This is how I clean my Ego-T LR attys.
I have a Keurig single cup coffeemaker. I put the atty in a cup (standing on its end) and run just the hot water through the machine where it runs right through the atty. Then I turn the atty onto its side and stir every once in a while until the water cools.

Glad to hear Sherri76, Just keep the atty clean by blowing it out and swiping the walls inside with q-tip before each refill and at least once a week do a good clean with one of the many methods listed on the forum. I find heating up some de-mineralized water from the fridge door in a glass measuring cup to right before a boil, add a little Hydrogen Peroxide, let soak for like 10 minutes, blow out the liquid and rinse again and blow/shake out with yet more good water and sit overnight to dry. For stubborn gunked up atties the baking soda and lemon juice method works real well. I also do a few quick dry burns before the liquid cleaning on gunked up atties but I don't take these attys apart to clean like shown in some of the videos. I've ruined two already, wick just fell into the atty from the plate and then sort of disintegrated when I tried to put it back into the pucture tube. So I avoid doing that....
On an aside I ordered some 510-T attys and empty tanks to try on the advise of some of the posters on this thread. They work very well with the ego or the 510 XL battery but I'm still liking the Tank B style best on the 650 or 900 batt. Next toy I'm waiting on are the E2 XL Cartos. The 510-T's provide good vapor and flavor but the re-filling is a drag for me.
I've seen the 510 threaded Giantomizer Tanks on a few sites and have read some pros and cons, mostly cons with the first version. Anyone try the next gen and do you like them? I couldn't find a thread just for them, but there probably is one, sorry if off topic, but they do work on the egos.
Oh, I read on some forum, not this one, that one gal is washing her atties in the dishwasher in the little small appliance holder that comes with some of the dishwashers. She then gives them a good rinse and drip dry. Swears by this method. I'm a tad reluctant to try this out, any takers or anyone tried this method? I do wash some of the things I use in my aquarium tanks in the dishwasher with great results and no left over residues.

OP: OurNature,
In the end, I was cleaning my eGo-T's once a week by running hot tap water through it until it took 4 seconds or less to drain. If I couldn't achieve 4 seconds or less I pitched it and started a new atty. If I lost flavor, I did a dry burn. I was getting about a month or so out of each atty. For me personally, trying to achieve more just caused undue stress, undue thought and time that could have been better spent doing more important things. The day I stopped trying to make an atty last longer than a month... my life improved greatly. I never took one apart, I never fluffed a wick. I just used them as is. <grin> eGo-T's really were the pinnacle for me. I can't thank you enough OurNature for pointing me to them. I know the t's have taken allot of abuse in this thread but they did turn the trick for me.
Italy... Italy... Hmm... That's East of the Mississippi right?
P.S. OurNature... If there's ever anything I can do to help you... drop me a line.

I agree completely, except I haven't used the 4 second draining rule. I think the biggest gist of your post is that you don't do radical cleaning, taking apart, and tinkering. I don't either, and I find that they last longer that way. When I first started using Ego-Ts, I killed a couple of attys myself in radical cleaning and tinkering. You're right - it isn't worth it.
I have NEW EGO-T's (A's) WON from Rocky Mountain Vapor contest & they are wonderful !!
Working GREAT ! NO problems at all !
'bout 2 weeks in(constant & exclusive use)& I'm truly a HAPPY CAMPER !
I think they have finally worked out all the issues with these !!!!!!!
And I have just ran microwave zapped/boiled water thru it a few times,
just to hopefully keep coil cleaner ...
& on others .... I had a "TURBINE" from Gotvapes & IT WAS WONDERFUL for 2/almost 3 weeks & It just quit ... it was really cool to have a MUCH BIGGER tank ! Tons of vapor, GREAT in the flavor dept also ...only reason I have NOT ordered more was that I won this contest & knew I had the ego-t's coming.
So when It comes down to actually buying new equipment , I WILL order the "TURBINES", cuz they taste better & hold more juice .

