New EGO TANK system.

[mary_d]

Hmmm....I am wondering if TW honestly was sent a bad batch or 1st production run. I have been using one atty from Cignot the past 2 days and have not had the issues like I have had with my TW atties.

Upon doing some brief research around the forums it seems that most of the people who are having issues are using the TW atties.

I will let everyone know if the Cignot atty has the same problems as well, but so far so good!!

I wonder the same thing because mine from TW is just awful. No matter how I clean it or use it the darn thing still taste nasty and hardly any flavor or vapor . I ordered 3 from LF and hoping they do better.

This is more of a tips and tricks, plus review guide.

Here is my 24 hour review after ordering these from (Cloudsofvapor)....they are not branded in anyway, and are just the straight Joye Ego-T - They do not have the 5 click on/off option, and again, have no branding on them what-so-ever. I'm fairly certain they still have a warranty, but if not....cloudsofvapor will honor the return policy.

Anyway, I use a reoGrand - with 2.0 ohm 306 for most of the day. It's a bottom feeder and I will include a picture for those of you that have just started to vape. I've been vaping for 2 years, and havent been able to find anything to help me kick the analogs until I found the custom reoGrand box mod...I sold everything else, and got rid of all the tornado batteries, cones, carts, and cartomizers because i was finally able to stop smoking by using the reoGrand. I think I finally found a nice piece that I can use on the go when I don't want to lug around a 2lb box made of aircraft aluminum.

Anyway...back to the ego-T.
I must say, i was surprised...It's at 2.2 ohm, which is a smart choice because 2.5ohm on a 3.2 tornado is not a very warm or good tasting vape. It's "ok" at best and will not produce the vapor or taste that we as a society desire. So 2.2 ohm is great when using it on the 3.2-3.4v tornado (some vendors state the tornado battery is 3.7v device, but it is not...it's under-volted at 3.4-3.2v.

Since it's 2.2 ohm, I enjoy the vape..I havent had any harshness or burnt taste, and the only time I do is when i leave it on it's side for a while and pick it up and vape right away for the first time in a half hour...I hold it vertical, and prime the atty a little bit by taking short puffs.

I've also just gotten a dropper and just put a drop of liquid right on the wick and then place the tank bank...that seems to kickstart the feed and gives you a nice few drags of strong vape until you go back to normal operation. I also do that in the morning if i feel like having a strong menthol taste.

I'm not sure how or why the 4 quick puffs came to play here, because that will do nothing to the wick at all. If you take the tank out, and put it in your mouth and take 4 sharp puffs...no liquid comes out...there are air pockets integrated into the mouth piece so that you get maximum airflow...so the 4 quick puff trick does not work since you're not pushing juice to the wick, and you're not opening the hole at all. Try it with the tank out, and you'll see what i mean, take 4 puffs, hell...take 20 puffs....no liquid will come out, and thats the way it was designed...so I don't even bother with that...what I do instead is HIT the button and vape 4 quick puffs, that gets the wick hot which will absorb more juice...that works 100x better than the 4 quick puff mcgraw action without hitting the button. No disrespect to whoever said that was an option, but my testing shows that it does absolutely nothing ?

When it's been left overnight, I pop off tank, put 2 drops of menthol or any juice right on the wick, put tank back, take a few slow, but long vapes. that kick starts the atty nicely, and also can give you a nice a mix if you decide to put a few menthol drops on the wick, while tobacco is in the tank. It gives you a nice 10 hits of good mixture until the wick is clear of your direct dripping and starts to wick from the tank again (i hope that made sense, i'm still half asleep)

I use 90/10 or 80/20 Halo juice only ,thats my all day vape....all flavors, I've tried them all and I'm sticking with them until I die

So far, i like it a lot...lots of vapor, it's constant, stable, i know i'm going to get a decent hit every time, and I know if i warm up the atty or prime it a little i'm going to get a cloud of vapor also. If you use the same tricks you used before, you'll be able to manipulate the ego-T to give you a nice warm vape every time. A cold atty will not produce the same vapor and taste as a nice warmed up one.

Also, please remember to give these 24 hours to break in, the primer oil is very strong and that could be giving you that burnt taste as there are pockets on the atty that the juice has not touched, but yet the primer remains...so you might be vaping primer instead of your great tasting juice. It should take about 24 hours for your atty to fully saturate.

