eVic Changeable Atomizer (eCa)

[iamlenb]

I got one. Long style. Not bad, fits great, looks great, no leaks, but really tight draw. I cleaned mine out in boiling water and that took away the plastic taste some people reported. Thinned out my 50/50 juice and it vapes better, no more dry hits. Certainly not my go to tank, but a nice option if I want something of a hybrid look to the eVic. Glad I got it, but probably never going to use it much.

Oh my goodness this is the best atomizer for the eVic that I have ever used.

I put papa smurf ejuice in it, which is delicious: Papa Smurf E-Liquid

Only 3-4 seconds on 5 volts on my evic and I get a huge cloud of vapor and an orgasmic taste. wow.

Definitely a happy day for me! I only wish these atomizers were cheaper. does anyone know a website that sells them for cheaper than $19.95? Thanks

I've been using the ECA for about three weeks now. At times I've been thoroughly pleased, other times completely ...... off.

I have learned a few tricks with it. When the vape gets dry and burnt, I previously thought the coil in the head had gone bad or need a cleaning and/or dry burn. I destroyed about 6 of these $5 heads doing this.

I was this close to giving up on vaping a while back because of this silly issue. Instead I got the Vapeonly BCC, which works great at first too, but it seems to have the opposite problem, it floods for no damn reason and I haven't figured out a quick fix for that, hence why I'm back to using the ECA.

Just in the past few days, I've come to learn that the ECA's real problem (dry hits) is too much pressure on the tank. All you need to do pull the tank out and put it back in. You can tell because the tank is very difficult to pull out when the pressure is too high. No cleaning of head, "re-priming" the head, disassembly of head required. Then just do a couple non-powered drags/pulls/vapes after pulling it out and putting it back, and then bam, works like a champ again.

I'm down to just two working eGo-C heads for my ECA, and I think they're just too expensive for as often as I've needed to replace them.

BTW, don't buy eGo-C head clones (non-Joyetech). I got some from AquaVapor (good service, BTW) at $2 each, but they don't fit properly in the ECA and they are not repairable like the genuine ones.

Monday I took the plunge, slapped down a CC number for and iGo-W RDA, and all the accessories it requires (final bill was about $50). It should be here tomorrow. Kinda excited to build my first coil.

I absolutely love the eCa paired with the eVic

So how did your RDA setup go?

And now a month later...

I got an Evic from EVC because they were clearing them out and it came with an ECA head...never was a big fan of the e-Go C idea, I've stuck mostly to carto's and clearos and even dripping I don't do much because I seem to do more flooding than dripping so maybe I am getting this wrong. I got a new juice today and I thought I would finally give it a try. I filled it up threw the bottom hole like it says to, gave it a few dry hits, and then let it sit for a bit because it didn't look like the juice budged so I thought it needed time to ajust. I have the thing set on 6.1 watts...a little warm for a 2.2 ohm atty but it's not earth shattering...Anyways I take my first drag off of it and I get a lovely mouth full of burnt atomizer taste. As I am experementing with rebuilding Pro tank and carto coils I am fairly familiar with this taste but not familiar with what caused it this time around. So I turned it down to the Evic's "recommended" 5.2 watts and tried again. I got a wonderful clould of vapor but a really weak flavor. I took a dry hit, turned it up a point or two and tried this again. I repeated this again then let it sit for a bit. Searched the forum and read a few threads. Still get the dry metal burn taste around 6 watts. Like I said, the e-Go C is not my system. I am lucky as a newer Vapor I had more options to try out and believe me, from reading some stories here I am very greatful for those who paved the way for me. Now if someone could just explain to me how this works please?

Thank you for your time and Happy Vaping

I've had my EVIC for quite a while, and decided to give this a shot despite all the naysayers about Ego-C atomizers (never tried until now).

Gotta say, I'm pleased with it, the vapor and hit are pretty consistent. Surprised, based on the size of the atomizer, that I get as much as I do out of it. I have my go-to menthol, and it's consistent enough to use for that, and I use my RBA's for my other some-timey flavors.

I do wish I could rebuild, just don't know if my hands would be steady enough for something this small.

But, 3 weeks in, I can't complain. One burnt hit in these 3 weeks, and just pulling out and putting the tank back in did the trick - I guess it is a pressure thing.

Hey guys, I started a new thread because I blinked and for some reason skipped over this in my list looking for it. But I figured out a new use for the ECA while fighting with it trying to get it to not dry hit. I started a thread here....

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/487617-eca-dripping-atty.html

I wouldn't say I would by it just to use it as a dripping atty because for the price you can get an RDA that will do the job much better, but if you've got one it is something to try. I'd love to hear someone else's thoughts on it. I've done it with Joyetech 510 atty's...why not the ECA's?

Is the atomizer head exp?

They're not expensive, but they're not cheap...they're 3-5 dollars and you usually have to by them in a 5 pack. Unlike the 510 atomizers they're not really meant to be used for dripping and the ECA type A style only works on a Evic, the type be or "short skirt" style you can use on a more traditional 510 style connection but I think it would just look funky on anything other than an Evic or an Evic Easy head. Joyetech made something that costs almost as much as a protank with replaceable atomizer heads that cost twice is much. How ever, since unlike it's e-Go C cone predicessor its pretty much leak proof..you can drip on it but it is not easy because you have to keep a little juice in the cartridge and you can only drip 2-3, maybe 4, drops max and put the cartridge in and take it back out to drip on it again. I just wondered if anyone else had tried this method?

ditto, wasn't too pleased with this one, its okay but not the best i've tried from joyetech

I've been using the ECA for about a week now. I like the look and feel on my eVic the mouthpiece form factor is comfortable, I'd like this to be my daily driver....BUT....The original set up (out of box experience) was great for about a day. I understand the ejuice will accumulate in the container and I knew the draw would be tight. The problem I had was extreme gurgling added to the vaccum created by the ejuice in the container it forced me to take a more aggressive drag making the ejuice leak through the mouthpiece. I bought replacement atomizer heads and figured it might be a bad atomizer. I took the ECA apart, cleaned out the well the mouthpiece goes into with a qtip and using a quarter I removed the inner housing to replace the atomizer I notice ejuice had gotten under the inner housing. I cleaned out the excess using a qtip. After replacing the atomizer and making sure everything was tightened down I'm giving it another try. So far no gurgling and no juice leaking out of the mouthpiece.
