Still confused. Atomizers? Clearomizers? Tanks? Cartomizers?

[Mugenchicken]

I have been vaping my innokin AIO PCC for slightly over a week now and there has been some highs and some lows but overall i think it is time for an upgrade.

Problem is i'm still freqking confused on whats a atomizer, clearomiser, cartomizer and tank and whatever? Obviously i know what a cartmizer is because my AIO came with it, but i sometimes get gery different taste compared with my friend's ego-t. I hate having to consistently drip into my cartomizer every once in awhile and not knowing how long it last as its sometimes inconsistent.

Will someone be nice enough to recommend a ego setup with a clean taste and decent tight draw like a actual analog? Please also be as detailed as possible like explaining it to a child because i'm really still quite a noob at this. Haha...

Thanks

Cartomizer=Vaporizing element and liquid all in one.
Atomizer=Vaporizing element.
Cartridge=Holds e-liquid and goes on atomizer
Clearomizer=Vaporizing element and liquid canister--Like a cartomizer but you can see inside the tank so you can tell how much e-liquid you have.

I personally would recommend the Sinner's Starter Kit EGO with CE4 V2 | Sin City Electric Cigarette
I own one and it's great except for the clearomizer.
Although they MIGHT ship to Malaysia but no guarantee.
You may want an ego twist I someone can ship to you.

Mugen, So you have cartomizer already in your learning. A cartomizer is an atomizer(heating element) inside some type of filler most hold about 1ml of liquid.

An atomizer is just the heating element and needs to be fed by you(by way of direct dripping every few draws) or by a small resivoir called a cartridge(aka cart). The cart normally holds about .5ml of liquid.

Most popular clearomizers also have a tank function. They are an atomizer inside a clear(hence the name) container which is fed usually by a wick material from the "tank" area to the heating element. Most of the clearomizers hold over 1.5ml.

Tanks come in many forms, there are tanks that hold a cartomizer through the center and usually hold over 3ml of liquid most are above 5ml. There are tanks like the Vivi Nova, which is a bigger version of the clearomizer type, with replaceable parts, and they hold 3.5ml... There are tanks like the riva-t there are tanks like the eGo style t&c-equipment(these I advise you to avoid) there are tanks that feed special built atomizers and tanks that go inside your device to feed the atomizer attached to it...... tanks are kind of a catch-all term for lots of liquid onboard...... still following?

Since you are in Maylasia, I would think that the SLB kGo VV Or the Vision Spinner Or the Joyetech eGo Twist would be a great addition to your vaping arsenal.... any of these would give you the battery power(voltage) your slim unit is lacking, and the reserve(mAh) time that you currently do not have available. The device atop that new battery I would suggest the Vivi Nova, this unit has replaceable parts, is very easy to take apart and clean/service and will be a great and reliable vape. I do not know any specific vendor whos ships to you but this should point you in a direction that it seems that you are looking to go. Good Luck. Happy Vaping.
