Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it - since you posted your pictures I have become fascinated by it and am giving it some serious thought. I love the looks and the pure simplicity of use factor along with quality of vape power is very tempting!

And soon you will have a cool box mod too ! (right?)

Ya know it was a bit of a blond moment, I was reading the initial review and used the fast reply totally overlooking the pages of conversation that followed. BUT, basically looking for input on the flavor boost option experiences of any and all. I can not help but keep "finding" my way back to their site and that even though I said not more new juices for a week or two...well ya' know how it goes. p.s. I am dying here looking at the flavor choices...bacon and waffles, Bacon, Oh my!

Hmmm, I dont think I have been doing the shake. I need to remember that. I was poking around their site and looking at the flavors and couldnt help but notice a flavor offering that it appears was submitted by you Juliery, way to influence product offerings! I think the next juice purchase is going to have to be from them! I noticed the flavor boost option looking at their site and it appears based on your post you do not boost, is this correct? Just wondering if you might shed some insight into your experience with boosting their flavors.

Hey there and welcome. I smoked Newports for years, and then quit for a year, then picked it back up for about 15 months smoking camel menthol lights. My point being I was a menthol smoker my entire smoking life. As it turns out I am finding that with vaping comes so many choices that menthol has really not been the vapes I am finding myself enjoying more. Its odd to me but thats what I am finding - shocked me to say the least. I did order a bottle of the mentha from the vapor talk store here and it was just a bit too intense of a menthol. That said I am finding it to be a great add in to several other favors that I never thought I would like - like french vanilla and key lime pie. It adds that bit of minty freshness to a otherwise subtle flavor. I have found that this taste sensation is very different and trying to replace it with something exactly like what you are moving away from is far to challenging, but instead looking at favors and favor combinations that you like in other things like food and beverages might work just as well - if not better. Just a thought please take it for what its worth, one mans opinion.

Damn you all...you make my MUST NOT ORDER MORE JUICE internal brain chant very ineffective...hehe BTW, I found their website to be a bit of a challenge. It took me a bit to find where their actual mixes were. I got it now, but they could you a bit of a redesign in my oh so humble opinion!

I would dare to say you would get the same result in just about any state - sadly

A quick word of caution - I purchased my eGo here at the VT store and it came with the two Attys and cartridges but the carts had no filling, luckily I also ordered a package of five cartomizers and I was able to use them. So basically I have two Attys that are still unused since I did not have anything to pack into the cartridges. So just be aware of that. I have also since purchased the eGo-T Atty and tank cartridges and have not looked back at the cartos since.

So I am vaping for about a month and have had my eGo for just over two weeks and my T-Atty for a week! It seems like such a short time in the grand scheme of things and it struck m this evening just how quickly you beqin feeling like you get this and begin to stretch your own thinking and boundaries in figuing out what works best for you as your own vaper! Tonight as I refilled my tank with some very yummy, but somewhat subtle French vanilla I got from vaperite that I would like this with just a bit more punch. Then it dawned on me that that bottle of VT mentha I got, that I found to be a bit much might make an interesting little addition. So I fill the tank and add in a few drops of the mentha and wow what a nice little extra kick that added. Just a few weeks ago I tripped my way into this forum feeling so confused and just a few weeks later I am mixing flavors that do not sound like they make sense together and finding myself coming every closer to that sweet spot! It's an amazing journey that I know still has an very long road ahead, but yet tonight, at least for a few minutes I do not feel like a noob, and and having a tasty vape typing on my iPad and thinking - life is pretty good right now! Thanks to this forum for helping make this moment !

It is an interesting question - most policies ask in terms of the last 12 months and often use language to the effect of have you had any tobacco related products in the past 12 months, this ensures they cover chewing tobacco and other smokeless tobacco products. Its a bit of a tough call since nicotine is a tobacco extract, but its not tobacco..

