I dont know why all of these youtube reviewers are having any success with this Turbine.... Im getting burnt taste hit after hit and Hardly any vapor and a airy draw. Deferentially not working as observed in the demonstration or any review. Im using 80pg/20vg juice and primed the atty with 4 or 5 drops and once the juice i dripped in was gone i get the burnt taste. Its just not wicking
On the plus side it looks good and its not leaking on me. It was easy to fill and the whistle tip feels good in the mouth. Taste is good but only when i drip in it...But we all know you dont buy this to drip.
All in all im kinda disappointed in the Turbine.... But once all the kinks get worked out im sure this will be the go to atty. For now I will stick to my LR attys with a lucid cart.

OK...I got this thing to work! Im goin to leave my 1st post in this thread just to show my 1st impression but after alil tinkering my views have changed.
Ok... So i wasnt getting very good wicking so what i did was took a toothpick and poked at the wick alil to try and loosin it up and hopefully make some room for the juice to flow better. then i moved the wick to one side of the little tube it sits in. (DO NOT PUSH THE WICK THROUGH OR PUSH THE TOOTHPICK THROUGH THE TUBE TO THE COIL) After doing this i tryed it out again and yes... better juice flow BUT the airy draw i had before got stiffer and it seemed like i wasnt gettin air flow. At this time my only ego battery started blinking and needed to be charged... So still wanting to try to get this to work I put the turbine on a regular 510 battery. The 1st draw i got Great airflow and a good cloud of vapor! And draw after draw was just as great as the 1st! So this made me scratch my head...Why didnt it work like this on my Ego? So i looked at the bottom of the turbine atty and noticed 2 notches ... looks like for airflow... So it hit me.... I was tightening the turbine too tight on my Ego and no air was gettin in...So I whipped my Ego off the charger and didnt screw the turbine in as tight and it worked! Great taste great draw and lots of vapor! And best of all...NO BURNT TASTE!
I am gettin alil leakage now but not much. Deferentially works like a charm and Im now enjoying this.
Maybe the next batch they can make them with more or larger airflow notches and with less wick or alil larger wick tube. If Gotvapes can get the turbine to work rite out of the gate better then they will have a great atty for their costumers

Great--I was just about to reply to you since you mentioned something about airflow to look at your venting around the threads. Since this threads where the ego cone goes various users may have to loosen it up a bit there to make sure the laws of respiration will work for you : ) or to try using an extender to pull the unit up...
Thanks for the feedback, we will certainly tell the factory to possibly adjust that area...

Just to let everyone know the first batch we received sold out but that we have plenty more that have already been shipped so sometime next week we hope to replenish the stock on these.
After about a day of messing with these, I've given up. They work fairly well with a nearly full tank but then start to gurgle and juice gets in the mouth piece. Tried different juices and even rinsed, dry burned and started over. At least they're good for dripping because I can't use them the way they were intended to be used.
My second impression. OK so kept pluggin away at this thing not wanting to give up on it. On the second half of the first tank performance started to pick up. Nice vapor, really good taste, a bit stronger than my modded CE2. Occasional dry spot but but that went away by the end of the tank. Cool. Fill the tank up again leaving a larger air pocket and bam dry hit have dry with again. I'm constantly having to re-seat it to get the juice flowing. Down to half a tank again now and performance is right back on again. This is starting to seem like a vapor lock issue to me. When it hit's it awesome, when it doesn't it's horrible. I think I'm gonna keep tinkering with it maybe try finnagling the wick a bit to see what that does. They're on to something here I think they just need to do some tweaking to make the right.
I received 2 of these yesterday, have only tried 1 so far ... leak issues between atomizer and battery ... gurgles alot ... without warning, get nice burst of juice in mouth occasionally. Can't say I'm overly impressed at this point. I just filled it again this morning about 1/2 full ... about 20 minutes later the majority of the juice leaked out all over the battery. I've tried reseating, etc. Do I have to keep the ecig horizontal (laying down on table/desk)? I generally stand it up on the battery. What am I doing wrong? Never had any burnt taste (just blew it out on arrival) or dry hits.
I got my Turbine yesterday but I was sick in bed with a fever so I waited till this morning to fire her up.
I blew it out nothing much came out, So I filled the tank with 2ml of 70vg/30pg juice at 24mg. The primer taste is kinda vgish not bad (my taste is a tad off from being sick) So far I have been using it non stop for a couple of hours on my Buzz set at 3.6v. The vapor is great the taste is starting to really come thru. No leaks no problems. It is super easy to fill. So far this is the best tank I have used to date.I gotta say I love this Turbine. I hope they come out with one I can use at 4.5v soon. I pretty much only use tanks on my Buzz and my Buzz is the only pv I really use right now. This my be the perfect all day no fuss vaping option. I will keep this updated as I use it the next few days

that is very odd, we tried 30 here and not one leaked, we will ask the factory if there was anything wrong with any cartidge tanks becuase that has not happened to anyones we tested.
great review, yes the turbine kicks into action once you break it in, it starts off good and gets better after a few minutes. As with any product, after a huger drag give it a few seconds to soak up again and she is ready to go again.
Thanks kellie. Been waiting on your review. Glad it's working out for you. You mentioned you run it at 3.6v on your Buzz and I was like
until I read gotvapes.com and found out they are rated between 2.1 - 2.3ohms. The 2.7-2.8ohms, when they come out would be perfect even all the way to 5.0v.I'll be keeping an eye on your long-ish term review. Hope you feel better.

I should have said I checked it and it was 2 ohm. Still workin great I'm on my second tank
Got my Turbine today, and I am a little out of sorts on it. It is new technology so I may be doing something wrong. I blew it out, filled it, took two puffs off of it and then nothing. It died on me. Is there anything I can do to make it work again? I sent off an e-mail to Got Vapes and figured I would check here in the knowledge pool to see if there are any fixes for this amazing looking tank atty.
I REALLY WANT IT TO WORK

if it its doa, contact us and we will take care of it immediatly for you, the factory is apologetic on any doa but they only deal with these and they showed us they test each one so we are thinking just like the cracked ce2, shipping boxes need extra padding so they dont take bumps on the way here, trust me they take bumps.
Thank you so much for the rapid response badkolo. This is great Customer Service in action
Many Many Kudos to the Got Vapes crew and Family for taking care of us. I sent you a PM with my info so as not to put it out here in the forum.
