quick question about tanks

    Cignot has eGo-C type A and type B starter kits for $20 that will let you try out the new eGo-C tank system for not too much money. I really like the eGo-C tank system, it's a significant improvement over the old cartridge system. As for what to do with the mega atomizers, I've used them as...

    Quick question about tanks

    No, the tanks will not work with the mega atomizers. To use the type B tanks that you linked to, you would need either a type B standard resistance (SR) atomizer or type B low resistance (LR) atomizer.

    What would you suggest for improving an eGo-T setup?

    Obviously you have very strong opinions about the eGo-C and eGo-T but expressing them with such inflammatory language quite frankly just makes you come across as rather unhinged and so only undercuts your argument. Imagine, too, what a totally useless shouting match this forum would quickly...

    What would you suggest for improving an eGo-T setup?

    Well, I've been using those "awful little plastic tanks" for several months and love them - no leaking, no burnt or dry hits, the caps easily pop off with a dental pick, small screwdriver, straightened out end of a large paperclip, or similar, the draw seems just right to me, and I get clouds of...

    eGo and Accessories carrying options

    I just use the basic e-cig case that a lot of places carry. I've seen it in small, medium and large sizes, mine (from the link) seems to be the medium size. It can hold two 1000 mah batteries and a spare eGo-C atty assembly, plus 5 type A tanks. It is very sturdy and has been holding up very...

    New Ovale eGo-C changeble system.

    You've probably already thought of this but I will add that after I burn the gunk off the wick, I gently fluff it up with a toothpick and rinse the ash off it, then gently pat it dry with a paper towel or napkin and fluff it up again, and then prime it by dripping 2-3 drops of juice onto the...

    How do you maximize your flavor?

    I vape Ecopure for a while when a juice gets tasteless. I smoked for 45 years before I finally quit a little over 2 months ago, so my taste buds were really fried. For the first month or so every juice I tried (even clove and cinnamon) tasted pretty much like corn oil after the first few vapes...

    Proud new owner of an eGO-C

    I just ordered a pack of Boge 510 LR cartomizers. They seem to be pretty popular so I thought I'd give them a try. I suspect they'll be warmer than the tanks. I also ordered a 306 atty and drip tip for dripping. The 306 attys also seem to be well-regarded and will work on the eGo's 510 threads...

    Proud new owner of an eGO-C

    If you mean the tanks, the eGo-C type A tanks are the same as the eGo-T type A tanks (see, e.g., Cignot's eGo-C product page).

    New Ovale eGo-C changeble system.

    The wick is made of silica and doesn't burn, what happens is that it just gets really gunked up. You can hold it over a stove burner with long tweezers, needle-nosed pliers or similar and burn off the burned on gunk until the wick is all nice and white again. When you do that you'll see a red...
