Hello & welcome Edlo

Which e-cig did you buy?

 

[mf97]

Hiya edloborn.

7 quid a pack, i hear that! That's a big reason i packed in fags.

I use cartomizers and not juice. I carry two batteries and two carts on me and always keep an extra box of 5 unopened carts at home for emergencies. I alway reorder stuff on a Tuesday as I figure friday through monday are like ebay and are busiest times. Not run out yet!

Started of with a starter pack from icig for the first week then got a screwdriver and tornado tank

 

[Chrissie]

So good to see some more new folks from the UK posting here on ECF

Edlo, get a couple of extra batteries in.Plus several atomisers - they are the weakest point. As for e-liquid, most folks get through at least 2ml a day.

Hi Mf97 Are you using prefilled cartridges? It's so much cheaper (plus much more choice flavour wise) to refill them with e-liquid

A good progression Edlo The Screwdriver was the first big battery mod I bought 2 & a half years ago - well it was the only UK mod available at the time

Hi Chrissie, yes I use the prefilled cartomizers. I find them easy to use and like the taste and I'm a bit lazy. I stuck with the same brand of tobacco fags for 20 years and couldnt' be bothered to roll my own to save money, you know how it is.

 

[Chrissie]

Lol, I know how it is but have you tried the "condom method" of refilling cartomizers? It only takes a couple of seconds. Not a fan of cartomizers but ....

YouTube - A double demo! The Cartomizer Condom Filling Method, and the Taryn Spin.

Should just add that I'm originally from Yorkshire - short arms (well not really ) & very deep pockets So always try to find the best products at the best prices

LOL.. I'm a rival Lancashire lad, (lard butties for me dinner!) and same when it comes to cash. No point wasting it. Thanks for the Youtube link. More than one use for a condom eh?

Welcome to ECF! The storage from Dow who make a lot of PG and VG is 'store in a cool, dark and dry place'. Some use the refrigerator. I don't. Temp changes can cause moisture. Ejuice should last from 18 to 24 months. I have some over 18 months that still vapes well. It won't 'go bad' - it will just lose some nicotine, flavoring and vapor properties and companies tend to 'understate' storage time for fear of lawsuits.
