Hi, I have been vaping for about 5 months now using an ego-t with a ce-4 atomiser, i wasnt really that satisfied with the flavour i was getting, and thats one of my main reasons for vaping.

so i was looking into other atomizers and came across the A2-T atomiser which is supposed to give more flavour, im going to buy this in a couple of weeks, but i wanted to get some advice from experienced users regarding the wick and heating element, because one of the other reasons i wanted to buy this is because you can replace them easily.

So what sort of wick is best for flavour using pg based liquid (1mm,2mm,3mm,etc) and what wire resistance would be best? Im not sure what my battery voltage is but im guessing its around 3-4volts.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

The AGA-T+ is what we call an RBA - rebuildable atomizer. It means that you have to make the wick and coil yourself for it to work.

Because of this, it appeals to people because you can use any set up you want, and thus are free to pick the best materials.

Most people use stainless steel mesh #500, which is the best you can use right now. It wicks better than silica and can withstand much higher temperature. It also doesnt break down nearly as often as silica.

However, it is because of this metal wick that you lose a lot of heat that would otherwise be used to heat up juice. Thus, you will have to use a battery powerful enough to put out enough current for your vape.

So i suggest you get one of the bigger battery mods; i recommend the VAMO same as i am using, cheap and effective. It actually is an essential part of your set up, because your eGo-T will be far underpowered to run an AGA.

As for coil, get 30 awg kanthal, 5 wraps should give you a sweet 1.6 ohm coil.

Good luck.
