Meet the Joyetech Ego-C

The long awaited and highly anticipated Ego-C by Joyetech has finally hit the virtual shelves. The Joye Ego-C is the third generation of the increasingly popular Ego series and one of the most sophisticated electronic cigarettes to date. Although the Ego-C features many improvements over its predecessors, the most notable enhancement is the changeable atomizer system.

The changeable atomizer system, the newest innovation developed by Joyetech allows you to quickly and easily remove and clean your Ego-C atomizer. The Joyetech Ego-C atomizer is a replaceable atomizer and consists of three parts, the atomizer head, cover (body) and base. One of the biggest advantages of the changeable atomizer system is the ability to use a dedicated atomizer for each of your e-liquid choices. Using a dedicated atomizer head for each of your e-liquids allows you to avoid mixing your various e-liquid flavors greatly improving taste. Additionally, the changeable atomizer system allows you to simply replace the Ego-C atomizer head if the atomizer is broken or malfunctioning.

The Joye Ego-C also features a huge 650mAh battery providing up to 800 puffs per day. The Ego-C battery also includes a manual on and off switch allowing you to deactivate the battery when not in use improving power conservation and preventing accidental discharge.

However, if you’re seeking even more power, you can upgrade to the Ego-C 1000mAh battery which will provide you with well over 1,000 puffs per charge. In addition, the Ego-C battery features a built in power level display. When the battery contains more than a 50% charge the battery indicator will glow white, but when the battery’s power drops below 50% the battery indicator will glow light blue and when power falls below 10% the indicator will glow dark blue.

Lastly, the Ego-C also includes Joyetech’s double air circulation system. The Ego-C’s double air circulation system provides a much more realistic sensation every ecig smoker will appreciate. The larger cartridges included with the Ego-C can also hold up to 1ml of your favorite e-liquid providing you with a truly unmatched vaping experience.

If you’re interesting in experiencing the most innovative e cigarette to date, we highly recommend that you try an Ego-C starter kit. Joye Ego-C kits are available in both stainless steel and matte black. These comprehensive Ego-C starter kits include all the necessary hardware you need to begin your vaping experience. If you have any questions about the Joyetech Ego-C or if you would like to learn more, visit us at LiteCigUSA.net.

Cleaning Your Atomizers

Atomizers are becoming increasingly popular among electronic cigarette enthusiasts as an alternative to disposable cartomizers. However, many people are unsure as to how to properly clean their atomizers. While often overlooked, a properly cleaned atomizer can have a huge impact on your vaping experience, because left over fluid inside your atomizer can cause stale tasting vapor as well as clog up your e cigarette components. It’s also important to note that keeping the adapter area between your e cigarette battery and atomizer clean and free of liquid or build up is essential to the function of your electronic cigarette.

When cleaning the adaptor area, take a paper towel or an e liquid cleaning cloth and gently wipe the threads that connect your battery and atomizer. Ensure that the cloth or paper towel you’re using does not tear, because you want to prevent any particles from entering the heating coil housing. After cleaning the adaptor area, carefully wipe the area around the atomizer’s vent hole as well.

Another often overlooked method for keeping your atomizers clean and functioning properly is to occasionally drain the left over e liquid inside of the atomizer. One method for doing this is to simply disassemble your electronic cigarette and place the atomizer (battery connection side up) onto a paper towel or piece of tissue paper allowing the left over e liquid to drain out. However, this method typically takes a while, but you can also gently blow into the hole where the battery and atomizer connect to speed up this process. As you blow into the hole, you may hear a gurgling sound as the additional e liquid is being cleared from the heating coil. Repeat this process until you no longer hear a gurgling sound, being careful not to inadvertently blow saliva into the atomizer.

Another method of cleaning your atomizer is to soak it in pure alcohol. In order to perform this method, simply disassemble your electronic cigarette and submerge your atomizer for 5 to 10 minutes in a bowl or pot. It’s also helpful to occasionally agitate the atomizer by gently shaking the container. Once your atomizer has been thoroughly soaked, rinse it off with hot water and then allow it to dry for at least 8 hours with the battery contact facing up.

