definately interested in trying these out since the ego tank was absolute fail.

Well I got my two. They have potential, but need some modding. I know that's a pain in the ...., but once I get them going, they do work fairly well. I took a lighter to a knife tip and melted the holes that allow the juice to come through to the filler so that they were bigger, I use mostly VG liquid and this helped a lot. I think blue foam is going to be a better choice than the poly, so that's next on my list of modifications. I've used them on an eGo with LR atty and at 5v with standard atty...I'm getting pretty much the same results with both, which is the occasional dry hit and waiting for it to wick again. I suggest not filling them totally full, allowing room for air bubbles to come up as it wicks. I've had no leaking at all. So pretty much...it's just a cartridge and like all of them, they need a bit of modding to get them wicking fast enough to chain vape. Being able to see the juice rocks. Oh, and the draw is a bit light on these. That's all I got for now. 
Bianca, How about another update you have had them for awhile. Did you do anything else to them and how are they working out? I am still waiting for mine. Also gotvapes has smart carts (version 2) and they said the problems with them are fixed, you might want to take a look they are low cost.
I actually had better luck with the wicking with blue foam, but I did get a bit of juice coming up the air chamber. It gurgled a bit to warn me. I pulled it off, blew the juice down, wiped it off and put in a bit thicker piece of blue foam... that worked, though not perfect as every once in a while, you will get a dry hit. It's still a bit more work than I really want to deal with and I've gone back to cartomizers. I'll give the new smart carts a go and see how they're doing...if they've removed the glue from that bridge piece that is...I'm not mixing glue and e-liquid, no way.
It does kinda wick, but if you take several draws in a row (like I always do) and don't let it rest a bit you will for sure get the dry hit...and it takes a while for it suck the juice back down to the atomizer. The blue foam just allowed it to wick faster, although, again, you will get a dry hit once in a while if you chain vape it, just not as often.
I never read about a version 2 of these things. How are they different? I'm one of the ones that version 1 reallllly didn't work for.
According to gotvapes.com site, the version 2 increases the modability by allowing easy removal of existing filler without breaking the bridge; easier out-of-the-box fit into all 510 atomizers; improved filler density for optimal automatic juice application to the atomizer.
Would love to try them, too. Please keep posting your opinions.
Thanks for the info...not sure if I'll be trying v2 though. I'd like to read reviews too, anyway.
I have used Fluxomizers, got vapes smart carts and the ego tank, as far as vapor is concerned, the smart carts are best, fluxos are kind of light in the vapor dept i was using 3.0s, and i dont like the ego tank, tooooo hard to puff on, but the ego mega atty and mega cart kicks ...., massive vapor, taste and holds around 2 ml, stopped counting at 30 drops refilling a mega cart, the smart cart is the same principal as the tank but very nice draw, i gotta say i did not care for the fluxomizers, light airy draw, decent flavor, but very light vapor, also the tube is not affixed to the base, if you bend it slightly u have juice all over you as it comes off the base...any que pls pm me....forgot to mention none of the 3 above leaked in any way, to be fair i tend to use a lot of vg in my juice....also the wicking material in the smart carts is a little dense, difficult wicking, i replaced it with the blue marineland material and they do great....

If you like the smart carts, you will love the 510 clear tank carts @ breezesmokes. They hold more fluid and snap on and off the 510 atty better, than the smart carts that I have. They have a neat little snap off end with the filler material in it, so you just pop it off and fill from your bottle or you can use a syringe. They are great to do business with I have order 3 times from them and they have a phone number if you have questions, unlike alot of the sellers.
I just got in my first pair today. Unless I can figure out that I'm doing something terribly wrong, total disappointment.
First tried with the included polyfil. Did not full load in case of failure, didn't want to waste too much juice. Took a drag or two, all seemed well. Set the eGo-type down on its battery end for a couple minutes and came back to a juicy mess and a virtually empty tank cart.
Then, I tried replacing the polyfill with blue foam. Same results. Tank empties itself in a few minutes, making a mess of my PV.

Got some mini 510 tanks, and tried using them on LR 510 aty on my ego batt w/ cone over the whole thing...having a lot of trouble getting them to wick juice into the aty. The burnt dry aty taste is awful. I followed instructions, but maybe it's user error? Going to try the blue foam mod...hopefully that will work better, but if not, just going to go back to the regular ego mega cartridge.
Anyone else know of a way to make these work...in theory, it would save a lot of time not having to drip onto the LR aty!
