    GabbyD - I guess I'm going to have to get a pass thru - and save the batts for when I'm out and about. Thanks for the info about the pass thru's. I wasn't aware that was an additional benefit to them.

    This e-smoking habit is expensive with all the "equipment" needed. But.... far better than the nasty analogs.

    I've spent several hundred dollars to avoid spending about $80 on American Spirits so far. I keep telling myself that once I get the hang of this e-smoking thing and find the good products it will even out. I just hope that our hunches are right and that this e-smoking is less bad for you than traditional cigarettes.

    Right now I fee like I am MORE addicted to nicotine than I was, I just have a different way of getting it. Again I am rationalizing that I needed more nicotine in order to wean myself off the analogs and that I can control my nicotine intake by way of mixing down the e-juice. My goal is to get off the stuff entirely before it kills me, I hope. I hope.

    But eh.. if you can't quit you have to do something to try to save yourself right? So I'm doing something...

    it sure seems to be a lot healther--After 2 weeks I was able to smell the stench of cigs after all these years--to think I smelled like that!! The car, house----what an embarresment that was and I did not even know it--thought everybody was giving me the "drama routine"--now with the vaping--no one smells anything on me. What is that worth along with your health??

    Ha ha! Yea, I smell that now too although I admit I still smoke about 2 analogs a day.. (way better than a pack+ tho) But after switching to the e-cigs my housemate says I smell like a Glade Plugin!

    Is that better? I dunno.

    Is this cleaning cycle particular to that model?
    I've never observed my 510 doing this.

    Capt---this thread is from a year ago--todays models do not have cleaning cycles for the most part.

    If the atty is actually smoking, you fried it. If the PT itself is smoking, you fried it. Both are cheap. Always good to have extras for both. I fried a PT. Opened it up and one of the resistors on the little circuit board was torched. Cost me $10, no biggie. Guess it couldn't take my relentless long hits. PTs are great, but are prone to sudden death. Like attys.
    Deciding not to smoke is one thing. Forgetting to smoke is a different animal altogether.
