Good News for Newbs! Or: How I learned to stop worrying and love the eGo T.

Also an additional note, I have read about people saying 100% vg doesn't work well in the tanks, but I have not found that to be true for me.

I am vaping some 100% VG Desert Ship right now, half way through a tank, works great.

jameth: Oh, I see what you mean about the cap... lol. Consider my review reviewed! I didn't even think to do that. I've just been syringing juice through the little hole and thus avoid ever putting my fingers near juice. Works great.

For everyone else whose thinking about this: the tanks open at the bottom and have generous room for dripping into. It's a bet messy, but with a cloth or an absorbent sleeve you're good to go.

I'm editing the original post to reflect this.

Spiralus, nice review and I couldn't agree with you more for newbie's. I have turned quite a few newb's on to this system.

Yes, 120ml. is a lot. (I bought the 120ml bottle when FSUSA was having another one of their great big bottle sales). And both WE and Pure Cig are tobacco flavors. It's hard to explain. Some "tobacco" flavors are made up of rich ingredients (caramel, vanilla, etc. with lots of undertones, and overtones---like WE.) Others are "cleaner"...not that many flavors in the mix. IMHO, the more flavors that go into the mix, the more a juice will need to "steep", "age", or "sit" for the flavors to "marry" and come out for you to get the maximum effect. Smaller bottles "age" faster than large bottles as a rule. Pure Cig is one of those "cleaner" flavors that doesn't need to sit for a while before you will taste what it's intended to be--a straight, no-nonsense "smoking" experience. But that doesn't mean that you should stop trying other tobacco flavors in the meantime. If,when you have the funds and they have another big bottle sale, you could get 120ml (or even 60ml) of Pure Cig from them, then you'd be able to buy smaller bottles of juices that need to steep and they'd have enough time to age. It takes at least a couple of months before you can get enough juices in your "storage" to be able to make juice purchases that you can have the option of letting them "steep" for maximum flavor. I think that David is supposed to come out with "Gold Label" juices that will be "pre-steeped" for those who don't have the luxury of waiting for juices to be ready. I'm excited about that one!

sweet! Thank you very much for all of the information. You were right, the service at FSUSA is phenomenal. The 2 of 2 was included as you said it would be. Thanks again! Can't wait for the pre-steeped bottles Like a fine wine huh? haha

Ordered my two tank atties and 10 tanks from cignot, good price, and picked up a few others items for free shipping (over $59)

Got them today, and I'm very pleased with the tank thus far. Was afraid since they're clear they'd suffer from the issues the clearomizers do (basically disintegrating from the juice) but they don't.

Volcanoecigs.com

Tank atty's are $11.99
5/pack tank blanks are $3.99
Shipping is $1.39
Discount is 10% (epuffdirect)

That's the cheapest I've found...

Noob question alert~!

Q: Volcano equipment fits Janty eGo? i.e. tank-o-mizer/blank carts/ etc

Yes. Their Inferno line is a rebranded eGo.

Brand new to vaping...3 days so far. I started with the ego tank and am absolutely amazed at how well this mimics smoking. I haven't changed the way I take a hit...and everything "feels" like smoking except the taste.

Just thought I would mention that member juicejunky has a fantastic collection of detailed pictures of the ego tank atomizer here.

Those are great pictures... thanks, I had no idea what it looked like behind that plate with the puncture devise.

Got my Ego-T yesterday but no juice yet... just pure VG

Once the atomizer is cleaned out of the fluid it ships with the VG is very pure and tasteless ( as I would want it to be ) and produces a nice ammount of vapor

so far so good, looking forward to actual e-Juice .. should arrive in the mail today!

Stories like these makes me want a ECig even more. Been keen to use it to cut down on my intakes as much as possible. I've always been skeptical about the feel and taste, but it seems that the technology has caught up.

 

[Adverb]

This is encouraging.
