I went through 2 mods, the provape and the P-10 from Super T. The only time I didn't smoke any cigarettes was when I used the smokestik. I switched because I ran through cartomizers like crazy, but in the end it is cheaper if I go back to smokestik, stop buying juices, batteries, attys AND cigarettes.
If somebody on here is interessted on a P-10 with a Super T whisle tip let me know. I just don't understand why only smokestik would work, any ideas?

What are you using on the P-10, and what were you using on the Provape? Atties or cartomizers? Maybe you just like cartomizers? If that is the case you can just buy prefilled or empty cartomizers for your P-10. Now, it also could be the juice you are using. What mg juice is it, and do you like the flavor?

I guess that what I am trying to say is that it is not your choice of PV as both the Provape and the P-10 are better than the smokestik imo.

Smokestik is RN4081. Just buy blank cartos for RN4081 at Vaporkings.com and fill them yourself? Will be cheaper.

I use 2 different models with cartomizers I fill myself. I find thin (20% or less VG) clear juices give me at least a week of good performance out of a carto. However, if you start refilling your own cartos I recommend manual batteries so the batteries are safe from damage by juice leaks. RN4081 manual batteries are totally sealed on the threaded end.

Thanks to all of you. I recieved a phone call from an EFC member, explaining to me what could be possibly done to get the same results with my super t. I can't believe the compassion and help from a total stranger, not tryin g to sell my their products but out of pure niceness and understanding, what a great community!
To answer your guys questions, I used low resistance cartos, both on the provape and super t. The atomizers just didn't do it for me. I was told to try a juce called Prime 35 and a certain cartomizer to get the same effect as the smokestic. I will give it a last try with the super t (I do love the device, look, feel and craftmanship). If that set up doesn't work, I'll sell it in the classifieds and go back to smokestic. I have never smoked more than right now and it doesn't help that a carton costs about $30 in Washingtin State (at the reservation). I know I have to quit and just want to find my way to the point where I didn't even want to smoke but rather used an e-cig. Thanks to all of you for your help.

After speaking with a very knowledgeble and helpful e-cig employee, I have the Super T another try. Ordered 510 Mega Coil Cartomizers (1.5-2) and some regular resistance soft cap cartos from Vapor Junction as well as a different juice 50/50 High Caliber in 24% nicotine. I really wanted this to work. I love the craftsmanship of the Super T BUT I keep smoking cigarettes like crazy. I probably spend close to a grand on all my e-cig stuff. From the smokestic to provape to super T, all the extras, juices, batteries, cartomizers etc. I am so frustrated. I obviously have 3 choices. Keep trying the Super T, this time with the juice which got recommended to me by the gentlemen on the phone (I believe it was Halo Prime 15) as well as the E2 cartos (just seemed like a pain in the .... with all the filling), or keep smoking regular cigarettes, OR switch back to smokestik and spend about $20 a day, which is almost impossible being a single mom and student. What to do?

Refilling is not that messy with decent cartos and not using that messy condom method. I use soft cap cartos, pop the cap, tilt it,drip in juice from the bottle (I do hold a bit of tissue against the threaded end hole just in case I accidentally drip some down the center air channel). After filling a blank (18+ drops per ml of capacity), I clean it up (make sure threads are dry, blow into the threaded end to clear the air channel, touch a tissue to the top of the stuffing if it looks too wet) then let it lay on different sides to settle (15 min). While vaping, if the vapor gets a bit light or dry, I pop out the plastic drip tip I use instead of the endcap, take the carto off the battery, hold a bit of tissue on the threaded end hole just in case, tilt it and drip 6-8 drops or whatever it wants into the stuffing, blow out the air channel, cap w/ drip tip and vape.

But I am not using RN4081. I am using manual KR808D-1 (like Vapor4Life and Smokeless Image Volt) with vapor4Life or other cartos w/ a center air channel, and also using manual 510 and Riva 510 w/ Boge cartos. I find thin clear juices soak in easier and give me the longest good performance from a carto - like 20% or less VG light colored clear juices.

If you like the SuperT try the attys and drip or think of an eGo or Riva from Libertyflights for $29.99 the whole kit. We all try until we get it right, it's expensive but worth it if you have kids and want to live and be healthy. Thats why I blew $1,000's on the 510, then the eGo, then the Provari then the Ali'i then the Reo Mini and the reo Grand. They all work, I finally like the juice fed mods because they are not messy and no filling except the bottle once every few days. The attys are all 510 and now my expenses are minimal. Juice is subjective, from regular Ry4 from libertyflights or any good supplier, or a flavor you love may work better, vanilla, apple? Look at LF, Backwoods Brew, Tasty Vapor and keep trying and good luck. I gave up smoking for my kids and I am glad I did.

Hi silverrocks. Just wanted to welcome you to the forum and say hi to a neighbor from across the pond.

If all efforts with your 2 mods fails, just stick with what works for you. You'll recoup your money in the classifieds because high-end PVs hold their value and you will likely get almost what you paid for them. Good luck.

Well, I think I'm going to sell the P-10, all the extras and go back to smokestik. I just really liked the idea of using a great mod, never having to throw the body (e-cig battery) out. I just don't get enough vapor, the batteries seem weak, even though I replace them every 30 minutes and worst of all, the craving for cigarettes. I know I'm going to spend a lot of money long term with the smokestik option, but still better than analogs.
