Looks like the eGo-T maybe the way to go. I ordered a couple atty's and a 10 pack of carts. I already have mega eGo batteries. Once I started checking web sites for these things, I realized they maybe onto something because most sites were out of atty's , out of kits, out of carts. I figured I'd hop on the bandwagon and give they babies a try. I also learned the new eGo-T's and atty's are second generation. They have improved on the original design of the atty by making the puncture tube bigger and also redesigned the tube itself.
Hope these things last awhile, they ain't cheap, that's for sure. I checked out a bunch of video's, read about issues and fixes. I learned that dry hits and burnt taste are common issues on these. Sometimes pushing the wick in a little bit fixes the problem and sometimes you have to make a little hole on the side of the wick with a pin. Seems these two things fixes these issues. Can't wait to try these out and hopefully they will workout for me like they have worked out for so many others.

Just got my ego-t today. I kind of went away from vaping for a while, but a guy at work showed me his ego-t and just had to give it another go. Question though, has anybody had any issues of the cart leaking, not leaking, leaking; rather getting juice in your mouth when you take a hit. I'm on my first cart, everything was going great, thinking this is the answer, I'll get off those burning butts for good now, then started getting some juice in the mouth. Seems to be leaking just a tad, not sure but it didn't start until the cart only had about 1/4 (maybe less) of juice left. Anybody have leaking issues when the cart starts getting low and/or know of any fixes?

The Ego-t is the only ecig that has actually allowed me to quit smoking cigs. I got my first ecig 3 years ago. I love it, but it does leak but that may be because of the way I fiddle with it when I vape. I use low resistance atomizers which produce more vapor, but dimishes the flavor of the juice. So, I usually lift the tank up and down a few times to get more juice into the atty which makes it taste great for a couple of draws but causes it to flood. The juice will then leak around the battery connection and the soak the power button. This also causes a little leakage around where the tank itself sits in the atomizer. I just lick it off. :) I love the taste of the juice! The LR atomizer also will be dead within a week or they will become hard to draw on. This is when the juice starts coming up the airway into my mouth. I'm having to suck harder on it (many puffs to get it going) to get any vapor and it is usually when it gets close to being empty. The flavor is great though!

The leaking and the cost of the atomizers is what has led me to try the Stardust and the Vision (cartomizers I think they're called). I really don't know if I'll like it though if I can't taste my juices once in awhile. I mix my own and make them extremely sweet so they would make a perfect mouth spray. :D
