I received my eGo kit today. :) It came with a CE4. I rinsed the CE4 out and it's ready to go. I'm not going to have much time to play with it today, but I would like to try it out. The battery is fully charged. How long can you leave an e-liquid in it? I won't really be able to try it out fully until Saturday. Is it okay to leave juice in there until then? I'm wondering, how long is too long to let it sit until you can get around to being able to fully enjoy it. Two days-three days? My concern is all the talk about tank cracking or some really off flavors. Thanks!

Hi Blkhwkdr. The juice will be fine for a couple of days. I've left juices in tanks for a full week on occasion without any problems at all. FYI - some juices which have a lot of alcohol in them may change slightly in flavour/appearance after being left in a clearo for a while. I'm also assuming you know that some juices (like cinnamon) are a no-no for plastic tanks?

Yes, that's why I was concerned about just leaving it in there for a couple of days. You've eased my mind. I ordered my kit from Madvapes and a 10 ml bottle of 6mg Top Vapor Root Beer along with it, just so I would have some to try it with. All the different vendors and juices can be a bit overwhelming to a new guy, but I'm doing my homework.

With my CE5s (I am guessing the same plastic as the CE4s) I have a menthol in one and a pear juice in the other and have just been topping them off for nearly 3 weeks now and they are fine. The pear one I think is about ready for a head replacement though when this tank is finished. I would guess that as long as you are not using a tank cracker juice you are fine.

FYI- Root beer has been known to crack polycarbonate tanks. There is a thread here about the juices that crack tanks. Maybe someone can post a link for you. Or just do a search.

I have a Protank and some EVODs and heads otw, along with a Spinner. I'll use the CE4 until it burns out or cracks. It will be my very own vaping guinea pig. Thank you for the heads-up.
