    Newbie here, have a few questions

    I totally agree with this. I have some leftover Blu cartomizers and they work a lot better on my Ego batteries. When using the Blu carto, sitting them down for a while will help with the burnt taste, the juice gets redistributed through the filler. The pre-filled ones don't last very long...

    recommendations for a quality atomizer?

    I'm new as well and from recommendations on a couple of threads here on ECF, I am currently using a BetterLife dripping atty. Much better than the stock atomizers that came with my Ego starter kit or a few LR attys I tried out. And they are only $5. Eagerly awaiting my Phoenix rebuildable to...

    Newbie here, have a few questions

    I was vaping on Blu until a month ago. My first step up was refilling the Blu cartomizers with ejuice from another vendor. You can find videos on Youtube on how to do this. I wouldn't clean out the old juice, just drip in something that tasted similar, 15-20 drops once you've finished the old...

    ok, I'm biting the bullet here and buying a VV (ego C Twist)

    With the Vision clearomizer, the sleeve is part of the clearomizer, so no need to buy anything additional. Trying to paste a picture below, let's see if it works, still new to the forum. :)

    ok, I'm biting the bullet here and buying a VV (ego C Twist)

    The Vision clearomizers have a collar that screws down on the outside threads, so the threads don't show. I do get a bit of leaking or condensation on the battery tip from time to time, though. They also make collars to cover the outside threads for tanks that screw onto the inside threads of...

    ego

    I bought an Ego kit a few weeks back and it has been a great introduction to vaping. The kit had atomizers and cartridges, so I resorted to dripping and leaky cartridges. With all the hardware that is compatible, I've already moved on to a Stardust and a 3-hole dripping atty. And today I...

    Clearo or Carto?

    I've only used pre-filled cartos, since I am still trying a bunch of different flavors. The cartos are great the first time through, but I don't enjoy the flavor or how I need to continually top off after refilling. I haven't tried boiling them to clean out the previous flavor, it seems like...

    Soooo......those of you with a vision clearomiser..

    I do get a drop or so between the battery and my Stardust from time to time, but I wouldn't call it leaking. Probably just condensation running back down the air vent. A simple wipe with a tissue is all it takes to clean it up. Certainly nothing close to the mess I make trying to drip in the...

    My dentist's assistant told me vaping was no better than smoking cigarettes!!

    When I would go to the dentist for my semi-annual teeth cleaning, I would sometimes get asked afterward if I smoked due to the stains on my teeth. After vaping for a few months, the last time I went in, they complemented me on how well I was taking care of my teeth. Worth the price of my...

    Low res or standard res with Ego Twist?

    I love the low res attys and clearomizers with my current regular Ego battery. To duplicate the vape I ordered lots more, taking the advice from veterans here to always have backups, and then backups to the backups. Then I figured I needed extra batteries, and I ordered the Ego Twist. Should...

    Hello all! New member needs your opinions.

    I did the same as you did, moving from Blu to an Ego starter kit a few weeks back. If you got the kit with the blank cartridges, I found the catrtridges to be worthless, the filling inside doesn't wick very well, so I would get a lot of dry hits. I immediately switched the filler to blue foam...

    How long before you settled on your perfect setup?

    Curious as to how long it took folks to find their perfect setup, or at least the one they are using now. After vaping Blus for several months, I just picked up an Ego starter kit and I am amazed at all the different setups. The cartridges that came with the kit are useless, but the blue foam...

    How did u find vaping?

    I started with a Blu starter kit 7 months ago seeing them at my local Walgreens. I loved the flavors and the convenience of being able to get them at a brick and mortar store. But I was getting tired of the very short battery life. After reading a bit on ECF, I followed the suggestions in the...

    Newb question on direct dripping vs. other methods

    I've been experimenting with my new Ego: cartomizers, atty and carts, and direct dripping. Of these, I prefer the flavor and TH of direct dripping, which makes sense since there's no filler and only the wire mesh in the atty to get get between the coil and the ejuice. My only complaint is...

    Newbie - just graduated from Blu to Ego, time to upgrade again?

    Thanks for the suggestions and lesson. There is so much to learn but the clearomizer sounds like it may be a good option for me, minimal refilling (thus less mess) and no fillers to worry about.

    Newbie - just graduated from Blu to Ego, time to upgrade again?

    I am new to the forum, but have been lurking for a couple of weeks. Based on the advice in the Infozone here, I purchased an Ego starter kit last week after using Blu for the last 7 months and dropping a 20-year 1/2 PAD habit. After a few days of use, I have found I love the battery life of my...
