I recommend getting a good pack of cartomizers. They wont leak, are easy to use, and are really consistent.
The standard resistance ones (2.5-3.0ohm) will give a cooler vape, while the low resistance cartos give a warmer vape and more TH. if your going to use LRs on an eGo I recommend the Boge 2.0ohm cartos. They are popular and work very well on an eGo.
I don't recommend using really low resistance, like 1.5ohm cartos on the eGo bc they will put a lot of stress on the eGo MOSFET. If your not careful you can fry your eGo.
Cartos also give good flavor. I've used an eGo tank and it dulls the flavor of my juices.
I use the Ressurector cartomizers on an EPower and they give great flavor and a ton of vapor.
Cartos are really much easier to use daily than the eGo tanks and you won't have to worry about all the leaks.

Goodluck

Quick question. Why is it that sometimes my resurrectors won't screw properly on my e-power? is it just my switch or does this happen to you as well?

What do you mean it doesn't screw on properly? Like it threads wrong?
If so, It could be that you cross threaded a carto onto your switch at one point and screwed up the threads.
I've never had any problems with screwing them on. Make sure you never force a carto on or over tighten a carto. Overtightening can cause the pin to move and then the carto won't make a connection

Yea lol that's what I meant sorry. but yea, 3 out 5 of the resurrectors stays in, while the other two won't. It only happens with the resurrectors, though. My cisco 306's and 510's, boges, etc thread properly. Weird.

Anyway, thanks!

Thats def strange.

Have you ever accidentally dropped the PV or sat on it or something and had the carto sticking out the of E-Power angled?
i sat on it mine bad one day and the carto jumped a few threads on one side and was crooked. I had to force it back just so I could be able to screw it on or off. If youve done something like this that could def be part of it. Luckily my switch threadings didnt get stripped and it still works perfectly. That could def really screw the threads up tho.
I recommend trying a spare switch and seeing if that fixes it. It prob just got crossthreaded at some point so now it acts funny sometimes. Its not a bad idea to keep an extra switch around. Im still using my origimal switch and its worked flawlessly, but I do have an extra one for those "just in case" moments

Heyas leakingb,

I tried the ego-t tanks, and soon gave up on them due to the flavor issues. They were very convenient to fill, but convenience with no flavor just didn't work for me.

The ego-t batts are great though. Lots of different options. If you want the capacity of a tank, you might look into carto tanks. They can be had for ~$10 on up. And I've seen them with up to 7ml or even higher capacity. The tank part is indefinately reusable, and the carto's don't seem to need replacing any more often than a carto without a tank (although I'm still new enough to carto tanks to have no direct experience of longevity). They're not as easy to fill as an ego-t tank, but flavor/vapor/etc seems just as good as a normal carto.

I'm not gonna lie, i've dropped it a lot of times lol. It is strange though how it works on every other carto and atty i have. But I'll definitely get a new switch with the plastic buttons.

I have the ego A and B, neither have leaked. They do not provide as much flavor or vapor as cartos or drip tips but their ease of use has its place. When sampling I use a drip tip/atomizer. When I find a flavor I want to test drive for a day the tanks are perfect. If the juice is loved after a couple days in the tanks its given its own cartomizer. This juice promotion scheme seems to work pretty well for me.

Take off the little piece of plastic off the caps of the tanks after the first spike puncture. After that use a syringe to fill the tanks. Then you don't have to take the caps off any more..less wear and tear. I haven't had any leaks in 4 months with my Joye Ego T. Also refill the tanks to 90% and leave a drop or two when you're ready to change tanks.
Cheers and GL.

I started off with the type A and then got the type B. What a difference! More vapor and more flavor with the type B. I did get some leaks with certain juice on the B that did not leak on the A. So I'll just finish off that juice with the A's or try out a cartomizer next. BUt I would definitely go with the B if you're sticking with the tanks.
