First e-cig

[Shaolin Monkey]

I have known about e-cigs for a while now, and almost bought one a long while back. Then, I sort of forgot about them until I saw a Blu ad on the web. Before the Blu I was pretty sure I'd get a 901, 500, or 801 in that order. I had never looked at the 401 which the MV is apparently modeled from.

This all changed when I read Bandit's review of the MV. I ordered one on Friday and it came today. Thanks to Tony for the fast shipping!

Well, I plugged it all in and it seemed the batts had some charge and so I used one of my pre-filled "USA Blend" carts....

"Wow, blegh! This is what people are raving about!" I thought, as I took a few more puffs. It was then I remembered something on the forums about breaking in the atty. So I puffed and puffed, trying all the flavors for about 3 hours, and then....voila! Most of that crap taste had gone, and I was getting some flavor.

Have not touched an analogue in 3 hours, but then again, I have been vaping for 3 hours straight and have used up 1 battery.

The vapor production is great judging from what I had seen on other videos. I'll post a real review after I have spent a couple days with it.

it comes down to luck of the draw with the attys sometimes, I have had some with no primer taste, and some that tasted like A**!

I am glad you like it, and it will only get better the more your smoke

My biggest problem remains with overfilling, I guess. e-liquid in mouth is not the yummiest thing, hehe

especially since this is your first ecig, it might take a little bit to figure out the proper amount of juice needed.

With the Sidesho carts it is really easy to top off without removing the inner cart. The inner carts sits up pretty high, so you can easily drip 2-3 drops directly into the cart without needing to completely refill the cart.

One thing though about topping off. Wait like a minute before you put it back on or it may flood the atty as well. The minute wait is to let the juice re-absorb into the filler material. Ive noticed this seems to work out pretty good (when Im not dripping, which is most of the time).

I found the pyramid bag mod works wonders here. Have plenty of vapor for a good amount of time, and no liquid in my mouth!

Unfortunately, one of my batts just died. Somehow I knew I should have ordered a spare + the 2 they send ya.

Just called Tony. I hope I can get a replacement by Friday!
