    Advice on tank filling

    Well, that actually looks like a good method! It's been a while time since I've used cartos. Just wanted to relay what worked best for me when I was using them. That looks like a good way to fill them!

    Advice on tank filling

    Only time I've filled cartos through the threaded end is by using something called the "condom method". Fill one of the removable rubber caps from either end of the carto with 15-20 drops of juice, then slowly push the threaded end into the cap until it's saturated with juice. Check out...

    New to ecigs and the forum question.

    Welcome and congrats on vaping. I think they do it to prevent autobot spammers.

    Advice on tank filling

    You do need to prime the carto. Not sure what they're talking about the "threading" part. There are a few methods to fill/prime the carto. If the syringe is narrow enough you can put a bit of juice in it, then slide it down the top of the carto between the polyfill and the edge of the carto...

    I am thinking about 100% VG.

    Complete personal preference. I prefer a high VG to PG ratio...up to and including 100% VG. I find PG more dehydrating and harsher than VG. VG feels fuller, smoother, richer and less dehydrating to me.

    Just started on a Genesis W/ Mesh Wick and I'm at the verge of giving up...

    I had some bunk tasting coils when I started out as well. But after some trial and error I realized it was just the learning curve of rebuildables. Now, I'm completely sold on them. Nothing compares to a well-built coil in my opinion, be it a silica wrap in a pene or an ss mesh wrap in a geni. I...

    Nic content vaping. Are you looking to reduce or not ?

    Yes, it's been my intention to reduce nic since I started vaping. I started at 24. Currently at 12. Switching to 6 soon. Hasn't been difficult so far. I still have some 18 that I tried out recently, but after vaping 12 for months, the 18 was way too strong for me.

    What's your rig?

    Started with disposables, then Greensmoke, then eGo, then ProVari. Now currently loving mechanical mods/hybrids with a low ohm coil. Still loving everything from HHV and AVE. Vaping the Noble tonight. :)

    Noble 1 Hybrid in Stock

    Received mine today. Coiled with 30awg and it is vaping so well! Tons of vapor. Perfect flavor and throat hit. My only "complaint" is that the bottom switch takes quite a bit of pressure to make contact. Other than that, this thing is wonderful. Beautiful hybrid!

    New and lost already!

    Great advice, Sandy. Vaping choices can be overwhelming at first, Sharon. For me, the most important discovery was that there is no proprietary system. You're not locked in to one system or another. These are all just interchangable batterys.

    What percentage PG/VG do you vape, and why?

    End of last year I was direct dripping the same juices, one 80/20, the other 20/80, side-by-side for a few weeks. It really solidified my preference for VG.
