    Suggestions on cutting nasty taste

    Hmm... that's odd. I still feel like you may have a problem with your cartridges being too dry. Have you tried dripping without a cartridge? (Put 2 or 3 drops of liquid directly on your atomizer, with an empty mouthpiece.) If the aftertaste goes away, then you've got a cartridge problem. I...

    Suggestions on cutting nasty taste

    New atomizers come with primer fluid on them, to keep them from drying out during shipping. Unless you rinse the primer off, the first few drags you take from a new atomizer are usually disgusting - nasty plastic/chemical taste with a bad throat burn. It goes away after you burn all the primer...

    does anyone else do this?

    I keep one atomizer just for menthol, which I use when I would have had a cigarette - first waking up, after a meal, in a bar, or anytime I'm drinking coffee, lol. I have another atomizer that rotates through fruity/sweet flavors - yesterday was apple, today is a cranberry mix - in a lower nic...

    Priming with glycerine

    I prime with VG, sometimes drip a little to increase vapor, and use mixes that are up to 70% VG. I have occasional wicking problems, but no damage to any of my attys that I've noticed...

    Some advice please

    There are lots of U.S. suppliers with 0 nic juice who will ship extremely fast, you'll have your order in 2-3 days, tops. Just have a look around the supplier's forums. The problem is, everything's going to be closed now until Tuesday, so whether you order from Amazon or elsewhere, you still...

    what streangth nicotine are you vaping?

    Started with a mix of 24mg and 18mg, cut down after about 2 weeks to just 18mg, cut down 4 weeks after that to a mix of 18mg and 12mg. I'd like to be at straight 12mg in the next month. Especially if there's a ban - gotta make the stash last...

    Some advice please

    You can ask at the pharmacy counter, but they may not know what you're talking about, LOL. I got mine at CVS, in the skin care section, on a bottom shelf. It's used as a moisturizer. I've also seen it marketed as "Africare," a hair moisturizer, in the shampoo aisle. It's a clear, thick...

    Some advice please

    You can go to your local drug store and buy a bottle of VG (vegetable glycerine). This is used as a base for liquid. (Liquid = VG or PG + nicotine + flavor.) Put a couple drops of the VG in your cartridge or on your atomizer, and you'll at least be able to tell if your equipment is working...

    How long does your E-Liquid or Juice last?

    Okay, I really can't believe this is necessary. But apparently I need to point out that my original comment was a joke. So, to set the record straight, I don't ACTUALLY think that any of you have had your PVs wired to your faces. (Not that some of you wouldn't, given the opportunity, but I...

    Has anyone had a weight gain?

    I read this wrong at first, and was thinking, "Wow, you get hormonal cravings for crack .......? That sucks..." But then I figured it out. My bad. :)

    high curve and overwhelming

    One of the problems is that, as you suspected, many of these are manufactured by the same company and then just resold. So a 510 from one vendor will be identical to a 510 from another vendor (with some exceptions). So when people recommend one supplier over another, it often comes down to...

    How long does your E-Liquid or Juice last?

    LOL... I do find humor in people feeling personally insulted by posts that were written before those people even joined the discussion. Also, to be honest, I find it really funny when people get offended and threaten to leave, as if it's some sort of punishment. I think it reminds me of...

    How long does your E-Liquid or Juice last?

    Yeah, I'm just not sure why this is something you want to brag about.... But, good for you, I guess. :)

    high curve and overwhelming

    The problem is, there really is no general consensus on which model/brand/supplier is the best. You've asked your questions, and now you're going to get lots of people coming on here, giving their opinions on the answers. Everyone's opinion will differ, because: 1) People's needs and tastes...

    Talk to me about Pass-Thru's

    It depends on what model ecig you have. 510 PTs have an inline battery, while most PTs for other models hook straight into a USB port, I believe...

    How long does your E-Liquid or Juice last?

    LOL, no... I guess you could have your PV wired to your face instead... By the way, I'm not sure if those "making fun of people" comments were directed at me, but either way, it did make me laugh. You folks are kinda touchy - nic fit anyone...? ;)

    How long does your E-Liquid or Juice last?

    I always assume some exaggeration on the part of people who make those claims, lol. Either that, or they've had their PTs permanently attached to their faces, and haven't left their computers in weeks... ;)

    How long does your E-Liquid or Juice last?

    I was smoking about a pack a day of menthol lights (down from 2 packs) when I quit. Currently using around 1 ml of juice per day. And constantly amazed at the vast quantities a lot of folks here claim to consume...

    Dripping vs. topping off?

    I get better results just topping off - too easy to flood my atomizer with dripping, and kind of annoying to disassemble the thing and mess with a bottle of liquid every few hits. The only time I really drip is when I want to temporarily change the flavor of a cart - a couple drops of caramel...
