Well, I don't know how it will be with you, but when I first tried the high-nic carts from MyEcig.com, the vapor hit my throat like a swarm of angry razor blades.

Ouch... Are you still using high-nic?

QuietDave, what strength are you using?

I've only tried the Ruyan cartridges that came with my e-cigar, but I haven't had any problems with my throat. The first 10-15 hits I took from this thing burned my throat. (Like UncleMidriff's razor blades) But that went away pretty fast.

The only thing I've noticed is that my stomach is constantly churning and angry...

Maybe the people with the side effects that are bad enough to quit e-smoking could try different types of liquid... The Ruyan e-liquid seems to be a lot different from the others from what I've heard. Or maybe try a drop or two of water into the cartridge to thin it out? That would suck to have to go back to cigarettes because of a bad side effect...

Something is wrong with the poll results as a result of the new forum software I'm guessing.

I'm listed as having voted for a "mild sore throat."

I know I didn't vote that. I voted for "no sore throat."

Hey I didn't notice that. I went and checked and it has me down for "Mild Sore Throat" when I voted "No Sore Throat".

The numbers seem right though. It just has the wrong names under the wrong colums.

Agree, bishy

I had a severe sore throat for about a day after I switched back to e-liquid after using Jane's Smokin' Juice for a couple weeks. And bad earaches. I was glad to read TB's explanation about the ear aches; my doctor thought i might have allergies of some kind.

interesting ... my soar throat didn't seem to appear until I started smoking pure Bickfords or adding it to the cartridge. The smartfixx carts i got might have dried my throat out slightly, but the congestion, sweats, etc... all came with the bickfords.

do carts carry PG as well? or some other type of juice?

Cart liquid is 80% PG.

Same here, I voted for none, listed as mild. And the number of voter names listed for each doesn't match the number of votes for each. And it shouldn't disclose any voter names at all in the first place. Definite problems with this.

Yes. Just about out of carts now, actually, and I'm about to get some in from Crown 7. I'll be interested to find out if the Crown 7 high-nic carts are as rough on my throat.

I'd like to point out that as far as I know, Meltrex hasn't gotten any other complaints about cart harshness, so this is likely just an individual thing and not something wrong with the carts he sells.
