I anxiously awaited the arrival of my first e-cig, the dse901 from E-smokeytreats.com. Well it came here today, I charged it for about 3 1/2 hours.. I cant quit smoking with this!! I am getting about 1/5 of the vapor that I see on the videos. That obviously has something to do with it... I tried topping of the cart and putting 2 drops on the atomizer, still 1/5 the vapor I see on the video for the dse901... Also tried the carts it came with. I need help bad because im about to run out back and smoke a cigarette right now!!!

This is your mistake. First charge, minimum 8, preferrably 12.

Check with Phil as to what he recommends, but 3.5 isn't giving the battery a full charge.

Thanks for the quick response, the instructions said 3-4 but I'm hoping that your right! Plus you gave me an excuse to go back to my old habit for tonight. Im in philadelphia too come down here and fix it for me! :D

First, new atomizers often require a breaking in period. It may take a day (or even a couple of days) for it to really break in and provide excellent vapor.

Second, it's sometimes a bit tricky to figure out the best way to actually vape an e-cig. It's not like smoking an analog. Take one small puff (without inhaling--this will heat up the atomizer), then take a long, almost leisurely draw. After awhile, it becomes second nature. Don't suck too hard--just enough to turn on the battery. (Sometimes it's helpful to do this in front of a mirror so that you can see when the battery engages.)

Third, if you really have low vapor production, it's possible you've flooded your atomizer. While it may sound counter-intuitive, too much liquid in the atomizer will actually reduce the vapor. For a flooded atomizer, remove the cartridge and unscrew the atomizer from the battery. Take a tissue or paper towel, and roll it up a bit, and gently place it part of the way into the atomizer. Then blow through the small hole at the end where the battery attaches. Do this a couple of times, and most of the excess liquid should be removed.

Report back. :)

Haha!! Now thats what im talking about! Still using the 3 /12 hour charged battery, I put 2 drops directly on the atomizer and didnt use the mouthpiece. I got a lottt more vapour, still only about half of what I saw online but wow! I could quit with hits like that. I know its bad for it, but how many hits does 2 drops last lke that?

Look for Spikey's vids in the video review section. She does a great job and may be more up your alley on "vaping for newbies". Username 'Spikey'. ;)

I also recommend Ritalee and Igetcha69's videos. Brilliant.

Most all videos on here are awesome -- the ones I called out are for first time users on how to maximize your investment (you and me). Once you get through those, there are a plethora about filling carts, DIY juice, modifying the device, etc.

Spend some time in the reviews forum. You won't regret it. :D
