Hello Last night I bought my first Smoke 51 ecig. I guess I dont need to say any thing more about that. either i totally dont know how to use this thing or it died on me. I have the Trio model, I have no idea what is wrong with it, it worked fine last night. I change the cart out and i got a full charge on the battery and lets say if i Puff Ten times I might get vapor/smoke 3 times? Is there a break in period for these things? I saw alot of bad things about this brand, But now that i spent the money is there anything i can do to make it work till i can get another brand?

BTW hi All My Name is Tara, I have been smoking forever( 22 years) and Im tired, but like you all im sure you all know what im going thru. I really like this forum you all seem pretty nice, i hope that one day I wont be the noob of the group...LOL... But as of right now Im so new it is not even funny because till they got me at the Mall i had no idea that there were E-cigs.

Hi Tara. Sorry that your first experience with a PV was not the best. Here is what I would suggest. Go to one of the suppliers listed on this forum like vaporkings.com, or vapor4life.com and get yourself a good 510. 510's are really good PV's that provide lots of vapor and good flavor.

Welcome to the forums! :thumbs:

Hi ya. I'm guessing the cartridges are to dry. The only way to test that is to buy some ejuice and try refilling. When I used pre-filled cartridges that happened more than I care to remember. Drove me nuts, thought I was doing something wrong.

Welcome to the forum and good luck. Don't get discouraged. A lot of use had a hard time at first.

Thank you all for the kind words. I just love the information in the group here. I got alot of reading to do.

The atty is heating up and the Bat light works. It really is a neat thing, just wish i had more knowledge. Hi Ho Hi Ho it off to do some reading :)

I think i am gonna try a different Cart, because the first i used was a Cherry Flovered on and that sucker was Wet and messy but I got my Niccotin, This last cart was reg flavor and wasnt as moist. so maybe i got a bad batch of carts. Hmm you all gave me good food for thought.

Hi and Welcome to the forum! Make sure you are also taking slow, long drags from it. And take the vapor into your mouth first, then into your lungs and don't hold it in- exhale normally or you won't see much vapor. That's how people "stealth vape" by holding it in. Good luck!
Thank you for the advice , Yup Im sitting here praticing what you just wrote :)

I don't know but someone might come along that knows. Which 51 do you have the Duo or Trio That would be two piece, battery and cartomizer, or three piece, battery, atomizer and cart?

Scottbee sorta looked like one to me.Teeny tiny pictures.

How can i find out what type of model I have?

I agree, I use a 510 and some of my carts had 1 puff some had 5 so I'm guessing your carts are empty. You can open a 510 cart and push the filler down and see if it has juice in it then pull it back up to vape. I don't know about that brand. Hi, welcome and best of luck. By the way Cignot has 510 for about 35 bucks.

Do you want me to be nice and protect your feelings.. or tell you the truth....? ;)
Heh, yep tell the truth.

If it's a RN4081 it's the same as the Njoy Npro which was the first I had. I wasn't impressed. Some people around here like them.

The atty is durable and is supposed to work well on high voltage mods.

Im Sorry for asking a thousand questions, Im just so excited to be in this group. So off topic here, Can I upload pictures to my profile from my puter or do they have to be linked?

Tara

You can do both but you probably need to have made 15 post. Hey at this rate you'll be there in a few minutes.:D
