Hi! From Minnesota

[kico166]

Well, by the Google map - there are just 2 of us from Minnesota that love Smokeless Image.
I've been vaping (with 2 doctor's blessings - Mayo Health Systems) since February 2012.

The first ecig was almost my last - but desperate times - I gave it a second try w/ another company.
That led me to the conclusion that Customer Service is EVERYthing in the vape world.
Therefore, I'm a loyal Smokeless Image customer. I only wish I could be 100% loyal! Found a 2ml cartomizer I really like that works pretty well with my Volt batteries.

Either today or tomorrow, they are supposed to get the bottom coil ce3 (Phoenix) in.

Welcome.

The volt is well liked around here. I am not a user myself, but I am in the state

Hey Mroutlaw: Thanks for the info (CE3)! Just looking as the leaking on the battery with Clearomizers is a source of frustration for me! Definitely like the one I just got with the longer wicks! I thought using more VG solved the problem - but that was only for a 2-3 refills and - they are back to leaking.

Thinkingaboutit: Are you saying you don't use Volt or your still "thinking about" going to ecigs?

If you are getting leaking on you battery from clearomizers (I assume you are talking about the vision ones on colors) it can be from a couple of things.

First, are you using it on an x2 or a small battery.

Check this for leaking:

Make sure that the bottom of the drip tip is touching the silicone cup seal (you need to look from the outside)

Make sure the metal ring is pushed all the way down. Sometimes they don't come pushed all the way in. That would prevent a good seal.

Also, try to fill only to the 1.4ml line. With a wick system, of you will too high, when you tilt it, the juice overwicks into the ceramic cup. That's why I even prefer the cotton coil ce3 to the top coil. I have been using the bc ce3 for almost 2 months and have not had one leak yet. They also last a long long time

I made the name when I was thinkingabout it Then I jumped in head first and didn't look back. I have a kgo and a vtube with two batteries each, and a ton of juice and cartos.


I love a good vendor myself. I learned early it's impossible to have a one stop shop...there are lots of places out there that will take great care of you. I haven't had a bad vendor yet out of five.

if you are in or near the twin cities there are a few brick and mortar shops around town. one out in .... rapids and one in anoka for the north metro and Vermillion River Juice has a store front in in lakeville that also carries some mods batteries and parts for the south metro, there are plans for one in Bloomington in the not so distant future.

Hi! Welcome

 

[ziadaze]

Welcome, you're on the right path! Just research the different types of devices available before spending lots of money of things that you won't use next month! Check out mods.

Hello and welcome to the forum for everything E-cig, lol.

Bloomington? Nice. Anyone we know? I still am working on herring to VR. Talked to them on the phone, they offered to stay open late if I call ahead...I am shooting for normal hours if I can. They seemed great and I know they stock 510 parts and have samples. I'm looking forward to seeing them soon.

Well i don't know if they want it out there but i was told this directly by them, If the want to keep secrets don't tell anyone.

Its the guys from Ecig crib and Dave(? I think) from Vermillion River juice teaming up, I have no idea where they are in the process but it sounded like it would be sooner rather then later. It sounds like they are leaning towards the ecig crib "lounge" feel, but time will tell. I do hope that they will bring in other juice vendors because while i know vermillion makes great tobacco flavors those just are not my bag.

I have been to both the Ecig crib and Vermillion's new storefront and both places were extremely friendly and helpful but the Ecig Crib i could see just hanging out on a friday night and BS'ing with other vapers. Vermillions store was nice but it was much more of a get in and get out. Think Food truck VS pre dinner lounge. The food truck will still have so great food but there was nothing compelling me to stick around.(other then their friendliness)

I take it as great news it's a new place and experienced owners. Bloomington is nice and easy for me. I will be there for the opening if I know about it in time and I'm in town.

Welcome to the ECF. Please don't let anyone discourage you from your brand loyalty, but let us encourage you to branch out because there is always someone with a better deal. Keep your eyes on the target. There is no one vendor that does it all.

Easy For you, The location they are looking at is less then a mile from my house. I might go broke. But i will also be there on opening day if i can.

Find out when, I'll meet you there. So few local vapers...

Wow! thanks for the great welcome & tips! I'm down in the far South West corner. Out in the boonies! I've heard there is a smoke shop in a town 45 minutes from me.

Is there a thread that breaks down all the components of the Clearomizers? I'm using it on the X2 battery from SI. Definitely like the longer wick on the newest one I got. Where are the Ce3's from? Someone else mentioned a fix for the Clearomizer but I wasn't sure if they were talking about the the bottom of it where it meets with the battery or ??? Because I'm always in a hurry (no matter what I'm doing) - I frequently "eye ball" my mix now. I love being able to tweak the juice in these Clearomizers. (Some days when allergies are worse - adding more menthol helps.)

I tried CigEasy's Elite 808 2 ml cartomizer - worked great on the first couple fills ... now it's difficult to get anything out of them. I thot it was from the VG in the juices I was trying to "blend off" in the Volt juice. I've also noticed it happening in the Volt carto's lately too. That's what gave me the idea to try it in the Clearomizers - works fabulous in there!

I guess I was SO totally disgusted with the service and NOT standing behind their products (Chase) I can't whoop it up enough for Smokeless Image. The Chase kit: battery #1 quit within 2 weeks. They replied they had a replacement in the mail. Never received - no more contact from them regarding it or when the 2nd battery died at the ripe old age of 3.5 weeks.

SW corner, so you live in a wind farm?

If the smoke shop near you has a good selection of vape supplies, post it up. I rarely, but sometimes am down there.
