| Ok, I've never had a tank. Since I have one now, I need to know how to fill this thing. Can't bother Mike. It's a holiday! Somebody..... Help?

Er, DON'T forget to prime the carto! Otherwise, the filler will give you a nice burnt taste!
Um, I know this for a fact...

Um, I know this for a fact...  | Steam, mine is the ego t tank system. (le tank) Looks like a clear tube thing that sets down into the cone and I guess the cone is the atomizer too.

Actually, you put it on the atomizer and the atomizer pops the hole open, and then you fill it, IIRC.

| There is a cap on the battery side of the tank that you take off with your fingernail. Fill about 90% and put the cap back on. If it's the first use of that cart the spike has to pierce that cap so it will require a little effort. It will make a small popping sound usually when you first install the tank. It will help if you twist the tank back and forth a couple times to make sure the flow path of the juice is clear to get into the atty.

| And you may want to take some primer puffs before firing the battery button, to make sure you've pulled liquid down into the atty, otherwise you could potentially burn the wick and get that burnt taste every time you take a toot. I do primer puffs all the time before I hit the button just to be sure there's juice getting to the wick.

| Teri - Hit it real easy and wait in between drags for the wick to wick. These are notorious for slow wicking. A good hit on one is pretty decent, you just have to .... wait for it..

| Rose - Here is the cheat sheet.  Step 3) Good idea to fill the carto first IMO (a syringe is a good idea if real thick juice)

| Thanks guys! So far, all I've done is blow the primer through and out of the cone. I'll fillerup later after all the festivities when I have time to deal with it.

| Got one filled. Nice, very nice. I'll let y'all know after a few days if I run into any leaking issues or not. And, one more thanks out to Mike at lecig for the terrific prize package!
