Are you using 50/50 PG/VG? I've heard a high VG ratio doesn't play well with the tanks! I have never had a problem with my 50/50 FSUSA juice but I do get a burnt taste every now and then when I change flavors and on a new atty it takes a while to break it in - just keep pulling on it and not inhaling until the bad taste goes away - at least that seems to work for me. There are a lot of threads on the review forum with tricks for the tank and some videos too.

The only thing I don't like about the tank is that the flavors just don't come through on them for me like a carto. Gonna try some 2x flavor in them to see if that helps because I really like the convenience and easy filling on them.

I am curious to know if anyone has used the EGO-T atty on a higher voltage mod over 4V as higher voltage seems to bring out the flavor.

samsmom, I know the 50/50 mix of juice from other suppliers is causing problems, but the FSUSA juice doesn't seem to bother them. Its all I use and I've had no problems.

If flavor or vapor drops off, try taking three or four sharp puffs with your finger OFF the button on your battery.

I haven't tried a higher voltage with my Buzz, but I usually don't like it when I do, so I tend to keep it low. 3.5 to 4.0

Oh - I haven't had any problem with my FSUSA 50/50 either - just wondered if he might be using a high VG ratio causing it not to wick well. I'll try the sharp puff trick - thanks!

I have to use the 808 to 510 adapter with the Buzz.

Yeah - I figured that. I just wonder if the taste would be better at 4V as you know the EGO is only about 3.2 at best. I've got my eye on a VV and hope to be able to get one soon!! I just noticed recently that when I use my 5V P/T in my car it just seems to taste better. I think I am building up a resistance to the lower voltage and it's taking more to satisfy my taste buds if that's possible?

No, my juices are all 50/50 (since I usually vape the specialties). Also, there aren't any hanging chads. I know I am in Florida and all but... :p As for my eGo, it is 3.7 plugged in and 3.8 unplugged. I checked all the batteries I get with a multimeter. :)

LOL, the "hanging chad" i was referring to is the little plastic tab that is created on the bottom of the tank when the spike on the atty cuts the hole. You gotta have a hanging chad!

I know what you meant. No, I pull mine out when I refill them. It makes it harder to just shoot in the juice from a bottle.

wow.... my hyperlink was vandalized, how mature!

For those who care to see the issue you can replace all the ............'s above with ".vapers" "forum" ".com" without all the quotes or spaces.

Do we block links to google if something shows up there we dont agree with?

DarkriftX, your Link wasn't vandalized ... at least not by FSUSA or anyone on the Forum. I'm not a computer nor an ECF expert, but I recall reading somewhere about ECF not allowing certain kinds of Links and I think they have a system in place that garbles them when it occurs. I've noticed the same thing with certain foul language words, the system won't allow the word to post.

Maybe someone who knows more about it than me will comment, but I'm pretty sure that is what happened.

Several people think that there are issues with the Tank Atty that can be fixed by messing with the wick inside the spike that pierces the tank, but you must be careful or you can ruin the atty.

If you're getting dry/burnt hits, try GENTLY pushing the wick in al little further JUST A LITTLE BIT. It's possible to push it all the way through into the atty and then your atty is completely ruined.

Also, if you tank is leaking when you've got about 1/4 tank left, the wick may need some fluffing, again being careful not to push it into the atty.

FWIW, I don't have the tank (yet). I'm just passing along what Ive read. Sorry I can't give credit where credit is due.
