Ok, the attys and tanks arrived today. That was super quick which is great because filling cartos for my kr8s was becoming a pita (I think both my mega ego attys are dead). I was wondering what I saved my kr8s for, and now I know. For when something else dies on me.

lol Cignot strikes again!!! No one beats Vicki for shipping. Always have a backup.

Anyway my ego batts are not charged, go figure, so I will have to let you all know what I think after my sons soccer game and a battery is charged.

In for updates on your experience with the ego-t type b.

Ok I took the plunge and ordered two regular b type attys and one b type lr atty and 15 tanks from cignot. I understand these will work with the batteries I already have.

Question..... You already had a standard eGo correct? You just ordered the attys and tanks and are using them on your eGo? Is that all that is needed? I just received my eGo last week and I wanted to try out the tanks. Thank-you.
Let us know how these work out.

Yes they fit on the standard ego. I am going to use my two original ego batteries and the four extra I bought in November.

Ok, i have take three hits with the tanks. The first was ok, the second was good, and the third was what I consider normal. Not a lot of vapor, although there was enough vapor (but that could be the way I am drawing though, I only take quick hits). Because, I have only tried this a little, I can't say a whole lot. So far I seem to like it. I don't think I have yet felt throat hit on any pv, so I am not sure if this one has it. As I type this, I am still trying it out and the last hit had more vapor than the first few. It seems to be getting better each time I use it.

the tank wont give you a TH like an atty/cart or a carto. but you should get plenty of vapor, maybe even slightly more than the beforementioned combination. i tried the tank on my ego few weeks back but my jaw got sore from sucking on it too hard (i think i was looking for a th). i still have 7 prefilled tanks left in wraps and couple t-attys. i will probably never use them.

Maybe they will make good spares in case something dies on you, unless you already have spares.

I was wondering if I was one only ones who ordered some prefilled. I wanted to get started right away when the pieces arrived.

It is too bad it didn't work out for you.

I mentioned the finicky wick but, the deal killer for me with the tanks was the washed out flavor a throat hit. They didn't have LR atomizers when I got mine. If they had, I might have stuck with it. I keep some of those as backups to my backups. As it is, I've moved on to different mods seeking vaping nivana. :)

Throat hit also depends on the juice that's used. When I got mine from cignot, they are all empty tanks and I had to buy some juice from madvapes. I got the 24 mg Dekang menthol and that really hit the spot for me.

There's also a slight learning curb as to how to hit it. You have to take a light/long draw for you to get a good hit out of it. Plenty of threads on the ego-t for those who don't know much about it.

My new ego parts are still working well after nearly a full day of use. Before I got it I was partially back to smoking ananlogs... probably because my mega atomizers were failing. Since I have been using the tank I have had less of a craving for analogs.

The Vapor production is good. I haven't used an entire tank as of yet. Maybe tomorrow I will find out if changing flavors without cleaning the atomizer is a pita. It has been working well. It seems to be as good if not better than the megas. I can't remember how well the megas worked because they haven't worked well for some time. I tried getting two atomizers to last six months. I hope these atomizers last a long time. I do know leaking was a problem from the beginning with the megas, and for me getting the right amount of liquid in was a problem.

If the device continues working as good as it did today, I may stick with it for awhile. I am curious to know how the flavors of my juices will taste. Right now I am using prefilled menthol and have no basis of comparison because this is the first menthol liquid is tried... it may not be my thing. Hopefully my juices taste better than before; I could barely taste them with my megas. I was getting bored with them so maybe now is won't be bored. I do want to try new ones but better not spend more money.

I will try to keep you all updated on how the ego-t is working out... hopefully I can find a green b type atomizer for it.

I cleaned and reused the first tank that had menthol. I tried to blow out the old juice from the atty. It took about 1/3 of a new tank to get rid of the menthol taste (the tank has clove in it now). The flavor of the clove is a bit uninspiring, but it is DIY so that could be my fault. I am not sure what to do about the residue of taste left over from the previous flavor.

Filling the tank was easy, but my method is a little messy (and probably will be until I get the hang of it). I put the tank hole to the dripper of my bottle then turned them so the bottle was upside down and squeezed. A small amount of juice ended up outside the tank. I don't have the patience to use syringes because it would have been more work to clean a syringe out than it was to just put my finger over the hole of the tank and rinse the excess juice off real quick. Both methods involve a small amount of waste (like the small amount you just can't get out of a syringe and needle).

Keep us updated on how this setup works out for you. I am planning on ordering the parts for my eGo this week. What size battery are you using on your eGo?

I believe I have 650 Mah Egos. Two of the batteries were from a kit from cignot, and four of the batteres were from a black Friday sale at Liberty Flights.

I have found ego-t kits from Liberty Flights for around $50 depending on the size of battery you want.

I use a 15ml needle point bottle like this or this to fill the tanks. There's no clean up or waste since I keep various flavors of juice in several needle point bottles.