The Type A's were a real pain for me. Still better than carts.
The I switched to Type B's, and then my life improved. I'm still abusing the first Type B atty, in use since 26/04..that's almost 2 months already.
You know when it's due for cleaning when:
1. It starts tasting funny
2. Starts producing less vapour
3. In some cases gives less TH than normal
4. This is less obvious. You start noticing that it runs slower through juice. My reasoning is: due to gunk on the coil, the coil has less juice flowing to it and making direct contact to it, therefore vaporises less juice.
I do take it apart to clean. My method is as follows. I have taken bits and pieces from methods already mentioned by others, and adapted them. Following are very detailed and exhaustive steps, and I find it works really well. I do this once a week. I use this method on Type A's too. My Type A that's working fabulously has survived EcoPure juice this way. I still use EcoPure on it.
1. Take out tank and blow out excess fluid from the batt end.
2. Do around 5 dry burns to avoid the wick sticking to the coil.
3. Take out needle plate
4. Do a proper dry burn till the coil starts glowing red-to-orange, blowing in the atty while and between dry burns to keep it cooler.
5. Scrape the coil using a needle, both along the oil, parallel to the coil windings, and on the sides of the coil. CAUTION: you may kill the atty this way!
6. Do some final dry burns till the coil starts to glow orange and no debris is visible to the eye. Here I notice that the wick running through the coil turns white again due to heat. This is similar to burning a wick using a gas lighter.
7. Bring some distilled water to the point just before boiling and lower the atty into the water using a teaspoon.
8. Leave the atty there, but stir with a teaspoon from time to time.
9. While the water is still hot, I use a pair of needle-nose pliers to hold the needle plate, from the flat sides, not the rounded ones, and dip it in and out of the water for a few seconds to clean it. The I put it on a lint free cloth or tissue paper to blot. I don't burn the wick using a gas lighter anymore as I found out that the wick becomes brittle and starts to fall apart. I used to find fragments sticking to the coil that way. I don't advise burning the wick.
10. After around 15 mins I take out the atty and blow out from the tank end and the batt end.
11. Pour some of the boiled water into the tank end (yes, I do use the same water) and blow while the water is still in the atty to let the water flow around the coil (water pressure adds to the cleaning, also pushing out debris). I do this 3 times.
12. Repeat step 11 but this time from the batt end. Then, a final water blow through the tank end.
13. Blow through both ends and shake atty holding it from the batt end, to get rid of excess water.
14. Wipe the batt connector using tissue paper.
15. Connect to battery and do 3 1-second dry burns just to get rid of excess water in the wick passing through the coil. I avoid getting the coil even close to dark red hot. This step is optional.
15. Put 4 or 5 drops PG along the mesh surrounding the cup. I do this to limit the atty going through the tank like there's no tomorrow, and also to avoid burnt taste (if you don't prime it properly) since water seems to evaporate quicker than pg/vg. This is part 1 of my way to priming the atty after a cleanup.
16. I put the needle plate on the tank, and align the sides of the plate to the sides of the tank, and add a drop of juice on the exposed wick. Using a needle I gently adjust the wick to that it's as straight as possible. (When you first take it out of the atty you may notice that it becomes separated in the middle because it's sitting on the coil. You don't want this when assembling back the atty because you want proper contact between the wick and the coil)
17. Using the tank, carefully push the plate in place. I have always paid attention to how the plate was positioned before disassembly. I have always assembled the same way. I think this does not really matter though. Push well the tank, and check that there's no gap between the whistle tip and the edge of the atty.
18. Part 2 of priming. Take out the tanks and add a couple of juice drops directly on the wick, in the needle.
19. Put back tank and dry vape till you feel the juice is flowing through the tank to the wick. You may hear a slight gargling, but it's not flooding. You may alternatively do this until you begin to taste the juice or feel a slightly tighter draw. Be careful on how many drops you add in part 1 and part 2, to avoid flooding.
20. VAPE ON!!
Throat hit.
I don't crave high nic or a nic buzz, but without TH it was always a frustrating vape and I was on the verge of of throwing all my gear away. I solved this too. Incidentally I have gone down from 18mg to 16mg due to the tank atties vaporising juices more efficiently. I use the following to cut the juices.
Either:
1. Mix 80% VG with 20% Vodka (40% alcohol content) in a bottle. Then cut the juice using the prepared mix.
Pro: amazing TH.
Con: Leaves a slight burning sensation in the throat for a couple of minutes, especially if you vape outside in hot weather. Drinking water straight after a vape session makes it go away. Apoligies to Tom10 for being stubborn and insist on 20% Vodka instead of the recommended 15%.
2. Mix 80% VG, 15% Vodka, 5% PG in a bottle. Cut the juice using the prepared mix.
Pro: no slight burning sensation
Con: Slightly less vapour somehow
Con: slightly less TH, but I found this depends on the flavour funnily enough. I say this since I use only one brand and type of juice (ENjuice PG)
I find the 2nd mix option is better due to no slight burning sensation. TH is still very good though.
The application of the above findings makes the T-atties, especially the Type B my best equipment so far.
Notes:
- I use Riva batteries only, for the 3.7v. I tried an eGo battery and disliked it. not enough voltage. to me 0.5v makes a great deal of difference.
- I never tried LR Type A's as I still have a bunch of new SR Type A's.
- I tried 2 Type B LR's and both gave me the burned taste, even when they were brand new. It didn't make a difference if they were clean, adjusted the wick, used an eGo batt, of the tank half full. When they occasionally worked fine though, I can say the delivered great TH. I find that using the base mix mentioned above to cut 18mg juices to 16mg, gives me a better TH on the SR's than the stock 18mg on the LR.
I hope the above are of help to any of you. Should you need to ask something or more clarification, please come forward.

