A Few Questions!!

[Jimmy S]

guys, what can I say, the most helpful, friendly people of any forum I have come across in sometime!! If you could just indulge me one more time...I will purchase two of the white e-mini starter kits from pillbox on ebay for 15.99 each, it doesnt say what strength the cartridges are though?? In addition to this, I should also get a spare atomiser and maybe that wicked liquid stuff and then I am set for a while, would this be the way to go then??

[Jimmy S]

ok, sorry bout this, if i get two of these i will have two atomisers, so if I just got myself the liquid I would be set?? ..or maybe I should get some empty cartridges also?? I am taking in account delivery costs so I dont wanna be ordering stuff every week!!

thanks again everyone!!

Pillbox might combine postage costs for those kits if you send him a message, otherwise you'll have to pay twice on ebay.

I wouldn't bother getting another atomiser yet, you can always get one fast enough after you're sure esmoking is for you.

Cartridges don't usually taste the best and you'll want to refill so some eliquid is a good idea. Most people use about 2ml per day.

There are some handy tips here - Helpful links and videos for a new user.

And if you want to know what level of nicotine juice to buy this might help - Eliquid potency

Glad to have been of help Jimmy. I'd just go with the two kits for now but just think of it as one device with a spare atomiser and a few spare batteries. If you find you're using it a lot then maybe order another atomiser.

I just checked the carts I got with those kits and they are mixed strength so give them a go and see which you prefer, then order some liquid. Pillbox delivers very quickly normally next day.

thanks kate, I am going to email pillbox and see what he can put together for me!!

Be warned that different flavours will make the experience completly different each time. Be adventurous and try new stuff out if you don't like it straight off. Gotta be better than the dirty fags anyday eh? My own recomendation is coffee. Its such a subtle flavour that complements smoking so much I think, its easy and delicate on the palette without losing too much flavour, though its not overpowering either. Horses for courses dude.

I like the sound of the 901, I will go with that, so what do I need to get to keep me going for a while, apart from the basic starter pack? Do you guys stock up on cartridges to save on delivery?? Is this liquid just used instead of replacing cartridges?? Can I ask also, do you guys only smoke these now and not real cigarettes?? I guess you dont feel the need to abstain from a real cigarette now and again when you have one of these because you are not worried about the issue of smoking a pack a day or ruining your health?? Or do you tend to have periods where you put it away and smoke for real for a while?? Its all so intriguing to me!! With all the parts and extras you need to buy overtime, do you still save a fortune on real cigarettes?? One other question, just say I only want a few puffs at a time, can you just turn it off and on anytime you want??

By the way, I found this out by reading an article in my local newspaper promoting the Gamucci brand, to be honest, I just presumed they were the only ones who made them!!

I think I'm right in saying that most of the people here have given up "real" cigs completely, some do alternate.
Liquid is the way to go, buy a few carts then refill them, much cheaper.

There is no "off" switch on e-cigs, most are automatic, just draw and they are on only while drawing, same have a button you press when drawing, so there is no need to switch them off.

Im glad you posted that mate, I just emailed pillbox to ask him to get me coffee flavour, let you know what I think!

I refill or top off the carts. but they get a bit worn out after a while. so i need both. carts and liquid. just top off the carts and if you feel ambitious you can take out the fiber and rinse them in water dry them off and stuff them back into the cart and fill it with liquid, especially if you are changing flavors.
