Ok guys I just got my first real e-cig. I've only tried disposables. Now thanks to the awesome ppl on this forum *shout out to Albert* for helping me select the best options. I ended up getting an Ego C Twist, stardust wicks and some atomizers an cardomizers, along with my first juices

safe to say guys I'm so overwhelmed that all the videos an research into making the best decisions for e-cigs has flown out the window when it comes to ACTUALLY USING IT, theres just so many items here, (I do have everything I need) but I'm just very unsure what to do!!!!

like... do I just pour juice into the clearomizer

whats the real difference between the cartomizer an atomizer, what should I be doing, AHHHHHH OVERWHELM OVERLOAD

Just fill and go. Don't pour any juice down the center of either, but if you do just gently blow from the top and dry the bottom with tissue before attaching to your batt. You may want to wait 2 or 3 min. after filling for the juice to soak in.
Don't inhale right away, take a few short primer puffs first taking notice of the flavour. It should not taste burnt. If it does you may need a little more juice in the carto. I recommend the condom method to fill completely.
Take it slow and have tissues handy.

Welcome to vaping BTW.:vapor:

Congrats on the switch!.... To fill the stardust unscrew the tip/mouthpiece, when you look in the top you will see a small metal hole surrounded by clear rubber DO NOT drip into that hole it is the airflow hole instead tilt at a 45 or so and drip slowly onto the inside of the tank. you want the juice to go down between the rubber and the inside of the "tank". fill to just about the bottom of where the wicks feed into the middle of the unit. Screw the top back on and give it a few mins to wick into the coils. The first few hits will taste a little metallic as the coil needs to be broken in. I find a good spot on the stardusts to be just below 4.0 on the twist.

I would advise emailing Tom at canvape.com , explaining what you would like to do, and I'm sure he will guide you along. As a matter of fact, if you talk to most of the Canadian retailers, they will give you good advice and help you along :)

Like everyone said, tilt it and fill, but it's important to tilt the stardust one way, and tilt the tip of the bottle the other way, like this show

How to Fill a Vision eGo Clearomizer (aka CE4+ or Stardust Clearomizer) - YouTube

An atomizer is basically a heating wire (coil) with some wick material in it. Just an atomizer you can drip liquid onto the coil 2-3 drops at a time and vape with a drip tip on it.

A cartomizer like a boge filler type, has an atomizer (atty) head in the bottom of it below the filler material

A clearomizer like the stardust will have an atty head either at the top or the bottom (top coil or bottom coil) and it pulls the juice onto the coil and heats it. Top coil (TC) will have a warmer vape than a bottom coil (BC) because the TC heats the liquid closer to your mouth.

Welcome to the club Tebo :)

I would start with the stardust, and as RofG said, just fill by tipping the stardust so that you DO NOT get juice down the centre metal hole.
It's a lot like first time sex, a bit messy and awkward, but holds great prospects for the future:D

so to make sure, I take off the tip peice, and then right in the narrow hole I pour the juice right?!!

Ok, need more information cuz I don't see how that's possible unless you have the replaceable kind where the tube screws into the bottom and you didn't screw it in. lol Even if you got some in the tube, I don't see how you could possibly get all of it in there for all of it to drip out. Unless there is a hole in the bottom of your ce4.

Did it drip out, or gush out? Did it come out of the battery connector, or from the skirted area in general?

like I said, tilt the clearo one direction and the bottle the other direction, this will make the dripper tip of the bottle angle towards the wall of the clearo, so when you drip liquid, you will be dripping it down the side of the clearo. Make sure the white silicone cap is on top of the metal stem where the coil is.

If it's gushing out a lot, then I'd say you have a faulty clearo if you've checked everything else.

my stardust wicks when not in the battery have a blatant hole, its suppose to be hollow.... there is nothing blocking the bottome dude

its not suppose to be like that , there is nothing faulty