I agree with you, there is a certain stress level with the B tanks and attys. When I'm not cleaning them, I'm filling/piercing the tanks, dry burning the attys or wiping up leaks. Doesn't leave much time for actually vaping off them...lol. It wouldn't be so bad if it was just for me but I inherited maintenance of my hubby's PV's also. Our B attys lasted about a month and then I tossed them. All four of them. Haven't decided if I'm going to order any more, I still have all these B tanks laying around. Not to mention about 5 A attys and tanks. Kind of a money pit. Last week I ordered two version 2 CE2 Giantomizers and 2 5 packs of Smoktech dualies XL and now I'm a happy camper....no more stress. But I must admit I'm enjoying the heck out of my 510-T's with the XL 510-T batt, or the mega 510 batt. It's nice to get back to the basic e-cig design every now and then.

i dunno if this has been touched upon, but has anyone had any leaking issues with the EGO - T? Mine has been leaking like heck
Lately mine has been leaking as well, here's a few tips:

I have a quick question for you all about the ego sort of...
So I got my first LR (tank) atty today... I notice a LOT more vapor and TH, but not so much more flavor... is there something I should do or could it just be my juice dying? (I've noticed in my reg tank attys this one seems a lot more muted, I cleaned my atty really well but still not as kickin as it was when I first got it a couple weeks ago. I did use a brand new tank as well).

I've searched quite a few threads on the eGo-T atomizer and (unless I overlooked it) haven't found any mention on how long is the average life span for them. Anyone know? I have no complaints with my 650mah eGo-T battery or the tanks. Never had a leak...not once. I clean or replace the tanks regularly and my batteries last 2 days. So awesome.
But the atomizers. Sigh. I am not tech savvy enough, nor do I have time to do advanced cleaning methods involving taking apart things with pliers, etc. I just blow out and wipe clean, soak and dry. I've been using the eGo-T for about 6 weeks and am now on my third atomizer. Not cool. They aren't LR, either, just standard ones. And they aren't knock offs. I'm in love with the tank, but might have to go back to dripping if I'm gonna be buying a new atomizer every month or so. How long should/do the eGo-T atomizers last?

I don't know if you're talking about the Type A small tank or the Type B large tank. I have 5 Ego-T Type B atomizers and Type B large tanks that are all going strong after a month with no problems at all. I use standard resistance and nothing but genuine Joye parts. I haven't even done cleaning - other than blow them out and some dry burns. I don't do radical cleaning and don't take them apart. When it becomes necessary, I will simply run hot water through them and put them back in service. In my opinion, the new Type B atomizer and tank system is a huge improvement over the type A atomizer and small tank system. Please keep in mind that I'm talking about the 2 ml large tank system - not anything that contains filler material. See below to solve any confusion:
Joye eGo-T Atomizer - Type B *NEW*
Joye eGo-T Tanks (5 pack) - Type B *NEW*
It is my opinion that this large Ego-T Type B is so good that it makes it a top contender for medium priced PVs. Everything about it is better: taste, liquid capacity (2 ml), vapor, overall performance, longevity, and ease of maintenance. Unless something happens to change my mind, I don't think that taking them apart for radical cleaning is required.
Thanks for the insight Tom10. I looked at the links and that's exactly what I have, too. The Type B. Another question: I am assuming you switch out your 5 atomizers on a regular basis? Maybe I'm abusing mine by using one until it's toast and then grabbing a new one.
Each day I usually vape for a couple hours at a time (when in front of the computer, or watching a movie in the evening) but I don't chain vape all day long. I just wonder if I'm heating the atomizer up too much during those two hour stretches. Then again, perhaps it's just me. I've always been very easily frustrated by the inconsistency in TH with e-cigs. The Ego-T is my third PV (and I've been vaping about a year and three months). It's by far the most consistent and easy to use. I'll never go back to analogs, but when I take a drag I expect a full TH every time. It always sucks when that doesn't happen. lol.

