Just got my new ego-c, upgraded from a 801. Veteran dripper and the idea of having a cart that I fill once instead of constantly having to drip, especially while driving, really appealed to me. Problem is that after a couple of draws it seems to get locked up. Like sucking a really thick milk shake thru a tiny straw. If I pull the cart out and reinsert it will work fine for another couple of draws and then lock up again. Constantly pulling the cart out and reinserting it is a PITA. What am I doing wrong?

Do you have a link to the device you have? Have you tried a new C atomizer? Are the caps on the tanks hard or soft? When you fill the tank/cart, do you leave about 20% empty? Does it gurgle, spit,leak?
What ratio liquid are you using? PG/VG
The "C" has come and gone from my kit. The EgoX/Imist was another fail in my book.
Check out the Kanger T4, it might be perfect on your current battery.
Good luck
have fun

cart/tank maybe I am using the wrong terminology. The small plastic mouthpiece with the supply of juice that is plugged into the cone/atomizer.
I had trouble with those tanks that came with the kit also......changed over to a Stardust and then Kanger T3 and have been MORE than satisfied since then. Also bought a 3ml carto tank.....all much better than the little tanks you fill with the kit.
Some eGo-c tanks come with the hole already punched, some don't. The ones that don't - we usually recommend pre-punching them, but if you didn't - chances are there is a 'chad' - like in the voting card chads - that is hanging off the inside of the tank or perhaps even on the spike itself. Pull the chad off the tank and check the spike.
I 'pre-punch' the hole using the end of a ball point pen (after taking out the ink cartridge) - the closer to the size of the spike, the better - if it's a tad small than the spike that's even better - it tends to 'hug' the spike when the tank is inserted - less possibility of a leak there.
Check all air passage - along the flat side of the tank and also the air holes by the battery connection. Don't block them with your fingers when vaping
If you're doing that, you aren't the first Depending on your finances, I'd also recommend the Kanger T3 in the 1.8Ω coil. Good Prophets has that as the default ohms in theirs. Get one T3 and then get a 1.8 ohm replacement coil and one 2.2ohm replacement coil in case you have some light flavors.

Kent C-thanks that helped. I found the "chad" floating around in the liquid and removed it. Apparently every time I was taking a draw it was being pulled against the spike and blocking the flow. It is drawing well now. Will the Kanger T3 work with the Ego batteries that I have?
Cool that you found it - probably exactly what was happening since it's no longer the case!
Yes, the Kanger T3's fit on the eGo-c. The T3's have the 'eGo skirt' that goes past the batt connection. Other clearos with the 510 connection only have the batt connection sticking out below the tank - they'll 'fit' an eGo but doesn't look that good. The T3's are the same diameter as the eGo and they have a 3ml tank - so about .5-.8 ml over the type B eGo-c tank and 1.5 ml over the type A tank. And again, they have replaceable coils which cost a bit less than the atty heads of the eGo-c.
Tabac BCC = Kanger T3, btw...

It sounds like you have an eGo-C battery and atomizers. If that's the case, please watch this video from Vicky from Cignot--she explains everything beautifully. I still use my eGo-C atties and I still like them, BTW.
Thanks for the video Katya. I quit smoking with the Joyetech ego-c in June and still use it and like it. Though Ive used many other devices since, there is a lot of good things about the ego-c for me. In fact, have been using the Bulli-Smoker A2-T for a week now and choose it for a rebuidable atty because of how much I like the ego-c. I must say....I love it
Nice video, the bit about pushing up the wicks actually kept me from throwing out a pretty leaky atomizer.
