e-cig liquid

[Mal]

I am a newbie and am not sure this is the right part of the forum to post this in. I an looking for a reliable quality e-cig liquid supplier so I can refill my njoy cartridges rather than paying $5 a pop for them, which is kind of outrageous. I would appreciate any info and experience with refilling. Thanks!!

Hi Mal...just browse thru more in this forum ...you'll find more and mind you some e-liquid supplier can charge you higher than your liquid petrol..... Best of luck trying it out and check out this supplier http://www.freesmoke.eu.

hi.could you please tell me how much smoking you can realistically get from a 50 ml bottle?freesmoke has one for £44(inc shipping).just wondering how many smokes you can get from that,how long it will last.i know it depends on the individual smoker-but roughly how much smokin is there in a 50 ml bottle?the cartridges i hav at the moment dont last very long at all!thanks.

Each ML is approximatly equal to a pack of cigarettes. But, it's a bit lower nicotine content, so you might smoke more often and go through it faster. Also, if you drip, or use modified cartridges, like the "Straw cartridge" you'll also go through it faster.

And, do a search for liquid and you'll find the latest news on liquids. But to summarize, the major supplier is in China, so they're being affected by tightened security restrictions on shipping. So it'll be more expensive, harder to find, slower to arrive, and sold in smaller sized bottles until the olympics are over and it all goes back to normal.

All in all, in Europe, Freesmoke is your best bet.

 

[Mr.Darcy]

yeah,have been lurking for a while.pity my taking up e-smoking has coincided with this olympic shipping thing!its hard to believe theres no reliable oil supplier in holland,given its popularity there for quite a while...this is going to work out more expensive for me than smoking rollups!better for my health tho,which is all that really matters i guess.thanks dude.

 

[leaford]

It's only temporary, and there are workarounds. E-Cig cna still ship the small bottles and cartridges, via china post, which is slow but cheap. And keep googling, there are lots of sellers for cartridges. I'm sure you can find something.

 

[Mr.Darcy]

you know what?i think i'll just go to freesmoke.smokeyjoe likes their product,and its not cheap i know,but its far less hassle.im afraid i have no patience!lol.by the way leaford,you seem to be a knowledgeable fellow,so can i ask you-why do they all claim their cartridges are the same as 20 cigarettes,because clearly they are nowhere near.hundreds of puffs per cartridge my foot!dozens if u r lucky!

 

[RatInDaHat]

dude, it is all marketing. plain and simple

 

[Mr.Darcy]

well i have a degree in marketing,and this is beyond any acceptable "truth-stretching" in my opinion-at least for any reputable companys product anyway...

 

[RatInDaHat]

agreed, but they are coming from china.

 

[RatInDaHat]

there are some sellers who are very honest about it. http://www.myecig.com and http://www.electroniccigarettesales.com come to mind immediately.

 

[Mr.Darcy]

yes thats true dusty,many more who arent however...but being sold (apart from ebay etc)by reputable american and european companies as their brands...because they come from china doesnt mean they can waive any responsibility for how they market the product-including wild claims like that.i honestly dont know how they get away with it...probably because this is a niche product,and under the radar at the moment maybe...i dont know,its just an observation.anyway,im just annoyed because i cant get any vapour out of this damn thing right now! :roll:

What's especially ridiculous is all the mini-cigs that claim to be equal to a pack.

 

[Mr.Darcy]

exactly,its just crazy,and very misleading to the consumer.

exactly,its just crazy,and very misleading to the consumer.

And also bad for the general public...Sad but for financial gains, people will resort to anything just to get sales while the real ones struggles to get it off the ground. :x

 

[leaford]

The thing is, they're not totally wrong. Well the ones claiming a mini-cig's cartridge is equal to a pack are totally wrong. But the Pen sized ones really are. It's just that it gets harder to get a good hit of smoke off them as they get drier. So we give up halfway through. But, having been stuck without refills for a double shift, I can vouch that with enough effort you really can get most of it out! Easier than that, though is to squeeze the remaining liquid out with a syringe.

 

[Mr.Darcy]

they dont mention in their adverts that your jaw and cheeks start to ache like crazy and your face practically turns blue with effort long before you reach their "pack",(and in some cases 2 packs)promise(if you ever do), ,and that u have to syringe or otherwise manipulate the cartridges in order to even approach that target...they should just offer a realistic projection of what their products can do without trying to bulls*** their customers,which is exactly what they are doing.i just think its unfair and unacceptable,and raises false expectations for the layman-which is damaging the entire concept in the long run.dont get me wrong,i love this product and its future potential.this is just my opinion,of course.maybe given time it will sort itself out...or even better,hopefully they can produce a cartridge which actually DOES perform as well as they currently claim without customers resorting to the current and oh-so necessary DIY.now that would be sweet!we look to the future with hope...

Here's a bargain at £3.75 for 8ml bottle of e liquid. I have ordered 2.

http://www.electronic-cigar.org/e-liquid.html

My e cig doesn't produce much vapour so I rinsed it out and still waiting for it to dry out as it won't work now, this was a few hours ago, does anyone know if this will do any good?

 

[Mr.Darcy]

it might and it might not,depends wether your atomsier is faulty or not,i think-from what ive read anyway.seems to help some folks...make sure its well dry tho.did you charge your batteries for at least 8 hours?

 

[Mr.Darcy]

by the way lozzie,i got delivery of exactly the same ecig as you today-well it SEEMS to be the same...you can never tell with these things!i got it from a different seller tho,an the batteries are charging right now.that liquid is ecigs judging by the packaging-i wonder do they actually have it in stock in the uk,given the long delivery time.it would be so handy if they are a reliable local supplier,cos ordering small amounts from ecig isnt viable due to shipping costs-as you know.im very interested to see how quickly it arrives with you.i hope it gets to you soon.
