How many carts are you using a day?

Yeah, it does sound a bit extreme. I am using about 1 1/2 a day. 16mg during the day, 6mg or 8mg at night. Today I will probably finish off 2 since I have just been around the house and on the computer for way too much time! lol
I bought like 6 flavored carts. Pear, Peach, Peanut Butter, Marlboro, Vanilla, and Pineapple. The Peanut Butter and Marlboro seem to last the longest. Seldom use the pass-thru unless in front of my computer, usually just the batteries that came with the kit. 2 Batteries will get me through the day easily.
I have all those flavors, but not in 36. I could understand if it were just one flavor and strength, could be a batch was shorted, but all of these are fading quick on you? That is strange!
And you aren't vaping more? Taking more hits then usual?
If I take new carts to work 2 will get me through a shift, but I've been taking 7 used ones with 2 drops each put in just before i leave and rotate them through out the shift. I haven't run out so i'm good on that. With the pass-thru at home it's a different story. 5X the usage chain vaping at 5v.
I just got my 1st order from V4L a little over 48 hrs ago, and I've emptied 4 cartos. Plus I also topped off the RY4 with vanilla, since I don't really care for the flavor. But I've been vaping very heavily, almost non-stop, because the flavors I got that I really like are soooo good.
I was a pretty heavy smoker at 2 packs/day. Started vaping with a 901, and my vaping did level off with that. I expect that once I get over the "amazement" of my new toy that my vaping will decrease somewhat.
Five carts a day seems a little excessive to me, especially at the 36mg level. Are you sure those carts are really empty? Maybe you should open one or two of them up to see if they are in fact dry. Just a thought.

If I sit in front of my computer all day, I can easily go through that many. If I'm busy, at the most, 2. What I had to figure out, was to not just keep puffing away, it's so easy. Take 5-6 drags, then put it away. I find this got me back down to 1-2 a day. Hope this helps!
I just realized this morning that one of the reasons I go through so many cartos is because I do too many "primer puffs". Let's face it, every time you do a primer puff, you've just used up some more juice. I have been doing a primer puff before almost every single drag. That's going to stop right now. lol. One or two primer puffs with a fresh cart is what I'm going to be doing from now on. I suspect that will slow down my carto use.

Good point! I was in the habit of taking a primer puff with each draw on the autos and it was a hard habit to break! Even now, I still sometimes take a primer puff on the manual! Not needed at all with the manuals!
I go through carts like MAD, but I have been vaping a short time and only vaping 8mg carts, I am also trying new flavors and well some are really good. I think I go through about 5 carts a day right now. I do expect that to lesson as time goes on, I was a pack a day Marlboro light smoker, and I dont really mind using a lot of carts as I am learning and perfecting my refill technique. If I vape using the pass-through watch out a cart every couple of hours, I just love that thing.
I go through probably what equates to 3-4 a day. I generally have one cart that I refill several times. Though realistically you don't get as much on a refill as you do on the originals. I am a chain vaper and I timed myself at 4 hours on a new cart. So if I am up for 16 hours a day, then that would be 4 carts. If I was not a chain vapor (and even I put the thing down on occasion), I would expect maybe 2 carts. I have to second the primer puff thing, even on my automatics I don't find the need to do primer puffs - just long slow drags to get em stoked. I am still trying to break hubby of this habit...
Woozy - funny you should mention that. I got my order in this week also and had some pear and pineapple and was thinking the same thing ... that they just weren't lasting as long as previous carts had been. Have actually been put off by them altogether because even the flavor that I am so used to with Steve's carts is weak. Hmm ... makes you wonder if it was a bad batch after all. At first thought that it was just because these were new flavors to me and I just didn't know what to expect but also had some peach come in which I HAVE vaped before and absolutely love and even they were weak somehow. I don't know ... maybe it's just me but have never had this kind of 'lack' in any of Steve's carts in any flavor before.
Anyway, have a new order coming this week so will be able to compare better then I think. Man I can hardly wait until more 555 gets in! That is my all day vape and I'm sure missing them brand new fresh carts!!

Yeah, I have no proof, but I grabbed one of my wife's carts from the first order and it lasted me most of the day. Something is definitely different with this second order, but what can ya do? Luckily, I have some juice that should be here tomorrow so, I'll be refilling all these empty carts.
Yeah I'm not going to sweat it either. When there are thousands of these made, there are bound to be a few 'less than perfect' ones that slip through. Ain't going to lose any sleep over it, that's for sure! Every other cart I've had has been fantastic and such a pleasure to vape and looking forward to many, MANY more to come.
i don't seem to be able to generate a lot of vapor unless i primer puff, but i r newb
I vape about one fresh one and 2 refilled ones a day. If you think about it in terms of money, at least youre spending a little less than you would on 2 packs of smokes.

A lot of the old timers primerpuff the crap outta devices. Leaford is a prime example. He no doubt got in the habit because the original e-cigs were such crap it was required to primer puff the hell out of them to get them humping. Such is not the case with the latest models of KR808D-1 thank god...unfortunately such redundant habits are hard to shake loose.
When i got my first fuel injected car I used to pump the gas a couple of licks before i started it too...didn't do one damn thing, but I was in the habit from cold natured carburetors!