Ego Tank Conundrum (And New Carto Issues)
ripple replied to AimeeG's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I do love my TAttys as well - I do notice condensation that builds up in the air channel portion of the tank, when you get too much condensation it clearly does negatively impact the vapor flow, when that happens I let the tank empty then rinse her out and go to a dry one. -
I Don't Know How To Vape Properly After Two Weeks
ripple replied to Hank's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I think I got lucky and saw a video early on that talked about the holding it in the mouth while on the inhale then taking it into the lungs so thats the only way I have been. I will say that I visited a local casino this weekend past and I was really stuggling badly wanting an analog - somehow I made it though without bumming one - I think it helped I was losing and got out of there. I think I have begun to truly turn the corner myself, and really enjoy vaping more. In fact just ordered several new flavors this morning from vaperite as well as a sample pack so basically have eight new flavors on the way and am already thinking about a box mod. I began this journey treating vaping as a one to one replacement for smoking. Replicating my smoking pattern with vaping and it wasn't really working for me overall. Sure I was liking the flavor and the TH but the experience was lacking for me. I have been settling into more of an approach of vaping as something entirely different with its own rituals and experience. As I let go of the smoking rituals and embrace these new ones - combined with the tasty vapes and techniques things are settling in. It helps to read through threads like this and learn from each other, to understand techniques and habits that are working. I will say I have had several sore throats, which has concerned me to some degree but like anything its a body adjustment I believe. Thanks for all the sharing and insight this thread has added to my insight on how to, the basics! Its great. -
I spent several hours last night looking at this and videos of it, I have a funny feeling that I might be watching for an ordering window. Nice photos btw, very nice indeed!

Ego Tank Conundrum (And New Carto Issues)
ripple replied to AimeeG's topic in General Vaping Discussion
You know in hindsight I am thinking my atty was just getting gunked up, switched over to the other atty that I cleaned the other day and used a different tank and all is well, but I still think I am just going to discard the tank that I was getting the burnt taste from. Being a noob still sometimes its hard to know the cause of your issues since you still dont have the experience to know. Anyway back in business and doing good. -
It is worth noting that American Airlines has actually amended their policies to expressly banned the activation of e-cigs "As a result of Federal legislation effective July 1, 1997, all American Airlines and American Eagle flights are nonsmoking. In addition, the activation of electronic “e-cigarettes” is not allowed nor is smoking permitted on any of the flights operated by American’s codeshare partners, including those who belong to the global oneworld Alliance. However, SNCF French Rail in Europe still allows smoking, and American codeshares on many of SNCF’s rail routes to and from Paris." Just thought it was worth mentioning, to my knowledge they are the only airline to have done so.

Ego Tank Conundrum (And New Carto Issues)
ripple replied to AimeeG's topic in General Vaping Discussion
Okay so clearly this is a traveling jinx! This morning I refilled a tank and popped it on and suddenly - BURNT taste! In a word - POOP! -
Anyone get the button protector/cover? I am wondering if this is a good idea for travel/pocket - I realize is a couple of bucks and no biggie - just wondering if this would be a good preventative idea?
-
Well I think I have the benefit of being so new I have not used an LR atty yet so I suspect I do not know what I might be missing! Anyway - new question for the gang! So how long are you looking at, or getting out of a tank cartridge? I got the atty and tanks last saturday and have been using 2 tanks all week, swapping back and forth and sense I am getting some leakage out of them at this point. It would make sense to me that repeatedly inserting them, and removing them from the spike is likely to result in some expansion of the hole over time. With each tank costing about a buck fifty I am good with getting a week out of one, but just want to see if anyone else is seeing the same lifespan. Anyone else have enough time under their tanks to see the same?
-
I admit, I enjoy the crackling sound....yep!
-
I was wondering the same, think I will post that in the sub-forum and see what Chris has to say about that!
-
I did see the same video about the darker juices and like you I am still quite the noob with only a few weeks of vaping under my belt. Right now I have six juices (actually not that bad a collection I guess) and my two darkest juices are my colada from the VT store and fmy French vanilla from vaperite (Yum might I add) both of which I would say are no darker than say a Sam Adams beer. Both have vaped perfectly fine with the tank. Not entirely sure if that helps but that's all I have to offer!
-
Okay, this is still a fairly noob type question but how often would you clean a tank atty?
-
As far as the battery, I have the standard and I am getting a solid day out of it as well. I have been averaging about a tank and a half, to two tanks a day all on the same battery so I think the standard is just fine. Given I am only on my fifth day with it I can not speak to atty life - other than to say I am on the one atty all five days with no problems and have just blown it out 2 times and its working like a champ.
-
They appear to be clones and functionally the same. I have watched the Tornado tank videos and everything about it seems identical to the eGO-T I have.
-
You're in luck - I just refilled the tank. I didn't fill to the max (somewhat better results if don't fill it to max capacity), but close and got 25 drops in the tank. That was with a 50/50 PG/VG liquid. I can honestly say I haven't counted that out before since I just pop the cap off, and squeeze the bottle - takes about 2 seconds to fill it.
