So for some darn reason the tank atty DOES NOT work with my t-Rex battery!!!!!
I took the tank atty and hooked it up to my 510 mega battery, it works, so I guess the bettery is too recessed or something!
Damn this is sooooooooo frustrating.
My only thought is to try a small piece of aluminum foil to see if that completes the distance.
Any one elses thoughts/ideas/advice/experience would be greatly appreciated.
On the plus side, I am liking it so far, it's kinda a cooler VAPE, and thus ALOT more flavor then just normal vaping with a cart.

You'll like it very much, Pneathery. I did. :)

Just allow yourself a learning curve of a couple of days. When taking a draw, you really do need to make sure you give the battery a second to heat before you start drawing. The draw itself is different, the taste is different, and it's easier to flood your atty. If it does flood, it's easily fixed. Blow it out from the battery end whilst holding some paper toweling against the other end, swipe off the battery contact because that tends to get some juice on it, too, then try again. Like anything else, once you get into the routine, it's great vaping item! Enjoy! :)

Editing to add: Before you blow out the atty, do make sure to take the tank mouthpiece out of the atty. LOL!

Rosa, thanks for the link! I don't know if I'm going to spend the four bucks right now on it. I'll just keep on with the piece of aluminum foil the size of a grain of rice :) at least till it starts to drive me crazy by moving over just enough to cause the battery to short out.
I did end up ordering 2 Joye Ego-T kits from iVape.net someone on here posted a site where you could find local VAPE shops, and it turns out that were pretty much in the same town (I live on the south end of the Myrtle Beach area, and he is up at the north end, right on the North Carolina border). I couldn't believe his prices on the tank kit though. I would gladly wait the week it takes to ship from liberty flights, but iVape is selling the kit for $59! I couldn't believe it, and he actually had quite a few in stock at that price. After I got the T-Rex working right (I did spend a good 15 minutes blowing out the Atty, then dripping some low mg juice through the battery end, and blowing that out, and repeating that step about 10 times to get all of the primer juice out) I let my wife try it, and explained the benefits of NEVER having to walk around with little squares of TP to constantly be wiping up the drips from overfilling it, and she said she wanted one too. So I ordered two kits from that guy, I hope since he is so close that I get them tomorrow!
Toulouse, about the juice, it's not bad especially for the price. I usually order half PG, and the other half VG, and mix myself in another container. I do have this one gripe so far. ALL of the VG bottles are only 3/4 full. I haven't called them up to talk to them about it yet, but I took pics to send to him, front and back, so he can see which ones I was shorted on.
Other then that. I have no complaints so far. All that I've tried so far is his "Cool" blend (I bought 3 bottles of that at 36mg strength) and his RY4. this is my first RY4 that I've had, so I can't tell you if it's like any others.
However I can say this. I am trying to VAPE the RY4 right now, and discovered that the tank system DOEA NOT like to wick straight VG! At least it can't keep up with me, so I have to remix this current cart that I'm using.
This tank system has allowed me to see exactly how much I do VAPE though. It's quite an eye opener. I'm working on my 4th full cart since I started this thread. That seems to be more then I thought I vaped, and two of those were at 36mg!
But as I said, I am quite happy with the quality of the juice, ESPECIALLY for seven bucks a 30ml.
It was either order from him, or MadVapes (they have the same prices, except I hear a lot more good things about MadVapes) but mist-stix was the only one out of the two that had 36mg, so he got my whole order.

Don't think that the amount of juice you're going through with the tank is the same as what you were using before:) I normally use 3-5ml/day. But, I got the tank in a few days ago and went through 1ml in about an hour. It definitely uses up the juices quicker than other methods. If I were to switch to it all day, I'd probably be going through 7-10ml/day.

They had a deal on one called "strong mint" it was $5.95 for 30ml. I ordered 2 of those, it tastes kinda like wrigleys spearmint. Its got a little bit of a sweet taste. I like that.
I finally tried some of the others too.
The honey actually tastes like honey, I was blown away.
Their chocolate tastes like cocoa powder, good flavor, but not at all sweet. (I like to mix chocolate with mint/menthol for a good taste)
Their menthol I got in 36mg, and it is kinda weaker then others menthol. I usually take a menthol juice and cut it 50/50 with a tobacco juice for a really good flavor. When I tried that, I totally lost all menthol flavor. Actually now that I think about it, their menthol tastes likenwhat I normally mix myself. It tastes like my 50/50 mix of tobacco/menthol juice.
My wife wanted peanut butter, so I got it for her, personally I think it tastes like dirt. Literally the most earthy flavor I've ever tried. She is curently vaping peanut butter/chocolate/honey and quite enjoying it.
The dirt flavor was still present for me. She is only two days off of analogs, so her taste buds are shot, I've been giving her other nasty flavors to get rid of them (like cheesecake, tastes like burnt plastic that's from someone else)
I have yet to try their red bull, it smells like robotussin. (I mis understood a friend who let me VAPE her daily VAPE, she meant cherry cola, but said red cola which took as red bull, y'all wish me luck on that one)

I know that this turned into a review, and that there is a place for the reviews on the site, and that I'm in the wrong place for that, but two people had asked......so I was just answering them.
I prop ably should do one over in the review section, mainly because I could not find anything on mist-stix that was recent.
Thanks for yalls patience, and sorry that I am ALWAYS so long winded ;-)

No problem, I'm selfish though. I waited till I could talk the Mrs into us ordering two of them before I told anybody about the price. Everyone else ive seen at that price was sold out by the time I found them. I figured the same thing would happen to iVape after I talked about my find here. I think you're the third person vie heard from that has ordered one from them.
