To use the juice you linked (or any of the 1000's of other juices available out there) with a Volt all you need to do is get some Blank carto's Smokeless Image Blank Carto and fill them with the juice (of which there are many tutorials on youtube to get you started.) I agree that with what you are looking for the Volt would be the way to go.

For Two Hours you will have to change out the Carto multiple times to get the 'right-effect'.

Depending on how much time you have to switch out the Cartos you may want to go with buying several starter kits. Like having one in hand and two or three on standby in the event of having difficulties with dry hits and such.

The first time I ever saw an eCig was a few years ago at the local community theater workshop show. Dude lit-up on stage using HIS THUMB with no Flame. I saw all this smoke and such but never smelled the fart flavored poo-poo smell of burning Paper and Tobacco.

Hey guys! Thanks so much for all the help. I'm really excited to use this for the show, and I think it will actually end up being better than real cigarettes. I'm also excited to start vaping for myself!

So, I went ahead and put the Smokeless Image Volt Pro Starter Kit in my cart, choosing one white 78mm battery with an orange LED, one white 65mm battery with an orange LED, and five blank cartomizers. I'm going to get that 100% VG that I linked earlier, but my only reservation is the warning on Smokeless Image's website under the blank cartomizers that says not to fill them with an automatic battery. Is there a trick to it? I found this video, and assumed it would be similar:

The liquid capacity listed on the blank cartos is 1ml, but he only fills 0.5. Should I do the full 1ml? And would I do it just like this for an automatic, or are there more precautions I should take?

Thanks again, guys! What a great forum!

well first off, get sealed automatic batteries since you're ordering from smokeless image, which ***should*** let you drip juice while the battery is attached....however, i'd still pull off the cartridge to drip it in, also, since you will be using cartos with 100% VG, you will need to thin it just a tad, use either distilled water or vodka to thin it, then follow the method on youtube... he probably only fills .5ml but it really depends on the carto, so i'm pretty certain you should be able to put the full ml in there, and you'll want to with the VG, as it could burn the carto if you don't thin it enough

They just mean to remove the cartomizer from the battery before filling it. I'd do that on the manuals too personally.


When you fill them just do it until the filler looks soaked. The 1ml will be approximate.

The condom fill method is pretty fool proof and is demonstrated on the smokeless image website in a video at the top of the refill liquid page.

I agree with what everyone else is saying about getting a Volt. Now my two cents are practice before you preform. There is a bit of a learning curve when it comes to inhaling an ecig. Some people draw straight into their lungs while other take it into their mouth first and then into their lungs. When I smoked cigs I went straight into my lungs but could not do that for months while using my ecig. Just keep practicing and see what works for you. Let us know what you think and how it all works out.

Where you least expect it....
100% VG doesn't do too well in cartomizers most of the time. The problem is that it can lead to a burnt cartomizer fairly easily due to multiple reasons. So, the method (filling/topping off) that a person would use normally is slightly different.


For more information. I suggest getting to the required post count (5). Then researching and asking questions (or make a thread) here:

The warning about auto batteries is not to fill the carto when it is attached to the battery.

No need to go to the trouble of getting a syringe to fill. The easiest way is to just drip juice onto the polyfill and let it soak in. I get ~30 drops of juice in an empty carto. To be sure that it is not overfilled, just take a draw off the carto away from the battery. If it gurgles, it's overfilled. To fix this, just blow the excess juice out of the carto onto a paper towel.

If you find that the VG is not saturating the polyfill easily, you can thin it out with a little distilled water. 1 drop of water per 2 ml of juice works well for me.
