Default Cartriges - amount of liquid?

Has anyone found that cartridges for the Mini Ecig DSE101 can vary considerably on how much liquid they contain even though they are sealed in a plastic envelope and within a plastic container. Is it possible I recieved a bad batch?

They all can vary from cartridge to cartridge, but manufacturer carts that come with the generic starter kits seem to be the worst. Especially on the minis.

True and true. Sometimes the mini carts are flipping dry!

Inconsistency and unreliability. The buzz words for e-smoking. I've had cigar and pipe cartridges with the same problem. Half dry or almost completely dry on delivery. Now, it can't be evaporation, since they are sealed before I open them. So what does this tell us about the quality of the production of cartridges and liquid?

Yup, dry or half dry carts out of the box are a thing aren't they ?

That's why I've gone to buying empty cores and filling them myself, I reuse the inhalers though and top off as I go through the day.

I'm running very low on e-liquid so I'll probably have to order a bunch of ready to sort of go carts to carry me over the Olympics until I can buy some more juice.

Our guy in the UK, Smokester, has e-liquid. Is that too far away?

You mean some juice from the mother country emp ??

Just joshing, no it's to far really, but it does work out very expensive, not so much the price, but it's the shipping costs that kill it.

The problems of being in a island paradise down here in the antipodes !

I can't get Bickfords essences here for the same reason, well sort of, they don't ship outside the US according to their website, bit of a bugger as I'd love to play about with that stuff and see what wierd and wondeful concotions I can come up with.

I have just recently ordered a DSE901 from the UK. I wanted to buy from Meltrex, but he's not setup to handle international sales just yet. He was kind enough to put me onto a seller in the UK that has the same, at least I hope it's the same, DSE901's he's selling in the US ... got spare atomizers and batteries plus 100 carts with it too

Hi Michael, I wrote to Bickfords to see if they would ship to the UK and this is the reply I got - "We can ship to other countries, however, our website is not set up to accept any mailing addresses outside the U.S. We can ship to the UK, but, as a customer, you are responsible for paying all freight and handling charges, duties, tariffs, taxes and brokerage fees that apply to your order. We cannot accept an international cheque in payment but we do accept VISA and MasterCard. If there is anything else you need, please let us know and we will try to accommodate you. If you wish to call our office to place an order, our number is 1-800-283-8322. We look forward to hearing from you."

They will ship outside the USA so it might be worth you asking how much it would cost to ship to you in NZ.

woohoo yippee that is excellent news, I'll be dropping them a line very soon.

You've got me all excited Kate, It's a bit like letting a kid loose in a candy store

Now to get some 40mg + juice out of loong totem, hang the cost, this is going to be fun
