    Problems after cleaning...?

    Basically I empty any juice still in there, repeatedly fill with hot water, shake, empty, repeat (probably 6 times or so). After last time, I shake really hard to get any water out, then let dry (at least a day and I usually flip them upside down at some point - I don't really know why but I...

    Problems after cleaning...?

    Hi everyone - still very new to all of this, but I'm a work in progress....but while still learning, I hope this makes sense.... I seem to be having nothing but problems with my clearomizers - I have CE4's V4 and these "Mop head" clearo's that I got from HHV's. All have worked fine until I go...

    PG, VG or 50/50 blend?

    Started with 70pg/30vg but I was coughing up a storm and it was way too harsh on my throat. Went down to 60/40, which was better but I was still coughing - and now I'm at 50/50 which seems to be perfect. After a week of 50/50, I've vaped a little of the 60/40 and it bothered me less, but I...

    Brand New & Ready to Learn

    Congrats and welcome! :toast: Don't second guess your choice - I think vaping is multi-layered and each layer is a stepping stone. I started with the mall kiosk type and it was ok. Even tried the disposable Blu (which for me was god awful! :ohmy: ) Finally, I found ECF.... I now have an...

    Why a cig-a-like while driving/in public?

    I don't use a cig-a-like in public, but I can understand why some might - being a newbie, right now I'm using an 1100 mah Ego-T with a CE4 clearo on it...I do have this slightly irrational fear of being pulled over and having to explain, with my limited vape speak, to a cop what it is and that...

    Welcome Watson!! :toast: I started with a mall kit last year and it was an epic failure for me. Bought an Ego-T kit that was recommended here in January and now that I've finally got the flavor/strength sorted out, it's been great. Great people and information here! :)

    Newbie ...coughing bad!!

    I could have written this post....as a matter of fact, I did write one just like it!! :blush: I was in the same boat, coughing with each draw on the e-cig. It got so bad that I walked away from the whole idea of it for a while. Then I wrote a post like yours, got tons of great advice and...

    My intro and hello

    Welcome!!! :toast: Sitting outside sounds delightful - it is cold, wet and windy here in NJ, and our poor shore is being battered again! But soon...soon the sun will shine and we'll be outside again! I can't wait! :) Finding the right juice is an adventure - I thought I'd be the desserty...

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    I've read so much about Mt. Baker Vapor on here over the past few days, I had to place an order! So...I have Vanilla Ice and White Out on their way - can't wait to try them!

    Newb and confused :)

    Hi there - and welcome! :toast: I'm too much of a newb to answer most of your questions, but I did want to say that juice is very subjective! Never having been a menthol smoker (well, a few times - 25 years ago!!), I thought I'd be a total sweets/desserty type - nope, not at all. Turns out I...

    Um.... Just curious....

    Just an fyi - here's a picture of the same clearo but a new one - the way it looks here, it never would have occurred to me that it would separate as it did.... but, lesson learned!

    Um.... Just curious....

    Thank you!! I will check them out!! Oh, and I did throw that one out and I'm probably going to toss the others I have like it - the first batch (from where I got the Ego-T batteries) have not been a problem!! :)

    Um.... Just curious....

    Thanks guys, as always for the info - it never occurred to me that it was meant to come apart!! :blush: But retrox is right - I went to unscrew it off the battery and think I unscrewed the clearo instead - and it just took me by surprise when juice went everywhere!! It's funny though (to a...

    Um.... Just curious....

    As a newbie, I've had a few bumps in the road this week - one battery died after only a few weeks, though I really hadn't used it..... (I think some liquid leaked on it), another battery had the button get stuck (freaked me out as I didn't know how to turn it "off" then - finally got it popped...

    I'm one who can't stop coughing....

    I just wanted to come back and update everyone who was so helpful with their tips!! :) To be honest, I got so frustrated, I just kind of walked away from all of this for a while - then went to go back, and one of my batteries was a goner (the clearo was still on and I think some of it leaked -...

    Newbie question

    Yep, it's super easy - just be careful when you take the mouthpiece part off, as there is a tiny little plastic ring on it - you don't want that to fall off as it helps seal it tight when you place it back on. But, I was still afraid I was going to screw up when filling it, so I did a search on...

    Donating unused equipment

    I've been meaning to ask about this myself - I have some juice that I know I'm never going to use so I would love to give it to a good home(s). Are those threads where I would post it as well? :)

    I'm one who can't stop coughing....

    Funny you ask that - I have a whole variety but have found that I have more of a problem with the really sweet, syrupy ones - butterscotch I didn't like at all flavor-wise, caramel was ok, but the coughing bad. I have a peppermint taffy, raspberry lemonade and one called "one classy mix" all of...

    I'm one who can't stop coughing....

    Thanks so much - I will keep trying and experimenting with different mixtures! I think what got to me is that my husband (who was the child of chain smokers and smoked from about 14 until he was 23....he woke up one day coughing up a storm and quit right then and there and never looked...
