Yup, it doesnt like dark sweet flavors, I got one tank though of German Chocolate cake from Tasty Vapor and it gummed it up and started tasting badly burnt.
Dang, its my favorite.
I did an overnight soak in 98% isopropyl alcohol and forcefully squirted alcohol into the battery side hole and at the wick stem. 8 hour dry and half a tank of clear (backwoods brew peach) and it started tasting okay again.
BTW, these need much bigger tanks

Thought I'd chime ine..
An eGo puts out around 3.2V even on a full battery after its PWM has stabilised to about an 85% duty.
Equates to a 75% power increase at 4.1V.
Have you seen the Map Tanks at COV... I have a eGo t and a map... I haven't touched my eGo T since I recieved my Map
Mine arrived half an hour ago from mikeandcarolsstore.com $60 for the 2 batt.,2 atty,5 tanks/mouth pieces and charger,manual etc... After the initial new atty taste went away my coffee flavored juice has never tasted so good! This thing rocks.Got a low resistance atty on the way but the way this vapes with the standard one tells me it can't get any better.Realy nice thick vapor with a 30%pg/70%vg mix. These folks also shipped fast.Ordered it last weekend,it shipped Mon. and I'm using it right now,Wed. Almost looking forward to the 90 minute commute tomorrow morning...almost.
I just got my atty tank today and if you switch flavors on the carts and click the new cart it into the atty, do you still taste the different juice that was in it before the new flavor? Anyone know the lifespan on the attomizers yet?
No more vapor than the ego mega carto I'm using tbh. I can't understand those ppl hyping this as 'good as dripping' and producing 'massive clouds.'
Plus the plastic tanks cool the vapor, so th is not great evenon my strongest 18mg juice. it is there, but is not as strong as when you drip and is same as with cartomizer for me.
I saw the vid from tw when he first got them and tbh the vape production on mine is better than that, but not by a huge deal. On the most recent vid where the poster introduces the wicking spike mod, I saw the huge cloud he got and was like 'man how the heck did he manage that because my 3 attys do not vape like that on any juice i've tried and nor do the ones in the 2 janty stores I go to.
Not trying to dissuade anyone from trying them, just giving my honest opinion based on having this set up since December 21st.

All my new eGO batts are putting out 3.5v even under load to the atty.
revolver - I think this great post by mwa is what you were looking for. If not.... my bad

How does the needle stem fit back into the tank if you have this E2 wick going through the same hole?
I desperate to get my ego-T's to work because I love the looks and feel of these things, but so far I'm not getting any flavor.
Excellent post! Thank you!
So from what I gather from your post is that the wire mesh around the coil cup could possibly be holding primer even after giving them a bath in alcohol and that is causing our flavored juice to not wick into the coil area thus little or no flavor. Is that correct?
Last night I pulled the needle plate off and the wick stuck to the atty. I carefully stuck it back into the needle hole and have it setting almost flush to the top of the lower angled edge of the needle but it didn't help at all. No flavor and a slight plastic taste still.
I just took a piece of the wicking material from a CE2 made a little loop and put it inside the tank with about 3/8 of an inch sticking out, I used about an 1-1/2 total length piece, looped it twisted the end threaded it through the cap while off, stuck the loop inside the full tank and put the lid back on with that 3/8 of a piece sticking out, wet it with juice and the loop inside the tank is soaked up well, the piece sticking out of the tank is wet as well, now I put the tank on and push it on like this. This seems to be working and working well, it is insuring that liquid is soaking the wick and the metal pin coming up inside the tank is always drench with liquid. Kind of doesn't make sense since the pin is supposed to sit in the liquid but its working and working well. I would suggest it as a mod for these Ego tanks

