If you want more flavor from your Ego tank, try this.

Pull out the end piece on the mouthpiece (use a bent paperclip or similar). Then pull out the second piece you find lower down with a small hole in it.

The draw is easier and the flavor is improved no end.

I have a lot of spare tanks now.... I am going to have to try that.... I didnt realise you could remove that part.

So far, my VG juices from Vaperite have been giving me zero problems, but I noticed that his VG's aren't as thick as others I've tried (Ms T, Juicy Liquid). Is there really such a difference between mixologists, or am I 'seeing things?' I also took my inner tip off, and it does draw much better, but looks nasty with the condensation drawing juice colored bubbles up to the top of it. (no biggie, really) I changed out attys today, as my first baby finally died today...dun dun dun...and the flavor was awesome! I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the dead one...seems like some sort of experimentation is in order, lol!

Love the tackle box pic...I went to the craft store and bought a tote meant for scrapbooking. Lots of pockets!

Hi T3Dogg20

I got it sorted out by thinning my juice. I love this thing so much now. My niece and I have spent all afternoon adding a drop of this a drop of that to try flavor combinations. So much fun.

Your tip about removing the baffle in the mouthpiece is pure gold. It really DOES bring more true flavor out of the juice! My out of the box Bavarian cream went from pineapple undertones to the spot on real deal. Thanks for sharing that!

I think you are right about the different viscosity, I dont know WHY it is, but I can tell a difference between the FSUSA VG and the CigNot VG

So what do u think the mix is your vaping right now 50/50,70/30? Im doing 50/50 and at times it seems ok but at other times it seems like I have to really drag hard for a decent vap.

Hi themysterious1 (so mysterious!)

I added about 10-15ml of distilled water to a 30ml thick FSUSA VG... its probably a little bit too loose, but at this point Im also needing to cut nicotine. I REALLY like some of the flavors so Im using the PV more than I thought I would, but cant handle that much nic. I got 24mg xtra flavor VG juices but I probably should have gotten more like a 14.

The frugal me says YEA for stretching things out by cutting them. The logical me says why you gotta always go making things so difficult!

We're all different though. I like a lot of vapor not so much throat hit and subtle flavor. I was an ultra light smoker.

I JUST got my eGo-T and this thread has been priceless. I went from sad vaper to oh-happy vaper. Blow-out/clean/blow out atty + primer puffs + removing 2nd wall of the mouth piece = why I love this place so very, very much. Y'all are rockstars.

HAHAHAHAHA! awesome. I cant get off these forums. Everyone SOOOOO helpful and knowledgable.

It's kinda how we roll at ECF. We all want to learn and after we learn we share, ...and then learn some more. Cool, isn't it.:thumb:

Indeed it is Rosco. So grateful that fate landed me here. Every single person here is helping me improve my life, so you can all stick that in your pocket and pull it out on a rainy day when you are feeling blue, that indeed you HAVE made a difference in the world. One person at a time.

:laugh:

I did this and it does work. The only thing is my atty died the next day. I wonder if doing this caused the atty to die? This wouldn't cause juice to float back would it?

I wonder if that had anything to do with it? Now I'm starting to worry.

from a logical engineering viewpoint it seems to me that it affects air to vapor ratio only. If I dry hit it I can pull juice up the whistle - I suppose that could work backwards as well to flood atty??
