    510 Atomizer Rebuild- Inner sleeve too loose

    When I put an atomizer back together after soldering a loose wire, the inner sleeve fits on very loosely. It was prob like that when I got it. It crapped out on day 2 and was always flooded. It is a 510 Smok Tech 2.5. Is there a way to fix this? Should I just send it back and exchange it...

    My First Little MOD- Lucid cartridge MOD

    The little peice of polyester kept getting stuck on the atomizer bridge of the new Lucid clear cartridges I got. I cut up a new stainless faucet aerator/screen and cut it twice the size of the little end peice, folded it over, shoved it in with a pair if tweezers, and started vaping. It seems...

    How Hot? (eGo)

    How hot does the top of the battery part of the eGo get? Is there a normal range? The atomizer gets super hot and that heat transferes to the battery casing. I am concerned about my battery getting hot and exploding. I'm new to all this and haven't been able to find that info yet. Thanks much

    Did I get Scammed?

    i yi yi! I guess I should have read the fine print and done a bit more research about the best places order from. There is a lot of info to absorb. I have emailed and called 2x now, with no response-not good business practice, but I am glad to hear that someone else has ordered from them with...

    Question concerning Cartomizer Life . . .

    You can run a threaded sewing needle (long thin one) through the cart. That may help. Once your empty of the juice in there now though, IMO, I'd just put in a new cart. I am a newbe, but I am finding that trying to resurrect or save cartos in a painful waste of time and now really worth the...

    Ohhhhh hellooo!

    Hi there! I'm new to this too. I have learned a few things in the past few weeks. 1. This site is a great resource 2. I wasted my money starting with the cig style battery (808). They have a short battery life and, correct me if I am wrong, you can not use the low resistance cartomizers or...

    Did I get Scammed?

    Thanks to all. Good advice. Hopefully I am just being paranoid and impatient. I'll let y'all know how it all pans out.

    Changing Taste Buds-Would Appreciate Suggestions

    Yankeebobo, does VV give you more throat hit too? I had been under the impression that it was to give you more vapor.

    Changing Taste Buds-Would Appreciate Suggestions

    Hi JJ. I adore cinnamon! I have read that it deteriorates some of the cartomizers though. Is it the clear ones exclusively? I can see liking a lemon/tobacco mix. I'm not much of a liquor drinker, when I do I enjoy a gin and tonic with lots of lime. I'll look around for a juniper flovor and...

    Changing Taste Buds-Would Appreciate Suggestions

    Hey Y'all. I origionally bought an 808 at a mall kiosk and prefilled carts, thinking that each cart was equal to 2-3 packs of cigs (what I was told by the person who worked there). It is so wrong that she felt comfortable lying to me like that. I know that I should have done my homework...

    New, off cigs one week, tank floods-Ugh!!!

    ok. One less hole. Can I plug the hole? Or should I just save the cart for a different liquid besides the 70/30.

    New, off cigs one week, tank floods-Ugh!!!

    so, a bigger hole will keep it from flooding by letting the juice drain back into the tank more freely?

    New, off cigs one week, tank floods-Ugh!!!

    Thanks for all of the replies. It is a new cart. I was thinking that since it is a dual coil that having the cartomizer full would be important. Not true?

    New, off cigs one week, tank floods-Ugh!!!

    Hey there. I am using a clear DCT tank on an ego-t battery. At first the cart seems to dry up (I did pre-fill the cart) and I have to pull up some juice by a little drag with no battery power, then it works for a few drags, then it floods and stays flooded. I end up with juice all in my mouth...
