Hi,
I have noticed a problem of burnt vape from LR ego-t atomizer, on a 650 or 1000 mah ego battery.
And as consulted here, was told to mix my juice with PG or water in order to lower the viscosity.
I'm allergic to PG, thus my only option is water.
I'm lucky to work in the ER, so I took a nice syringe, and an ampoule of W.F.I (water for injection, that pure h20 with no salt, as in nacl 0.9% physiological water for injection)

I tried 10%.20% ad 30%,but haven’t really figured the right amount…
In 30% water ,the LR went to gurgle, and the taste was faint, with 20% every thing was fine, but still a faint taste…
On 10% some liquids started having again the burnt tast ,but less often as when pure VG.

What should I do?
How to I enjoy massive smoke plume, and full rich taste, without PG? IMG_20120512_130128.jpg

You need very little distilled water for VG juice just enough to make it a bit thinner . But it depends on what you want to use it with and how long you have used that piece of equipment for as well can make a difference . Are you using variable voltage ? The tank systems don't work very well at any time the problem being the time it takes them to wick through to the coil . If you use it too fast or draw for too long you might get that burnt taste . There is so much else you could be using other than a tank but even if you stay with a tank you might try the ego-C that has changeable heads that you can change more often .

led_cartomizer_and_cleromizer_3_5ml.jpgCurrently on a regular 3.7.
but I have read so many reviews about the consistency lack of the tank system, and as you said I can feel the difference depending on the age of the atomizer.
I thought cleaning it will redeem me. but it only bought me some extra time.

next week I'm due to receive a big package with more than 200$ worth of equipment, for the first time I will try all other ways to vape, cause until now,tank+3.7 was the only vape I knew...

really excited to try the cartomizer, the clearomizer, the VV ego twist, and the DCT or LR coil.
even ordered a cool 3.5 DCT clearomizer, that has a green led in it, creating a luminous green light while vaping, and gives the effect of alien like fluid smoking (I already see how clubbers will like this arrangement):p

The wick height in your T atomizer is probably the problem. The fiddle factor and muted flavor are the main reasons that most give up on those tank systems. You will normally find that it only takes one or two drops of water/10ml of e-liquid to thin VG enough to wick.

Agreed. The tank systems advertise as easier to use and whatnot, but in between you end up doing a bit of maintenance that gets you (typically) little results. You really don't need that much DW (distilled water) to make a difference and get your liquid equipment ready. Too much and it can cause some problems along with thinning out your flavours and nic level. It seems that you will have some more goodies to try out and find a good point for you to be at with your vape. Be patient and keep at it, you will be there in no time!
