Thank you, MeowMix. I had bought a couple of Clearomizers with my kit, but hadn't used them yet. I filled one this morning and it was much, much easier than a carto. My sales rep had told me to turn it upside down every few puffs, so I've been doing that. I'm going to stick with the Clears for awhile since, for me, it is taking the guesswork out of this. I'm just coming off analogs, so I really can't deal with much vaping failure at this point. I'm keeping a close eye on my fill level and making sure it stays between 1/2 and 3/4s. I'll see how it goes today.
What is that plastic taste?

I always add a few drops of juice to keep filler wet all the time never wait till
flavor goes
flavor goes
I've been vaping with a Vision Clearomizer all day and haven't had a problem at all. Dead easy to fill, no plastic taste, good vapor, consistent flavor. I'll be sticking with these, I think. I'm finding it much better and am having no problems or frustration at all. I ordered 8 more today. That should hold me for awhile.
Still no analogs, which at this point is my driving motivation. At some point when I'm less at risk for relapse to analogs I'm going to try out some of the tank mods I saw on the atty/carto/tank forum. Not only does it look like fun, it looks like a much less PITA than plain cartos.

I get the plastic or burnt taste when my cartridge or atomizer is out of e fluid... I agree, you need to fill with e juice more often. You can't fill too often! some cartomizeres can be done within 1 hour if you are vaping heavily.
I gave up on CE2 type cartos because of poor wicking @ 5 and 6 volts. I'm all about carto tanks now, but that's a whole nother learning curve!

Clearos are quite nice if you treat 'em right. 
Just thought I'd pop in to say that I recommend carefully ripping the guts out of any cartomizer that you've given up for burnt, at least the first few times it happens. I just pinch the entire end of the filler, with center tube included, with some needle-nose pliers, and twist/pull until the atomizer wire breaks and the whole thing comes out.
You'll immediately see if you managed to get the juice all the way to the bottom of the filler or not when you filled it. If you then unroll it, you can see if there was actually any burning going on around the coil.
Knowledge is power.

I am not sure......here and this is just a idea (i am still trying to figure out how it all works myself) but you said your ego is 1100mAh? and the cart is 2.0 ohms? could it be maybe the battery is over powering the cart? It would be like trying to cook a stake dead center in the sun....
I use boges on both my Reos and only encounter this when they get to dry or I'm vapin to much and not given the carto time to wick up meaning that the filler material around the coil is dry but the carto still has plenty of juice
Hi Constantine. I'm clueless at this point about batteries/ohm's/resistance etc. These are the cartos that came with my eGo kit when I bought it. Do you think they might be wrong...?
Thank you.
That's what I'm thinking as well. I like these much, much better than cartos. They are way less work and pretty idiot proof. I think they made them special just for me.
Sometimes I have the same problem and I use the same method to fill the carts so I know its not dry. A few days ago I had just filled a cart and my firts vape had that burnt taste. I took off the drip tip and looked into the cart and I saw some of the filler sticking up so I took a paper clip and pushed those loose threads back down into the filler material. Problem solved.
that is the part i am trying to figure out myself......( i failed electrical in high school...this is all Latin to me....all i can do is make un-educated guesses sorry

2ohm shouldn't be a problem on an eGo no matter the mah. I'm running 1.6ohm DC's @ 4.5 volts and higher. Course they're in a tank so they're always wet.
