Hello everyone ive been seeking answers to random quiestions on e cigs via internet and I'm always led to thus site so I decided to make an account..I've smoked marlboro smooths since I was 16 and I'm now 23, I smoke around 10 cigs a day and a little over a pack on the weekends . I bought a magma and love it so far. I've did a Lil research and decided to start buying my own juices. Ive bought 3 e juices so far and like the "energy cow" the most. The basic menthols are okay but never really cared for them in analogs either. I bought some mint e juice and wasn't impressed. If some one could point me in the direction of a pepperment menthol (like the smooths) rather than spearmint it would be greatly appreciated. My next question pertains to dripping. I understand the basics but which is more efficient?..people who smoke X amount of carts aday would generally drip how many times in a day. I've been vaping around 3 carts a day. At this rate I would like to know how fast I would go through a 15ml bottle and how long it would last dripping? Thanks

The best way to tell how much juice you are going through is to watch your bottles. It's easiest if you use 5ml bottles to tell when it is down 1 ml, 2 ml etc. Try to stick to one or two juices for a couple of days and figure out how much you used. I use about 1.5 ml per day. Some others use 3ml per day or more. And BTW I think 20 drops is about equal to a ml but it depends on the size drops your bottle makes.
I am not a menthol or mint person some someone else will have to field that.

I'm not sure that you can really compare how many times a day someone would drip to how many carts a person would use. Dripping is very different and there's very little, if any, wasted juice. With carts there's often some juice wasted because it stays in the filler. I drip most of the time and use cartomizers when I'm away from home. I just drip when I feel like it. I've never bothered to count how many times a day I do it. It would probably end up being a lot because the method of dripping is different from using a cart and I tend to chain vape.
Welcome to the forum! You will find that there are lots of great people with some of the best knowledge around! I used to smoke marlboro smooths before they went to 4.50 a pack here. I have not received my order yet but, gourmet vapor has a juice called marlboro smooth. The reviews on it are good. I know that the juice will not be exactly the same as the cig, but I am expecting a cooling, minty flavor. Hope this helps! Jeff
Welcome to ECF! I'm not sure if I can answer all your questions but maybe I can help a tiny bit.
I'm a menthol vaper but the sinus clearing menthol juices didn't do it for me, especially as an "all day" vape. I use Halo's menthols. They are mellow, not overpowering and not spearmint. If I had to qualify the flavor, I'd put them more in the peppermint category. They are definitely not overpowering. Any of their menthols work for me as my go-to, all day vape. I find the mellow easy flavor of them just works for me. I'm sure you'll get many more suggestions as far as menthol nic-liquids as taste really is subjective.
It's hard to calculate how fast you'd go through a 15ml bottle of juice via dripping because everyone vapes differently. I personally started dripping pretty quickly after getting the hang of vaping. I find it much more efficient because there was always leftover juice in my cart filler material.
3 drops right into my drip-tip (or atty when I was using a blank cart) and I'm a happy camper for about as long as it took me to smoke a cigarette. Even if you get 7 or 8 good draws from your drip it's a breeze just adding 3 more drops. I'm a chain vaper and it just became second nature quickly.
Once the flavor changes and the taste goes dry or "off" - I just add my 3 drops and I'm good to go.
I think it's safe to say that your juice will go further by dripping because you'll be bypassing the wasted juice left in your cart filler material.
Of course dripping isn't always convenient - like when I'm driving, I'll just fill a bunch of carts and swap them out as needed.
For me though, dripping sure beats topping off my carts. I find that I drip about as often as I was topping off my carts. YMMV
Good Luck!

I found a menthol from vapor pro. It was a little weak in flavor for me. I first cut it with VG and add crushed menthol crystals. For me, I add about 0.02g/ml and it is great for me. It will be different for each person. I will caution you if you go the adding crystals route. First, crush the crystals into almost a powder. Second, add a little at a time, shake it well and let it sit all night. Then test it out. You can easily add more. It is hard to compensate for too much. I know, I mixed way too much in my first batch. Good thing it was only a 3ml batch. If you want to try adding menthol crystals PM me and I will send you some to try out.
Wow 4.50 a pack there!!! Try 5.97 here and I thought I was on the cheaper end of the ordeal..thanks for the great community and advice guyz
Cigarettes were costing me and my fiance $49 per carton. Packs are going for around $5 or more for name brand. Marlboros are $6 per pack at the corner 7-11. We picked a good time to quit smoking and start vaping.
I agree thanks for all this help guys glad I can ask y'all instead of spending money
