FAQs: Frequently Asked Questions About Electronic Cigarettes

Clearomizers are basically a filler-less Cartomizer; Carto fluid is held by fiber Clearo's have a sealed reservoir.

Instead of a metal tube they use a clear plastic tube which allows you to see the juice. The main difference between a regular Carto and a Clearomizer is placement of the ceramic cup and heating element. Normal Cartomizers have a heating element at the bottom closest to the battery connection while Clearomizers have a wicking system that allows the ceramic cup to reside at the top nearest the mouth piece. This provides a slightly warmer vape which some people prefer.

Most notable con (for some people) of the clearomizers is the necessity of a syringe. When you buy them from whichever vendor (several carry them. i.e. clouds of vapor, nhaler, gotvapes...etc) a small soft plastic needle tip will be provided. You will need to purchase a syringe separately.

I don't know if this is the right place to post this question, but how is the easiest way to make 100%vg e-liquid thin enough to use in a ego tank e-cig?

1. Distilled H2O
2. or PGA (pure grain alcohol is used sparingly in certain concentrated flavours for DIY and in a few recipes by some of the favorite pro mixologists.)

Do not use tap water
Do not use spring water
Do not use filtered water
Do not use water with minerals added

What about the 2-part ec? Ive been vaping for 2 weeks and have had some carts that dont fit on my battery, some literally get too hot on a bottom area to vape, and many that seem to have air leaking as i drag. I need a lesson on all this!

[scoutmaster]

Anyone know what size syringe to use with the needle for clearomizers?

 

[scoutmaster]

I know this is a bit off topic, but most other threads are closed. How then can we got more posts in if we are new?

I hope this won't get me in trouble but I have a single question to post in a different forum, so I'm just going to post here five times.

[scootertramp]

if you keep reading through these posts you will find that ...i watched some video clips and read a lot on here...i use the "condom" method, works great for my carto's.

Hi all! I'm getting ready to purchase my first ecig starter kit. I am thankful for all the useful information here for all
of us who are just getting started. There are so many products out there and it get overwhelming sometimes...
thanks again!

For those who vape at work, isn't it best to better to have less vapor? I know it is not the same as cigarette smoke, just
thinking that for myself, I would like to have less vapor at work and other public places for now. Maybe after it is more
commonly accepted...

Good morning. Hopefully I chose the right place to ask this question. I'm a newbie, and I'm not all that big on forums, but I'm finding that this is a great place for information that the e-cig vendors don't offer. So, the question; I understand the difference between the pg and the vg, and the pros and cons, but what is the e-juice itself? Is it simply flavored oils? If so, then why couldn't one use food-grade glycerin with flavor oils as an e-juice (for flavor vaping only, obviously)? Thanks in advance.
