New member here...have a question about Ego C Tanks

[tangerines]

Hi everyone,

Just got my set up last week.

Ego C Twist, type A atomizer and tanks.

I've read it's not a good idea to dry burn these things. I'm unsure about washing them out with water either.
What can I do beside blowing out the atty to get old flavors out?

Also, is there a way to drip into these things or should I get a 510 bridgeless?

Thanks!

For switching between flavors, I've found unless I'm vaping a strong flavor like mint, menthol or cinnamon, I can just change the juice and I've got the new flavor happening in only a few vapes.

For info on how to clean the atties and how to dry burn, this is a great thread which will I think answer all those questions.

For dripping I use a 510 atty. Mine is bridged, but a lot of people use bridgeless. Hope this helps!

Quite honestly you can just run the atty under some water, shake it out and then dry it really good with a towel or something... I haven't had a problem with that method.

Thanks for the link! I'll check it out.

I wasn't sure about bridged or bridgeless or how much difference there was between the 2.

I'm still experimenting with flavors so I need something I can test with. Hopefully one day I'll find my absolute fav and can settle down with a tank. (is it me or does it sound like I'm getting married all over again? )

Ok, I'll just have to try this. I'm just nervous because I didn't really think about it and only have one atomizer right now. I'm getting ready to order something else. asap. hehe

I got a couple of LR306 attys to drip with when I first started (they were recommended to me, but I think they were a little advanced since I was a super noobie). I got one bridged and one bridgeless - to be honest, the bridgeless one freaked me out! A 306 is very short and to see the hot coil burning red so close to where I was supposed to put my mouth frightened me.

If you're only going to drip a little bit (say, to test flavors), you can take a tiny screwdriver and pry the top plate off the atomizer. Reinstall it, then drip a couple of drops right on the coil and the juice will settle down in the small "bowl" under the coil. Pop an empty eGo tank on (with the "cap" left off - the one with the hole in the middle that the atomizer pokes thru) and you can taste test this way. After 4-6 hits you'll probably start to get a burnt taste, which means the juice is pretty much gone.

It's a quick-and-dirty way of testing flavors with a stock eGo-C setup. If you want to drip frequently, then disregard everything I've said here and go with the atomizers mentioned above, LOL.

A water or vodka soak should get most old flavors out, I have always just let mine sit and dry for a day or two after soaking and had no problems. Quickly switched to bigger and better attys though, the ones that came with my ego seemed to clog up quite frequently.
