So I'm 3 tanks in..Vape production has grown...Flavor is much better. I did leave this standing up all night...and it looked like a whole lot of juice drained out of the tank...don't see much leakage if any...not sure where it went...could it possibly be all soaked up in the atomizer?

Unscrew the atty and look at the battery connector (and that general area)... if it leaked, that area will be loaded with e-liquid. If there is none there, then it all is in the atty. Any gurgling?

It must be in the atty...no gurgling...but it def drained a good half a tank.

Yeah mine never leaks into the battery area at all either. So it;s not that.

But sometimes I wake up and am like 'Huh? Didn't I have a 3/4 full tank in there last night? Why is it only under half full now?'

I have noticed with mine guys, I can take a cart completely out and get at LEAST 8 good full, nicely flavoured draws, plenty of vape just with what's left in the atty reservoir or wherever it goes! And then even AFTER doing that, when I blow it through from the battery thread end - I still get 2, 3 or sometimes 4 huge drops of liquid come out the other end.

I think beneath the wick / needle there is a bowl or something that acts as a reservoir which feeds the atty. No way I'm taking it apart tho as I have the mechanical skills of a 5 year old whom is blindfolded and is wearing boxing gloves!

Hey guys,

I just was informed that both Janty Korea and Ovale USA have featured my videos on their website. In the case of Ovale, it is on the *home page* front and center.

I just want to state for the record that I'm not affiliated with any manufacturer or supplier. Also, the reviews were not produced for commercial purposes.

That being said, I tend to view the videos I produce as "open source". Which means that anyone can use them.

So just to clarify, so *you* know, these videos are not biased by anything other than my personal vaping preferences.

I got an eGo-T for my birthday (woohooo)!

I went to the OvaleUSA site and noticed they now have all the stuff you need to get as backups or replacements. Unfortunately, they don't seem to believe in product descriptions (LOL) and I was wondering if anyone has tried the Tawa Atomizer? I'm mostly wondering what the difference is between the regular eGo-T atomizer, and the Tawa. I did notice that my eGo-T shipped with 1 regular atomizer and 1 Tawa atomizer, but being that I don't have any backup's yet, I'm saving the Tawa in case anything happens to the regular atty, LOL.

Well for right now I'm just using the regular atty - the Tawa is my only backup so I'm not ready to even touch it yet. When I first opened the kit, I didn't even realize there were 2 *different* attys (they look exactly the same, but the Tawa has that written on it's side). I just happened to use the already-assembled eGo that had the regular atty on it first. I'll be bolder about trying out the Tawa atty when everything isn't sold out on the Ovale USA site and I can order a couple backup attys.

I'm guessing since the Tawa sells for quite a bit less than the regular atty, there's gotta be more reason than just "it has a shorter warranty". To me, that means, they don't expect it to last as long as the regular one. But I've always been a believer in "you get what you pay for". So I just wonder which one is the better deal in the end. I guess only time will tell.

Anyway, this is only Day One of my eGo-T and already I'm LOVING it. The *only* thing I've found that I don't like is purely aesthetic - I don't like the clear tips. To me, it looks like "cheap plastic". I love the overall design of the eGo battery/cone and think it's pretty slick looking in a modern-European way. I saw some tanks *somewhere* that have a clear tank end, but the tip itself was black. I think I'll be getting some of those. Vapor production from the minute you put a loaded tank on, until it runs dry is just amazing compared to atty/carts/cartos (I was using a 510 pv with cartos before this). Longer battery (than the 510) and infrequent juice refills is just a win-win. This device really delivers.

No.... warranty isn't free. As a matter of fact, when talking about an atomizer, it can be quite expensive.

Like I already said.. speaking in terms of Janty policy.... there was no discernible difference in the manufacturing process, construction, or performance of the TAWA atty when compared to the non-TAWA unit. Mik over in the Janty forum (he's their Engineer) can attest to that.

Ahhh okay then, thank you for clarifying that for me, Scottbee. In that case I will probably just order the Tawa atty's (when they aren't sold out, LOL) to have as my backups. I see atty's as kind of an "expendable" item anyway, so I'm not that concerned about warranty unless it's with a company I have no experience with. Then warranty means a lot to me, LOL.

Not too bad...so far, so good...got one atty that gave me the 'burnt taste'...dropped it in the ultrasonic and now it's good as the other 2 atty's.

I have 3 set up with tanks to test the variations...

2 negatives at this point:
- when close to empty, it sux (could never get any of the tanks to run dry)
- using a lot more juice than what I'm averaging before

Could all be a learning curve...but something to consider.
