Welcome to intelliCIG

[Shining Wit]

I've looked on the site but nowhere do they say they make in the UK.

Thanks flyby, it does only say assembled. However, intellicig are a genuine company who have invested a lot into research and sourcing better components, as the Chinese standard stuff that so many people are punting out without testing or even removing from the packaging has a 35% failure rate. intellicig test every single unit and fully charge the batteries before despatch. You would be amazed at how many failures there are on new units, either the vapouriser remains on too long or too little. intellicig have concluded negotiations with an alternate supplier for batteries & microelectronics and a better range of cartridges that give the same back-of-the-throat hit as dirty old fags. The MD at intellicig was a 40 a day man but is now down to 3 a day with the help of the e-cig. It's not always just about faceless corporations or unscrupulous individuals out to screw a quick profit, there are some folk who still believe in customer service and value for money, you've just got to take the blinkers off to find 'em.
Any fool can criticise, condemn & complain and most do.

John, a smoker since I was 12 with no desire to quit, but with a growing tendency toward the e-cig.

Hi!

I'm new to E-Cigarettes and bought my starter kit and cartridges from Intellicig. The unit seems to work well and the customer service was good. My only problem is regarding the cartridges.

They state at the site that they are honest about how long their cartridges last - equivalent to 5/6 cigarettes. Unfortunately, I'm finding each cartridge is lasting only 3/4 at best. After reading at this forum I'm beginning to believe this is very poor.

Other than the above problem I have no complaints but I'm sorely tempted to try adding eliquid to the dried out cartridges even though Intellicig say not to.

I'd appreciate the thoughts of other members on this.

Thanks

I don't see why you couldn't use e-liquid cymrulady, you are only putting in the same as what was already in the cartridges, that is unless they have some magic forumula only their ecig works with I think this would probably have more to do with them wanting to sell you more cartridges rather than causing any damage? if you don't use e-liquid it is going to be quite expensive!

[Kate]

I think Betty is right, it will be expensive to replace cartridges and that's possibly how the company hope to increase revenue. I don't see anything on their site that says your 30 day warranty is void if you refill. That would be something to consider if it says that in the manual. If the warranty is not an issue I think you should go for it and refill.

Welcome to the forum.

[cymrulady]

Thank you both and thanks for the welcome.

I'll order some eliquid right away. Mind if I ask if you know of any uk suppliers/sites or should I ask at another thread?

Oops, sorry I forgot, there's another -

SmokeJuice - HOME

Let us know how you get on.

[cymrulady]

I've had a look around the sites and I'm umming and ahhing about which one to get but thanks again - I'm going to buy one of them for sure (I've not been this excited since I had to choose between a Galaxy or Cadbury's bar )

Just one last, quick question, please. How long, on average will a 10ml bottle last?

Cymrulady

[Kate]

Lol, it's great to have so much choice isn't it!

How long the juice lasts depends on how much you vapourise, I get the impression that around 2ml per day is an average for moderate users. That's a guess though, you'll have to try it and see.
