Okay, So I have a Blu Premium Pack with 2 extra batteries... 4 Joye 510e's ...I make my own juice now... I swore I wouldn't want a tank... but turns out...Science prevailed. I need a tank. I need a bigger juice box...cause I am some thirsty.

I hear good things about the Ego's. I am leaning toward an Ego-C, the new guy from Joyetech. I would also like to know if it is possible to tank one of those little fellows. I am not sure if they are even on the market anywhere yet.

I don't handle high amounts of vapor well. I have to modify my inhale technique on the Blu even because I choke out pretty easily. I am not looking particularly for huge vapor, though I am not against it. I use VG only because I have serious problems with PG, and not the kind that are in your head. I struggle to breathe after inhaling PG, it feels like when I get stung by bee's so I don't even dabble in that zoo. I have heard that some tanks and attys don't appreciate a pure VG mix, all though I have thinned mine with water, vodka...what ever works with the flavor I am using.

The basic issue is this... I want to go to the new EGO as soon as it is available, and I am curious about tanks. I am growing up from mini ecigs... I want to have something bigger for home use, help a waif get a clue...

...the tanks you are talking about look good on paper but the implementation leaves a lot to be desired...lots of folks use 'em but just as many have been disappointed at having deal with muted flavs/TH/Vapor not mention issues with leaking and wicking juice properly causing burning taste...these issues can be dealt with BUT you will havvta fiddle with your gear to get the best out of it...for fiddle free vaping, head on over to Crystal Clear Vaping and pick up a bundle(15) of Boge2.0(LR) or Resurrectors...with them you get 2 drip tips, a syringe and free shipping...these cartos are available at many other vendors as well...............

Probably help to be clear about tanks

There are the Ego-T and Ego-C types of tanks that use an atomizer - The C is new but many who buy the T end up switching to cartomizers which are what most people use for everyday vaping

Then there are carto tanks. One kind with what seems to be decreasing popularity are the ones that use wick/coil guts from a CE2 cartomizer. The kind with increasing popularity are the ones that take and entire steel Boge (or dual coil carto, depending on the tank) that has been punched or slotted in its sidewall (purchased that way or DIY). The carto goes down through the middle of the tank and is surrounded by eliquid. I think some people do manage to use thinned VG in these. There seems to be a bit of a learning curve to learn to not do things that will make them leak but many seem happy with them.

Example of one kind of carto tank - filling tutorial photos

Re PG - Nicotine is very harsh and irritating in 100% PG but have you tried blends like 50/50? And even high PG blends are much less irritating than 100% PG. What level nicotine are you using?

None of the above comments have used the Ego "C".. Night and Day difference, in comparing to the "T" system.
I am a heavy vapor, and the "C" w/ the LR Atty's has been WONDERFUL! Great throat hit, vapor production, and the flavor has been first rate.

I DD'd for 3 years..

Cleaning the Atty's is a no brainer also, compared to the "T" Atty's that are built into the cones.

There are some Ego "C" threads over in the Ego forum, where you can read for yourself, and ask questions. BUT, don't let other's influence your decisions, that haven't tried the product in real life? :)