One last thing ,I also have a small little box mod from madvapes (20 bucks) and it uses a true 3.7v battery instead of a 3.2v tornado. So when the 14500 battery is fully charged, you're looking at 4.0v, and when using it on the 2.2ohm Atty, it's a really nice vape...much nicer than when using a regular tornado battery. Take a look at the pic. I was able to get the atty to screw on by using 2 adapters. 901-510, then 510-901 to extend the connector and then i plugged it right in. i'm getting my more flavor and vapor but of course, now you have the drawback of the wick not getting enough juice because the higher voltage burns the juice faster....so i just make sure to keep it vertical, i make sure to keep the atty moist, and it's no problem for me.

I've been vaping it on the box mod, more than on the tornado battery because of taste and vapor production, but again...thats just personal preference .

I've included a pic so you can see how it looks. I just need to get a stealth adapter and the atty will sit flush against the box mod.

I hope this made any sense at all...

Also for the burnt taste folks, 20 min white vinegar soak, wash with warm water for 5 min, blow through atty till dry, let dry for an hour. Remember, these atties are wet all day with our liquid, they have a built in heater So you don't have to wait 24 hours....just put some drops directly on the wick and the water will evaporate and the eliquid will start to burn .

ON my LR's I usually do a 20 second dry burn until the coil is glowing red, then wash and repeat but those are 6.99$ and not $16.99 However, i have no DOUBT in my mind that these atties can take dryburns just like any LR or standard OHM atty, i just don't want to take the change at $16.99 a piece...

I've seen pictures of one taken apart.

It's a regular (mega) atty, it even has the wick bridge, above it is the plate that you see, and the wick that you see in the middle feeds or saturates and then wets the coil. If you take the plate off, with the wick, it's just a standard 2.2 mega atomizer. When you guys have one that dies on you ,just take it apart and you'll feel better in knowing that there is no magic here, it's just a plate with a wire mesh above a standard mega cone atty.

Sorry for the rambling. I'll shut up.

I have two atties from TW. I have used both, but one way more just cause of what it is installed on. Anyways.... I've been vapping about 4-5 carts a day on it. With using their Patriot Range E-Liquid pre-mixed.

This has been a DREAM for me over the past week using it.

On my SD it's fantastic! Never get a dry burn even though it hangs down around my neck. Feeds every last drop, and is a liquid hog, because I get a TON of vapor.

It's made 2 people throw up at work cause it hits so strong. Almost everyone did choke on it while trying it out.

I always get a good flavor also. I'm almost confused how these are not working for some people......

 

[ournature]

When my Cignot atties come in, I'll show a comparison between them and the Ovale atomizer- assuming there are any differences. If there aren't there's no point.

What I'd like to see is a side by side comparison if the TW, Ovale, and Joyetech versions. I'd tend to agree with you that the product has been revised.

yeah, there are 2 different official versions distributed right now for what i know, v1 and v2.
Joye makes them all and now they make v2 only as it's an update of the original design.
Ovale carries v2 for sure now (in europe at least), don't know about Cignot.
v2 has conized spike, you can clearly see the difference looking at the spikes of both versons.
with v2 they have also changed the tanks cartridge a bit, but i haven't see them yet as i've just got the atty.
v1 tanks are compatible with v2 atty though, i'm using that combination right now..

When you say "conized" what does this mean? Do you mean the end of the spike is cut at a 45 degree angle?

Do you have a camera with a Macro Setting? Could you possibly take some pics to show us the differences?

 

[CamelKicker]

I think he is saying that the spike has a conical shape (tapered wider at base and narrower towards the top--he mentioned this a couple pages back) as opposed to V1 being a "straight" cylindrical shape

UPDATE:

i tried version 2 of the ovale ego tank today.
I tried just one so far and I don't know if i picked up a very lucky one but it performs and wicks better than all of the 6 version 1 i have.
It wicks super 'wet' even with completely full tank.
The old version did get perfectly wet from half tank onward.

The needle is a little different from v1.
it's narrower at the top and gets wider at the bottom.

I think the conized needle shape makes the connection with the tank more tight,
so when you make a draw the juice is forced to wick down into the needle with more strenght.
It produce a huge amount of vapor.
Also the draw seems more tight than the old ones.

I don't know if the new version landed in US (i'm in Europe),
if you are in the States you might ask your supplier if they have the 2nd version.

