LR Ego T Atty's

[mwa102464]

Just got my new LR Ego tank Atty's today, so far so good, no leaking, no bad taste, and only putting out good vapor and taste. I'm getting a bit more TH out of these also it seems than the Regulars and a warmer vapor of course with the lower resistance. Anyway just thought I would post since I have seen many that have had these and posted yet. The flavor is much better as well on these LR 1.7 ohm Atty's than the reg 2.2ohm ones

yes same thing here just great so far a notch better than the reg ego-t's

Same results here, but I have only had mine a few hrs.. I hope it lasts for a couple of weeks. I'm very careful not to overheat it. It does seem to be an improvement over the standard atty.. No leaks, and a better throat hit. I can't say about the flavor as I am using a new one that I have never used before. My biggest interest is "throat hit". rsmith76

Where are the LR tank atty's being sold? I didn't want to get regular resistance ones because I only use LR's, so I've been holding off waiting for the LR's tank atty's to make their appearance.

That's what I was waiting for, too. Apparently, Totally Wicked is carrying them. I bought some yesterday, so now the waiting begins.

I bought a couple from TW and they showed up yesterday. On mine there was a minimal amount of primer. After only two no-inhale hits I was smelling my juice's flavor, so I started vaping. The vapor was slightly warmer, vapor production was slightly increased, but the big difference I noticed was in the flavor. There was a big step up in flavor.

I continued to use the LR and standard unit side by side for the rest of the day. The LR continued to out perform for the remainder of the day. This morning, same thing. SO, I'm liking them so far, but as others have said, they will only be worth it if they last a reasonable amount of time. Time will tell.

I measured the resistance and the LR came in at 1.8 ohms, compared to 2.2 ohms on a standard unit.

The only negative I found was the little devil head logo TW puts on it. Once everyone is selling them, I'll look elsewhere because of that. I was thinking I might put some black heat-shrink tubing on it and also on one of my beat-up looking eGo batts, that should look nice.

I won't order from them BECAUSE of their silly little devil logo. I can find what I need elsewhere.

 

[rsmith76]

I am not fond of the devil logo as well, but others may think it is cute. I have comptenplated painting it black, just to get rid of it. I did clean one of my tw attys in alcohol, and it stripped all the paint off, but the devil remained. Go figure, lol. Black heat sink tubing, as mentioned in an earlier post, sounds like a good idea to me. I can't see where this would hurt the atty., other than disturbing the paint from the heat to shrink the tubing. Might be able to use a hair dryer or a heat gun on it. rsmith76

I've not ordered from TW before, because, frankly, I've been around since the early days and never been fond of the way they treat customers with complaints. However, I could swear I have heard that there is a way to get the devil off.

It is a measure of my desperation to try a tank atty that I ordered from them this time.

 

[Scottbee]

Give it a few days and other vendors will have them without the TW branding.....

 

[rtbrjason]

I ordered from them as well though I don't like the idea of a logo. I've not received it yet but will be attempting to remove it. If I order another it will hopefully be a plain black branded free piece.

 

[cskent]

It seems like people are having a devil of a time removing the TW logo. If it bothers you can't you just paint over it or use some emery cloth to remove it? I'm just wondering.

 

[rtbrjason]

It wasn't a huge deal to me this time around as I just wanted to give this a shot and see if it's a solid means of replacing the poly fill which I don't like at all.

 

[Uncle Screwtape]

Just for grins, I did the heat-shrink thing to "Satan's Atty" and a beat-up eGo batt. It worked well. Thickens the whole thing up a bit, it will roll freely on my desk without the button hitting. It looks and feels OK.

It's kinda' like an eGo in a scuba suit.

I'll take a pic when I get home if I remember.

 

[Uncle Screwtape]

Here it is with the heat-shrink.

not the greatest pic quality, but you get the idea. No devils here.

That's a nice job, there! I'll have to remember that tip for if I get a scuffed up part or two. As for Canadians, it seems we won't have to worry about TW's devil logo. They charge $40 to ship to "the rest of the world" so I'll never be a customer. Oh well, we should have these attys up here soon so I can see what I think of 'em.

I'm encouraged by the comments re: improved taste, because I really am liking the T, but am wishing it had more flavor production.
