Thanks. I had been using a syringe with a tomcat catheter for filling, but for $2 I'll give those bottles a try.
Last question - should I buy two ego-ccs, or can I get away with just one?
That's more of a financial question
I have a separate clearo for each flavor I vape - @7. Most are tabac bcc's for capacity, but I have two eGo-cc's going - one black, one silver with the eGo-c upgrade batt for the smaller form factor. They're what I take when I go out.
Same here (cuz Kent is my hero) (-;
I'll be picking up at least 2 more myself as well as stocking up on heads as much as the budget allows. This clearo and atomizer combination is the least troublesome, simplest yet mondo efficient one I've tried so far.
So yes chartreuse, and anyone else considering the eGo-CC, pick up at least 2 if not more, they're that darn good!
Has anyone had leaks? Today I traveled from Prescott to Phoenix which is about a 2500 drop in elevation. My Ego CCs leaked big time. I lost a full tank of juice from one plus the juice went into the air holes and my mouth... yuk. I carried 4 of them with me. All were full and working great before heading out. Then after arriving in Phoenix, two of them leaked and gurgled from airs holes full of juice. Its a mystery to me why the other two didn't leak although neither of those performed that well and probably had only a bit of juice in the air holes. Also, has anyone used a tool to pop to top off at the air hole slits? The only way I could get them cleaned without doing that was to empty what was left by blowing it out and then blow out the holes. Is it safe to pop that top?
Edit: Correction... right after typing this, it started acting up again. Juice is in the area the drip tip fits into as well as in the gasket area. Any ideas on how to fix the problem? I'm going to put the one spare gasket I have in it though the one I'm using looks fine but its worth a shot and will report back if that does anything.
K... nother edit: I didn't change gaskets but I did take it off after cleaning all the leaked juice out of gasket and tip area. Then I held the emptied clearo under hot tap water, blew it semi-dry and replaced the gasket. Seems to be working okay now. I will add that on both these leaking ones, I did have a problem (for the first time) with a surface-floating air bubble when I filled them. Maybe that was a factor? Weird.

patkin.... I haven't had that happen. I have gotten eliquid in the mouthpiece well before, but it isn't common. I've experienced problems with T3's at high altitudes. Not severe, still vapable, but not the same draw. There is a 'system' - either hydrolic or pneumatic (or both) going on inside most clearos which can be affected, I'm sure.
how do the joye LR compare to the standard atty? bought a 5-pack of the standard but want to try the LR now and i'm wondering if there is noticeable difference in TH to justify spending another $25 for 5 LR atty.
Joye LR heads are rated 1.7Ω
Joye SR heads are rated 2.2-2.4Ω (most meter out at 2.2)
Depending on what voltage, that's can be a considerable difference in watts.
Even eGo-t SR attys tended to produce burnt ejuice unless it was a strong flavor. eGo-c LR heads were too hot for most flavors with 3.4-3.7Volts. The eGo-cc is really the first I've used that doesn't have that burning going on that the eGo-t and eGo-c had, even with the SR atty head, so I'd advise against LR attys.... but your choice. Kangers handle the 1.8ohm coils better for some reason....
Anyone know where to get one of the CC clearos cheaply in the UK? I've still got some Ego C heads that need using up...
What would be the difference between using the eGo-C atomizer Heads (A or B) ?
Not sure what the difference is in terms of vaping the Ego CC Clearomizer with these?

Type A heads have one slot in the spike so the flow is restricted and less likely to leak into the air channels. Type B has three slots which for anything except the B type cylinder eGo-c's, is too much flow.
I tried a type B head in the cc and got too much eliquid in the mouthpiece well, which is where excess liquid ends up. Went back to type A....
Thanks Kent C - they're not exactly cheap, are they? Do they last well?
The problem that I had with the old Ego C tanks was that they whistled, delivered little vapour and tasted of plastic. If this tank cures all those problems then it might be worth it as I have about 8 attys left.
It could be that I was using them wrongly and I'd be really pleased to know if that was the case!
(Was it just me or did the plastic bit in the mouthpiece ALWAYS come out?)

They are well built. I don't see a problem with them not lasting - I had some of the very first ones.... no problem there. All parts are better isolated than the c's.
There were many 'tricks' to vaping eGo-t's and eGo-c's - most of them posted here.... I got good vapor (I'm all VG) and I was lucky with the c's or I did those things necessary to make them run well. I found the silicone caps helped with the t's but the hard caps better on the c's for some reason. Prepunching the tank was essential - or cutting off the 'chads'. Power vaping created too much internal pressure and would cause leaks. Slow draws were best. And LR's were just too much wattage, imo. Katya, Scottbee, me and a few other vets did well with them for over a year but we communicated to each other about problems. Vicki's (from cignot) cleaning and wicking videos helped.
I never got the plastic taste - my aversion is to metal and all of that may be genetic or just different buds firing
I've got more than 8 type A attys, which tends to reduce the overall cost. For you, it may not be worth it. While I have two cc's going and I DO like them and the flavor is great, I still prefer the Tabac BCC's for my other 5 flavors. I have a PV for each flavor.... When I tried the T2's, I changed all eGo-c's over to the T2's.. they were that much difference in 'fuss'. When the Tabac BCC's came out, I switched all over to the Tabacs, because of some problems with the T2's - mouthpiece threading (which was fixed later) and seals getting out of place, so you had to eyeball that on refills.... and the 'top coil waving' thing...lol. I won't be switching out the Tabacs for the eGo-cc's, but I'll keep the two cc's I have going.
On the plastic end piece on the mouthpiece... I never had a problem but had a friend who would always remove those - he bit down on the mouthpiece and almost inhaled one

Thank you Kent C,
That's a wonderfully detailed and thoughtful reply.
I'll dig out a fresh tank and try them again - wish me luck!

If you search this forum in 'titles' for "tips" you'll run across the thread... I just linked to it recently but not sure where...found it

seebo, I've had two flavors where I've had some problems over time with plastic of T2's - mentholyptus from decadent vapours - the most likely to form cracks - and Absinthe - also DV - but only on one occasion on a T2. I'm pretty sure the 'window' in the eGo-cc is plastic and so far - from the start when they were released, I've had no problem vaping Absinthe in one dedicated to that flavor. Absinthe has some lemon balm as part of the mix..... that's the best I have on it.... I've only tried three other flavors - none citrus based.
Has anybody found where you can purchase an original stainless steel mouthpiece for these? I`ve found the plastic ones for sale, but I`m not a fan of the stock plastic one. Thanks for any info.

thanks.
by the way.. i bought some Biansi imist wicks for the ego c atomizers after hearing some people using them with some success. it looks like the coil will out last the wicks. after a couple cleaning the coils still look brand new. to clean the wick i just soak them a few hours in some vodka and tap them dry with some paper and let them dry for a bit. not perfectly clean/new like the coil but at least can make them last a bit longer..really unfortunate joytech doesnt sell just the wick with the mesh.. i guess why would they when they can sell the whole atomizers at $5/ea !!
Biansi Imist wick:
surprisingly, they also sell just the top w/wick, which looks very similar to joytech
