I've vaping about a third of this ZAP tank and still no taste of my peppermint so on I'll vape tomorrow and see if it comes thru. Not sure right now if an RBA fits in with my vaping stile. I'm a heavy vapor and don't know if these can wick fast enough for me. I did away with the burnt yucky taste I was getting but if I hit this too hard I can taste a burnt taste coming.

Fran - with practice and patience making wicks & coils an RBA can keep up with heavy vaping. Here ya go, I posted this in another thread when folks were wondering if ceramic wicks can hold up to high watts and chain vapes.

I would use LR, or low resistance carto's. I like the DCT tank. It has a locking ring, and goes well with a flanged carto. Even though it is plastic, I have not had a problem using fruit juices in it. Others say they have. Could I just be lucky? One thing I haven't tried is cinnamon, but I don't know if I'd like that anyway. You could use the 3ml tank which will match the eGo the closest. BTW, you need the filler, or get a bottle that has a needle tip to get your juice into the tank.

Filling is a small learning curve. Don't get juice in the center hole of the carto, because that will flood it. I am told to use a tooth pick in the center hole to block it off. I haven't tried that myself yet, but it makes sense.

Welll... sorry, I meant a "pretty, girly" tank... like the ones from bedazzled, or possibly Phiniac or IBtanked. I'm hopeless, I know! But can an ego be used w/ any of these tanks?

Have ya'll seen the SLAP YO MAMA tank tool here in Baditude's blog?? http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/baditude/3710-5-cartomizer-tank-setup.html Will this work?

LOL! OK, I guess I'm just not good with the girly stuff! I think there are some 19 mm tanks on that site, which won't look too out of place on a eGo. It may help to get one of those eGo cones to make a smooth transition. Short eGo Cone Cover If that's not the right cone, someone please correct me!

Hi, Natasha! I don't know how the copper will hold up to tarnishing. Though I must say that when copper gets that verdigris patina, it can look quite spectacular. As for other info about the eGos, I really don't know yet...I just ordered this stuff from Vapor Girl last night. I'll be doing some reading tonight about them. I ordered the T2 clearo offered at Vapor Girl (at their recommendation). I chose an amber color to go with the copper.

You should know, too, that the Vapor Girl site is having some issues with its ordering software. They are looking into it according to an email I received this afternoon.
Thank you, Debi

nope........wrong thing for use with tanks......needs a thread cover, cone cover isn't for what she wants.

Thanks. It's my favorite drip-tip. Been missing it with the Kangers.

I really like the vase shaped tips. Even the metal ones that I didn't think I'd like. The shape just feels more comfortable to me. The EVODS have a larger tip that can't be changed, but they're OK. Just prefer the others. I need to get some more so it's easier to have some put aside for cleaning. They do come in pretty colors too.

I am never going to order anything cuz I don't know enough to put anything together!!

I want a pretty, girly mod with a pretty girly tank and punched cartos. AND a pretty stone or glass tip.
And even if I suck it up and buy the Provari, I am advised to advised to still have a back-up. I can't choose a plan A or a plan B. Pffft
And I want to order something YESTERDAY, as my Nanos are running out for the Volts and I don't really want to buy anymore of those.

*le sigh*..... this is seriously difficult.

That's impressive. I don't vape that heavy. LOL. I have some ceramic too but haven't ventured down that road yet.

Impressive yes. Nuts, also yes. Didn't even know he did that one. Guess it shows what it can do, but he doesn't usually vape that hard. I'd know because I'd probably be picking him up off the floor!

    Natasha...a backup can be an Ego...or even your volts possibly. Just something to keep you going in the (hopefully unlikely) event your PV ... got lost / failed / left somewhere you can't return to til tomorrow... etc, whatever reason. Just something to keep you able to vape til you can remedy whatever situation might (or might not) arise.
