    i need a serious explanation!!

    I too started my journey with a Joye 510. I realized quickly that the batteries suck, mine were barely lasting 2 hours. Withing a week I ordered an eGo kit, WAY better. The batteries last forever compared to a regular 510, and all the 510 stuff (attys, cartos, etc) fits the eGo. I have since...

    I finally gave in today and tried dripping.

    Once the new CE2 cartos are perfected, dripping will be old news. I was a dripper for three months until I starting using the CE2's. Only two of my liquids wick correctly right now though, but the flavor, vapor, and TH just doesn't compare to any other method (I've tried them all) IMHO. For...

    cartomizer questions

    I normally keep adding liquid to the rubber cap and pushing the carto in until I get a little bubble of liquid at the threaded end. Then I remove the cap and shake it down into a paper towel to spread out the liquid. Works great for me, and I can normally make two cartos last all day.

    After a little practice.....

    I made my second box mod in under an hour. :2cool: I think I might have found a new hobby. At least it's a fairly cheap hobby, for now. The black one I did yesterday in about two hours. You can see where I had to scrape out the epoxy and re-solder the ground to the atty connector. :oops...

    BWB order is on it's way!!!

    I've got cherry tobacco and applewood tobacco, and love them both. I can't wait to try some of his other flavors.

    Best Drip Tips?

    I have a super-t derlin that I've been using for a few months. I really like it, but it doesn't fit in my CE2 cartos. I might try the Nhaler ones to see if they will fit.

    First box mod success

    After my failure with the flashlight a week ago, I decided to give the box another shot. I ordered my supplies, and they got here today. It took me about 2 hours to finally get it right, but it works like a champ now. Only issue I had was getting the solder to hold on the atty connector. The...

    USPS lost my package!!

    I had a shipment from madvapes that was updated a "mis-shipped" for about a week. I emailed them, and they seemed prepared to help me out. They even contacted the post office for me, but luckily my package showed up a few days later. Just email madvapes, I'm sure they'll help you out if it...

    CE2 Cartomizers = Holy Crap!

    I've been following the huge thread on these since I first saw them weeks ago. I haven't had the money to place a $50 order from China, so I searched and searched until finally someone posted some for sale. Got 20 for $20, so I'm pretty happy. I'm searching for more, but I've got to wait for...

    CE2 Cartomizers = Holy Crap!

    Just got my first CE2's in today from another member that didn't like them. All I can say is WOW. These things are freaking insane on vapor, flavor, and TH! The first time I filled one, I didn't prime the wick, I left it dry, and sure enough I got some nasty burnt taste. I immediately went...

    Destroyed a perfectly good $30 flashlight.....

    Actually it was pretty short lived. I couldn't leave well enough alone. I tried to replace the factory push button with my horn style switch. It was going pretty good, but for some unknown reason I lost continuity on the switch AFTER I had super-glued and soldered everything together. And of...

    Destroyed a perfectly good $30 flashlight.....

    But I created my first multi-voltage mod! So I've been waiting for two weeks for my madvapes order so I could build my first box mod (USPS lost it temporarily). So I get all my stuff together with the how-to brought up of the computer, and start going at it. At about the 5 minute point...

    Backwoods Brew Applewood and Cherry Tobacco

    I contacted Don after reading that, and I'm pretty certain both of mine are good. Don said it would have a definite chemical taste to it, mine does not. I vaped the applewood all day today on an old atty with some TV apple pie leftovers. It was pretty awesome. Only problem I'm having now is...

    BackwoodsBrew -Bad PG Received

    Don't know if mine is bad or not, I fall in the date range, butit was my first order so I can't compare it to anything. I sent you an email about it just in case. I posted a good review of it, in the review I noted that it didn't taste much like it smells, maybe I did get the mad PG?

    Straight from the freezer?

    I keep all of my liquid in the fridge. I can't tell a difference between cold and warm. The liquid is going to vaporize at the same temperature anyway, it may take a second or two longer for it to warm up if it's cold. Also, since it's such a small volume of liquid actually in the atty, it...

    2nd Edition Cartomizers - Won't sell to US now !!!

    I'd really like to try one of these CE2's out, but I don't have the money to buy 30 or 50 of them. Would anyone with the latest edition CE2's be willing to sell me a few?

    how do i clean cartomizers

    I've tried boiling mine with mixed results, some survived and some didn't. I would almost recommend just throwing them away once they get gunked up, they are pretty cheap after all.

    Overwhelmed! I've spent two days reading reviews...

    If you keep up on research here on the forum, it will be a fast learning curve. The eGo/Riva battery is one of the best starting points there is. The battery should last at least a full day or maybe two. You can't go wrong with Ms. T liquids. I would recommend getting a liquid in a flavor...

    Backwoods Brew Applewood and Cherry Tobacco

    I just tried them both on my last wickless atty. They taste totally different than on a carto. Different as in much better. My favorite of the two right now is the Applewood. I think I may set them aside for a week or so and keep with my other liquids so I don't get too hooked on the BWB...

    Backwoods Brew Applewood and Cherry Tobacco

    First, let me say, I've haven't ever tried any liquids that taste anything like either of these before. The only other tobacco liquids I've tried have been JC's Tennessee Cured, and Nhaler 555. I liked both of them, but really never use them on a regular basis. The JC is now 3 months old, and...