I have two 650 Ego-Ts that I barely use - kept in a case for when we go somewhere. I'm disabled and spend a lot of time at home doing volunteer work on my computer. I have one 900 Ego-T passthrough and 2 Ego-T 1000s that I regularly use and each has a different flavor juice. I still have some Type As from 4 months ago that still work like new. My total experience with burned up attys is 2 and both were my fault (both radical cleaning related). In other words, I haven't had one that died a natural death yet. I vape 4 to 6 ml a day, so I average about 2 ml a day through each one. I have decided I won't be taking any apart or doing any radical cleaning. If plain hot water, conservative dry burns, and blowing them out won't keep them going, I will consider that a natural death. I mix my own juice now and never do more than 25% VG. I honestly believe that radical cleaning greatly reduces the longevity of atomizers. Right or wrong, I also use nothing but standard resistance atomizers and all genuine Joye parts. I don't know if this makes a difference or not, but I keep mine horizontal unless they are in use. Maybe part of it is luck, but I just haven't had problems like some have. I'll guess that the juice has a lot to do with everything - too thin and flooding or leaking - too thick and clogging. The balance I like is 75% PG and 25% VG.
I really liked these for awhile...The last two I ordered the wicks disentegrated within a few days use. I don't vape thick juices or strong juice like AC or anything "hot". I took the last one apart with some struggle and found the wick almost gone and the metal cap thing on top of the wick almost gone. I won't be wasting my money on these any longer. I switched to the dual cartos and now the ego mega dual carto, it's definately a step up from the tanks, great taste, vapor, TH, which I'm not sure I care about, but it's there. My filler aversion is over, there is no burnt taste from these. They are way cheaper, easy to fill and a better choice for me at this point. I poured hundreds into the ego tank systems, both A & B, not that they were not ok at the time but there was always something going wrong with the attys. I think the attys need a better wick and they need to improve the flavor delivery if that's possible. Just my opinion, different strokes.
Tom,
I know this probably has been already answered, but as regards to darker juices, does the Type B handle darker juices better than the Type A's?
I have talked to a couple of my suppliers and they don't seem to be aware or have noticed a degradation in performance using darker juices with these.
I have been holding off using darker juices on the Type B's after my experiences with the Type A's.
Do you know how the Type B's handle darker juices?
Also I haven't been able to get an answer whether the 510-T is able to handle dark juices well.
I have been using darker juices with the duals and had great success, and if it wasn't for the minor leaking every now and then, I would have started to use duals solely.
Thanks

I have talked to a couple of my suppliers and they don't seem to be aware or have noticed a degradation in performance using darker juices with these.
I have been holding off using darker juices on the Type B's after my experiences with the Type A's.
Do you know how the Type B's handle darker juices?
Also I haven't been able to get an answer whether the 510-T is able to handle dark juices well.
I have been using darker juices with the duals and had great success, and if it wasn't for the minor leaking every now and then, I would have started to use duals solely.
Thanks

I've tried just about everything with Egos over the last few months. Generally, I had bad luck, poor performance, and problems from dark or thick juices, so I avoid them. I haven't tried dark or thick juice with the Type B large tank and atomizer. I make all of my own juice, so I just don't make any that's dark or thick. The sweet spot for me in the mix is 75% PG / 25% VG. I really don't understand what makes the darker juices to cause so many problems, but they do tend to gunk up atomizers pretty quickly. Maybe it has something to do with sugar - I really don't know. The last I tried to make was cinnamon roll, and it was a dark brown 75/25 failure. You can tilt the bottle it's in and see that it has stained the bottle. I assume that whatever stained the bottle also clogs up attys. Maybe it would do better with higher voltage over 3.7. I'll have something to try that theory on soon.
I tried the 510-t atty with some of my Johnson Creek juices which are mostly dark and 100% VG and I got good performance from it. It was miles ahead of the eGo tank attys. It lasted me over a month until I got tired of the small amount of juice it used. Using the same juices in the eGo tanks killed them after about 2 weeks of use. I went through 5 eGo tank attys before I gave up. Last I checked my 510-t still worked but I've since gone back to the eGo mega atties which may be a little more of a hassle to use but last me anywhere between 2 and 4 months before they need replacing.
