I am cleaning some of my other stock coils in vodka right now, hoping to get some more mileage out of them. It got me thinking if I could improve upon all those strange tasting CL coils you get when you buy a tank. I'm going to give them a vodka bath to see if it improves the taste. They were going to be used for parts and tossed anyway, so why not!?

Almost forgot helped another one try to give up cigs with vaping. Been a decent last couple of weeks started two people on vaping and started working on two more hopefully they'll start vaping soon.

I had been smoking (and loving it) for about 50 years before I tried my first e-cig...and switched immediately...

I developed something of a "missionary zeal" about vaping...(I was amazed with my new smelling breath, nice smelling clothes, clean car/apartment windows, no more shortness of breath with hills, no more $15/day for analogs, etc.etc.etc.)...

I bought a couple of cheap/reliable tanks/mods/ejoose to give to smokers to try...but i think they saw it as too new/unfamiliar/"complicated"...

Now...I give any interested smokers a couple Flings to try/take with them...(they're about the size of an analog and the "smoking experience" [including the amount of vapor and TH] is very similar)...

(I always have Flings around...they're PERFECT for being a patient in [or visiting a patient in] a "We Confiscate All E-Cigarettes" hospital.) :headbang:

GREAT prices...(but sometimes on sale at other sites)...

The link is for the "eGo ONE Mega V2 Tank" (4ml.)...but @pufZeppelin has pictures/links in this thread of the smaller ones...:thumbs:

Thanks Gerry. Rebuildable coils...Uhmm, your link says they fit on a Tron...
I'm about to buy yet another eVic VTC mini to replace one (I have four - 2 v1, 2 v2)
that started overheating when charging off USB (which I rarely do)
so I retired it
and they all seem to come with a Tron tank now...I wonder how much of a PITA
those are to rebuild..

Do you know the diameter of the actual eGo One

I'm not looking to actually get one but if they fit in the holes
on my mod stand left over from the old VAMOs which are starting to die
I might get one to fill a hole...

Thanks again and Hello :)
Regards,
Hazy

I have a tron and they for perfectly! They're super simple to rebuild. One of the members here, Shawn Hoefer, has an excellent tutorial on rebuilding CLR coils on YouTube

Thanks for kicking it back, Luvr.
Yea, I'm familiar with Shawn's videos, he's one of the few "normal" tutors on youtube.
I'll look for it.

Hey has anyone done business with these guys before?

Joyetech TRON-S Tank Atomizer - 4.0ml

The Tron-S (Red and Cyan only) are $5 each plus $5 flat rate shipping for orders under $50 (over $50 is free ship). I was thinking about picking up a few more because you guys didn't tell me they are better than the Mega V.1's :shock: Puff had me thinking maybe they were crappy (you know, the hidden a/f issue). They have just that little bit of extra airflow that I like for DTL compared to the Mega V.1.

Just thought I'd let you know I've tried the vodka bath on CL coils and it didn't go so well. :(

I do not have an Ego One, is this the same as an AIO?
If so any experience in the spitting of juice? Not just a tiny bit but quite a lot.
Asking for a friend. Any input appreciated.

AIO has top airflow, eGo series has bottom. Never have experienced spitting juice with these tanks like I did with the AIO (I had one but gave it away).

No, the AIO uses a different coil. The Ego One system has separate battery and tanks. I don't get much spitting out of my CLR coils. Some, like any other tank, but not much.

For those not real familar with using clr coils

In our household we use clrs in mega tanks and the v2 tanks all the time with about 96.4% Pg in our diy formula and learned to close almost all the way the bottom juice control ring to almost meet the top ring on coil never no burnt hits and no flooding of the coil.
But that's with a very high pg based diy formula.

A high VG formula most likely would need the bottom ring down lower as an example as the juice would be much much thicker thus flow a lot slower onto coil.

So experimenting with that bottom ring either up or down to get a burnt hit then lower or raise it to no burnt hit and it should work great once that happy medium is found. Cotton is dirt cheap and worth trying it.

Hope this helps some.

+1 on the Flings. It's always good to have a Fling.

Just to add to the above, I use 50/50 PG/VG eliquid with a 28 gauge SS316L, 2.5 mm ID CLR coil and a snug, organic cotton (KGD style) wick, juice control fully open, and I've yet to notice more than negligible leakage.

That assumes, of course, that the top cap of the coil stays on after refilling the tank. :blink:

There are various Ego One battery models that I think ranged in diameter between 16mm to 22mm. You can check here:

Electronic Cigarettes Info & Reviews | Ecigs Review

I'm surprised you found any Evic V2 Minis that come with the Tron tanks now. I thought the recent Evic Mini kits come with Cubis tanks. The Tron tanks use the same CLR coils, so they're no harder to rebuild than any of the other Ego tanks. That is to say, "drop dead simple" (to me, anyway). :)
