I have been vaping for the past two days, but one thing is always unclear for me. It is said one cartridge is equal to something like ten analogs, however normally at work I would smoke three maybe four analog cigarettes in a shift but between yesterday and today I went through four cartridges. Am I maybe tossing them too soon or is that normal? I noticed that I do vape more than I would normally take a smoke break since I can take a hit or two while in the office, which is why I think maybe I am refilling more than needed.

Granted as of now I do not have any e-liquid (should be in wednesday) so all I have is the pre-filled cartridges of menthol and tobacco flavors. Which on a side note about how long does a 15ml bottle of e-liquid last would you say? If you would be a heavy vapor

Welcome Trox Shawn!!

Pre-filled carts don't last NEAR what they say they do. Never trust them. I always refill my carts with juice and top them off during the day/night. You can order blank carts for most models. You should be able to re-use the pre-filled carts you have. I constantly re-use mine. I take the filler (stuffing) out of the cart and rinse them really well under water in a strainer until the color is gone from them. The rest of the cart I soak in the sink in warm water and dishsoap, rinse them off well and set everything out to try. Then just put the filler back in the cart, fill it up with liquid of choice and go.

If you don't rinse out the cart when you try a different flavor, the flavors will mix and sometimes it can be rather nasty. Same with the atomizer if you don't blow it out first when changing flavors.

Hope that helps you out a some.

If you are a heavy vaper, the 15ml will likely last you a week to 10 days, depending on the unit you are using. About 5 hrs. in a Screwdriver...hehehe...J/K.

I am using a 510 from e-smokeytreats. Thank you however for the feedback, as I am a newbie to this. I have been trying to quit analogs and this has been a tremendous help. Actually I have 2 bottles of 15ml juice that should arrive sometime this week so I should be able to top off my cartridges.

One other question where is the best place to purchase e-liquids? Taking in to account flavor price and shipping speed (I live in Louisiana)
