I need to find out the recommended size and type syringe for filling them. I bought one 510-T atty and one pack of empty 510-T tanks but have not tried them yet.

Actually dormouse, I guess I cheated....I popped the bat end up but not totally off, and filled, no leaks yet and I just filled for the third time.
don't forget to blow out the atty first...mine had lots of primer in it.

I have one and like it - the eGo-t has more capacity so I use that more but for a cig style ecig it's good. No problem with it so far and had it from when it was released. I pop the cap to fill it - it has a strap on the one side the keeps everthing aligned - unlike the eGo-t. Some people were getting leaks on the eGo-t from not putting the cap on correctly. It's a good clean vape. I even like the auto batt that comes with the kit at cignot. - vacuum switch and some new built in protections for it.

Any hot plastic taste? Does condensate still accumulates in an air flow passage?
Thanks.

I've never got juice in the mouth on the 510-t - the baffle is a bit different than the eGo-t and haven't had to mess with it. Because the band on atty is a 'gold band' type the atty can get warm - like a 510 of that style - I prefer w/out the band - except for the ones dietsmoke had a while back - red and white ones but they weren't metal. No plastic taste at all. The initial "plastic" tastes on eGo-ts ended up being burnt ejuice taste at the end of a tank. The plastic is nothing like what you see in some cartos - like the 510 joye carto or others that does heat up. This is a more solid tank - I haven't tried to melt one outside of the ecig yet but I plan on it to see what happens - how it smells, etc.

I started on a regular 510 and it would have been nice having these available. No cart mods, ptb, straw mods, etc. etc. :)

I've had mine for going on two weeks...like it so much I just got two more attys and more tanks. I haven't had a bit of leaking with mine! I pop the cap to fill them...they even re-seat well after breaking off both sides of the connector strip. I do have to use the little screwdriver that you use to tighten the screws on eyeglasses to pop it off (the eGo tank is much easier to pop off).

No, I haven't noticed any hot plastic taste at all. However, be sure you push the tank all the way in. On the first day for the first try, I hadn't pushed it all the way down and was wondering what the heck. I've seen a little bit of condensation int he air flow passage but it's not been a problem.

I'm so pleased with these (other than them being small...they could make them longer to hold more juice) that I barely use my eGos. They even work well on my kr808d-1s (with an adaptor).

It's what I'll recommend to all new vapers and old vapers who are tired of the tediousness of refilling cartomizers and don't want to go with the big tank mods.

OK, reading the comments here I feel like a noob again. I've had leaking problems, and ditched these to my pile of "if I'm desperate for a vape" equipment.
I've used just about every type of carto / tank out there, Boge, Joye, 510, 808, clearomizer (w/syringe), Smoke Tank, Smart carts V2, Mega Smart carts V2, Smoke-Tech Dual coil cartos, GO-GO cartos, (skipped ego tanks, waited for review and maybe V3 or V4 :) )

I like the idea of tanks, able to see how full they are at any time, I'm OK with modding them to work correctly.

Just haven't figured what I'm doing wrong with these.
Over filling? Under filling? Not lined up? Too much power for the atty?

Almost any needle guage will work. Even this tip will work with the eGo & 510-t:

This is from freshsmoking.com and not sure if they sell them explicitly - might have to email first.... 15ml.
