Frustrating............

[rkh3]

First I bought the smoking everywhere kit, junk. Now I have a 510 but no matter how I pack the cart with fiber I get 2-3 good throat hitting drags then no throat hit. I am constantly topping off the cart, and changing batteries.

1. Am I doing something wrong or is there something I should be doing?
2. I am buying 36mg juice from awesomevapor.com. Granted I am getting over a cold but I can't detect much taste. Are there stronger tasting juices?

I ordered an 801 hoping it will be better. I can't spend my days changing batteries and filling carts! Analogs are sounding better and better.

Help

First, if you have a cold, you're not going to taste the vapor. I had to use menthol juice recently when I had a cold.

Yeah, I suspect you are doing something wrong as the 510 is a great little vaporizer. But, of course, it's hard to tell as so many things can contribute. I use the PTB Full Plug method for filler: PTB Plug Full 510 Cart

Look for Rhoneil's 2-minute video in that thread...it's a few pages in.

Don't give up!!!

Also, I read that the nicotine one gets from one drag on an e cigarette is 1/3 of what you get from an analog. True?

Someone else may be able to answer that...I have no clue. Again, it probably depends on what mg nic you're using...and since each puff on an e-cig can be different, I'm not sure there is an apple-to-apple comparison.

I got the 510 to work well, but only by constantly cleaning the attys, dripping on the atty or topping off the carts. Then I got decent flavor and throat hit for a short while. I switched to the VaporKing by Vapor4Life and have never looked back! For ease of use, taste and throat hit it is heads and shoulders above the 510 without the muss and fuss of the 510. And without buying an expensive Mod to power it up. And the cartos can easily be refilled and used again up to 10 times. Got to the Vapor4Life forum on this website to see what others are saying about the VaporKing. I find the 16mg just right for me, but the 24mg has killer throat hit and taste...

And whatever you end up using - keep vaping!

manual or auto batteries for the Vapor King??

[Snarkyone]

I don't know about the VaporKing but I too am not all that enamored with my 510. I have a m401 Dragon and it is far superior in every way. I gave the 510 the benefit of the doubt for over a week now with no changes, and you are right the battery life between charges is a big phail with the 510. At first I thought perhaps it was just my unit, then I got a 2nd one and it is the same. If I can find a taker I will swap my 510 for a VK or I will sell it and get something else. Lots of people swear by the 510, I just have not seen the results that I have from my Dragon.

Your choice! I loved the autos but when they came out with the manuals they just blew me away! He has an extra long manual battery that is killer! And the manual passthrough is a must have! I would put it up against any mod, the thing totally rocks!

I know what you mean! I have probably $200 worth of 510 parts and carts gathering dust! I wish I had found out about vaporking first, but I am glad I found it anyway! Totally happy with it!

Steve at V4L is the bomb - he sends all kinds of extras with each order! It is like Christmas when an order comes lol!

OK, ordered the VK starter kit and a few juices. This is getting expensive!
