Hi,
I bought two e-cigs when I was on vacation in New Mexico this summer. I had never seen them before and thought it would be great to get me off my weekend smoking habit.
Obviously I have questions and comments like any new user, because really they are not very available in Holland--if at all (are they?).
1) So, for the first obvious question, I need you to bear with me. I'm sure it is one of the most asked questions, but I just don't know my way around the forums yet. What are good places to order liquids from that are cheap, good quality and deliver world-wide (i.e. to The Netherlands)?
I bought three bottles for me e-Go something (no idea of the model, weird... I got a pouch with it but no instructions, booklet, warranty, description or anything. Is that normal?). They are Marlboro, Straight Rum and Vanilla (which I find too sickly sweet, bah). I'd like to try Menthol, because with my currently in use e-cig, the flavour isn't really that pronounced. Any experiences/suggestions?
2) The first e-cig I got was a black cigarette-style one... it sucked to the point of barely working compared to the one I use now (the e-Go with a little transparent compartment where I put the liquid in without any foam to drench--it can contain a LOT more). The cigarette-style one uses a refillable compartment (is that the cartridge?) with a foam-like white substance that you need to drench... seriously, they sold me that in a mall for $75 without liquids. The e-Go was $55 *with* a bottle of e-liquid (from a smoke shop in Rio Rancho).
Are these things still so unregulated then? I felt ripped off.
3) I sometimes miss the feeling of dragging from a real cigarette. The e-Go pulls it off, especially when I haven't used it in a long while, but soon I seem to get used to it, or the e-cig gets flooded or whatever happens... I want to feel it when I inhale and sometimes there is a lot of vapour, but still no real cigarette-like inhalation feeling. Is that related to heat? Do I need to press the button longer?
It could also be related to the battery always running out. A fresh battery seems to work better than one that has been used a while. But perhaps I should be looking into stronger batteries that do the work for me.
Can I buy stronger batteries online that work with my current e-Go? And how do I know what works on it, anyway... I mean, in the smoke shop a lot of batteries we tried (I bought an extra one) did not work at all and they looked exactly the same. They said I need a "newer style" battery; the old ones don't work.
Lots of newbie questions, but then again, vaping seems to be a pretty recent thing, relatively. So I hope that's okay.
