    YEAH YEAH YEAH! So, I used the bottom fill method on the clear cartomizer that I'd put the citrus in till the condom was empty, and the wick is all saturated, blew it out (yeah, it was quite full lol), screwed it on to the battery, after wiping both the battery and cartomizer threads off, dug...

    This is a very sweet post. Thank you, from both my daughter and myself. I lol'd about the lighter thing, because I've always kept my lighter right beside me in my chair, and I'll have my vape in one hand and be searching my chair beside me for my lighter when I want to take a hit. :) This...

    I will definitely do that, dragonbone, especially now that I understand why I was leaking so badly! One question that I have left that was kind of buried in my update post is: How do you know that you need to top off a cartomizer? I imagine with the clear ones, I'll be able to see that the...

    Oooo! Lightbulb just went on reading this post!! I can be a little dense sometimes, yeah. :) I didn't realize there was a center tube, which, now that I think about it, I'm having a big "duh" moment. I reckon this won't be my last, certainly isn't the first. Thanks! :)

    Thanks for all your replies. I see that I was probably rushing it. BTW, I didn't mention this, but what I used was a bottle cap with the blunt needle. I tried taking off the stopper thing at the top of the cartomizer, but it wasn't gonna be easy (I have RA, thus bad fingers), so just filled...

    Update: hoo, I don't think the cartomizers are the answer for me. Got em today, with some new juices, tried to fill one of the stainless steel one (which, btw, has this nasty sticky black substance all over the outside of it), but couldn't really tell how much to put in there, since I can't...

    I am going to call mine my lightsaber, and explain that it helped me fight the Dark Side of tobacco. :)

    Oh wow, that pic didn't load for me the first time. Now THAT's what I'm talkin about! Okay, ordering these cartomizers, then crashing. Thanks for all your help, I'm sure I'll be bugging you guys about something else real soon lol. :)

    Yeah, after getting all these wonderfully awesome replies, I pulled the blu out and have been alternating, rather than doing what I said originally, which was smoking the analogs till I get it figured out. I can handle the blu okay. :) Are the boge 2.0 and the ressurector pretty much the same...

    haha dragonbone, I've been told the same about the dorals, why bother? I usually just say, 'well, you won't bum off me again, will ya?' lol. I'm gonna put in an order for some cartomizers right now. :) Thanks!! :) All of you rock so hard!

    NGIB: I got one of the ones with two usb plugs in it. I think it was like 6 bucks from dragonfly, when I ordered my ego-t. We have another one that came with my husband's blackberry, but we need one in each car. Just in case. :)

    dragonbone: I will definitely do that w/ the cartomizers! Glad you got a smile from my first post. I was like, well, it's not really an intro post, but I just felt overwhelmed and sad, and I knew that there are a lot of vets who can help me figure out all the stuff I'm doing wrong, so I just...

    NGIB: I AM interested in bling and flash, because, like I said, I want this to be very different from smoking (plus, if I am smoking something flashy, other people are likely to ask me what it is, and I can spread the word). But I'm with you, I want to make this work to stop smoking, period...

    Good thing I like water and lemons!! :) I keep asking my doc to ultrasound zap the ones I'm carrying around, but he says it's not worth it. And HE has stones. tsk.

    Thanks, WCSR. :) I removed the atomizer from the battery, and just ran some pretty warm water over them. Do you think that will be okay? I'll grab some alcohol when I'm out later today (laaaaaaater today, it's almost bedtime for me now), because I like to use it to clean things, and I am...

    NGIB: also, I am nearly the same w/ the analogs, been smoking for 35 yrs now, 2+ PAD. So, it's good to see another smokestack get off the analogs. :) If I can make all this work out, it's really not money wasted. Hubs and I talked about it when I first started reading about all of this, and...

    NGIB: Those look cool, and solve a question that I've had in my head, which was, how can I get rid of this plastic flat thing? Thanks!! I am not sure about the amount of nicotine, though, because when I got my blu the other day, I actually got that head buzz that I got when I first started...

    I bought the first blu kit for my daughter at walgreens, so hers can't be returned, but it's very likely that I'll be returning mine, because I got it from blu's site. I tried the java cartomizer, and wow, yuck. I do kind of like it, though, so portable and the premium 100 seems to have quite...

    Oh, wait, I think I read that wrong. I was thinking I could run water through them without taking them apart, but you mentioned the coil, which I can't see without taking it apart. I'm kind of scared to take it apart. Is there any other way to clean them? I'll go looking for that answer...
