they sell their regular TAWA for 9.99, if they start selling some LR TAWAs then I'm guessing the price to be in between 7.99-9.99

This is was I was referring to, yes. I get that a LR atty isn't a TAWA, but if retailers are concerned with the lifespan of the atties that they have to sell them without a warranty, shouldn't that be reflected in the price? I'm not trying to be nitpicking or anything since $12 is still have nice deal on an eGo T atty and I'm sure with proper care they would last a while.

I just got a couple so this is after a few minutes of using it:

The nic level thrives on LR. I might have to use a lower mix. Or, since it actually makes me want to vape less hits, I could just keep it constant and vape less.

Throat hit is good. Maybe slightly better than normal resistance.

Flavor seems to be the same.

Heat is unchanged.

Draw time is dramatically reduced. I had to get used taking long pulls with tankomizers - like 5 seconds. Now it is about 2-2.5 seconds to deliver the same vapor and hit.

Okay, that's it. This is after using it for less than an hour. I'll post later if anything changes.

Oh and one last note, it had a LOT of primer which I got out using compressed air.

you forgot one thing: VAPOR production is much higher! and the vape is hotter!

heat is NOT unchanged. These things run much hotter.


I guess it's just too soon because I'm not getting much more vapor. Nothing noticeable. Now of course, I'm comparing this to the Volacno Tankomizers (which work excellent for me) - I have no idea how they compare to ego-T atomizers.

As far as heat, I'm not getting anything different.

They're the same thing, just re branded.

Since they're LR, they are exposed to more 'power' aka heat than the Regular Resistance, thus more heat.. Simple physics.. I can attest that by my atty heating up quicker, which again confirms the law of physics, and correlates with the statement the manufacturer made.

I just got mine and really liking them. I think they are better than a reg ego-t atty.

Did anybody do an ohms test? Vendor says 1.7 but I tested both mine and they are at 2.0. My reg ego=t attys are 2.5

i may be possible your meter has its internal resistance, it's pretty common.
try to make the red and black pins touch and see if it gives more than 0 ohm.
standard tanky should be 2.2, i believe your meter has a 0.3 ohm internal resistance.
If it is so, your LR tanky is 1.7.

that could be true. lowest i get touching the probe is 1. so if that is the case subtract 1. a digital meter

Just got my new LR Ego Tank Atty's today, they meter in @ a true 1.7 ohm, so far so good, no leaking, no bad taste, and only putting out good vapor and taste. I'm getting a bit more TH out of these also it seems than the Regulars and a warmer vapor of course with the lower resistance. Anyway just thought I would post since I have seen many that have had these and posted yet

Yea I understand the idea and all. I'm just saying, this first one is not feeling any warmer to the touch and the vapor doesn't feel warmer in my mouth either. Maybe it needs time to break in more.

try taking a hit with your LR atty, then immediately with your regular atty. You should be able to tell a small difference. Regardless, I'm glad we both like it :)

they told me their std atty was a version 1 not ver 2 (if that matters ?).

That's AWESOME then... I've been burning the same TAWA as my atty for 95+% of the time for the last 30 days. I blow it out (w/ just my mouth) every.. (some?).. days. Still working brilliantly for me as day 1. I've really been abusing this thing, burning toilet paper w/ it (dunno why), vaping some of the gnarliest colored & flavored freaks of juices that I have in my huge pile o' samples.
If this is v1.0... I can't WAIT to vape off of a v2.0 :laugh:
(watch, now it'll croak on me tonight just to frack up my life.. :facepalm: )

Was that Regular toilet paper or Menthol?? (ooh, that could sting a little haha) :)
