    SO, back to basics. I've just charged up my 2 Ego C batteries, a bunch of fresh carts and a selection of juice to beat the band. This time I'm determined to do it properly without any stupid excuses (hmm we'll see).

    Anyway here are a few things that are plaguing me, wonder if any of you might have some advice..?

    Carts: I don't smoke much, will possibly only be vaping in the evening and when I go drinking. If I pre-fill carts for a night out, will they dry up or go off? How long do they last like that?

    Batteries: Pain in the arse, went for the manual originally and now the battery drains down in my pocket when pressed accidentally. Anyone know of any cases around that would fit the Ego C with a couple 510 carts and 10mls of juice?

    Filling: Condom fill or dripping, I've heard pro's and cons on both sides, whats the general consensus?

    Help would be more then appreciated...

    1. Turn the batteries off when they are in your pocket by clicking the button 5 times till it flashes.

    2. Get a lanyard so the unit is always at hand when you feel the urge for a toke.

    3. Those carts are honestly such a disappointment IMHO I'd get yourself a refillable tank like the Kanger, CE5+ or even an Ego-C tank (not as good as the others though) you wont believe the flavor difference.

    It took me a few months of occasional smoking e.g. one a day + the rest of the day with an ego-t which was "ok" before I bit the bullet, bought a variable voltage and decent tank and never touched a fag since - as the flavour was 1000000 times better than smoking where before the ecig was just filling the gap, now it was pleasure.

    what kind of cartridges have you got? do you fill up by taking the top off and pouring juice onto cotton inside it or is it a tank where you can see the juice inside?

    filling the cotton one and putting in your pocket may leak slightly but usually only if you've over filled it it also might dry out after a few days or weeks but not if you fill them before going out. the tank is sealed and should only leak if broken. juice goes off after 2 years so no need to worry there

    Yep - holds 1.6 ml, if I was out on a very long night (+5 hours) I'd bring a bottle of juice as well in my pocket for refills, you don't need a syringe or anything.

    You replace the heads (stringy bits attached) every few weeks when it tastes bad or wears out @ about 2 euro each appx.

    I can't comment on deeveys tank as I haven't used it, but the kanger t2 holds 2.4ml and my original three tanks lasted six months (with a new head every week or so).

    Kanger T3 Clearomizer best by far

    2.4ml of liquid but actually more, get low resistance (LR)

    Totally agree, Im back to vaping, and, as of Today I haven't had a ciggy in a whole month :D

    I stopped vaping and went back on the fags nearly a year ago because I was sick of cartomisers and hate the burnt filler taste you get from them.

    Tried the mini nova clearomiser tank first but that drank juice so fast and leaked the odd bit but was still great. Now using the Kanger T3 and I love it, fill it once a day, change the heads every 8/9 days and it NEVER leaks and ive dropped it loads!
