I finally decided to jump on e-smoking bandwagon. I zeroed on EGO Tank USB XL version from Janty. As i understand tank version isn't as reliable, but it's on sale. So i'm thinking maybe i could buy different attachments and have both versions ( guess the other is drip version that is using cartomizers, carts, cartriges (confusing)??). So my question what accessories should i get so i could try both types of esmoking. Is atomizer the same for both versions or different? It just not clear from the site. Or maybe i'm worrying too much and tank version is quite reliable especially if I'm strictly menthol smoker so i don't plan mixing flavors - maybe different menthol types? Tank sounds very good on paper, but maybe in reality it's not worth it and i should stick with regular version? So that is my dilemma.

In any case another question that is not covered by faq's and newbie guides - how much e-juice does one normally use? 10ml lasts for how long? I'd like to buy some juice to last me at least a month or so - i'm planning to buy high nicotine content and low nicotine content juice and adjust to the level i need as i go.

Maybe you have some other ideas. Keep in mind i'm from Lithuania, so EU shop is preferable.

The eGo Tank (eGo-T) uses the special tank and atomizer, but it's all on the 510 fitting, so you could definitely buy other 510 cartomizers, atomizers, etc, and use it with the battery for your eGo-T. Cartridges (carts) aren't used for dripping -- they store the ejuice in a filler material which is drawn out by the atomizer. Cartomizers are just combination cartridge/atomizer in one piece. If you only want to drip and want to try methods besides the tank, you'd really only need a standard (or Low Resistance -- LR) 510 atomizer and maybe a drip-tip to make it easier.

I was a pack-a-day smoker and I go through about 2 ML of juice per day, mostly dripping.

...to go along with the unit you have, get some low resistance Boge 2ohm cartos(attomizer and cartridge in one unit)...drip tips make a good mouth piece for these...if you want to try dripping(dripping directly on an atomizer) get some LR versions of those as well...you will need a drip tip for those.....................

p.s. liberty-flights.co.uk and jacvapour.com are only a couple the EU based vendors out there........mj

Thats the problem i don't know yet what i need. I've never even held e-cig in my hands. I want something reasonably reliable and practical. I understand that eventually i'll have to move to some servicable mods, but at the moment i think EGO should be sufficient at least for a few months of experimentation. Tank route sounds very appealing since it sounds like you just smoke and fill tank from time to time with juice while having passthrough power from usb. How many tanks and atomizers or other spare parts do i need or kit has everything i need for at least a month or two

so to try dripping i have to buy these and put on the battery?

Since the unit you got is the tank version other accessories I would get is a couple of extra tank atomizers. I would definately get the type B as they seem to work a lot better than the type A and hold quite a bit more juice. A couple of extra batteries might be a good thing too. I dont know if you got a wall adaptor with your kit but if not I would invest in one. Other things to consider would be some duel coil cartmizers. I use them and they are great. Get some drip tips(510) Also another nifty thing to get would be a syringe for filling your cartomizers if you decide to get them. A syringe to me is a whole lot easier way to fill them
 
I like the ego batteries, but I use the 510 carts after reading reviews with the ego tanks.. I usually carry around a few prefilled carts in my pocket, use about 3-5 a day, and just pop one in when one is empty. I love them! Great vapor, taste is better than reg. carts. It does seem like I'm going through more juice, but as long as it makes me not buy cigs, I'm happy!

After watching a few more videos i placed my order for Ego tank XL version from janty and regular atomizers, drop tips and other accessories from health cabin. I figured i'll smoke tank for a few weeks until health cabin order comes in and then try other methods. So i'll try all three methods except cartomizer method which seems most complicated in terms of refilling.

Hopefully i'll have e-cig in my hands by monday.

My total from janty was just over 100 euros and my order from hc was a little over $30. So if it works out it will pay for itself in couple months.

I bought 80ml of juice from janty. It's pricey, but i figured it should last me at least a month
