Got my eGo-T yesterday...would appreciate all the help I can get.

[wildcatgirl]

I got my eGo-T yesterday, I love it, however; I am totally new to vaping that I need all the help I can get. I do have several questions and hope I can get answered because I have look all over for them. Any other suggestions or advice are also welcome. So here goes:

Is the cracking noise normal when you use the E-cig?
Do I need to turn off the E-cig before charging it?
If I accidentally exhale with the E-cig in my mouth, will it mess it up?
When I'm not using my E-cig, should it be standing up or lying down horizontally?

Thanks!

Well first, welcome to ECF, wildcatgirl! Now, yes, the crackling noise is normal. No, you do not need to turn it off before connecting it to the charger. If you accidentally blow back into the e-cig, it might cause a bit of juice to flood into the connection to the battery. No big deal, but I would avoid doing it. Try to keep it standing up for long periods such as overnight, but laying it down on it's side will not hurt it.

Good luck, and again welcome!

Thanks! That ease my mind a little. I spent a good amount on it and would like to keep it as nice as possible.

Welcome wildcatgirl! Thanks for asking these questions... I was wondering about laying it down or standing it up myself because I get leakage, especially in the morning.

Welcome all!!

I leave all my ego style setups laying on the side. When you stand them up they are too unstable and easy to knock over.

I also have a habit of disabling the battery if I won't be using it for some time. Like when its in my pocket, overnight, in storage, etc.

I couldn't have answered these questions any better!!

Welcome welcome welcome! I will say one thing. The more research I did the more money I spent in my first week.

Welcome wildcatgirl, I had the same questions. Thanks for asking and thank all of you for the answers.

Glad I could help answer other's questions by asking these. LOL! Also, thank you all for answering my questions! I was so concerned that if I laid my ego down I would mess it up, but glad to know that it won't be messed up. I can see how someone can spend a lot of money on supplies for ecigs. All the ejuices out there and battery colors can definitely break the bank if your not careful. I was so tempted to buy more ejuices when I got my ecig the other day, but I don't know where I would put them when not using, also I can only vape one flavor at a time so I will just use what I have now. I really love my ego, I think it was so worth the money I payed for it.

New user on the eGo-C Twist. After some time, it's getting hotter and less smoke. And sometimes the juice colour turns darker as well. Is it time to replace? I saw something about the wick thing. If yes, is it possible to DIY a new one myself?

The coil gets gunked up and doesn't work very well. Wicking won't matter if the coil is so caked that the juice can't come in contact with it. Try another atomizer and see that fixes it. Rip apart a dead atomizer and have a look at it. You'll be amazed at the buildup on the coil. I've never tried re-coiling an ego-c, but if you're into that there are a lot of tanks you can do it on.

Here's a cheap & easy e-cig stand that I built. The stand is wood from a Crafts store and I super glued 3/4" PVC to it. Got the Pipe from Menards (or any Hardware Store)
