I did my share of complaining about charging 510 batteries fifty times a day and the constant topping off of cartridges.
That's how I discovered dripping. A good soak-down of cheap foam lasted about five draws on the Godawful M402 I started with. Somewhere in the butchered, tortured Cantonese-to-English instructional interpretation, they said something about "direct of metal liquid."
Somehow I figured that out and never looked back.
I had 3 510s active at the same time. When one went dry, I switched to another one. When all 3 were dry, then I filled them up. I could go about half an hour, without having to fill them.
Hi P.I. What's happening?

and youtube was a place to share your new way to use something better not show off how many coils you can cram in to an atty.
The little 180 mah 510 were too frustrating to use even when sitting right next to the charger! Luckily I'm only a middle child. So, I didn't have to stick with that unless I wanted to be really, really stubborn about the cig-alike size. I got over it real quick!
If I drip on 2 306s before I start the car, I can get a 20 minute drive out of them. Just enough to make it to work. Of course, I don't have to anymore. But, it does work!

I got a 510 passthru for the car and tried topping of a cart while driving. NASCAR had nothing on vapers trying to get their fix.
We laugh about this, but a buddy of mine just bought a K100 kit, mod, batts, charger, a funky drip shield thing and a cartomizer. He's only used carto's in a tank mind you, new vapor. So he comes over tonight and pulls the carto off. "OK, I don't get it, you have to fill the stupid thing up all the time, what the Hell's the point! It's worse than dripping!"
I just looked at him and laughed! "THAT, is all we had back in the day! That's what I started vaping on! I would go through 4-6 of them a day! I had one night a week set aside to clean the stupid things, then another night a week set aside to fill the stupid things!"
My how things have changed! Imagine the new members section now! "Really, I have to work this hard? It's not worth it!"
Yeah, can you imagine them sitting down to cut and fold tea bags? Or take time to order pieces and assemble a 3.7 v box mod? Not really!
My carto tastes burnt at 50 watts! Waaaah!

They were a pain, but they worked. The KR8088-D and the Joyetech 510 are what got me off of cigarettes and the pipe. I had smoked for 46 years, having started at the age of 14. I thought that I would never quit, but those early and crude by today's standards, e-cigs, did the trick.
I have two Screwdrivers (bought during a 2-fer sale.) Learned that I can't use a bottom button. I should probably put them up for sale one day.
I don't think I've ever seen anyone who was "banned" before. Usually they've "moved on."

Well, honestly, it's not like all of us who ran uphill in the snow were successful back then.
The failure rate was really high in those days, and now you almost have to work hard not to succeed.
I just love how far we've come.
And to think that in 2009/2010 it all could have come to a halt.
Yeah, I had to tell him I was buying them from V4L at the time pre-filled, I think it was like $9 a box for five of them, plus shipping and I would go through 3-4 a day pretty easy! I was so excited when I found out I could refill them!
It certainly was an important fight with the FDA, DC2. I remember following it on Sun's and later Julie's thread. How we cheered, when the FDA lost.
Hi Poeia !!!
Hi Poeia !!!
Yes they did work. I had three batteries on different chargers at all times and a whole bunch of V4L (later Boge) cartos that needed constant topping off but they worked. That is, if they didn't short, sputter, spit hot eliquid in my mouth or burned the filller...
I'm still using cartos, Tweety, I sometimes still experience those things. LOL. Maybe, one of these days, I should get a tank.

Nah, just get a few of the new RDA's, you don't even have to rebuild them as cheap as they are getting, and they hold nearly as much as a carto does!
