Picture 40 year old 6', 230lbs man dancing in his office singing:

I got my Ego-C
I got my Ego-C
I got my Ego-C

Initial thoughts. Put some 24mg RY4 Dekang juice in a cart. This stuff wouldn't produce vapor at all in my SMK 510T tanks. In the Ego-C it actually has some throat hit. Better flavour then the SMK so far but we'll have to wait a week to make the ultimate decision on that as the SMK where not bad for the first few days. Nice easy draw, a little more then sucking air through a straw. Again the SMK was like this until the last few days (on a two week old attie) so we'll give it some time. The cart tops are really hard to get off to fill. I would really suggest using a needle to fill these things. After using a silver bullet and a Lavatube VV these batteries are really small! I may have to find some sort of adapter to put this attie on my LTVV or bullet.

That's my first impression. So far I like it.

I haven't opened up twice yet. Just slapped in the attie, screw on the battery, plugged in a cart and started vaping! I'm getting a bit light headed here now. BTW it's really hard typing with one hand!

I will for sure. One thing I can say. I'm actually enjoying a Dekang RY4 again. Can't wait to get home and try out all my other juices that I thought where marginal. BTW I have to appologize Mom. This was suppose to be for you but I just had to try it out. I've got another on the way and it's all yours.

Moms are understanding that way, sometimes. :laugh: I mean come on, ya can't give your Mom something that's not quite right for Her.

I just love getting new toys to play with. Does any one know where I could get an adapter to put this thing on a 510 threaded mod? Since the atomizer has no threads on it I'm going to need something. The base that the attie sits in is 510 threaded but is also recessed .75 cm or so. Basically just need something that is 510 male to 510 female.

My Ego-C arrived this morning, straight out of the box it works beautifully! Ergonomically it's comfy and still discrete compared to a 510. I've been vaping with it for a few hours with the occasional switch to a 510 for a drip. A little cooler vape comparatively but still nice TH with the low nic (8 & 12 mg) juice I'm vaping. No leaks thus far and the carts are easy to fill. Assembly of the atty is also straightforward; I watched a few vids and that was all the info required. Fit and finish is high and cosmetics are nice.

Slightly OT but I purchased the Ego-C from Nicfitnation and the service was exemplary, I ordered Monday evening and received it this morning in NL. To arrive on the rock in 4 days nicfit would have to package and ship seconds after I ordered!:laugh: I'm suitably impressed, kudos to them.

Gotta agree with service from Nicfit, top notch! Their prices aren't bad either. The only thing I noticed with the eGo-T is a bit of plastic taste. I used the new ones & even an older eGo-T tank - the older one has slightly less plastic taste. I used both the plastic & rubber caps for a comparison. I think Joyetech or anyone else needs to use a different plastic to solve this issue. It has only been 4 days for me, so things could change.

I used to drip but that is soooo last year :)

No seriously I was pretty much a full time dripper on a LR 510 and a silver bullet. I actually think that was one of the reasons I didn't like vaping. You couldn't drip while driving and the carts they had last year where horrible. Nobody likes the filler and filler mods where not much better. I really don't like cartos as I could never get them to work right. Or maybe they where working right but either way I don't like them. Now that tanks are out and seem to be working I'm a much happier vapor.

I remember last year people where trying to make 510 regular carts in to some sort of no filler mod. It was funny to hear how many people would put on the cart and bang... juice all over the place!

I got my eGo-C from nicfit also. I ordered it on a Thrusday and it shipped that evening. But then spent the weekend hanging out in a BC post office.

I did it again this week. Didn't order my stuff until Thrusday and just got the notice that it has shipped. Now it won't get here until Tuesday I'm sure. Need to start pulling the trigger on these things on Monday or Tuesday.

I haven't noticed a plastic taste but to be fair I'm still unsure what I should be tasting:blink: I'm only a few weeks in but that's already a few weeks off the analogues. The Ego-C is great for sampling juices; I haven't even bothered switching attys, just the tank. Within a few hits the 'new' juice is the predominant taste. I have a few VG only juices from Jugheads and I have noticed these seem to be thicker and require a heavier draw. Is this normal or ego specific?

Okay the thread is a bit old but I thought I would post my experience with the eGo-C so far.

I love this thing. Vapor production is good. Not great but good. Does better with the VG then PG but that's to be expected. Flavour is good and after putting on a different tank it wicks up the new flavour in three or four drags. The tanks themselves are nice. I have only had a couple of minor leaks. These leaks would only flood the atty. I haven't had it actually leak juice out the vent holes.

I've used tanks with both the hard plastic and the silicon (?) soft caps. The only problem with the soft caps I have found is the juice doesn't flow to the bottom of them initially very well. After filling and putting the cap back on I sometimes have to use a paper clip to get the bubble to move to the top. But really I don't mind that at this point. The hard caps that come on the tanks don't seem to have this problem. Battery life is decent but what one would expect out of a 650mHa battery. I picked up last week (and received this week) a couple of VV900mHa batteries (pass through).

I've had one atomizer die on me so far. Not sure if but I suspect it was me that killed it and not anything inherent to the build quality. But I guess we'll find out more as I go through them. The draw on the atomizers has stayed pretty consistent which is a nice change from the SMK tanks I was using. I've vaped probably twenty flavours through it and some are thicker then others.

So was it worth the 100 bucks? Probably not for a newbie but for me it's worth it.
