New EGO TANK system.

[lilfarmtruck]

Upon returning to vaping after a 7 month relapse on analogs I was very suprised to see what new models and tech is out there. I was seriously considering the Ego to compliment my KR8 set up. I decided to go with the plain old run of the mill 650 mah Ego and 510 Cartos. I kept my old KR8 around for ease of use so I wanted another system that was just as easy to use. After reading all I could find on the Ego T, I decided to pass. I hate fiddling with things just to get them to work properly. I hated cleaning attys and dealing with leaky messy carts on my other systems so I didnt want to shoot myself in the foot. I'm sure in time all the wrinkles will be ironed out of it as it is a neat concept.

Sounds like this particular technology is too new. Unreal all the crap you have to go through with these things.

If someone ever makes a fill and go system that lasts is self cleaning and you can see how much liquid that is inside, they are going to be rich.

Yeah... But then many of us might find that many factors are of the essence, such as flavor, TH, etc... etc... etc... So.... Would it be possible to come up with a set up adressing each and every factor succesfully... Mmmm.... I dont think so.... If you are considering the fact it could be a HIT to turn smokers... Maybe, but once you become a vaper... Then, your personal preferences will translate into the need for a much more 'complex' unit...

I mean, the spirit to your idea sounds reasonable, but predicting the future may lead to 'short-comings' as a rule.... And, you may think you could have a WINNER if the unit comprises the features you mention BUT, I wouldnt be that sure...

BTW, have you tried 510-T's atties and tanks on your eGos....?

I have tried, as of right now, most T type of atties being eGo-T... And while some are very very GOOD and convenient... I have found myself using the 510-T for I think it is way more consistent and the flavor factor is improved IMO...

What do you guys think?

eGo-T vs. eGo w/ 510-T ?

The problem with me and other noobs I've talked to, and agree with them.

There are too many options. The websites assume everyone is an expert. They offer virtually no explanation of what goes with what. The whole thing is a turn off.

Did you get your questions about the eGo-T sorted out? I saw you in another post and am just wondering. I don't know if anyone mentioned it, but you can also get a 510-T system... which would work on your set up. All you would have to buy is 1 510-T atomizer and 1 set of 510-t tanks. I think that's about 12 bucks in total. In my opinion, the 510-t is far superior to the eGo-T. Better flavor. better vapor. If you need links, I can provide them. ;]

 

[kevinjames]

Yeah that would be cool man. Thanks. I have the eGo, not the 510 though.

 

[Civitasdei]

The cool thing is, the 510-T will fit into your eGo battery and your eGo cone will fit over the 510-T as well.
Here is the atomizer:
Matte black 510-T atomizer for Joye 510 electronic cigarettes

Here are the tanks:
A package of 5 clear 510-T tank cartridges (Genuine Joye!)

I have the 510-T on my own eGo and it looks awesome because the eGo cone will slip right over the 510-T system. I'll try and take a picture for you.

If you have the 510-T atty and the 510-T tanks, just snap open the tank, then fill with juice, put the lid back on and insert into your atty. done. :]

I bought 2 ego-t type B and 4 510t attys this week and have had only a few days on each .. my conclusions so far .. using dekang flue cured the whole time.
The ego-tb very much impressed me originally, great vapour and taste was quite reasonable. day 2 on tank, flavour had dropped quite a bit and the second half of the tank leaked into the lanyard. Still a good device I think but needs care with transport.

The 510T, I set one up in a nice purple atty for the gf with menthol, absolutely amazing taste and really cool fresh dekang menthol hit, she is hooked and a 100% 510T addict now.
Pulled out a new atty for myself and it just doesn't have the tastes that even the ego-tb manages, let alone my favourite boge LR cartos at least at ego voltages.

Tried the 510T on the provari at up to 4.2V .. burnt taste almost straight away.

So .. still confused, I would love to use the ego-tb on an ego bat as my out and about ecig, but it doesn;t seem to cope with the stresses of being moved much. leaks.

the 510T is great on some flavours it appears and not others, even if it was a just a poor atty, thats a fail in itself. lack of consistency. I can get great vapour out and about witj an ego bat and boge LR carto, take 5ml vial of juice and you are set for the day. At home .. provari, vapemate and normal R boges is great.

Will be getting more 510T in for the missus at the very least, but I think my ego tank attys .. I'm giving up for the time being. too frustrating.

510-T on ego batt, sounds interesting. Must try it. Don't give up on the B tanks. It's all just in the way you initially puncture the tank. Looking down at the puncture cone inside the atty you will see that it comes to a point and you can see the wick sitting inside that tube. Line up tank with the air vents and the ridges on the tank and have that point facing you. Then puncture and rotate tank 360 deg. to get a nice hole. Then fill and replace the tank exactly the way it was lined up when you puctured it. Do not mod it, it will break in after a tank load and so will the new atty. Since I followed this procedure exactly I haven't had any more leaks. But this could just be a fluke, not really 100% sure that this did the trick yet.

after few days using a couple of joye ego-t typeB mega atties i have to report a little problem with this specific atty.
i have to say type b's are a bit better performing than type A in all aspects but i also noticed that they tend to leak more than type A..
both of my B's atties did seriously leak from the battery end a few times, it never happened with type A's.

Still have to understand if the leaking is dued to tank caps or if it's the atomizer.
wondering if somebody else had the same issue.

Hey Bro,

I've been using both the A and B atties for a while now with no leaking. The only thing I have always done with all the caps is to remove the hanging chad after the initial pierce. Some have reported this makes the leaking worse, but since I haven't had a leaker I cannot confirm.

