This is the easiest and most effective way ive found for foolproof Ego priming, since using this method I've never had a dry hit.

With your atomizer/tank assembly complete place your thumb over the bottom of the cone covering the bottom completely, with the bottom sealed take a couple draws, look for bubbles rising to the top of your tank and your good to go.

I use this method on my Ego-T and it works perfectly, you might need to adjust your draw on the C model, don't have my C parts yet so can't tell ya...be careful to not over do it, you know you have when there's a dot of liquid on your thumb.

not available in type b, right? also, are the SR atty's any good? not really a fan of typical LR atty's burnt taste.

Bikeface, most flavors on the "C" SR Atty seemed muted to me. the LR Atty I thought was around 2ohm, so not the typical 1.5 - 1.8ohm LR Atty. (It does still heat up quite a bit though)...

I'm trying to picture what you're explaining, but I'm not getting it. I've never had a leak on the C, so I'm not sure how you'd get any liquid on your thumb?

I drop a couple drops of liquid directly on the atty, and I also draw a few times with the power off when changing out tanks.

Sometimes I think I'm getting a burned taste with the coffee's, but I think it's the strong flavor of the coffees instead. I draw exactly the same with all my liquids, and I don't get a burned taste from any other flavor. When I stop to evaluate what I'm tasting, I've come to the conclusion that it's the coffee I'm tasting, not a burned taste.

The battery also has the improved safety chip.
The LED charge indicator was developed by another company and Ovale wasn't 'sure if it would result in a higher defect rate for the battery. Also, it was test marketed about a year ago in Korea and they found they didn't really need it with a large battery like the 650 mAH.'

Why do you call it "infamous color changing charge indicating LED"?

This is my only disappointment with the Ovale C so far. I noticed the color changing charge indicating LED in some of the C reviews on youtube and also saw it mentioned on Joyetechs website. Several C owners have asked about this feature but it is not on the C batteries from Ovale. They stay white and then blink repeatedly when the battery is dead and needs charging. Ovale doesn't advertise this feature but some of the other C packages from Joyetech apparently have this hence my calling it the "infamous color changing charge indicating LED". Maybe elusive is a better term?

A minor nitpick on my part. I still love me eGo-C. :p

I think it depends on what you vape and how strong you like the vapor and TH. I like the SR attys with sweets and/or fruit vapes. I prefer the LR attys with robust vapes like tobacco flavors. Some juices are good on both!

If you like a smoother vape the SR atty is likely the way to go. I have been using the LR almost exclusively for about a week with Bounty Hunter and Kona Coffee Milkshake. The tobacco flavors in Bounty Hunter really come forward nicely on the LR where I get more Vanilla Wafer sweetness on the SR with the tobacco tones muted. Kona Coffee Milkshake is also more robust on the LR with a very strong Kona flavor. I get more of the milkshake creaminess on SR and muted coffee flavor. Hope this helps. :2cool:

Edit to add:I would think the B type cone/tank is in the works. Maybe Kent C has some more information since he was a beta tester?

Yes, elusive is better.
I have another new e-cig w/ a 3 LED charge indicator. It runs on the low 1 LED half the time.

eGo system:
"At 50% life left on the battery, the LED will light up a sky blue colour.
Then at 10% life left it will light up a Darker Blue colour.
at this point, you will not have long left at all before the battery needs charging."

Not talking about typical tank/spike leaking Raber...

When you cap the bottom of the atomizer and take a few draws you create a vacuum that will pull liquid thru the attie and on to your finger..

It's also crucial you don't overfill your tanks, if you do expect dry hits, you'll want to see a good size bubble after filling and capping the tank....no bubble=no flow

I haven't experienced the burning on the c LR's as I did with the t LR's. Some flavors do better with the heat of the LR attys and some better with the SR attys. And I'm running more SR's than LR's right now.

And from the first beta atty/holder and 2 SR attys, I'm now running 4 eGo-c's and there is no leak factor or burn factor on the LRs or SRs. I have two more coming.... :) I was going to hold off until the B's but I'm liking the A's right now on flavor mainly, over the t's, where I'm running all B type attys.

Yup- I always keep a bubble when I fill. One reason I don't care for the rubber caps over the hard caps, because the rubber seems to take more room than the hard cap.

Anyway, I'm still not able to visualize what you're referring to. When my system is together, there's no way for me to put my finger on the bottom of the atomizer. And I don't see myself spiking the tank without the cone on, and I can't reach inside the cone to put my finger on the bottom of the atty....I'm lost, apparently. But that's not an unusual state for me to be in. :p

ok, so i've been vaping on 2 NR ego-c's and 1 LR ego-c in the last couple of days.
I like these new puppies.
I found them pretty similar to T atomizers but they are more fuctional.
Taste gets clean way sooner than T's, there's very little primer in these new atties as there's no mesh inside them.
Basically there's less juice that need to be absorbed through the internal parts of the atty.
Apart from the less expensive changeable atty i think the missing mesh-around-the-cup is the biggest improvement from T's.
There will be less 'old juice' standing and floating inside these atties and this is good for taste.
Changing flavours is easier in these.
Anyway the flavour can be muted if you don't find the right draw pressure that this system need (it may vary from piece to piece though).
I found i have to draw way more harder than T's to have the right coil wetness.
In the beginning i had few dry hits with these as i was used to draw very very softly with typeB T's to avoid over-feeding.
Taste is generally pretty good with the flavours i tried so far.
But i suspect flavours rendering might be a tad more intense with the cylindrical version of the C dued to larger openings and channels in the TypeB tanks...

I am doing fine w/ type A & C.
The draw can be adjusted on the C by turning the atty to change the alignment of the channels on the atty to the ones on sides of the tank.
Atty holder on first, align atty & then put cone on.

Ever since I learned this a couple weeks ago, I've become obsessive compulsive about how my atty is lined up! LOL

Ok Raber...one more try. With the attie cone assembled and ready to place on the battery...DON'T, with the attie assembly in hand with no battery on it place your thumb over the threaded fat end where the battery mounts then take a couple primer puffs, you'll see bubbles rising in your tank, now screw the tank/attie assembly to the batt and your good with a well primed atomizer.
That's all I've got for y brother, maybe someone else can explain it better.

OK - that makes sense now! Thank you!

I actually do the same thing when I change flavors, but I take a few primer puffs with the whole device assembled. Never thought to do it before putting the cone assembly on the battery.

Oh - and I'm a "sister", not a "brother"! I know - the snake throws people off, but I'm a Herper Chick! :p

Now - off to edit my signature! LOL
