I have plenty of backup cartridges, but looking to juice it up a little.

Where am I looking? LiteCigsUSA...why? No reason really. I like the feedback lots of people are giving "Shawn's" site -- I guess that's the reason.

But I'm stuck a little...

As a beginner, I'm vaping a Prosmoke -- From what I've read its the m40x line. Am I correct here?
--> was looking to get a 401 battery to last a little longer than my "403" battery that came stock with it. Compatible? (and should I go for the manual or stick with the automatic/sensor??)

If anyone is familiar with the LiteCigs site, can you tell me why he's selling syringes all over the place?
Are his bottles not drippers and I'd need something to get the juice out without making a mess?

Thanks guys for helping out.

As for more information I'm looking at the High Caliber E-liquids...

I like the ProSmoke because of VG - although I'm disappointed with the lack of flavor and feel. One can say on the other side that there's plenty of vapor -- but for me that's almost a drawback as I like to vape in public and the vapor is a bit overwhelming to stay inconspicuous.

That's why the High Caliber 70vg/30pg blend seems like it might be a great combination for me to try.

Thoughts?

If it really is an M403 battery that you have, then the M401 and M402 will also work.

and should I go for the manual or stick with the automatic/sensor??
That's a matter of personal preference, but the majority of people prefer the manual batteries.

Here is a thread you can check out on that subject...

Welcome,
Lots of vendors offer different mixes in pg/vg. I personally like a 50/50 mix. 70vg is a little high plus the juice may be thicker and harder to absorb into carts/cartomizers. Velvet vapors offers good juice 100 % vg and their vg must be thinned with something because it is not too thick. fsusa offers your choice in some of their flavors. Syringes are for some of the cartomizers like clearomizers, and eGo type cyclinder cartomizers.

Hi and welcome to ECF. Yes litecigusa is one of the best companies on the ECF suppliers list. I've ordered lots of stuff from Shawn over the last year.

I'm not sure if the Prosmoke is an M40x series or not as their website doesn't say anything about compatibility.

I've ordered a lot of juice from litecig, mostly Dekang tobacco's and High Caliber juices. All the juice I got was in dripper bottles. The reason for selling syringes is that some people like to use them to measure and inject juice into their cartomizers. I don't bother, I just drip it into them. I've also ordered a lot of hardware from Shawn in the last year and can tell you he stands by his products. Customer service is unbeatable. The one and only time I had a problem with any product I emailed Shawn and the issue was resolved within hours, and it wasn't his fault since the product was defective from the factory.

Someone will probably come along who knows about compatibility of your device, but if not go to the "contact us" page on the litecig website and ask Shawn. He'll probably know or be able to help in some manner.

Well, thanks for the reply.

I'm not quite POSITIVE that the Prosmoke is a m403, its what I read a few places, but would like the confirmation I suppose.

I guess I should have been more clear about my question with auto vs manual. When out and about I feel a manual might be better to sit in my pocket and not be effected by my movements, etc. Q's: How sensitive are the manuals? Does it take some decent force? Is there any delay in the action? (meaning, if its pressed and released immediately, does it actually engage?)

If Prosmoke really is an M402 or M403 then try an M401 manual battery. I started on M402 and upgraded to the M401 batteries and it's still very petite. After a month I upgraded to a 510 manual and a Vapor4Life manual (KR808D-1) and just got a Riva but I still set up the M401 at home with a nice flavor in it - it delivers delicate sweet flavors very nicely.

And you can replace your cart stuffing with blue foam. I love Blue foam in my M401 carts. The juice cups is so small you can cut down the cheap precut blue foam pieces for 510 (from strictlyejuice.com) and may even get 2 401 plugs out of 1 510 precut. Search Youtube for M401 blue foam. Watch the video but I think his plug is extremely small and would be more likely to dump out juice. I cut about 3/4 the length of the juice cup, a tiny tiny bit wider to help it stay in place (only a tiny bit - if too wide it will squish the foam holes closed) and I taper the foam plug on the inner end to help wicking.

Re syringes - for DIY measuring and some people like to use a syringe to stick juice between the inner metal wall of a cartomizer and the stuffing, and reservoir cartos all require some specified type of syringe. Re DIY and filling some kinds of cartos - - drops are not an accurate way to measure because every dropper bottle has different size drops.

Dormouse,

I found a previous post of yours: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/157650-so-i-just-got-my-prosmoke-mail-today.html and that I suppose was a more expanded form of your response just now.

What I really want is someone who has a Prosmoke AND a m40x and tell me if they match.

I suppose I can be the guinea pig for this, but I want to make a large purchase with a backup charger, atomizer (3rd one), battery and a PCC. So...I could be in the hole in a little further than I'd like to be by purchasing all things involved. :/

Grrr. I need a 100% YES!

I responded in the other thread but will post it here too!...sorry about the double post :)

Ive been meaning to post a review for the ProSmoke but havent had a chance. Luckily I have been super happy with mine. I have an ego and prosmoke and drip with both unless I am using Prosmokes tobacco or vanilla; I love both of those and prefer VG so theirs works and is tasty.

I use the ego at home and prefer a mini when out and mines a little monster and hasnt let me down yet. Unfortunately its not an m403 trips. I got some parts thinking it was and it wasnt even close. The diameter is much bigger on the prosmoke. Bigger than M but smaller than ego obviously. Just thought Id add my .02 since I tried!
