I got one good one, one that leaked when less than 1/4 tank left, and one major leaker. I have them all working now with one new wick and adjustment, but don't like the cool muted flavors on non-menthol juices.

Also can't get over the heating juice in plastic container before vaping bit. I wouldn't drink from a unmarked plastic water bottle left in a hot car, so don't want to vape plastic tainted juice either. I've since pulled the needle plate out and just drip in the atomizer. Get good flavor with the straight tankless ego-t atomizer.

So I found them an interesting experiment, but a no go for me. I hope they improve the tanks by getting rid of the whistle tips and using something other than plastic.

I just got mine today and I've been going at it all day. I don't get any muted flavor on my Backwoods Brew Casablanca. I think it tastes and works great, a syringe tip will help to fill the tank without having to take the cap off. Give it a few drags without pressing the button to make sure its wicking nice, and start vaping away.

I'm enjoying mine a lot! Haven't had any problems yet, and really love that I don't have to do the fiddling with it that I had to do with regular cartridges.

I do get a bit of a dry hit now and then, but I just give a few little taps to the atomizer to get any air bubbles out of the base of the tank and that seems to take care of it.

Here, there, everywhere!
My only true concern is the moisture that beads up in the mouth piece airflow part - I would think it would be a germfest and I am not a germafobe by far. I regularly take a needle tip syringe and run hot water and Vodka through it to "de-germ" them. I mean the human mouth does have ALOT of germs.

BUT it is still my favorite by far!

I understand your concern, but if it's any consolation both PG and VG are supposed to be antimicrobial. Plus I think the condensation in the tank should all be from vapor... unless you're blowing into it. :)

Either way, I agree that it's a good idea to sterilize your atomizer and cartridges on a regular basis.

Just great device Im still on my first TW Tornado-T atty and tank from the full set and is doing as great as day one over a month right now. Great TH and huge vapor production. Only problem my eliquid usage is almost the triple per day now. Filling the tank so many times a day. But more hassle free than other methods including dripping. Loving it more and more every day.

first atty only lasted a week. Second one is plugged up after a week. But I still love these newest attys. Never had a leak or burnt taste. I use any where from 50/50 to 75 pg 25 vg juice 32-36 nic and they do not leak and wick every time for me. I am using about 3 carts a day my normal amount of juice

first atty only lasted a week. Second one is plugged up after a week.

My first one was V1 and I had to tweak it a little - one month and still going. My second two are V2 no tweaking just blew out primer and washed them with Vodka and rinsed with hot water - 3 weeks and still going.

I rotate the three (three different colors so the atty I am using has to match the batt I am using:)) and have had no problems (after tweaking the v1).

As for the extra juice I use - at least I am using it not spilling it now:)

Someone mentioned using more juice in their Tank.
I'm doing the same... except this time it's all going into my lungs.
I mean, i'm sure I lost tons of juice to the old 510 carts when I started.
but this is so easy to just sit and suck on... and vape.... and vape... and vape....
So, yeah... using lots of juice. Need to find something I like and whip up a liter or two
 
I bought two, one for my wife and one for me. To start with they are easy to fill, great to carry several tanks with you for a variety of flavors. The bad side is if I fill them over 1/2 full they vape horribly, harsh, terrible plastic taste. If I fill them 1/2 or lower they vape pretty good, better as they get lower. Of course both attys died within a month so I am thinking I will not be replacing them. I have cartos that have been used for over three months and both of these died in less than 30 days, do the math.

mine are "better" after taking out the two plastic inserts from the mouthpiece end of the atty, but out of 3 attys, two still leak when the tank is 1/4 full or less. They are ok (good for driving) but I just don't think they are ready for primetime. I prefer using a clearomizer XL with a drip tip on my ego batteries. Better taste for sure..

I use them like any other tool in my kit.

There are times when I crave the flavor of a drip.
When trying a new flavor, I'm not going to fill a tank and get a clean tank atty just for a taste test.
When I'm driving, I prefer a regular 510 with my PCC and carto, rather than the bulkiness of an ego battery.
When at the computer, I tend to use the eGo-t attached to an eGo pass-through with a favorite flavor.

They're OK, but they'll never be a complete replacement for every situation.

Again, it's a tool, and I don't use just one tool for every situation.

I have 2 tank atties and so far they have been going good for almost a month. The taste was weak at first but now they are not bad at all. They just needed breaking in. I have not cleaned them yet. I use mine when I am out and about. I like the eGo battery life (I have the 1000ma). I get a whole day with no problem on mine. Just ordered another 1000ma battery today! I use my box mod or Provari at home.

I like to drip with a standard 510 atty on the Provari.

I don't like it. And have had the tanks since it first hit the US (and from different vendors).

I cannot get pass the plastic taste when there are better options out there.

My go-to are mods with the vapemate or MAP tank--or bottom feeders. The flavor is on spot to direct dripping.

It's a great all-in-one for beginners or for those who are willing to sacrifice taste for convenience.

Best taste for me is with the Vape Mate or dripping,but these things are convenient on the go.I don't have a plastic taste issue,but I thing my taste buds are weak.I only taste the stongest of flavors it seems.
I loose a lot of flavor with most of the bottom feeders,but they have their use as well.
I think they are better than the cracking,leaking clearomizers at this point.