While there are numerous other ways to go about cleaning your atomizers, the methods outlined above will allow you to effectively clean your atomizers with minimal effort. However, always be cautious while cleaning your electronic cigarettes, because these are electrical devices and can be hazardous when not properly maintained or handled.

Refilling your E-Cigarette Cartomizer Using the Push "Condom" Method

electronic cigarette cartomizersCartomizers are continually growing in popularity, but many people are confused about how to properly refill them. At LiteCigUSA.net, we sell a variety of electronic cigarette cartomizers including both pre filled and blank cartomizers for various electronic cigarette models.

The push method commonly referred to as the condom method is one of the best methods for refilling your empty cartomizers.

However, we only recommend the push / condom method when using cartomizers with a sealed connector battery, because exposed batteries may potentially be damaged from excessive e-liquid in the cartomizer connector.


  • Step One:
    You will need one of the rubber cartomizer caps/covers without the center seal


  • Step Two:
    Carefully fill the cartomizer cap with the e-liquid of your choice. We recommend filling the cartomizer cap about 1/2 to 2/3s full


  • Step Three:
    Slowly insert the cartridge with the connector end facing towards the cartomizer cap while holding the cap upright. Be sure to insert the cartridge carefully and ensure that you’re not blocking the air hole in the battery connector


  • Step Four:
    Once the cartridge is fully seated in the cartomizer cap, carefully remove the cap with an e-liquid towel or cloth and remove any excess e-liquid from the cartomizer and battery connector area


  • Step Five:
    Enjoy your newly refilled cartomizer!

  • There are several other ways to refill your empty cartomizers such as the drip and pop-a-top methods, but we typically recommend the push / Condom method, because it’s easy and there is nothing to take apart!

    Benefits of the New Joyetech Ego-T

    Joyetech has recently released the second generation of their increasingly popular Ego electronic cigarette. The new Ego-T e-cigarette includes many improvements over its predecessor and is setting the standard for all next generation e cigs.

    The new Ego-T by Joyetech features a revolutionary new filling system referred to as the Tank System. Their new Tank System utilizes a sealed tank unit that drips the e-liquid directly into the cartridge without the use of tissues inside the tank providing you with a higher quality vapor and less hassle. This allows the user to drip without adding e-liquid after every couple of puffs. In addition, the new Ego-T still uses the proven and popular double air circulation system providing an incredibly smooth and consistent hit time and time again.

    Another very appealing feature of the new Ego-T is the battery on / off feature. With the new and improved Joye Ego-T batteries, users can greatly increase battery life by simply switching off their battery when not in use. The new Joye Ego-T unit also features a tapered design which provides a very sleek look and feel.

    Another great benefit of the Ego-T is that the two atomizers provided in the Joye Ego-T electronic cigarette starter kit are interchangeable with the standard Joye Ego. This allows current Joye Ego e-cigarette users who upgrade the ability to use both models.

    Joyetech has been a continual leader and innovator in the electronic cigarette industry. Their long lasting reputation for setting a high standard regarding quality, reliability, functionality and value has created a dedicated following among e cig enthusiasts.

    Atomizers Versus Cartomizers

    What’s the Difference Between an Atomizer and a Cartomizer?

