Default Some questions

just need a little refresher as to how to properly do things.


1. I just received all my liquid bottles from e-cig.com .. took over 2 months but they're here. i was told i believe to store them in the fridge, right? I have a little drink cooler in my room, its not AS cold as a fridge but its very cool, almost as cold as a fridge. that ok? anything else i need to know?


2. I also got cores from them, but they dont fit into the Njoy.. how do you guys do yours? i have like 90 cores now and they cant even go in. i tried pulling the wool stuff out and stuffing it into my Njoy one.. it works, but not very well at all

thanks

As long as you store your liquid and carts in a dark cool place you're good.
I did hear that when you want to use a fresh cart from the fridge, let it sit for a while till it's at room temperature.

I have had carts that did not fit in an other e-cig, I squeeze the liquid out and use it for dripping or, as I showed last night, I put it in an egg holder cup, and put the empty cart in it upside down, and the liquid gets soaked up without having to drip.
That way I always have a full cart ready anytime.

I hear you can store in a cool dark place so as Cash says, drink cooler sounds fine.

I can't use the e-cig cores in any of my pens. I had to squeeze the juice out of them and drip the liquid into other cores.

thanks guys .. damn, so all of these cores are useless now? lol

where do you get more cores from then that will work with the Njoy pen style? i figured these would work cause i thought all a core was is the white stuff inside.. so i figured i could just put the white stuff into my Njoy cartridges then drip the liquid in, i wasnt aware it was the whole plastic part too. they ALMOST fit, but they're too wide at the bottom

what happens if you dont let it goto room temperature? cause what i've been doing is just dropping a few drops in and putting it back in the fridge, and it seems to be working fine when its cool. is it bad for it or something?


OH, also.. when you say you just soak the white stuff, how do you get it back into the core part after? doesnt the liquid just squeeze out when you try to shove it back in? sounds messy. plus i am not a heavy smoker, and a full cartridge of liquid will probably dry out before im even done smoking it, thats why i prefer a few drops, i think its the best way to not waste it. am i wrong? lol

to give you an idea of how much i'm smoking, i smoked about 4 real cigs a day before. so i dont really need more than a few drops a day i think, and i was told if its just left out and you're not smoking it it will dry out

probably LONG. lol

i have about 6 4ml bottles and 1 10ml bottle .. and i dont smoke much really. (i use it like 4 times a day, 10-15 drags per use, so like 4 cigs-ish) i assume 1 bottle will last me a fairly long time

ScoopAndStack

Most people refill their carts 1 of several ways. see the ways listed below
1. Syringe -- Fill the syringe, stick it in the cart, and fill it up
2. Capping Off -- Using an eyedropper filled with eliquid and dripping several drops on the polyester filling
3. Egg Holder Method -- Discovered by yours truly Sanneke. Found here an other way to refill a cartridge

yeah I know that, thanks though hehe

i think the best method for me is to just drip a few drops as i need them since i dont smoke much and i dont want it to dry out just sitting in the cartridge
