Thanks Red Bird! Will I need to get a new battery, or will these other tanks fit what I have???

With the ego system, you can use just about anything that uses 510 or ego/510 connections. My own experiance with CE4's was about as bad as yours. If it gurgles on you, remove it and put a napkin/paper towel down at the connection end and lightly blow into the mouth piece.
 
Just wanted to write in an update. Since I started this thread, I have gotten a Kanger EVOD as well as a Mini Vivi Nova. Gotta say I am not thrilled with either. The EVOD is nice, easy to fill, clean, etc, and I get a really good vapor from it, however I get ZERO throat hit from it. I really need that aspect. I am using a MEl at the 33% mix and 18 mg for nicotine. I get great th from the CE4 using the same juice, they are just very tempermental with leaking gugling etc. Not sure about the Mini Vivi yet. Seems to be a very airy draw and not as good of a th...I really want to like a bottom coil tank, but I need that good strong th.....any further thoughts from you all??? Thanks Again!!! :confused:

Hi All! This is my first post. I have been trying to read through threads to see if I could find my answer before asking and I have seen this issue mentioned but haven't seemed to find a resolution. I am new to vaping, just started a week and a half ago and have already lost any desire for analogs. I am truly loving it!!!! Just having issues with some gurgling and getting a small bit of juice in my mouth when vaping. I got an eGo 1100 CE4-CC Clearomizer kit based on a recommendation from a friend who has been vaping a while. Really not sure if I am doing something wrong or if it is just the style of clearomizer that is allowing this to happen. I am very careful about not getting the juice in the coil tip when filling. Is it common for these to not have a tight enough seal that the juice leaks in a bit? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Thanks!!!!

I do know on those style tanks the little chrome cap at the top will become loose if you over tighten the mouthpiece.
Which will leave a gap on the seal and cause juice to find its way inside.

Grab a mini Vivi Nova and a ego sleeve for it. You won't be disappointed :2cool:

Hmmmmm you could try to pick up a Ego Twist so you can adjust your voltage
Correct me if i'm wrong Vapors... Isn't throat Hit mostly in the juice?

Keep plugging away you'll find your happy place eventually ...Vape On!!

Well I have tried the exact same juice (from the same bottle even) in both the CE4 as well as the EVOD and it was just super weak on the EVOD. I did also get a Mini Vivi Nova and not digging it, but not sure why yet....I will keep trying it and let you know....

I used many CE4s (Vision V2) before the CE5s (Vision V3) came out. Make sure your drip tip is squarely on top of the silicon cap that fits over the atomizer. The CE4 tanks are press fitted into the metal bottom that screws into the battery. Sometimes, it works loose on on one side (mine did that from being in my pants pocket) When that happens, the drip tip is off center and you can suck the juice right into your mouth. (trying my best to keep this G here ... ;-)~ ) Anyway sometimes you can fix that problem by pressing the tank between your thumb and finger until you feel it pop back in. Just a thought.

Also, most CE4s will eventually leak and you will have to toss them. They are not rebuild-able. If you like draw and hit of the CE4. You should try the CE5s. They are rebuild-able and a vast improvement over the CE4s ... Just make sure they are genuine Visions. Good luck.

I have no clue what an RBA is or what dripping means....been vaping just about a month....I want minimal aggrivation and a good vape...I love the idea of clearos and tanks just not one that has made me happy yet!

Thanks for this tip! I will look into trying a CE5 next, CEs all around seem to get a bad rep on here, I have only found a small handful of people on here that actually like them. I can totally see how that cap can become crooked too....that is probably a big part of my issue.

Oh and thanks for keeping it rated G :p

Well this is EXACTLY what I am doing right now, but would like to avoid the hassle!!! ;)

When I get juice in my mouth this is the procedure:

1- Go to fridge and grab 1 bottle of ice cold Dos Equis
2- Open bottle and pour generous amount into mouth
3- Swallow
4- Have a vape
5- Repeat until bottle is empty

Hope this helps :)

Hm... like this: SmokTek eGo 1100 CE4-Changeable Coil Clearomizer E-Cigarette Kit with carry case? I mean as in that's what your set up looks like?

If so, yeah, I run into that a bit here and there. First thing is unscrew the clearo and see if the battery tip is wet. No matter how hard you try, you're going to get some juice down the vent hole once in a while. Doesn't have to be much to be irritating. If the battery tip is damp, grab the tissues, wipe everything and gently (and carefully) blow into the mouth piece while holding the base of the clearo in tissue. Be careful not to blow really hard. I managed to blow a bit of juice (just a little fortunately) right into my fool eye once. It was Not Fun. I blew hard and my hand was cupped around the bottom of the clearo and deflected the stream of air into my face. Yay.

But 99% of the time, if I get a gurgle, it's condensation in the mouthpiece. When I get a gurgle, I hold the base of the clearo (still on the battery), tilt the whole thing a bit, unscrew the mouthpiece then pull it back a bit. Most times, a bit of juice trickles right off the rubber cap on the head.

I think it condenses while you're vaping. If you look into the mouthpiece after an inhale, you'll see some of the vapor stays inside the mouthpiece. My bet is it condenses in the mouthpiece, building up a bit over time. I've just fallen into the habit of undoing the mouthpiece to let the build up run back into the clearo at the first sign of "gurgle".

Do watch the head. You can gradually unscrew it by turning the mouthpiece too much. Then it's a whole, annoying chore of pouring the juice out, taking the clearo apart, redoing everything... bleah. :)

No problem. Hope it helps. I must admit, until the CE5s, there were lots of issues. I have been using V3s (CE5) for about six months now with no major issues. They are easy to clean and replacement heads are cheap. I also have two Vivi Nova minis and a Protank.
The protank takes some getting use too. Its a great vape as long as its full. Mine leaks on my bats if I let it go down past a half.

The Vision V3's are my go to for consistency and ease of use. They also have a little tighter draw (more like a cig) and warmer throat hit than the Vivi Novas or Protanks. Google Vision V3s and make sure they are genuine Vision cause there are a lot of CE5 style knock offs that do not perform as well. Good Luck!!

Same as above, only after bottle is empty, return to fridge!

Also, you may want to try a good carto tank with LR Boges. Just don't give up!!