I'm still very surprised by the varying results had by all. All of the eGo-T equipment I have has been bought at Cignot, Kalamazoo Vapor Shop, or Freedom Smoke USA..

hi coz,

mine are from TW, but they should be the same joyetech product, i believe..

i had many many Type A's from TW/Ovale and haven't had issues with leaking,
now i'm rotating 2 type B's and while i'm very pleased with their performance they both tend to leak on the battery end and i have juice coming up the mouthpiece frequently.
With type A's i was used to tweak the wick inside the piercing tube if i had poor wicking or too much wicking,
so i pulled the wick up a bit in my 2 type B but it didn't solve the issue very much.
At this point i suspect the tank caps might be the problem, wondering if silicone tank caps for mega tanks will be released, same way they did with typeA tanks.

Apart from that i'm still pleased with these atomizers, they still do better than other systems i tried so far..

Was just checking in. I should have also mentioned the original Ovale T's I purchased.

Hey. I also remove the chad and also ream out the hole to round (scissors) and I haven't had leaking on any type A/A-lr/B/B-lr.... And I haven't had to readjust wicks so far. I also use all VG - including nic ejuice, an 80:20 VG blend VG:H2O - the base of the flavoring is some VG but likely mostly PG - all Decadent Vapours/TW stuff. I'd be suspect of some thin PG's like JC's ejuice. And enough power vaping will heat up any juice and breakdown the viscosity some.

It's either though the hole, cap or through the spike. If it's losing ejuice through the hole then I think the tank isn't seating properly againt the metal 'disc' holding the spike - perhaps the length of the atty chamber is out of spec - not allowing it to seat. Just guessing here OR if not that, then perhaps you got shortchanged on the wicking - you could bulk it up a bit with silica rope or if you have some CE2's laying around - grab a piece from that. See Vicky's video esp. wrt the metal mesh 'cap' around the wicking.... some have reported not having these and I think it would tend to block the flooding of the coil, etc.

thanks Kent,
yes my juices are rather thin, i use just little VG (15-20%), mostly PG.
What do concern me is that i had no leaking issues with typeA's using the same juices.
What i think is that typeB's do wick a bit more than A's,
that's probably why they seem to produce more vapor..
but the more wicking might make them more prone to leaking with some juices.

Anyway i'm using just 2 B's out of 5 i purchased,
will check another one tomorrow to see if it holds my juices better.

Today i have checked A's and B's spikes side to side.
I noticed that the 3 little channels inside B's spike seem a bit deeper than the ones inside A's spike,
also B's do have less wick material inside the spike.

conjunction of these 3 elements might be the reason why B's do wick more and perform a bit better than A's:
1. deeper channels inside the spike.
2. less wicking material inside the spike.
3. larger tank.
on the other side this may be too much wicking for some juices...

i'll go on with experiments.

 

[Stonemull]

My B seems to have stopped any leaking, I have not noticed any drop in the level in last 2 tanks. I am now not so sure the original leak was as bad as I suspected. There was definitely some leakage, but it may have only been a drop or two instead of the partial tank I thought. The leather lanyard makes it difficult to tell as it soaks it up.

i have been using the method so far of blowing out the excess (only a drop or two) from the atty when a tank is used, rinsing tank and topping up. Juice seemed a bit darker in the last dregs of the tank this morning, so dumped the last of the tank and rinsed the atty with hot water, blew dry but did not dry burn. Oddly it seemed to have a stronger burnt taste after this. I am going to avoid a dry burn for as long as possible with this atty and see how it holds up.

I am starting to be more impressed with the B's.

Seems like those that look into it get it working - the others are sitting in drawers. I understand both

Cozzy and Ournature and Kent:

Dont you think 510Ts perform a million times better than any eGo-T ?

At least They Certainly Do for me...

Just wondering what you Experts thoughts on this were...

I have been vaping both with good result.

The 510 T with the new longer cartridge reminds me a lot of a standard 510 atty. While the eGo-T A is like an eGo Mega atty. The B atties are a little richer and fuller to me.

That's my take. But I'm still trying to figure out whether my taste is far off the beaten track, or if I totally bypassed the badly wicking initial release.

One thing I haven't done a lot of is vape the 510 T on an eGo battery. I've been using it a lot on my 3.7 (actually running 4v with an 18650) KVS VVV.

The whole eGo T line has been #winning for me. I've moved on as a personal project to figuring out how to maintain them with various cleaning methods. I've been trying some other things. I got a MAP tank which I've been running on my GGTS. Good fit actually. I usually hate CE2 cartos, but in the MAP they are excellent.

But for the foreseeable future the tanks are my primary vape.

Both systems have worked well for me. I've had no leaks and so far haven't had to adjust wicking on either. My attys are from cignot and heaven gifts where I'm certain they are joye tech. I also have A LR's from TW (also Joye). For me the flavor on the B-types are the best yet short of dripping - better than the mega eGo attys which were my standard before this. I did up my flavoring (I DIY Decadent Vapour flavors) for the A types, but I've dropped the flavor portion on two flavors since going to the B's. I have one B-LR for one stronger flavor but that same flavor tastes well on the regular B as well - just different.

On the 510-t - the biggest difference between it and a regular 510 is that the draw is a bit tighter which results in a bit more vapor - similar to the restriction that the cone affords on a regular eGo setup with a 510 atty. In fact, the 510-t on the eGo is a pretty good vape. Still, because of the flavor and capacity, the eGo-t B-type is the clear winner for me.
