Another Manitoban!! I am not from Winnipeg though!

I am fairly new to the scene also. I recently got an ego-c. Have had it almost a week now, I couldn't be happier! It all depends which way you want to go I suppose. For myself right now, the ego is great. I go through about a tank a day (1 ml appx) and I get almost 2 days out of a battery charge. I may upgrade in the future but for now this is the setup that works great for me!

Hello & welcome to ECF & back to vaping! I haven't tried many of the gizmos frequently touted here but from what I have tried (and read) the truest flavor of the juice can be obtained via direct dripping on a quality atomizer. Among the attys I've tried, tops on my list is the IkenVape io6 (with an io6 drip tip), closely followed by their 510. Both use the 510 threading & are compatible with the eGo batteries (and with most everything else), and are available in 1.5, 1.8, 2.5 & 3.5 Ohms (I believe) and right now cost $8.49 each, with drip tips for a couple bucks each. I am partial to the 1.8 Ohm @ 3.7 volts; with the eGo battery (which I believe runs at 3.4 volts) you might prefer the 1.5 Ohm, or depending on your variety of liquids, perhaps an assortment of 1.5 - 2.5 Ohm. Oh yeah, here they are: Atomizers - IkenVape Store

As you may know, the only downside to dripping is it requires constant repetition. The atty only holds about enough juice to equal one analog cigarette, so instead of lighting a fresh cig every time you want one you'd have to drip 3 drops of juice into the drip tip of the PV. IMO this is a small price to pay for the difference in flavor between an atty and a carto.

Best wishes & Happy Vaping!

I find the stardusts have tight draws sometimes as well. There is a airhole at the bottom of the clearo (where you connect the battery to), just take some pointy tipped tweezers and gently turn and pull out a tiny bit. Not too much though, makes a huge difference in airflow. I also empty the juice out of it each night and rinse with vodka/water. It's made a big difference with mine. I have had no cracks ever in any of mine, some people have posted that they have. I have about 5 that I rotate at a time. Someday too, I will have a nicer PV. But right now I am happy with what I have.
By the way, thanks for the email, sorry you have crappy internet service there. (That's another issue in Manitoba) and yes our group is celebrating the sacred feminine this sunday as well in honour of mother's day!

Thank you, those techniques worked perfectly, it is much better today! TTYL
