Joye 510-T starter kit cartridge confusion

[seabass242]

Hello,

I bought a 510-T for my wife to help her quit smoking.

The starter kit seems to come with two different types of cartridges. There are clear plastic ones that I can see the liquid(pre-filled as well), and snap in to place via a hole being punched in to the top when you attach to the atomizer.

Alternately, there are solid black cartridges with a wide open end that would go in to the atomizer. Are those for foam only? Should I stick with the clear cartridges and fill with syringe?

I guess I am basically confused as to why I got two different types of cartridge, and which would I be better off using?

Thanks you in advance for any help you can provide.

There are several devices you can use on your ego battery-

The tank which you have (clear plastic) that fits on your atomizer and is placed on your battery
Cartridge (hollow device with a rectangle of filling) that you fill with juice and place on your atomizers
Cartomizers (boge, 510, dual coil, echo-e, clearomizers) This is the cartridge with a built in atomizer
Just an atomizer and you drip juice onto the bridge of the atomizer. This is called dripping.

I filled the tanks with a syringe. I found it faster but you could pry the top off and fill it that way.

My personal preference is a cartomizer. Very easy to use. They are disposable but you can refill it many times.

I don't think one is 'better' than the other. Some people like the vape better dripping or using carts/atty. Downside is it doesn't hold as much juice so you have to keep dripping/refilling.

Tanks, sometimes there are issues with leaks or dry hits. If not they're great. Some adjustment and fooling with it may be required. Many say flavor is muted. I vape menthol and actually liked the cooler, smoother vape. I didn't like the adjustments and cleaning.

Cartomizers are disposable. But they hold a lot of juice. The boge cartomizer holds 1 ml (less than a tank, but more that a cartridge). There are several 'big' cartomizers on the market that hold a lot of juice.

When I got my Tornado-T it came with two "blank" tanks they where solid black and no cap at the end.
The clear tanks came with caps installed I just had to pull them off and fill them up. The instructions that came with my kit said the sold black "blanks" where for shipping purposes and not to be used.

Here's a video review by a guy named Scott on a 510-T kit and he shows the clear tanks, unfortunately not the sold black tanks. - > REVIEW OF THE 510 TANK ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE - YouTube

Hope that helps ya out a bit.

Most atomizers come with a dummy empty normal cartridge attached to protect the bridge. Is that what you have? You cannot use normal cartridges on a tank atty.

And warning - specifically 510-T chargers and 510-T batteries might be reverse polarity from standard 510 and Ego batteries. So never charge the 510 T batteries on any 510-threaded cable but their own, and never charge any non-T 510 batteries on the 510-T cable.

I am not a tank person so I can't help you with those. I prefer Boge standard resistance cartomizers. They have limited lifespan or good performance (a week or more with thin clear juice) but they hold twice as much juice as 510-T tanks, no atomizers to clean, every flavor is separate. I only use an atomizer to test juices.