Junky -Good news for my eGoTs. My non leaker good one is beginning to develop flavor so I have had to stop vaping my nonfavorites because I don't like them. Not full flavor but I can now tell what I am vaping.
On my dissected eGoT I have been dripping.
When I drip directly on the atomizer and stove pipe it, I get great flavor.
WHen I drip on the atomizer and use the empty whistle tip (no needle plate or wick in there) I get muted/cooled good flavor. Whistle tip chambers really cool it down. I suppose it is designed with one to control air flow.
When I drip into the mesh holding area from the sides it was spilling out after 2 drops and vapor was good but almost no flavor. I discovered the mesh holding area around the white atomizer dish is still very full of primer of some sort. Blowing it out would never reach that area since the air flows above the mesh. After a good Vodka (Absolut, nothing but the best for my atty) soak, it now holds 4-5 drops without spilling out and flavor is comparable to dripping directly on the atomizer. I think it is now finally wicking through the wicks wrapped by the coil. The color change in the photo below verifies that, since in my last one the wick was still white and coated with something clear.
My dissected atomizer is finally breaking in and I assume my good one also looks something like this. Isn't she a beauty?
See photoView attachment 29498
I also took some photos to show that not lining up the flat sides of the plastic tank to the flat sides of the needle plate does in fact restrict airflow. The system shouldn't let you put them in the wrong direction, especially since it is a suction wicking system. I hope they fix this at some point, so I don't need reading glasses to load a pre-filled tank.
Constricting airflow to the lower chamber could lead to a hotter atty and put undo pressure on the plastic tank junctions in the top half. There will be some airflow, just not as much if you see how wide the rim is that holds up the needle plate and how much the cap overlaps the flat sides.
First photo shows how small the air slits are on the side of my good unadultered eGoT, the second with the cap on the needle plate the right way, and lastly the wrong way. This needle plate is from the bottom and it is missing the wick.

Just thought I'd share how happy I am my eGoTs are developing some flavor. It will probably never be the best flavor ever, but looking pretty promising it will be good enough on the go.
Have faith fellow flavorless vapers, it's coming.......

Im all over the dam place with these tank Attys trying all sorts of different things to get them to work better, I was putting a piece of the E2 wick in the tank and leaving a small piece hang out through the small hole in the tank and jamming the tank right down on the atty pin, it was working for me but since I have taken it out, and finding there working better without now, sorry for the confusion but like I said I was and still am trying every dam method I can think of to try and mod them for the best performance, so far the stock way is working best now for me, I swear there gonna improve these with in a month as well as come out with a 3-5ml tank and this may improve the liquid flow to the Atty just a bit as well, not sure but something needs to happen to make these better then what they are, dripping and bottom feeders still rule for me
Thanks, did not want to beat a dead horse, but I looked back alot of post and missed it. Thanks again.

I was dripping into the mesh circle from the edges and getting vapor but no flavor and it overflowed at 2 drops. The wick wrapped in the coil seemed to be still delivering primer. After the vodka bath and good shaking, it could hold 4-5 drops and the flavor was coming through. Not great flavor, but not flavorless and I could distinguish flavors which I couldn't before. I assume it was primer, and my attys did have a lot of it initially.
With the needle plate out, drip directly on the atty and tail pipe it, you get normal 510 atty dripping flavor. Then drip again, put on an empty tank and inhale through the whistle tip, huge difference in flavor and cooler vape. That's the best you'll ever get from the current system, even working 100% right.
I don't get the plastic taste except what is coming directly from air flow through the cheap plastic tank chambers. Was your atty dish melted or something? That's the only plastic in there.

I still say look for an improvement on these things or else they go bye bye, like bigger tank something like 3-5 ml's of liquid, bigger center pin in Atty for juice delivery to improve, and maybe one or two other things I see that could vastly improve these Atty/tank set ups, all in all I think it is probably in the works and these where all released for them to take some money back in they have spent in design and tooling up gear to make this system, I say after the Chinese new year + 1 month we see a change for the better I give myself 2 weeks plus or minus on my prediction, I don't know this for sure but I have to think this
Totally agree. I can think of 3-4 things to improve in the plastic tanks alone. I predict a better made, slightly more expensive version that will virtually last forever. Better gasket, better tip, possibly stainless steel parts, and some sort of shut off valve. When a tank is on the atomizer, it is virtually and open system. It can and will leak out either through the tip or battery hole eventually if you leave it long enough. No way I'd stick this in my suit pocket and forget about it.
THESE THINGS LEAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Juices are coming out of the bottom of the atomizer

Here is a quick video with a volt meter to see the loaded voltage with a Tank on a 5 volt 2 amp USB power Hub. Loaded voltage drops to 4.1 to 4.2 range. I actually like it a bit higher 4.37 on my variable card hits the sweet spot for me.
