So I just got an ego c twist in the mail on thursday and I've been using the same protank 2 that I was using on my older ego type model. It vapes fantastic the only problem is the liquid is disappearing quicker than I can seem to vape it! Like last night I left the house and filled the e cig up about 3/4ths with liquid and then 45 minutes later I'm looking down at my e cig and its 1/5th full! It isn't sticky or slimy like if it were leaking and I'm not vaping enough for it to disappear that fast! This happened every night since I got it. I'm vaping it at about 4.0 volts (any lower isn't strong enough, any higher tastes burnt) on a 1.8 ohm head.

Your 'older eGo' was likely a regulated voltage of 3.3-3.4V. With a 1.8 ohm coil ...that's 6.2 Watts. At 4.0V and 1.8 ohms you're at 8.9 Watts. That's a huge difference because of the Watts formula. You should be able to dial down the twist to around 3.4V and still get what you were getting with the regulated eGo batt. (with all else constant - ejuice and protank).

And in case you didn't know, despite the larger looking size of the protank, the Tabac BCC/T3 holds more eliquid - 3ml vs. @2.5ml on the protank. But if 'glass' is a factor, then that doesn't matter ;)
