Looking for some advice on buying a new kit.

[Jonnizero]

Okay. well I have just recently started vaping. I am using a Skycig at the moment and I am refilling the cartomizers with E-Liquid from TW.

I have had a look around the main site and have decided that although the Skycig is great looking, I may not be having the best vaping experience (Although so far I am quite happy)

I do like the Idea and Look of the 510 Tank, I feel it will no doubt be the most convenient for me due to its size and shape, and the Tornado tank seems to be a much more powerful system however I am hearing some very mixed reviews on the effectiveness of the tank system and all together I do not have the cash to throw away on several kits to find out that I would have been better off sticking to what I know.

I'm hoping that you will be able to point me in the right direction towards a kit that will enhance my already happy vaping experience.

Thank you for taking the time..

ego-c are very good changable system replacable attys real good vapour and the flavor is great had mine for a week now and i love it.

If you want my advice and you do.. you know you do lol ( sorry strange mood today )

Ok my set up that i was finally happy with. Ego Passthrough. Means you can vape as normal and when the battery is low stick the usb charger in the bottom and keep using it. You can charge from a pc or usb wall socket or usb car adapter etc etc.

So pretty much you can stay charged anywhere with minimal effort as the socket on the passthrough is a mini usb so common.
you get two sizes the 650mah, the same as the ego c kits or the 1000mah which is a bit bigger but will last longer off charge

Next I would say the DCT as its been a firm fav on here with minimum set up and pretty much no downside. No leaking and no much hastle. plus replacement cartomizers are cheap so happy days.

http://www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk/products/dual-coil-tank-products.html

you will see the plinths on there one for the 3.5ml tank and one for the 6ml tank these just make it look more integrated when screwed on the battery but cheap enough so makes the whole thing look quite good.

the 3.5ml tank is the same width as the battery the 6ml tank is a little wider you tube will be your friend in seeing the two sizes. I use the 3.5 ml one it holds enough for me.

thats it. pretty good set up just always have plenty of cartos spare as you dont want to run out. You do ocassionally get one thats not quite hitting right so if you have a spare you can swap it out easily enough.

I find they last about 3-4 weeks before needing replaced in general but will depend how much liquid you use in a day etc 

[Jonnizero]

lol Oh wow. Cheers!

So I just need to buy the battery and the tank?

[Kenneth131]

thats the plan although I would, as would everyone on here say, its always a good idea to have a backup as its sure something will go wrong when you really dont want it to.

Personally I do have some ego c cones and atomizers but you can buy this later if you wanted to try that and it will fit straight on your passthorugh as well. so lots of options later on if you wanted a change.

My kit that i use regularly

2 x DCT 3.5ml
1 x 650mah passthough
1 x 1000mah Passthrough 

I also have 4 cartomizers as spares when the others drop off in performance.

I would suggest having at least 2 batteries as for the DCT yeah just buy that and it will come with a cartomizer so you might just want to buy a box of 2 spares.

and a plinth for making it look better when on your battery

it comes with the metal tip but you can also pimp out that as there are lots of hard resin ones to pick from

+1,although everyone has their own opinion,and i am quite happy with that,i hated them,there are much better simpler tank systems out there if you look around,for obvious reasons i can't tell you where, which as a fellow vaper is quite frustrating, but, rules are rules. 

[Kenneth131]

hey dan there are other tanks etc but they generally dont have the nice finish of the TW one its just rubber plugs and if you drop it they pop apart with liquid everywhere iv had a few.

The ego C  yeah its a great kit but with the 650mah batteries they didnt last me so i would have to buy a passthrough anyway or carry two batteries which i didnt want to do.

 Plus the wicks were an issue so you end up sticking in a SS wick so more faffing about. I enjoy it dont get me wrong but for ease of use, filling and going about your day I find the DCT unrivalled.

I only ever got 3 weeks at most out of an ego C atty then it tasted slightly burnt.

Then you have the leaking issue only if you use a thin liquid mind you. I use high PG mixes so if i drew too hard on the mouthpiece it would flood easier than your thicker liquids. Wasnt an issue to me but i found i was always checking it in my hand to see if there was any liquid leaking just in case.

I can fill the DCT quicker than an ego tank. Tip off, push down caroto, fill down the side, push up and atach tip. Done no leaking no real maintenance plus i can buy the cartos individually for the DCT not for the ego C so i ended up waiting until i was down to my last two before reordering.

I think there must be something in my logic considering the odyssey comes with a DCT system simply because it just works, Fill up the carto the first time is the longest you will spend then its pretty hassle free until you refill as above.

Simples

Haha see this is my problem... As a new vaper I find it really difficult to decide on what set up to use because the more experienced vapers have either horror stories or utter praise for different stuff. Last thing I want to do is go ahead and spend a fortune testing out loads of different set ups lol.

Agreed. Duel coil tank didn't do it for me, the eGo-C absolutely did. I recommend the eGo-C to anyone wanting something easy to use and superior (maintenance,flavor,vapor,price....) all around. One main thing is changing flavors. You might end up liking many and you need a new atomizer for each new flavor when using the duel coils. The ego changes flavor quite easily within a few puffs. I won't say the duel coils are bad because they are indeed good but not my preference.
I use a eGo passthrough also and would highly recommend one of those to you like ken suggested. It's all you'll ever need for a battery until it dies (well over a year later and sill going). As a matter of fact get 2 lol just in case.

I have a Titan tank mega auto and I love it. It's great for xbox game time. Its about the same as the tornado C flavor and hit but 5 times less battery and juice capacity

I would have agreed with the DCT’s I raved about them until two of them dumped liquid out of the bottom all over my device, on reflection it is probably overuse & the O rings got damaged.
Now I would say go for the eGo C for a simple system, I never really got on with the T Tanks.
Whatever you decide on will be a perfectly good choice but I bet that you will be tempted to try a variety of things when you get settled into vapeing.   

[Jonnizero]

Well its starting to look like the eGo is the clear fav for most people after having a check around the forums and on youtube.

The full kit is really pricey tho! I think right now I will stick to Kens advice and maybe work up to the full Ego-C at a later date, cos I do need a new set up but I don't feel too comfortable spending that much on something I haven't tested for myself.

Once again thanks for this guys. Its a great help just getting your input.

[cyborg]

If you get the DCT remember to give the carto a good prime first & after that everything should be good.

[RichJr]

The passthrough should be a definite
The rest is going to be fun... Single coils, duel coils, triple coils, different resistances, cartomizer, clearomizer, tanks, 510 901, 302, 808, bla bla bla..... everything is different and everyone's opinions differ on them. Good luck

[sh4ggy]

ECO-C gets my vote...well chuffed with it

[ceekay27]

Yep ego-c for me too! Although the DCT's do come in at a close second place!

[sh4ggy]

haven't tried the DCT's yet, very happy with wot I've got ATM...mixed my liquids and love the menthol...just done one with watermelon...mmmmmm abit of mixing is called for
