ey tri,
just from my experiences i find if you give it a primer puff then take a drag just enough so the light comes on you get a good vapour hit. i'm not sure if that does anything bad or not someone in here may be able to clarify. hopefully you get it up and going soon. you will love it and find yourself more addicted to buying more of these things than normal cigs. i've only been smoking these for a few weeks and i'm going nuts in buying more. as mostly everyone in here is guilty of.

Sounds to me like you got a lemon. You are correct there is no way that a cartridge is 20 cigs and that is why I buy juice. However, the battery should certainly last more than one hour, unless you are inhaling one full hour non-stop which would make you a human vacuum cleaner. The battery should last two or more hours, it's hard to tell just how long cause I use mine for a while then put it down, plus I alternate between two cigs (actually 4 now).

Darcy you may have something there. Two of my friends wanted white 901's. I quit carrying them when the blacks got popular. I ordered a few. Kept one for myself was suprised at the vapor. Now, I don't know if it is comparable to my black mini, because the atomizers are over a month old and been cleaned. So when my new order comes in friday, I am going to do a comparison test for two weeks, between the white and the black new atomizers. Will let you know how it comes out.

Darcy, Thanks for the heads up

I myself did not like the black 901s I have had either, just did not know the difference....DUH

Is the nicotine in the e-cig Addiction

Kate · 10-23-2008, 03:28 PM

Nicotine is addictive with any delivery method.

New(ish) study demonstrates power of nicotine addiction

I do think I recall reading that rectal delivery methods have shown a remarked decrease in repeat usage, but I think the 4-inch diameter tool used to inject the nicotine played a role in that determination.

What? That's what I ... heard...

(heheheheheh)

Just a quick update re my original issue.

I followed advice and left a battery to charge overnight. I'm just back from college and have used the fully charged battery and popped in a fresh cart. Glad to say I'm now getting a decent smoke!

I'll see how long the current battery keeps up performance for but so far I'm thinking that my batteries were not as fully charged as I presumed. I've also asked my girlfriend to pick up some glycerine on the way home and will add a drop to see if vapour increases.

Thanks again for all the support and advice - in a world where smokers are used to being social pariahs, I've found this place to be such a breath of fresh air (no pun intended!).

I'll keep this thread updated as my experience grows as it might help others who jump on the bandwagon after me.
