hi yall

[A_G]

i was referred by a member of another forum, after he posted bout trying ecigs. so i did some reasearch and ordered the joye 510 kit from cig not.

Im a 19 year old diesel mechanic, i used to work on a coal mine and long hours and not alot of sleep, so i had picked up my smoking habit to nearly 3 packs a day. Since i got laid off there, its been 9 months and im finally down to a pack a day.

i had fully quit in december, when the company i was currently working for, my checked bounced, the close there doors and im stuck with the bill from the bank (arrow trucking) so i picked up smoking again.

But i had a couple people bring up the ecig issue, after research i found that it would be best for me, i get my nicotine and none of the other crap.

And its very cost effective. where here in oklahoma, even at an indian smoke shop, the tolerable cheap cigs are 3.50 a pack. carton 35.00 bucks. so i did the math and i came out, not including starting cost, it came that my smoking habit with the eliquid came out to about 1/4 of the cost. where as a bottle of eliquid was clost to the same amount of puffs as a carton, at roughly 9 bucks for the pricey stuff. and i can step down my nicotine usage gradually. and i can continue the movemant habit of smoking. at 0mg.

anyways, very boring post i know.

But im looking forward to my kit coming in from cignot. how lond did it take yall for your stuff to get it in, im doing the tracking thing and all thats coming up is, "electronci shipping notification"

dos and donts, yes i read the tutorial, but 510 users, whats different from any of the other brands and models, that need to be watched for on the 510?

Welcome AG and hope you enjoy the forum! Alot of great info and great people here to help you. I, like you, ordered my 510 from Cignot as well. Most people in the States receive their package in approx 2 days and have heard from some that got it sooner. I am in the Middle East and it only took 6 days! I truly like the 510...................no complaints here. I think you will enjoy it as well and congrats on your decision to quit smoking! Let us know how the 510 is working out for you once you receive it! Happy Vaping!

i totally forgot to mention that i also smoke hookah, just hookah with shisha in it. started doing that in college, and i really like it, no just getting the good shisha from over seas are a pain. the us brands just seem to dry. i know thats real common out your way.

As i have a mini hookah from over seas, a military friend bought it at the market and shipped it home for me.

Yea ordering the kit was a freaking pain. but i had to justify it to myself.

 

[lightinup]

Oh Yes, the Hookah! Got a couple of those myself! I do love the shisha! The flavors are fantastic! Haven't touched them since I started vaping but everytime I see them, I certainly get the urge. That's one thing about living over here that I do/did truly enjoy. It is a smoker's paradise! You can smoke just about anywhere and everywhere. Take care and let us know how you like the 510 once you get it. It will be there before you know it!

All electronic cigarettes are essentially the same, except there are really two kinds...
--2 piece cartomizers with cartridge and atomizer combined
--3 piece models with seperate cartridges and atomizers

The only differences in the 3 piece models are...
--the overall size of the unit
--size of battery
--power of battery
--battery life
--size of cartridge (how much juice it can hold)
--exposed atomizer or recessed atomizer


In general, the bigger the battery, the longer the battery life.
In general, the longer the battery life, the longer it takes to charge the battery.

In general, the smaller the unit, the smaller the battery.

Hi,
I'm glad you come aboard and give up smoking. I got my first pv from Cignot (joye510) and it took 2 days and I live on the west coast. Your going to need some liquid if you didn't order any plus it's a good Idea to get a usb passthrough you can get a 5volt passthrough at Mad Vapes for $15.00. Good luck and if you have any questions someone will answer them here. It's a great place with great people and lots of info.

A.G.,
I ordered mine on a Thursday afternoon from Cignot. It was shipped that night out of Chicago and I received it in Monday's mail. I am in south Florida. Everyone here will probably agree that the girls at Cignot are amazing at getting orders out. Don't be confused by the USPS tracking results, from what I experienced it was way behind actual package progress through my wait.
The 510 is a great PV in my humble opinion.

 

[A_G]

they have all natural shishas now, that contain no nicotine, and no tar, there not actually they bad. they have a hit of a green taste (non tobacco taste) but its worth it. the local hookah bar he orders the stuff in for me.

ya i went up tot he post office to check if it had come in yet, and its not there,s o i picked up hopefully my last pack.


what is a usb passthru?

Wow that was a read, covered alot, and cleared up alot. now to put into a simple digestable topic for my friends and family that are waiting to see what i think of e-cigs.

 

[A_G]

[A_G]

The batterys where basically charged. so i charged them up and off i went, havent had and analog since i got them at 3:30 and its 9:30. doing good so far.

As of right now i did loose the charger for the individual batterys the one that goes in the wayll . probably in my pickup. so i got the pCC charging right. Ill be picking up some more flavors next week.

yeah, i'm jealous! Mine comes in tomorrow! But what's funny is I don't smoke and I'm trying to use the nicotine for my colitis lol. Very odd i know, but there is good reason haha

 

[A_G]

mine it seems the cartriges themselves came with some kind of fruity crap pre-mixed in them, i doubt with any nicontine in them. But it seems to mostly cover up the taste of the atomizer breaking in.

And hold on to everything from the kit, each cartrige has caps for them in there individual packages, i find those hand to cap the end of cartriges ive pre-filled and put in pcc. also comes with extra tips, on the atomizers for your folks that like to dip/dripp. one was whistle tip and one was round, and i can see wanting the whistle tip. Reminds me of the stone creek cigars i used to smoke, or black and milds
