It is so simple to fill, mm can't say much more Yesterday it tasted very much of plastic with my vanilla tobacco juice but I thought I would vape through it and as the tank went down the taste did improve. So today I cleaned out the tank (well stuck a cotton bud in it and got rid of most of the remnants of vanilla) and filled it with some liquorice tobacco. The good news is it doesn't really tast of plastic anymore just burning ??? It's horrible! Luckily i'm now getting on much better with my artomizers, regular fill ups using the condom method seems to do the trick! Bit disappointed tho cause i love the ease of filling the ego-T. but, hey at least I've got plenty batteries now, hey ho!

I'd recommend the Biansi Imist from Safercigs then, just as easy to fill, a doddle to clean and cheap. But out of stock atm, back in stock in a week or so. No burnt taste, still going strong 3 weeks after I bought it.

the ego-t are a great idea but do suffer from wicking issues.... nice thin PG juices work best. when i had mine i stuck a dart point in the tank hole and wobbled it to make it a tiny bit bigger which helped a tad

Thanks Gordy, i may try that later! Although, as I said I'm getting on much better with the cartomizers now, it's all ben a bit of a steep learning curve!

i always got on just fine with ego-t. using 60/40 pg/vg (my preference). just flavour is diminished but i put a bit more flavourings. that might clog up the atty a bit kwiker tho.

Made the hole bigger and it's working better now, thanks! The flavour isn't as good though as with a cartomizer, i'm not sure on the contents of the mix it's one of Grizwalds?

They are a nice easy to use set up but as said, the flavour just isn't there, I am gonna get the imist atty when it comes back in stock to try, they have had good reviews by everyone, it may be the tank answer for flavour with the easy to fill and carry around use :-)

I think the problem with cartomizers for newbies is that you have to be quite organised. Now that I've got organised it's not too much trouble, i keep at least 3 on the go all day so that they have a chance to steep properly before using them. steeping them for at least half an hour makes a big difference IMO.
tempted by the imist tho, but i've already blown February's vaping budget! I may put it on March's list along with the Paws Mod!

I've given up on this. I've tried with the bigger hole and got rid of the burning, but the plastic taste still shines through.
i've put the automiser and cartridge back in the box, as soon as I opened the box I got that terrible plastic smell! It's a bit of a dissapointment but was ok for the price at least I've got plenty of batteries and a spare charger!

you could try soaking them overnight in some milton fluid or something similar...but i do not use cartridges so i know nothing about them...if you do give them a bloody good rinse afterwards
