Aspire ET Appreciation Thread

[BCRich2204]

I bought one last Wednesday & have been using it exclusively since. It's very well built, no leaks, has a "heavy" quality about it.

Right away I noticed a difference in the quality of the vapor. Very thick, creamy, smooth. I've had maybe four different flavors in there & it just keeps on keep'n on. I liked it so much, that I just bought another one.

I haven't seen many threads about these babies, so I figured I'd start one.

I'm one of those cheap bastads that only started vaping to get a fix. The CE4s & CE5s that I started with were working fine & I felt no real need to upgrade. I visited a "vaping" store & the salesperson was really persuasive about this tank. All I can say is wow, big difference.

I also have a Kanger Pro 3 on order, so we'll see how that turns out.

Oh yeah, I meant to ask.... with my CE4s & CE5s, after three or four days, the vape changes, I believe it's because of all the gunk that builds up on the coil. I clean them & dry burn them & they're good for another three or four days.

Have you ever had to clean & dry burn the Aspire BDC coils? The one I bought came with two replacement coils & I see replacement coils for sell all over the net.... not too expensive, but if I don't have to spend money, I'd rather not.

The Aspire ET is one of the first Aspire BCD's I tried when Smokeless Image started carrying them. Still one of my favorite. Great flavor and vapor ans 3ml capacity. I just ordered 4 of the eGo Aspire ET-S glassomizers. Same quality vape and flavor. I typically would get 3-4 weeks out of one head when using the same juice. Then I give them a soak and reuse. I never dry burn these. I have heard it can cause damage. But I don't dry burn any of my heads anyway. Tried it once and didn't have good luck.

The one thing I do not like about the ET is even though it is a 3ml capacity it doesn't like to go below 1/3 full. If you go that low something about the pressure and vacuum will case it to gurgle and leak a few drops. If this happens take off the base and clean it off as well as any juice around the silicone. Top it off and it is as good as new. Even with that it is still one of my favorite clearos. And now that they are available in glass I can finally try some tank cracker juices.

I have a covey of ET-S and a herd of the other Aspires. Read my blogs on tips for using them and to recoil with single coils.

BTW the 3ml vivi nova S version doesn't seem to suffer from the vacuum problem. I sucked one down below the coil cap in the window today.

I noticed I can do the same with the regular Vivi Nova BDC version too. Drained it almost to the bottom with no gurgling.

I had to order another one as my wife got my silver one and won't give it back. I poured some juice out of a ET-S into a mini nova S and found out it holds less as the juice ran down the tube into my hand. Lucky I was over the sink instead of my lap.

BTW I think the mini is supposed to be 2 or 2.5 ml and the regular 3. What say u?

Mini Nova: 2ml
ET: 3ml
Vivi Nova: 3.5ml

Thanks that explains my mess. The tanks are the same from the ET to the mini so I thought they would hold the same, dooh!

Still amazed with this thing. I know I'm a newbie & maybe I should be expecting this from my clearos, or tanks, or whatever I'm supposed to call them, but I've been using this thing exclusively for over a week now & it's still performing like it did on the very first drag. Not a hint of burnt coil.

the gurgling at 1/4 full does get annoying, but still...... very, very impressed.

My second favorite clearo ever next to the Kanger T2. So you could say this is my favorite bc and the T2 my favorite top coil. I'm just used to having to fill the ET a little sooner than others. The only aggrivating this is it basically is a 2ml since you can't really use the last 1ml or so without gurgling.

Had to open my big mouth.

Just before I left work, I noticed my vapes getting weak... I just wasn't feeling it. I had just refilled, so I thought it was the juice. When I got home, my spare tank (Aspire BDC ET-S) was in the mail. I thought about firing it up, but I wanted to see how far I could go on the first one. So I dumped what I thought was bad juice & refilled it with another bottle.

It was still weak. I decided to change the coil........ & BAMMO-WHAMMO-KAPOW... big flavor shot. Seems that in that weeks time of vaping on that tank, the flavor's been dying slowly & I hadn't noticed.

I'm in love, all over again.
