New from Israel - Gonna get an eGo-C and have some questions

[NIRz]

Hi guys, I have a V2Cig kit for 11 days now and no analogs since the moment I got it! (have been smoking 1PAD)

I really love this whole vaping thing and found this really excellent community about a week ago and also went through a LOT of reading and researching here till I came to the conclusion that I'm gonna order an eGo-C kit with some LR atomizers and I have a few questions:

1. Do I need to replace the atomizer every time I'm changing to a different juice? or is it only when they completely die? and what about the tanks themselves? Can I just clean them up somehow or do I need to replace them too? Also what's the average lifespan of the atomizer?

2. Does a LR atomizer drains the battery faster then the normal atomizer? Should it be used only on specific flavors (tobacco/sweets) or is it just a matter of personal taste and the TH I'd like to achieve?

3. I would also like to order about 3-4 bottles of juice with my kit and since I live in Israel and the shipping costs are pretty high I would like to order all of the stuff from a single store if it is possible. (Currently I found the eGo-C kit only at ovaleusa.com and they don't have much juices to choose from)

Any help will be much appreciated! Thanks!

Welcome to ECF , but be careful of the LR atty's and carto's on the EGO . There are some EGO specific cart's out there . Yes , LR atty's and carto'd do drain the battery a lot faster . SR , not so much . and they work fine on the EGO's . good luck and great job , getting off the stinky's .

I also like to add its probably only a matter of time before other vendors will be able to sell that Ovale C setup.
The atomzer will retain some of the previous flavor yes for a while , some DIY clean the atomizers with an alcohol.

Thank you for your answers,

Dieseler, do you mean that the old flavor will be retained to some point at the new tank, or does it take a few tanks until it completely fades away?

He was talking about the wick , in the atomizer , retaining a little flavor , not the tank . As long as your using similar juices (IE fruit for fruit , tobacco with another tobacco , etc . you should be fine .

Ma kore Nir,

Welcome to ECF buddy,

You can order juice from the UK. Liberty-Flights.co.uk carries a few types And check the UK forum in National forums - they have a list of vendors.

I think the Ego-C is pretty new so you should find out what PG/VG thickness works in it. With normal Ego-T type tanks it's 30% VG or less though some thinner 50/50's may work.

I use cartomizers (Boge 510 for Ego type devices) which have limited lives but each has its own coil - no atomizer needed, keeps flavors totally separate. If you're using atomizers I recommend one for tobaccos and/or non-sweet juices, one for sweet juices and only put clingy flavors in cartomizers (like cinnamon, cloves etc - and cinnamon can damage plastic) though if you vape cloves and are willing to devote on atomizer to cloves you could do that and ditto for cinnamon if there are no plastic tanks.

If you do order the c I suggest you look at adding a pack of attys if you can. Hopefully the attys have a long life, but it's always nice to have back up attys. You can also dedicate a couple of them to specific flavors if you want. eGo-C Standard Atomizer heads ( 5 Qty ) - ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE (e-cigarette) :: ego-C, changeable system, ego-T, elips, liquid, juice, accessories

In my mind, the c is a little over priced. The sale price they had (70) should be plenty for it, but 90 seems a little steep to me. I recommend taking a look at the kgo (slb ego clone), or one of the other ego clones first.

If you decide on holding off on the c, here's some vendors to take a look at. Hoosier E Cig Supply (Check for codes)
Welcome to MadVapes LLC E-Liquid

For example, you could pick up a 1100mAh KGO kit, a Cartomizer Tank Kit, a five pack of 1.7 ohm smok tech cartos, and a ton of juice from hoosierecigsupply for the price of the c.

Edit: As mentioned above, LibertyFlights has a good reputation also. E-Liquid

Welcome to ECF!

Congratulations on kicking the habit. My best advice for staying that way is to always have back up hardware and a decent stock in juice, because for me in the beginning I had a lot of problems with shipment, hardware, etc and would end up buying a pack of cigs to get me by until my order came in.

In regards to the Ego-C, I have tried the eGo tanks, and found them to be terrible. They may work for you, but imo I would start off with cartomizers. They are super easy, and will give you the throat hit and warmth that an eGo tank cannot do. I recommend a LR Boge 2.0 I wouldn't bother with the eGo-c kit, but get a couple of 900+ mAh batteries, and a wall charger. There are also new batteries that have a USB port on the bottom, that will allow you to connect to your PC and have a constant charge, which is great!


1. You don't need to replace them with different juices, but just clean it if the juice is totally different than what you have. If they are somewhat similar then you probably won't even notice. The tanks can also be easily cleaned, and shouldn't need to be replaced often at all. Eventually the cap on the end of the tank will leak from being punctured so many times, and you can get replacement caps cheap. Your atomizer should last several months, but don't be surprised if you kill your 1st couple prematurely while learning.

2. LR does drain the battery faster, but with a 900+ mAh you should be able to get at least 6 hours from a full charge. LR is for throat hit and warmth from what I understand.

3. Not sure on this, but I would look into UK stores.

Best of luck, and again, welcome to ECF.

Hi Nir,

Another Israeli here

As for your 3rd question, don't forget there's a chance your package will be stopped by the customs, happened to me for 2 times in a row for e-liquids shipment from the UK and they refused to release my shipment so I had to send it back to the UK. (I believe there's a higher chance customs will stop a package when its being sent from USA and Europe..)

As an alternative, I could recommend you both Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail-- and Best electronic cigarettes_ecigarettes_eliquids_ejuices - Heaven Gifts which both are located in China and sell Joyetech products and to my opinion they have the lowest prices per item and lowest shipping available to Israel.

From my experience, they ship the products in small carton boxes taped all around, makes it so hard to open that the customs don't even bother to check them.

As for Heaven Gifts, they currently have limited stock of eGo-C.
I ordered it couple of days a go and its on its way here.
Shipping is just around 6-7$ and is calculated by weight so it is well worth it compared to the shipping costs we are used to from US or EU.

Hope this helps.
