Hello,
I am a new member and started vaping yesterday. I am thoroughly enjoying it. It has made me evaluate why I started smoking in the first place (18 years ago). Just to create the bloody clouds - and ended up with a cigarette addiction. Urgh ! :)

Both vaping and smoking atm with vapes replacing 20% of ciggs. In Australia so can't get nicotine juice. Waiting on my delivery of nic so can mix with the juice. On juices, I got a wee question :
When to top up juice? (posted on the general vaping discussion forum)
I dont know why the imgur link won't show the pic of the Uforce tank (voopoo drag2).

Cheers,

Thanks mate.
Yes, it is ! From your reply on the other thread
>As long as that cotton is wet it shouldn’t burn
So, say the juice is now only a millimetre from the base, that means part of the cotton is wet. But since the top half of the cotton is not wet, wouldn't the coil around that part just burn the cotton ?

Cheers

I do not suggest letting any part of the cotton get dry. Another poster recently had a problem with dry hits and that turned out to be the cause. It was not this tank specifically, but very similar coil structure. If you want to change flavors just dump out what little bit remains. It will be cheaper than replacing a coil because you vaped it too low and scorched the wick.

Welcome. You can buy nicotine to add to your juice or your diy from New Zealand.

Yep, I thought so. I simply couldn't agree that this particular tank with its coil structure - was to be topped up whenever I felt like. Good to get confirmation. Cheers mate

I did. From mixology. Its enroute. I keep forgetting I live in a God forsaken place and the quickest of posts takes forever to reach here.

I saw the other thread about this. Now I see what you mean. That sits up really high. I agree with the others, I wouldn’t let that get dry either.

Reminds me of the old top coil tanks that you had to ‘roll’ the juice around the coil lol.
 
G'day mate! Welcome to ecf too. Yep, the laws are just like the people that make them....strange, with a capital weird. Great place to live otherwise if you don't mind stuff outside and inside that would like to eat, bite or annoy you. A heads up, some vendors in the US are just as cheap to buy nic from when it comes down to freight. Muxuligy (Kiwi accent) are a tad 'gougy' and makes US sites sensible especially if you grab juices etc thrown in. As to when to fill the tank, I look at it this way....I dislike burnt cotton vapes, I'm going to refill any way, why put it off? I don't drive the car 20 k's further on empty for the fact its a long 20k walk back home for a jerry can of fuel and a 20k walk back to the stuck vehicle carrying a jerry can. Also, you save on chucking burnt juice and coils out in the long run.
I have never seen an RTV of burnt cotton flavour, maybe there's an opportunity we are missing.
