I cant stand this cleaning process anymore. and that cannot be good for you! I don't think I can continue vaping and I wil also say I am pretty convinced that breathing real analog cigs is not as bad for you as breathing burning plastic.
I think Im going to quit

if you are breathing burning plastic, you either have:
A. the wrong equipment
B. the right equipment being used wrong
A. the wrong equipment
B. the right equipment being used wrong
It's your choice jaross;
If you want help, we're here to help. If you quit, good luck.

i don't think you're supposed to be lighting your ecig.
sounds to me like you're trying to rationalize going back to analogs? i hope that when you say "quit", you mean "quit", as in totally. i wish you the best, really! nicotine can be a very powerful seductress.
Yikes!
Plastic versus the processed tobacco sold as "cigarettes" today would be a close draw in my opinion. What's going on with your stuff to get burning plastic though?
It's a hassle, I agree. Buying the cartons of smokies, lightin' one up and going for it was in many ways much easier (and more expensive for me anyway) but....there's a lot of things about cigarettes that one has to accept to make them "easier" - the smoke, the smell, the ashes, the refuse and trash, the snuffed "butts", the constant and real threat of setting not only your own ... on fire but the asses of innocents around you. Now that I've stopped I feel much better. I'm avoiding any smug 'tudes though - I was a 'smoker, true blue and all the way through.
Course now this...this thing, this e-cig plastic-metal-poker-pen-stick thing I'm sucking on, refilling, charging, coddling...
For me it's better.
I wish you the best! Perhaps another time, another day....

I've often wondered what, if any, additional new chemicals we're inhaling when these metal/plastic objects heat up and start to break down. I'm reminded of some Chinese mfrs and their fondness for lead, for example.
Good luck, OP.

Best of luck Juggalo. Stop by from time to time and let us know how you're doing.

well, that brings up a question...IS there lead used in making these things??!?!
Yep. Sounds like total rationalization to me, but to each their own. I'm 100% for freedome of choice. Vote Libertarian!
Okay, I've scanned through all of your posts Jaross, and it seems as though...
1) You want a stronger flavor zero nicotine liquid
2) You have been having trouble with a plastic burning taste at times
In regards to (1) above I think you should make your own juice.
It is easy to do, inexpensive, and you'll get the amount of flavor you want.
In regards to the plastic burning taste, I think you are vaping too hard and/or too fast and not giving the liquid time to wick back up into the atomizer. This is a taste I get as well with my 510 because it burns through the liquid pretty fast. I also noticed that you have been trying to get the filler further away from the atomizer, this may only serve to make your problem worse. The atomizer bridge MUST contact the filler or you will get no juice at all.
There are a number of things you can do about the wicking issues.
I would be happy to offer some suggestions if you're still around.

I have to totally disagree with the statement "If I can do it, anyone can". I've heard smokers who have gone "cold turkey" say that. I've heard sky divers say that. I've heard people who lost hundreds of pounds say that. Nope, don't work like that.
