    Geeking out...Who else

    I almost did a spreadsheet when I started, thinking it would be interesting, fun & informative to see how this "vaping" thing shook out financially. But then I figured heck, one of the great things I've been able to do since retiring is to quit keeping score. One of life's fascinating little...

    Help with juices!!! Please!!!

    Also be aware that vaping technique is quite different from smoking a cigarette, rather more like puffing a good cigar or pipe (though not precisely that either). For best results you'll need to experiment, but I like to push the button a couple seconds before I begin my draw to preheat the...

    Boge Carto's for an 808

    Hi & Welcome to ECF! I'm afraid I can't be any help to you with this; seems to me I've seen these somewhere but can't recall where, and I could be mistaken that such a thing even exists. I love Boge cartos but only use the 510s. I'm thinking if you can't find a source for the 808 Boges you could...

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    Lately I've been using a syringe more often, partly because I usually have at least one right here handy with an 18ga. 1.5" needle on it. I don't worry much about wasting juice since I've been mixing my own, both because it's cheap to make & because I waste very little of it. The syringe fill...

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    Sailorman sounds like you've got this carto-cleaning thing down right! Just wondering, for alcohol are you using grain or high-test rubbing alcohol or something else entirely? As to the flavoring of the denture cleaner I could only presume it to be unflavored; it's the one that didn't say "fresh...

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    Oh well, thanks for your effort Bradder... maybe I can find 'em on Youtube. There are lots of good vaping vids on there, mixed in (unfortunately) with loads of garbage to sell garbage. Oh well, that's the Intertubes for ya. :D

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    Far out... thanks for the tip! I'll definitely have to play with this. Up until now I've only used the condom method to fill new or newly-cleaned cartos, & just topped off from there. I'll mix some especially clear juice for this & try it next time I have a carto in need. Come to think of it...

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    I'll have to check out the Nomad tapes. By "number of topics", are they all over the place, sort of like the T.E.D. Lectures? Some of those blow me away. :D

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    I guess I've tried about all the ways I've heard of (so far) with plain ol' filler-stuffed cartos, and they all have advantages & disadvantages. The only disadvantage I can think of with drip-filling like that is time. It is *so much* neater than any other way I've tried, and with a fairly thin...

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    Nothing to be embarrassed about, we all had to start somewhere and I started off worse than you did (with one of those "free trial" offers that wound up costing me over $100 - but the education I got helped to get me here so it was money well-spent!) I don't know anything about the Mistic brand...

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    Hahahahaaa! You're welcome, but I didn't (& don't) do 'em. I've seen several of Dr. Vapor's that are right informative though, and this one came to mind. He mentions at the beginning he'd just discovered this method so he may have a later, better vid available on the subject, not sure. :)

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    I wasn't very clear on the "top off" thing... what that's about is, after vaping for awhile pop the cap off & add a few drops of juice to the filler to keep it pretty moist, *avoiding the center air tube*. Best way to do this is hold the carto at an angle & drip in the tube just above the filler...

    Easy way to fill cartos too good to be true?

    Hi & Welcome to ECF! First, here's a better video (IMO): A Great Way To Fill Cartomizers - YouTube I would add to this, I do this more slowly than he does & watch the inside of the carto. As the juice comes up the center, sort of roll it around to let it absorb into the filler. Once the filler...

    I am new to this game of sucking the vape!

    Welcome to ECF Flossy, and congratulations on your move to vaping! Glad to see you're having fun with it... lots of folks will probably be around soon to greet you. If you have any questions, comments, etc. just holler! Have a ball, & Happy Vaping! :vapor:

    How to test new flavors?

    I agree, dripping on a good atty is the way to go. I've gotten amazing service with an Ikenvape io6 1.5 Ohm on my E-Power at regulated 3.7 volts. That's a little 306 sized atty but the threading's the same as a 510. I just checked & Ikenvape is out of stock on the 1.5 Ohm at the moment; they...

    tececig, any opinions?

    OTOH I was just thinking, maybe it'd be best to go to Walmart or somewhere & get a prepaid Visa card for the ceiling amount you intend to spend (including shipping). That way your regular bank account would be secured without your having to sign off on anything. (This sort of thing was discussed...

    what is the difference between american and canadian tobacco?

    Couple of thoughts: not sure what's available to you in Canada but if you can get your favorite juice in 9mg nic with double flavor & mix it with sufficient qtys. higher nic (36 - 50mg) unflavored PG and/or VG base you'd be in business. Also check out the DIY recipe forum under (I think) General...
