[Vinniz]

Thanks Shaka Zuluf

for the tutorial. tried it the 2nd time on another atty. (First one was a failure as I didnt read about the stucked wick.)

Thanks for the tip. I tried this. Atty works good. My wick is screwed. Where can I get a replacement wick from in Canada. LOL I was clumbsy a wreck the wick and metal screen around it.

You can use thread to put it in place, and after that hole in wick holder will be enough. Just remove thread when you put it in place. You don't need mash at all.

Shaka (zbogom brus li? ) I think that he is afraid how to put it/bind it together (chrys you can confirm it?), this wick is like alive, very difficult for doing anything with it. Many times I wanted to throw my e-cig thru the window because of similar problems.

Dear Shaka,
Sorry for any incovenience but I was afraid how to bind the fibers together as Zogu said. After seeing your video how to put the fibers into it, everything is clear now. Thanks a lot for your explanations. And thanks to you Zogu for your help.
I have been looking for this fibers for two weeks I could not find it anywhere here I am now forcing my e-cig supplier to put it into the stock.

You can use and old CE2 wick if you have any, just clean it per the instruction and wrap the metal piece from the old one onto the secton of the new on, and the snip it off above the metal piece

anyone know if this will work with the type b attys??

Yes same configuration, just bigger in dia so you will need another tool for pressing in the tank puncture piece..

I am using same tool for both type of atomizers. They have the same needle, difference is only in diameter of top opening. Therefore: every tool that is good for type A atty will work for type B.
It doesn't have to be true in opposite direction

 

[bajabug_hawaii]

on all my type b attys the wick runs THRU the coil so it's gonna be darn near impossible to pull it out without breaking the coil. any ideas???

 

[Shaka Zuluf]

Next time buy genuine product, that atomizers of yours are impossible to clean.

thanx for this tut' , brother!

I was able to fix the dry hitting problem with my ego-t-b with a toothpick!
Plus I know now how to make it REALLY last.

Full Of Win.

I just boil mine for 5-10 minutes, blow them out and let them sit overnight. Worked the 3 times I did it, no creeping taste and still using the same one I had a month ago.

Great writeup!

With these simple instructions, I was able to rejuvinate my 3 week old eGo-T atty in 15 minutes. No waiting overnight for it to dry, easy pull, good taste, lots of vapor and great throat hit. I'll definitely be doing this weekly.

Happy vaping!

Wick will not fall apart if you push it out of needle instead of pulling it out. Also, when you are returning it back to the needle plate, you should push, not pull from the top.
If you are still affraid of wick falling appart, try to move it just a little bit higher in needle plate. After just one tank you probably do not have leftovers to clean, am I right? It means that something else is causing burned taste.

You should first flush your wick with water, dry it with paper towel, burn it then put one drop of e-juice on it's bottom.
If your liquid is of adequate thickness - your atomizer should not heat while you vape. Aty becomes a little warm, but not very heated after 3-4 draws in a row.

Woooooohoooooo I did it! So proud
I was nervous trying this but was about to chuck the atty on my 19 day old eGo T thanks so much Vicki and Shaka!
I had a few challenges. Difficult getting the plate out, was afraid I would bend/damage but finally did get it out with a small flathead, followed all the steps, got the wick out fine. Problem came when I went to put the wick back in, wick came out of mesh Somehow I was able (determined) to get it wrapped back around and did .whew. then.... re assembled then couldn't get the plate back in tried tried tried, used a drill bit end, then empty ink pen body, pushed pushed....aggggggh no go, finally got it when I pushed it straight down hard enough and heard and felt a pop, in it was. Nervously put my juice filled cartridge back in...took a draw and Wow!!!! I can't believe the vapor! and flavor! it's better than it was when it was new. Nothing short of amazing. Wouldn't have believed it until I did it. Now I MIGHT have the nerve to try it on the other one. Thanks so much!

Same here. Great job on the instructions, guys!

when i take the wick out of my atomizer of the ego c it isn't being held by a mesh or anything.. is this right? i'm getting flooding and can't get it work right. ughhhhh i'm about to throw this thing against the wall

 

[atty]

Check inside of the spike to see if the mesh is stuck in there. While the mesh is not absolutely necessary, it does add a great deal to the smoothness of the flow. It is entirely possible to re-wick without the mesh, but wick position and thickness can become a finicky factor in getting the flow correctly adjusted.

 

[Shaka Zuluf]

if there is no mesh around fiber of your wick - you don't have genuine Joyetech eGo-C

I would agree, since this thread is about Ego-T.

 

[Feuille]

Thanks for this excellent tutorial. My atomisers are fine for now, but I had been wondering how to clean them when the time came.

Xx

 

[jtravers88]

Does this process work with the type a as well as the type b?

 

[Teach]

it should work with any atty that has the removable nib that punctures the tank.
