    Cleaning

    A piece of nylon stocking placed over the hose, and held in place with a rubber band, should work.

    Drat! NJoy Atomizer Went Kaput!

    Since you started posting about your foul tasteing atomizer, my own NJoy atomizer has been tasting bad. Sort of a wet pipe taste. Blech.

    Get to know your fellow addict

    Lordy lordy windblown - you are quite shy. The nice thing about this forum is that it is quite diverse and one need not hide ones true self. Of all the people here I am probably the least well educated. I took my GED at 17 and never went to College. I never did have grand career goals. My...

    Travel and Vaping E-smoking on an airplane?

    Better to just send your e-smokes by express delivery to your destination.

    expiration date for cartridges

    Technically the liquid should not go "bad" as it is unlikely to harbor pathogens. PG is considered a preservative because it inhibits bacteria growth. However, over time the liquid will begin to break down. It will loose its effectiveness, may begin to harden as water evaporates and may...

    Get to know your fellow addict

    Gee Bob - geezer indeed. My mom's boyfriend (65) just took a river rafting guide course and then guided his own raft with 6 people down a class 4 river. For a week. He is a geezer :lol: His mom (age 92) still travels the world - alone. My mom (age 62) and her sister (age 73) still...

    Manufacturers/Suppliers: What's in your cartridges?

    I must be loosing it. I know I posted earlier. The silicone I was refering to is the adhesive at the bottom of the filling. Not the filling itself. The filling is plain ole polyester and or nylon combo. I am certain of that as a fiber artist and hand spinner (the yarn you dolt -not the...

    Get to know your fellow addict

    As I read the posts I am gleaning a little about each of you. But this is one forum where I feel I can truly be myself - thanks to you wonderful people. So I thought it might be time to get to know one another a little better. (eh- that line is a little creepy) My name is Suzette. I am from...

    Manufacturers/Suppliers: What's in your cartridges?

    I think it is silicone because it has the same texture and consistency as caulk- it stretches! Although I confess, it could be a lot of things!

    Travel and Vaping E-smoking on an airplane?

    I got out my trusty EMF meter today and I can happily say that you won't die of radiation from it. When the light is lit and one is dragging on it (when the battery is putting out the most power) the e-cig (NJoy model) only gives off less than 1 milligauss electromagnetic radiation. I admit my...

    New(ish) study demonstrates power of nicotine addiction

    One area I would like studied is how smoking affects pregnant women. When I was pregnant with my son I had no trouble quiting. It was the only time I found it easy. But, when he was about 6 months old, my milk began to dry up. As soon as it started drying up I began to crave cigarettes. One...

    Odd taste coming out of my NJoy

    Use tweezers (the really fine pointed type) to pull out any fibers stuck in the atomizer head. Then blow through the battery end. Liquid gets under the bottom plate of the atomizer and gets gross ;) Blow hard and several times until there is no more moisture coming out. You can rinse if you...

    Manufacturers/Suppliers: What's in your cartridges?

    Silicone adhesive Trog. At least this is true in my NJoy and e-cig carts. The super cig carts actually appear to use latex (or derivative). I hope not as some people are allergic to latex.

    Manufacturers/Suppliers: What's in your cartridges?

    If you have too much fiber there is less air space (the fibers compress) and thus the fiber, no matter the volume or mass, will hold less liquid.