    In the e-cig world, a few pieces of electronic cigarette jargon are needed to make informed ecig purchase decisions. Atomizers, “attys,” and cartomizers, “cartridges” or “carts,” are very different components of an electronic cigarette and should not be used simultaneously. Read this informative comparison on e-cigarettes atomizers and cartomizers to decide which component works best for your vaping needs.
    Any electronic cigarette needs three parts: a battery, a heating device and a place for e-liquid. In both the two-piece and the three-piece ecig models, all three parts to an ecig are represented.
    In a two-piece ecig model, the cartomizer encompasses the heating device and the liquid storage in one piece. The cartomizer then attaches to the battery for easy vaping.
    In a three-piece model, all three parts (the battery, the heating device and the liquid holder) come as separate components. The atomizer (the heating device) attaches to the cartridge (the e-liquid holder) as well as to the battery.
    Cartomizers were created by manufacturers as a two-in-one atomizer/cartridge set because of the high cost of replacing atomizers. Cartomizers were designed to be quick and easy ways to vape because of their disposability and cheap price tag. Many cartomizers come prefilled and are available for immediate vaping because of their simple assemblage; then, when the cartomizer runs out of liquid, just toss out the cartomizer and snap on a new one. Cartomizers are growing in popularity partially because some ecig vapers have found ways to lengthen the life of a cartomizer. A huge perk to using cartomizers is their capacity for 250% more liquid than an atomizer, which lengthens the time of a vape session. The main reason cartomizers are disposable is due to the inability to refill their liquid, but there are ways around that. Many e-cigarette pros have been trying various methods to refill a cartomizer without wasting e-liquid. A common method is using an e-cig cartridge condom to push liquid into the cartomizer. Check out this video on using the cartridge condom method to refill cartomizers.
    In theory, an atomizer and cartridge set last longer than a cartomizer, which explains their higher price tag. Atomizers on general have a lifespan of a few months and require periodic cleaning to prevent e-liquid backup. When the atomizer burns out and stops producing vapor, it is time to buy a replacement. This burn out and purchase represents one of the few recurring costs with electronic cigarettes. In a few forums on e-cigarettes, a couple participants noted that atomizers are ideal for trying out new ecig liquid flavors as they hold less liquid and cartridges with different flavors can be switched out.
    So, what are the pros and cons for atomizers and cartomizers?
    Cartomizers

  • Pros: cheaper, holds more liquid, can be reused, easier to assemble


  • Cons: not as easy to try out new flavors, disposable

  • Atomizers

  • Pros: better flavor, good for dripping, last longer


  • Cons: more expensive, harder to assemble

  • For a starter electronic smoker, we recommend the Joye EGO Starter Kit, which features the three-piece ecig model (with an atty) or for a cartomizer, check out our cartomizer selection that features blank and pre-filled cartomizers.

    What to Look for in an Electronic Cigarette Starter Kit

    In this post, you’ll learn what to look for in an electronic cigarette starter kit and how to decide which electronic cigarette accessories are right for you.
    An electronic cigarette is comprised of three basic parts:

    • The Cartridge: the cartridge is the mouthpiece and this is where the e liquid is held to be vaporized, or “smoked”
      • It’s a plus to look for a starter kit with a few pre-filled cartridges so you can begin your vaping experience immediately
    • The Atomizer: the atomizer is the heating element; it’s responsible for vaporizing the liquid in the cartridge
    • The Power Supply: this is the battery; it provides the juice to heat up the atomizer
    In a traditional electronic cigarette starter kit, you will want to find all three elements mentioned above. Sometimes, the cartridge and the atomizer combine to form one unit called a cartomizer. A cartomizer is disposable and typically less expensive on the front end than purchasing a cartridge and atomizer separately. In the long term, it is typically more cost effective to buy a cartridge and atomizer individually as the only maintenance required is refilling the liquid and recharging the battery, whereas with a cartomizer, you are constantly replacing the disposable apparatus.

    Beyond the three basic parts to an eCig, you should consider the importance of some of these electronic cigarette accessories in your starter pack:
    • An extra battery: an extra, rechargeable battery is an important perk for an eCig starter kit in order to avoid running out of power
      • A heavy smoker switching to eCigs should expect to run out of battery life in 4-8 hours
      • An average smoker should expect the battery to last up to 24 hours
    • USB cable for charging and passthrough capability: the USB cable is vital if you plan to vape frequently, especially in an office or location which easy access to a USB portal.
      • The USB cable allows you to vape while saving your battery, never cutting off an enjoyable vape session because of power shortages.
    • Wall adapter to recharge the eCigbattery

    • Instruction manual: eCigs are a relatively new creation, and it’s important to make sure you understand the parts and how your eCig works

    • Lanyard to allow for easy transport of your eCig:, a lanyard allows you to carry around your eCig while leaving your hands free

    When deciding which electronic cigarette starter kit to purchase, keep in mind your smoking needs and budget. It’s also important to consider how close you’ll be to a power source in order to recharge your battery if needed.
