It is getting to the mid 90's here and have noticed my protank and ego-t batteries arent hitting like they do when i am at home in the AC. is this related? i have read a little bit about protanks having problems in warm weather and evod's dont. should i just get a evod for when im at work?

I have had that issue for some time, also it seems the flavor will change when the juice will warm up and return to normal when cooled down.
High temperatures can cause your liquid to get thinner. Do you leave your rig in the car? or directly in sunlight? Also do you work inside or outside? OR just spend a lot of time outside?
I've not heard anything about one being worse than the other, but vapor production across the board seems to be affected by warm weather, at least in my experience. Less vapor means less th and delicious juice/toot.
Also liquid changing color and flavor is called steeping, much like tea or coffee. Sometimes it makes the juice more potent.
good to know im not the only one 
anybody that has a evod care to chime in? thinking bout getting one for work.

I have an evod on a ego. I also have the same issue. I never leave it in my car or in direct sunlight but anytime im outside in the heat I always get less vapor production and less of a throat hit.
i work inside a factory running lathes and what not. it gets to close to 100 in here though. right now it is 98.
thank you, guess i will save the 8$ then
i want to upgrade my batteries though, i have the ego-t 650mah batteries, what would be a good upgrade for me to work with my protanks?
You are drawing in cold air to meet the humidity created by vaporizing your juice to make visible white vapor. Hotter days have hotter air, and so vapor volume decreases. Think white breaths during winter; you dont have that in the summer.
I dont have an explanation for lack of throat hit, but then again TH is a sensation so its hard to quantify or reason upon.

I have this problem and it is the ProTank. When I go from 80 AC in my house to my car, the ProTank floods and won't hit at all. I'm in Phoenix so the temperature change it big. Car can easily be 130 degrees.
I did exactly what you are thinking of. I bought an evod as I wanted a decent bottom feed and wanted to try it. I do not have this problem with my evod but I only have the one so far and haven't had to replace atty yet. Could change. So far, so good with the evod though!

I have an ego 1000mah or maybe 1100mah not sure. And an ego twist same mah. I'm wanting to upgrade to a provari here in the near future.
my protank is tooootally unusable in warm conditions...it floods like crazy (the juice i have used in it is pretty thin to begin with)

I like the vamo V3 with the protank.
Definitely the juice not the tank.
More warm liquid less cooling - gets kind of Meh
Same with other larger tanks in hot weather
Even my smaller 1.7ml tanks don't taste as fresh when hot

Yes, heat (above about 85) does cause protank flooding. My solution is one of those travel mugs that have the liquid in them and are meant to be frozen - freeze the mug, use that as a PV holder in your car and, if you are going out for all day, a small cooler with those reusable ice packs wrapped in a towel (to soak up any condensation) is a must have - cool juice, cool spare tank, cool rig.
Yes, I know these things act more like pets than PVs at times, I swear it has a mind of its own. LOL
Higher VG (like above 50% helps too but, that kills the TH unless you are doing a spicy/hot flavor or lots of nic to compensate for it.

Living in Texas and working outside all day makes for some challenging vape conditions. I do notice a slight decrease in vapor from my Evods around the 90 - 100 degree mark, but by then my biggest worry is keeping myself hydrated.
Also, three quarters of the way through an Evod the vapor production drops way off. I switch to a full Evod that I've kept near my cold lunchbox and all is well.

Just curious, anyone know if turning up the voltage on a VV device would help? I know it doesn't help the OP with a non VV device but when my Protank isn't hitting, I crank up my twist a bit and boom...vapor, TH...satisfaction.
I use the pro tanks in Dallas & Houston as well as Dubai UAE with no heat related issues. I also use them in-flight on 14 & 15 hour flights with no leaks. They get my vote (& $ too!).
Hello. Been vaping about a month now and smoke free after 21 years. Found I prefer high vg juices. I live in Tx. Just bought an evod. Removed both flavor wicks and it works awesome in the a.c. I'm an auto tech so I work outdoors. In the Texas heat my evod floods like crazy with both wicks removed.I use mini novas at work and evod at home. Hope this helps. (80vg, 20pg mix)
