    Cart Mod Weekend

    Cartridge and filler mods I tried out this weekend: 1. Blue foam (filler replacement - works okay, a little leaky) 2. AquaClear filler replacement (flooded my atomizer) 3. Blue Foam Dart (fussy, but worked pretty well) 4. Highping's Simple Cart Mod (a winner) I don't think I want to be messing...

    Firsties

    I've been thinking lately that I want to keep track of my progress as I get used to my e-cigarette (Joye 510). I have a blog at my own website, but I've got other stuff I'm keeping track of over there, so I thought starting a blog here on ECF would be a good way to go. Amongst like-minded...

    New to the e-cig world and need some advice.

    Here's a little tip for you, and I only bring it up because it took me like two extra days to figure this out -- you have to screw the battery in to the wall charger that comes with the 510 kit. I thought you just had to stick it in there and it would stay, I couldn't figure out why it kept...

    What do you miss?

    I miss letting the cigarette dangle from my lips -- it's hard to be hands-free with the e-cig, it's too heavy. On the other hand, it's easy to hold the e-cig in one hand while driving, and it's not a big deal if I happen to fumble it and drop it between my legs -- I won't burn myself or...

    ECOpure Flavours... your thoughts..

    When I ordered my first 510 kit from Cignot a couple of months ago, I ordered a 30ml bottle of ECOpure Menthol to go with it, and it's still my favorite. I have tried flavors like peach, mango and chocolate mint from other vendors but I always come back to my ECOpure as my "main vape." I have...

    need to find a mild menthol for my all day vape.

    I really like the EcoPure Menthol from Intellicig, offered at Cignot. It's not quite the same as a nice menthol analog, but it's been a solid all-day vape for me.

    Chantix

    My Dad, a 62-year smoker, successfully quit with Chantix, and he never had the urge again. He did have the dreams, but they were wonderful dreams -- it was the best part of quitting, he said. The dreams were lush and vivid and contained "colors I've never seen in real life." Chantix has been...

    Not tasting the flavor

    I don't think it's the juices because it seems to be all of them, and it's really unlikely that EVERYthing I have is just bad. I will try what folks have suggested here and I'll definitely follow up and let people know what works.

    Not tasting the flavor

    Thanks for the feedback. First of all I don't think I've been remembering to shake up the juice before filling up the cart, so that might be it. And I am still transitioning away from the analogs so that might be messing up my taste buds, lol. I will keep working at it. Thanks!

    Not tasting the flavor

    I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or if my atty just needs cleaning out (very likely). I am getting good vapor from my 510 regardless of which juice I'm using, but I'm not tasting very much flavor. This is regardless of whether I'm using a new cart and new juice or old carts with old...

    cignot rocks

    Agreed, cignot rocks -- just received my second order in one week. Empty carts, new juices to try, car --> USB adapter. I am one happy little monkey! Can't wait to try the mango, juicy peach and turkish blend. *happy dance* I was really hoping this stuff would be delivered before the weekend...

    How much were cigs when you starting smoking?

    Ciggies were about $1.50 - $1.65/pack when I first started smoking in the late '80s. They're about $6/pack now in my neighborhood; the last carton I bought was $52.50.

    Regulating e cigarettes as drug delivery device?

    Cigarettes are regulated -- children, for example, can't purchase them. There are laws about how it can (and can't) be advertised, where they can be sold, Surgeon General's warnings on the packs, where people can and can't smoke, importation and exportation, and recently, banning of flavors like...

    When did you start smoking and why?

    I started in the '80s at 19, old enough to know better. I never smoked in high school because none of my friends were smokers, but when I got to college the folks I became buddies with were all smokers. They never pressured me, although they were always polite and asked if I wanted one. I always...

    Can't find the right juice..

    Someone told me that the Turkish Blend juice from Cignot is a pretty good tobacco flavor -- I can't personally vouch for it because the bottle I ordered the other day hasn't arrived yet! I am also fond of the menthol from Cignot -- are you using the EcoPure?

    the little things in life that change when you vape instead of smoke

    I am new to the forum, and new to vaping (one week - still transitioning away from analogs, but I'm down to about 4 or 5 a day)! I am already pleased about the following changes: less ashtrays around the house! In my small 1BR apartment I usually had 3-4 ashtrays scattered about, containing...
