That "Betty" apparently flew off to see a male birdie! That tracking number you said was around her little birdie ankle is very likely no longer in one piece (and covered in unknown substances!). I would complain mightily, but it's hard not to love ya LOL

P.S. Scottbee.... I think those "bottoms" are much less likely to have blurays lodged in parts of their homes and persons...just say'in ;-)

I've been going crazy looking for an ecig that doesn't leak at the battery connection. I have an 808 and Leo, and spend more time cleaning them with tissues than vaping. The tank system holds promise.

No, I'm not flooding my e-cig. I only put in two drops of juice at a time. When it gets close to that burnt metal taste, I put in two more. Anything less just tastes like burning. Cartridges don't wick very well, and polyfill is made of plastic. I fill it up with a lot of juice, but it just sits in the cartridge, only losing about two or three drops. I get a couple small puffs, tasting slightly of plastic, and then the next one is like a burning vacuum cleaner belt.

I am hoping the Joye Ego-T will not have these problems. Any thoughts? Also, what is NotCig's policy on returns?

I got my Ego T quickly. Someone drew a bird with a birdhouse along with a Thank You and Good Luck on the packing slip. I went with the 1000 MAH battery upgrade, because let's face it I'm packing this thing for trip to the Virgin Islands.

The tank system and both batteries performed well.

The auto shutoff was tested. It worked and you have to concentrate to hit it fast enough. It is a vital feature, because that big button is easily depressed by accident.

Air draw is a bit, well, airy. compared to using the Yeti branded atomizers I favor on The Precise 10440. It produces more overall vapor, and it should at 1000 mah, but it is more spread out. If you wrap a finger around part of where the cone meets the battery you can control the hit to a degree and make it a little richer.

Still, the Ego T is a game changer. In one step it eliminates cartomizers and cartridges and also makes the future of high cost AFS systems uncertain. The unit does not leak even when the tanks are removed and put back in, at least so far. Of course a sample of juice would have been nice too, but you can't have everything.

What do you mean by the paragraph highlighted above....Do you mean that if you hold the button for a certain amount of time it will shut off by it self ? I that why one would have to concentrate to hit it fast enough....Or do you mean that the have the 5 click auto shutoff....Thanks in advance

I'm trying to think what kind of drawing I'd like on the invoice of my next order...

The Bird house sounds lovely. Maybe another kind of nature scene?? I do like dogs. Maybe 2 Malmutes.

That's it! Two Malmutes. Could they possibly be turned in opposite directions, as though they have just mated? Someone could write, "Thank you. The dogs might be stuck for just a little longer." J/k.

BTW, I have no idea what the auto shutoff is.

I'm still trying to become the master of my own tank domains. I have not been completely sold on the system, yet, but I do understand the potential. I still get a little burned tasted after a couple of drags. I think that I can work on it through reading the forums, experimenting w/the fill level and how hard I draw.

Bottom line is that I haven't met an component of this system that I don't like. I still like dripping, filling carts, the cartomizers, and the tank. It is all good! In fact, I was just wondering if CigNot carries tea bags. I still like them!

I appreciate how helpful and friendly (and economical) CigNot is. You all have been great with everything that I've ordered. What a fabulous service you are able to extend. Helping people get healthier! Does it get any better?

Best regards!

Peg0325, I was told by Vicki via email that you might have to adjust the thickness of your ejuice. Juice that is too thick won't wick properly. I'll bet that is what's going on with you. I can offer no personal experience to this reply, because my new Ego-T is hung up at some USPS warehouse, due to the weather. :(

I think you can dilute your ejuice with purified/distilled water. That's what I've been hearing in the forums, at least.

Thank you very much! This is probably exactly what is wrong. I do vape some really thick stuff. Thanks. I hope you get yours soon.

Can someone explain the tank to me? I have been off the forum for a while and seen it on Cignot site and come here to investigate. What is the big difference between it and the Ego?

The big difference is that in lieu of a cartridge with fiberfill that holds liquid and allows it to slowly drip to the atomizer, there is a reservoir of liquid called the tank that has only liquid (no fiberfilling) and in the atomizer is a piercing tube that pierces the bottom of the tank and allows liquid to flow down to the coil.

Right, I've been using mine for a day now. I was a bit concerned with the prospect of melting plastic, but it's not melting. There's no melty plastic taste, at all. I got a couple dry hits when I got a little overzealous on my puffing, but that's because i use very thick juice. I found out that I can do a few pulls without engaging the battery to get the juice wicking properly again, and then it's all good. My ejuice flavours taste better, too. (I mixed up some depressing DIY, which were made usable by this little device.)

Sure, I've only had this thing for a day, but I'm already loving it. It's not leaking, at all. Sure, there's condensation in the atty, but that's not a big deal, at all. I'm not wasting a box of tissues per day, mopping up leaks. I get great flavour without having to drip every few seconds. I don't really completely mind the idea of dripping, but it's not really convenient while at work or behind the wheel.

Hi Vicky- I am looking to upgrade my pink 510's to an EgoT. I have been out of the loop and out of these forums for the past couple of months, but am slowly trying to gather info about these. They seem to be the answer to my prayers. I have had my 510 since Sept. I also had a 510 pass-thru and learned about dry-burning my atomizers instead of cleaning with alcohol. That worked well but now my pass-thru no longer works- it has an in-line battery so there is no way to tell if the unit itself is dead or just the battery is dead. The 510's that I originally ordered also has a PCC.
I was looking at the 1,000 MaH Ego T (pink of course). It seems as if the 1,000 MaH do not look as short and stubby (cigarish) as the other Ego's? I cannot find actual pictures- side by side comparisons of them anywhere here on the forums, youtube, or the internet itself.
My 2nd question is- do the Ego T kits come with a PCC (for the 1,000)? I am ready to order but just have those couple of questions
Thank you!!

There is a PCC for the eGo and it does charge the 1000. Email me about testing the passthru... voltmeters are a vapers friend!

a few last (really dumb) questions before i make my purchase!:

seeing as the 1000's are only a few dollars more, what would be the advantage of ordering two 650's or one 1000 and one 650? since manual batts last longer, why aren't most people buying them? does the charger in the kit charge both 650 & 1000's of either type (manual or non)? if you have a black tank, are you unable to visually tell when they are running out of juice?

hey, i warned ya about the questions being really dumb, lol...thanks for any insight you can offer. :)

That's why I ordered both of my batteries in the larger sizes. Also, I opted for the white/clear tanks. I've been using them for nearly two weeks, and absolutely love them. Vicky even sent a replacement tank within a few days. (The bottom cap on one of them was defective.) Y'just gotta love good customer service! :)

I got a great stick figure on the paper with my ego-t order. It was so nice and the service was quick. I plan on ordering a lot more from cignot soon. I love the ry4 i received.

One problem i have is leaking when i'm on the go and active. If i'm at work and jumping in and out of cars (i work at a car auction) the tanks i used leaked all out and came out on the battery side. When i took off the cone atty it was covered all over the battery threads and inside. I don't know if this is common or if i can't have it in my pocket while being active.

A little late with my reply... I do hope you emailed me as I get emails immediately...

Most people do get manuals, and the choice of 650 versus 1000... well size does matter in batteries and the 1000 is longer and some people simply do not like the additional length...

Yes, the charger charges eGo and eGo-t.... 650 and 1000.

The current black tanks have to be pulled out to see the juice level. I have new ones coming that have a clear stripe up them so you will be able to see the level without pulling the tank off.

and... no question is dumb!
