Sure can. i just mixed a 50/50 mix of flavorless 24mg e-liquid and blueberry flavor extract, for a medium blueberry e-liquid. Tastes great!

Awesome. Thanks for the info.

My only complaint about the super cig is that it is cheaply made. I got the twin pack and one of the atomizers has a slightly off shape and the mouth piece is very very hard to get off. The other atomizer has a loose vaporizer chamber so that the cartridge often slides out and into the mouth piece. I solved this problem with a pair of pliers and tweaked the tube slightly out of shape. I have not yet solved the too tight atomizer tube yet though.

Still, I used this little guy all day yesterday and in the nearly 24 hours I have had this thing I have only smoked 3 regular cigarettes. When I had a smoke this morning it tasted like crap. So, even with the little things that are wrong, I am still very happy with my purchase. It was worth the $50.

On taste: The NJoy has a cleaner taste. Using the same flavor e-liquid in both the NJoy and the super cig the taste is quite different. The super is not bad, but tastes more "cooked" and not as clean.

Does anyone else get a burnt taste that lasts for about a cartridge right after the super-cig completes it's cleaning cycle? Just wondering if this is normal.

Hi, have been reading this forum for over two weeks now ( it's nearly as addictive as smoking itself!) what a brilliant site.

I gave up smoking 10 months ago after 20 years and am over the nicotine addiction ( as much as I will ever be I guess :o ) But I really miss the inhalation and hand to mouth ritual of smoking , so much so, that I have been tempted many times lately to return to smoking.

I have been praying that someone would come up with a healthier alternative and after visiting this site and reading everyone's experiences and advice, I have now ordered a super cigarette with zero nicotine cartridges from ebay.

Am hoping that this will help prevent me returning to smoking as am not getting any younger and feel that I have pushed my luck as far as smoking goes!

Will let you know when it arrives. Thanks for all your fantastic posts.

Good luck with e-smoking. I'm impressed because you and I are at exactly the same point in our time away from cigarettes. And I KNOW what you mean ...

Hi,
Thanks for good luck wishes Tropical Bob, Cigfree how's it going for you? are you both using no nicotine or not?

My super cigarette arrived today, so far am very impressed, lots of vapour to inhale and exhale, all parts easy to fit together and was given a charger with both european and uk plug which I was not expecting.

Have posted more in depth about the vapour, taste and feel of it in the section of this forum 'is e-ciggie for quitting?'
Will post soon and let you know how it continues to perform.

After about a month I've had a problem. Has anyone else had a problem with burnt taste and their Super Cigarette? I took a tip from the doctor on the boards and used a magnifying glass and cleaned out some of the cartridge fibers that occasionally get caught in the steel wool thinking they might be burning, didn't help.(major design flaw here, burning cartridge fibers are probably worse than just smoking real cigarettes) Perhaps it's something on the atomizer coil, which I can't get to to look at or clean because the steel wool is over it. So I decided to give it a bath in alcohol, a few microscopic dots of burnt matter came out in the alcohol. I blew it out, re-primed the atomizer with e-liquid, and still the terrible burnt taste lingered. At this point I've got a terrible taste coating my mouth and nose, and am pretty discouraged. I've use 2 charged batteries and 4 full cartridges trying to smoke out this terrible taste with no luck. I Had to get out the spare atomizer and start using it. Any tips?

Jarvis, I've had that same problem with every atomizer that I own.....Njoy, Ruyan, and Electronic Cigarette. It was getting to be such a problem that I finally just gave up using cartridges at all.

At this point, I am only dripping or using the needle method. That has solved the problem, but I would love to find another solution so I can use the cartridges as intended. If it is not burning cartridge fibers, then I'd really like to what it is and how to solve it.
