You were getting your analogs for nothing??

I got a Vk from v4L and love it! I also got some green cig carts and they are great! They have a lot more vapor and last a lot longer. Steve sells them also!! They cost more, but IMHO they are worth it!!

you can refill these too!!

I my experience, strong throat hit depends a lot more on things other than the nicotine concentration. Here is how I get it:

- Joye 510 with FRESH megabattery.
- Juice with kick--one I've found is 60/20/20 Camel/Tobacco/RY4, 24mg.
- New atomizer heavily primed with juice, then rarely cleaned.
- Always keep a filled cart on the atomizer.
- Normal round carts, with cap on--melt ridges so it doesn't pop off.
- Fresh polyfill with straw mod--requires some reshaping during the day.
- Top off every three or four vapes (depending on vaping time).

IMHO, the Joye 510's biggest issue is that it takes a while to get it wicking properly. To get around this problem, I allow the ecig to stand straight up for a while after a topoff, LED end up. I top off AFTER a vape, not before, then put the ecig in my shirt pocket, LED up, ready for my next vape. I hate the idea of a pocket protector--I'm enough of a geek as it is. So far I haven't ruined a shirt

HTH,

See? I was not willing to put that much effort into this. I wanted to screw on a carto and puff. For me, the VK was an answer to prayer! Keeps me happy, keeps me off the cigs, keeps me sane without the hassle!

Sorry Jen. I made a heartless little jab there. Assuming you are as cute as your cat, it was also pretty stupid.

I think it was EZ something or other. I didn't know whether to be pleased about it or ashamed of it.

What are your experiences that led you to your choice?

Sadly, it seems that the worst ecigs seem to be the ones that are able to advertise the most! Then they leave a bad taste in people's mouths. Too bad!

My experiences? Well as a person who has smoked more then half her life, I was really wanting to get off the cigs. I had quit several times using patch, gum, cold turkey etc... but was always wanting a cig, to the point of being edgy and short tempered and I hated that! When I was buying a carton of cigarettes in a smoke shop, I noticed an ad for an ecig and was intrigued. It was crap of course, but just my limited experience with it made me see the potential. This was it! So I got online and started exploring the possibilities and found this board, which lead me to the Titan 510. Won't bore you with the details of the poor customer service I received, but will tell you I found the 510 far too much hassle just to get a decent hit. I work full time, have a teen ager, and don't need another hobby! I thought about buying a mod but didn't think it would look very lady like hanging from my lips. I read about the VaporKing and decided to give it a try. I don't need to tell you that I have been blown away with how good it is, and by the customer service I received from V4L.

And that my friend is my story... unless, of course, you wanted to hear my life story beginning from my date of birth! Facinating story by the way! (kidding)

What's your story?

I'll admit it is a tad annoying to fiddle with the poly crap. I don't mind topping off. The fiddling with the poly can get me annoyed, though.

I am going to try the brass pipe filters per someone's suggestion on the forum. It seemed quite easy and quick to form them and poof -- done. I hope! We'll see.

I don't mind trying minor new things. I'm not a mod person as that requires some mechanical prowess! I'm a computer geek, not an electronics/soldering iron geek. But hey -- more power to ya if you can get something to work better and keep ya vaping!

Depends on how much you vape. I generally go through about 1 1/2 carts a day. The carts are super easy to refill also, and can be refilled up to 10 times although I find the carts I refill don't last as long. As a comparision, I usually went through about 1 cart a day with my 510, but I was dripping on the atty and topping the carts with 2 or 3 drops pretty much all day long just to get a throat hit, so it is kind of hard to compare lol!

So no topping off with the VK? How long to the refilled carts last? Tried any mods to get more life out of a refill?
Trying to avoid another disappointment.
