Many of the options above are great and have decent prices. If getting out an about very often isn't an issue and you spend most of your time around home (which I don't want to assume you do) I have one more (and cheaper) option. 5v passthrough I just received mine a couple weeks ago and it definitely kicks harder than my RIVA. You'll want a 5v/2amp wall wart. I got mine on ebay way cheaper than anywhere else I saw with free shipping. Just do a couple searches or pm if you want the seller. The two together cost me about $22 and you won't need batteries and chargers and all that to go along. Just atties/cartos and liquid.

Honestly, I don't know if that's your problem but it's up to you to try what you want to solve the issues you are running into. I know that I tend to be great for a few weeks with my setup and then things just don't feel like they are going as great as before. Most of the time I just try to plow through as I don't have a ton of money to drop on something new all the time either and things seem to get better again after a little bit, especially if I stop tinkering with stuff trying to figure out what's going on.

I read through most of the posts previous to mine. Some were TL:DR so if someone has suggested this already my apologies and just read this as a +1 :p

Ive never tried ego tanks but ive tried smart tanks which worked great for the first few drags and the last few drags but not so great for all the liquid that spilled into and out of the atty in between those hits.

Since your on a budget i wouldnt recommend the dual coil cartos since around 10 bux a box shipped and in my experience are very finicky with thickness or color of liquids and clog or quit fast. Also get a dud here or there or a burnt tasting one here and there. Just adds up quick.

I went through all these different ideas myself and went back to a 510 atty. Now i buy regular and LR 510 atomizers and driptips and just direct drip. Once they get cloggy i remove the bridge and clean them out good and they're as good as new. Plus at 6-8 dollars they usually last me anywhere from 3 weeks to 3 months. Hope you find what your looking for.:2cool:

Hi Mezzum! I started vaping Mar14th using the Ego-t and can sympathize......sometimes it can be frustrating.....the best thing i have found so far for my ego-t is the eGo Mega Dual Coil Cartomizer from Madvapes...they are $2.50 and i love them! They save me so much money compared to replacing Ego-t attys.........they hold about 3 1/2 mls and are so easy to fill...........Hope this helped a little :) I'm sure whatever you do, you will find something that works for you!

No matter what I do, how well I clean it, whether I used a new Attys and cartridge, the liquid ALWAYS backs up into the mouthpiece, and I get a mouthful of cinnamon.

Ok so that ^ problem is due to drawing to hard. My best advice is to lighten your draw or get the ego duel coil cartomizer from madvapes which is much cheaper to replace then the tank attys.

I too have an ego t and I love it at first then had a love hate relationship with it. Now Im totally over the tanks due to many things such as leaking, loss of flavor, price ect. Now I have moved on to the ego duel coils and I am in vaping heaven again.

Good luck. I hope you get everything working right for you :)
