how is the smokestik. I bought one for me and my wife and i like it, but ended up ordering totally wicked e juice because none of the cartridges gave me the throat hit i need. I paid 90.00 a piece for the starter kits. Worth my money??

Big Rand · 06-14-2009, 06:41 PM

anybody out there??

I have a small problem: I purchased a lot of cartridges from steamz . in but later someone told me that their cartridges are zero nicotine. Their packaging for e-cig (which seems to be a super mini identical to BE401 from bestecig . com) also mentions 'no nicotine'

However, their customer support claims cartridges do have nicotine (in varying strengths). Is it possible to test if a certain cartridge has nicotine or not ?

Since I ordered a lot of quantity I want to be sure before ordering from somewhere else.
Also, being a noob at vaping, i am not sure how to tell the difference by using them. I did manage to stop analogs for 2 days by using these cartridges but the moment i heard the carts might be zero nic I started off on analogs again !

I'm really surprised that the supermini - DSE-103/peewee/npro/SOLARFLARE...etc is not a more common model. I would have thought that because it looks so much like a real cig it would be very popular. Also, if you get the solarflare specifically(from eliquidplanet.com) the performance is top notch. I initially bought a smoking everywhere dse-103 style e-cig which was ok, but the solarflare puts it to shame. The big difference being the performance of the atomiser. The solarflare atomiser is in my opinion is the best atomiser for this style e-cig. Perhaps if more people had tried the solarflare atomiser this model might be a bit more popular.

i Chose the Kr808 as my primary. i have a Smoke 51 loong totem ( ugh paint in the butt), and a 510 yeti... but the longevity of the battery and great hits make it more portable.
i dont have a PCC yet... so i'm staying with my trusty 808 for out and about for now...

Started with the InLife, but PROBLEMS and little vape.

Then tried the BE112, but same problems.

SO, I just got the Janty Stick - Lots of Vape

but has a learning curve - found I have to keep clening the contact points or it dies. Also, it's ugly. SO, I just ordered the Joye510. Good to know so many people enjoy this one. Thanks for the poll!

I like the LTv9 which I got from smoke51 51's other models are ok but the v9 is the best..

I've had pretty good luck with e-cig.com, a company in China with good live customer support. A year ago got a good deal on a basic kit--for 95 dollars, which included shipping, I got 90 or more cartridges and USB cig and regular cig w/atmozer and charger. My cartridges still work but I fooled around with the atmomizers and wrecked them, so a few weeks ago, I sent for the atomizers, which they still have as a separate feature though mainly sell the combo cartridge and atomizer. This way I could use my old cartridges. I never really got into it a year ago. But also, from spiritsmokes, I ordered liberty stix with two combo atomizer/cartiridges. Their cig charge us real good and atomizer gives lots of puff, but the cartridge-atomizer just has very little "stuffing". Meantime, I charged up my e-cig.com with the new atomizer, but didn't get enough vapor going after just about 10 days, so now I took out the stuffing of the very ample cartridges from e-cig.com with tweezers and re-stuffed the dwindling, non-vaping cartridge sheath that slips over the liberty stix atomizer, put it on the liberty stix battery art and voila. I'm vaping away. There are probably better ways to do this. Main thing is, I am finding the cartridges expensive! I think the e-cig.com g prices are still good and they seem to have worked on their service. During the lympics, some folks did not get their orders as they were seized by customs, but I had no problem.

For the one day that I didn
t have anything charged up and nothing was working properly, I went back to real cigs. Until then, for 10 days I was real cig free. I have been smoking over a pack a day for 46 years, since I as a kid, despite any health warnings I have received, discomfort, a few programs---I honestly think the e=cig is my only chance at stopping. I felt better right away.

Scared about the coming ban of these devices. Cheers to my fellow vapers. Emma
