I just got my first e-cig in the mail...

[Duderino]

... and of course I have a few questions.

I bought the Vapor King from V4L. How do I know when the batt is fully charged? Both batts are plugged in right now. The USB charger light was blinking, now it's a constant blue light and no light on the LED tip. The wall charger light is a constant red and no light on the tip. Both have been plugged in for about an hour. Also, the cartos make a sizzling sound... is that normal? (sizzling is the best word I can use to describe it)

Thanks all!!

Yeah, cartos sizzle, at least that has been my experience. I am not sure about your charger. On my Riva when I screw the battery into the charger the charger changes from green to red and the LED on the batter flashes a few times. When the charger changes color (mine goes green) it's done charging.

Hey Good for you Dude!!! You will get the hang of it real quick...welcome!!!

Sizzle is good thing. Not sure on your battery charging, hopefully someone else
will jump in.
Congrats on getting started. It does take a little tweaking to get it all right.

I love the sizzle sound!!

 

[CoronaBorealis]

sizzle my nizzle! its all good homie G.The light will go off and change color when its done

 

[Duderino]

The wall charger went from red to green, so I assume it's done. As for the USB charger... it's still a solid blue. I am going to assume that one is done too. Because it's time for some Red Lobster with my beautiful gf!

Thanks for the welcomes Whiskey and Grannie! Right on Hoodie, I be sizzlin tonight!!

I like the sizzle, it reminds me of the sound of burning tobacco in a cig.

 

[Duderino]

I'm liking the sizzle too! It kinda freaked my out at first, but now that I'm used to it its kinda relaxing.

Dinner was good Phreaker... after dinner was better

solid blue is charged

sizzle is good - means there is plenty of juice in there. but if it actually spits hot drops out the mouth hole then some juice may be in the air channel - if so then remove the carto from the battery and pop out the mouth end cap (use an unbent paper clip in the mouth hole only as far as needed to pop the cap or you may catch the stuffing too). If there is juice in the air channel you can usually clear it by holding the open end down against a tissue and puffing into the threaded end.

And grats for actually buying one of the two most popular slim ecigs! Most mall brands are a ripoff but you must be a good shopper!

BTW - I really like their WOWbacco - it's a cocoa tobacco and the more mentholly version is WOWBoy. I also like their WOW Vanilla though I am refilling that with some Backwoods Brew Vanilla Bean I have. You read reviews on the flavors at their site.

I am also enjoying their V4L drip tip - I don't drip in it (the juice would likely go down the air channel) but it's nice to use instead of the mouth-end cap if you have a hot carto. Their WOW blanks run hotter than their Coolcarts. i have the black Delrin