I don't think that's it because that wouldnt provide any enhancement whatsoever over a V1. Unless he is saying the wicking is actually thicker since the conical tube is wider and then would hold more liquid...but he didnt mention that.

And they all have to be but at a 45 degree angle to pierce the cartridge, so it would have to be something else to distinguish between V1 and V2.

My supplier just got them in this week (saturday) and i ordered monday...so he has the most recent piece from Joy, and they don't have the conical shape pipe with wick .

Hey everyone, newbie to e-cigs here.

First of all I'd like to thank everyone for sharing there experiences with the Ego-T and similar here, with a special note to Cozzcon for the great yt vids. It was extremely helpful in the decision proses which PV to start with and very educational about the device itself reading them and watching them.

I just received my Ego-T starter kit today and I'm liking it so far. Real easy to fill and use and the clouds, yay!! I had already quit smoking a few weeks ago and after just a few hits of 11mg PG juice from Hangsen (desert ship is what it's called, apparently it's suppose to taste like Camel cigs) I started feeling a bit dizzy just like I use to get when I smoked a cigarette after going without one for a few days, I'll have to order some low dosage juice soon

But, since this is my first PV I'd like to check with you guys if I'm doing it right to make sure this wonderful little device works properly for as long as possible, therefore I have a few questions if you don't mind:

1. Is it true it's best to keep the unit standing upright when not in use/between uses to keep the atty wet?

2. Right now I start drawing immediately when I push the button, but keep on inhaling for a second or shorter after I release the button. Is that the right technique with this particular type of e-sig?

3. I've only tried one of my atty's so far, and it does whistle a little when hitting it like I've heard is normal with these, but it also slightly gurgles a little sometimes and when I haven't used for a little while it sometimes makes a popping sound at the beginning of the first draw, like there's a teeny tiny firecracker going off inside. It really doesn't sound to worrying to me, but is that normal? I hold my Ego in about a 45 degree downward angle when I use it.

Do mind that I'm still only halfway through my first tank though, perhaps it needs to be burned in a little more.

4. Blowing the atty out should be done from the end where you put in the tank on these, right?

5. How can I tell which atty is the one with warranty and which one is the other one?


I think that's all I can think of now

No, that is what he said here (I edited my original post to include the quote maybe you posted before I added it in...)

But here is the quote:

it's narrower at the top and gets wider at the bottom.

I think the conized needle shape makes the connection with the tank more tight,
so when you make a draw the juice is forced to wick down into the needle with more strenght.

[JuniorNA]

No, that is what he said here (I edited my original post to include the quote maybe you posted before I added it in...)

But here is the quote:

Yeah, i see that too...I think he means that since it's conized, the hole in the tank is held more tightly around the feed tube, so that makes it tighter, and less juice will leak down the side and it will be forced to go to the wick.

could be . but i don't think anyone has a v2

 

[CamelKicker]

That makes sense, but also (in theory) - if the wick takes up the entire cone at the base then the wider base of v2 could accomodate more liquid perhaps before it drips into the atty thus minimizing flooding as more wick mass can soak up more liquid before releasing it to the atomizer coil?

(or am I just off my rocker here....)

I believe the 4 quick puffs do something. I can tell now that I have the white/clear carts. When you do the quick puffy and look immediately at the cart, you can see a small bubble of air come up. When you draw in air with the cart in place, you are creating a low pressure zone inside the cart. Some juice comes out as a result. Just my

No i agree with that also. Since the wick would be thinner uptop to fit in the hole...then wider as it gets closer to the atty, that means less juice would be used since the wick would retain more of the juice at it's base, which would then feed the atty as it needs to. So instead of the wick going straight down into the atty, and extra juice resting on the plate above the atty, the larger base wick will hold that juice, and then can be converted into vapor. We are prob losing a certain amount of juice to the left and right of the wick because the wick is one size, i'm sure it's not a lot of juice, but the wider base wick would hold more. It's no big deal because it's only an atty, so if and when they do come out, you can use both...these work just fine, and those would work better...it's a win win. If these were not working at all then i can see a money loss situation here, but the current ones are great too. I picture 6 months from now, there will be revision 5 and 6 on these cone atomizers

Imagine what it will be like in 2 more years.

 

[ournature]

When you say "conized" what does this mean? Do you mean the end of the spike is cut at a 45 degree angle?

i mean the top of the needle-tube is narrower and the bottom (where the needle meet the metal plate) is wider...
v1 is more like a cilinder.
