Just got my first tank! Ego C Type B Upgrade model first impressions

[yamahaman83]

Woo hoo! Moved from the classic Joye 510's to this tank system via Cignot, and personally I am thoroughly pleased so far. Mind this is only day 2, lol, but the throat hit and vapor production is PERFECT! By far a great E-cig to hold onto for awhile. The only issue I had with it was a small amount of juice seeping through the mouthpiece, yet after a bit of research I found out that when the tank has 10% or less juice, it is recommended to refill due to the lack of pressure keeping it inside.

Any others have opinions when first trying out the Ego C?

Noticed nobody has responded, maybe because some confusion about what you bought. It must be the type B eGo tank and an eGo battery ?

If so, that's what I use and I'm very happy with it !

Suggest you get a $2 syringe to fill the tank (14 guage needle) so you don't have to keep taking the cover off and possibly causing leaking. If it leaks, try replacing the little cover. They're only 50 cents or so when you buy 5.

Otherwise, they're great. No more taste of cotton , they go a long time without filling, and look good.

You can further improve by using a LR atty for more vapor, and/or getting a Twist battery.

Good luck !

Problem with this stuff is, you never know what your gunna get. Let me explain:
Ive gotten ego t's that work flawless.
Ive gotten ego t's that do nothing but leak and flood.
Ive gotten ego c's that work awesome, but the draw is so tight I cant tighten down the bottom cap like I should.

I love the ego-t, and the ego-c. They have a special place because that was my first And the taste is just great. Super better then a carto. BUT, some people get bad ones that would never work right without knowing alot about them. They are unforgiving, but if you get a good one then your set. I used mine for 1.5 months only cleaning once a week.

All you can do from here if you wanna keep the same taste is getting a 5pack of the Atty Heads, maybe a VIVI Nova v2, and maybe a 510 LR atomizer for dripping and a drip tip. Thats what I use to drip ... Others probably know of better.
Of course thats all optional. I would recommend all of it though lol. You need backups and backups. That low res atty for dripping is awesome. Its like smoking a fast car

I see your from methford My best friend from Army was from there. Two of them actually.

Hey Yamaha,

I'm an all day chain vaper with an eGo C Type B Twist and I love it. The only negatives I've experienced was 1) vaping through the primer fluid that was in the atomizer from the factory...yuk!!...now I know I can blow/clean it out 2) having to repeatedly clean the battery post and atomizer tube, and 3) some leaking through the button when it's too hot. Otherwise a great vape and a great intermediary step between joye cig-types with boge cartos and a Silver Bullet (or similar) and a Genesis atomizer tank (or similar)

I've not had the experience that our friend above(teamscon) has had. My 900 maH Twist failed after a month, but Vicky from Cignot replaced it. Hey...I'm satisfied.

Keep on vaping!!

Go tmy ego-c twist battery use it with Type B LR atomizer 2.0 ohms (Thats what the retailer told me). They are two ohms atomizers my question is is that LR or standard. i was of the impression 1.8 ohms is LR atomizer. Anyways after consulting the "Safe Vaping Chart". Imageshack - unled66.jpg i put it to 4.5 volts on my twist the first toot was burnt, i mean really burnt but 4.5 is supposed to be in the green zone and it gets really hot after 2 -3 toots at 4.0 can anyone tell me what could have been the reason. I really dont want to burn my atomizer, any suggestions would be fine.

Hey guys- Wanted to give my opiion on a couple o things.
With this setup there are a couple of issues that are gonna be consistent.
1- leakage= its a gravity fed atomizer and its gonna overfill at times. The condensation buildup (unavoidable with vapor) is going to add to that especially because the airflow is from the bottom and the surfaces to which the codensation clings are so close to the airflow (atty head unit)You should blow the atty heads out once every couple of days. I also recommend removing the tank when not in use.
2- Dry hits/burning taste= after # 1's explanation, you wouldn't expect it to dry out but it does if you don't allow a sec or two after firing for the liquid to wick to the atomizer. The system is not an entirely enclosed one but there is a slight vaccum that you need to let work. Letting off the fire button a sec before you stop pulling your hit helps. If its a new atty head then I suggest blowing out the primed liquid(yuck) and adding a drop of your own liquid to the spike to reprime. Give it a sec to soak in. It's also a good idea to give it a couple of nonfired pulls once the tank is in place.
Leaking can also occur if the seal at the spike/cap is compromised. The original cap is hard plastic and the seal compromises after you remove the tank the first time. I recommend the soft caps (sold seperately) and you may want to prepunch a hole by pressing one out instead of spiking it because the soft membrane is what creates the seal and you dont want to tear it. I use the needle post from those needle top fill bottles to prepress.

@Lycanfurry-I find this chart to be more accurate

Hope this helps someone!
