Get rid of the tanks and buy some cartos for your eGo! Dual Coils work very well with these and I'm very fond of the DCC Liquinator tank. It holds 3mls (or more if you get the larger tank), it's easy to use and provides a consistent vape every time!

Don't go back to smoking! Don't you let it win! You've already got a great battery. It just needs better hardware!

Your eGo 510 will take cartomizers. They don't leak. In case you're just sick of it, here are a couple suggestions:

510 kit that looks like a cig. Comes with cartomizers. You can get the pre-filled ones w/ tobacco flavors for 50 cents more or buy juice and fill your own. $27. They have manual or auto. Strongly suggest the manual for a better hit. If you decide to move up to a Fat Batt KGO/eGo style, the supplies from that 510 kit will fit it. Might check out the KGO also. First video on left on homepage does a good job.

Hang in there. It's worth it. Good luck.

Been there, brother! Buy 510 cartomizers...they'll fit the batteries you already have...agree with the other person that said tanks were hit or miss...I gave up on them a long, long time ago. Since you're (fairly) new and don't need the headaches, stay away from the CE2/Clearomizer garbage, too.

The batteries/charger you have is fine, so you don't have to start over with a new kit.

Stick with regular cartomizers in the beginning, drip 20-25 drops into them, and you're good to go. Once you have that system working for you (and eliminate the headaches of malfunctioning equipment), THEN you can try other things if you choose.

The LadyO'Heart speaketh the truth! There is no reason to put up with with "Inconsistent Vapor / Flavor. Constant Leaking."

Hi
Try not to let this little setback get the best of you. You have one of the best fat type battery setups around. When you find the right cart/carto/tank and a juice or 2 you like you'll be home free. I've tried just about everything that will screw onto an eGo battery and, other than dripping with a LR atty the Boge LR cartomizers seem to work the best (for me).
Crystal Clear sells 15 for $20, free shipping, free drip tip, free syringe.
PM me an address and I'll mail you one to try out.
Don't give up

I'm in the same boat man. I have purchased my collection from Totally Wicked. I have 2 Tornado batteries, 1 mega Tornado battery and 5 Titan batteries. I gave up on the tanks because of leakage and lack of flavor, I've tried clearomizers/Smokymizers, and smoktech dual coil carto's. The clearomizers kept cracking and leaking and just tasted bad all around. The dual coil carto's were great on the initial fill but any refills afterwards they failed to perform. I just purchased 15 smokymizers and the first was a dud, the second constantly taste burnt and I cant seem to manage the tiny little plug without dropping or losing it. I haven't smoked in almost 3 months but I am out of idea's. I wanted to stick with things that would fit a 510 connection because I have so many 510 batteries but I am frustrated with everything I have tried. I don't mind spending the money on an entirely new device, but I have no idea what will meet my needs. All I know is that I haven't smoked in nearly 3 months but I am not spending any more money on Clearomizers, smokymizers, nor dual coils even though I have had the best luck with the dual coils. I am a heavy vaper and I like to chain vape. I dont care what it cost but I have got to find something that works for me soon or I'll probably end up smoking again. If I have to pay top dollar for a hi-end device, fine. I just want a reliable, consistent device that doesn't leave me frustrated and aggravated with all the maintenance, upkeep, and leakage. I don't wanna bother with syringes nor the tiny little plug on the smokymizers. Somebody please suggest to me a device that I can chainvape on with minimal leakage and minimal upkeep and preferably no syringe needed.

If you want something that is low maintenance and no fuss. Than I would highly suggest that you get a REO (grand or mini). You don't have to carry anything around and is VERY low maintenance. It will last you all day long and the best part of it. Is that it's made out of aircraft aluminum. Which means that you can drop it on the floor or in a bucket of water and STILL be able to use it.

You can also use cartos on there which will make it even easier. IMO it's the lazy person's best friend in vaping. If your interested than here's some links:

Don't give up. I've tried the eGo-T tanks and they were inconsistent. Since you already have a good battery, try some cartomizers. The Boge 2.0-2.5 ohm work pretty well on an eGo. Same for the Dual Coil cartos. CE2's work great if you're willing to mod them somewhat. All of these, combined with your favorite juice are pretty low maintenance (maybe except for the CE2's),

If I buy a Reo Grand do I need to buy the batteries, charger and cartomizers seperate? What comes with the setup and what would you recommend for superior vapage?

Edit ---
Nvrmind, I just saw on the site that batteries and chargers are seperate. No biggie tho I can deal with that : )

If you try Boge 510 cartos then I recommend a 510 delrin or plastic drip tip instead of the end cap. That will bring the vapor into your mouth in a wider less concentrated stream, and you may also hold that a bit further in your mouth, bringing the vapor in past where you get sores.

And clean your cartos up well after filling because one thing that can cause a blister is if loose hot juice sputters and shoots a hot drop into your mouth.

I have tanks and cartos and i like both. Low resistance on the tank attys is all i will do and the cartos are nice once you figure out what works best for you. Money spent on finding a great setup is way better than money going up in smoke

I agree! Money is no issue really, just wanting something consistent. It's worth the money, frustration, and trial and error if I can get off smokes and stay off of em' too.

if you want simple and more flavor and hit try an 808...you cant go wrong. Bloogs got me off analogs afte 25 years. I have since tried Egos and others,w tanks, attys, LR, Boge cartos, CE2s etc etc etc and I get more satisfaction, vapor, and flavor from my 808s by far. Simpler, more power, and their horizontal coil cartos do not burn and work for ages! Bloog offers a money back (30 days I believe) if it doesnt work for you...so what do you have to loose?

Whatever you do, dont go back to analogs...like a previous poster said, you just gotta find the right setup and juice and you will be home free!
