OK so i got my kit, everything works but i have some issues right now
Now i have from freedomsmokes
Hypnotic mist 24mg 40/60
Watermelon 24mg 30/70
sample of florida citris 24mg and hawaiian tropic 24mg sample.

1) Hypnotic mist produces such a th it makes me cough....and semi hurt. is that due to the nic level?

2) I have gotten from mist and hawaiian like 0 to null flavor if any. I feel like im just puffing air.

3)How many drops does a normal eGo cart take to fill properly? IS the lakc of flavor due to lack of juice?

sorry for the newbish questoins but this is my first go at it.

ok first off...on a brand new atty you still need to blow out the primer it ships with and reprime it...
take the atty off...and hold the thread end in a paper towel and blow fairly hard into it til nothing comes out...turn it around and blow from the thread end... drip about 4-5 drops onto the atty bridge and do it again...clean the threads and put it back on and drip 2-3 drops ....flavor should start coming through and improve in about 10-15 drags...

the cart...if it's a blank what I do is take the filler out....fill the cart about half to 3/4 of the way and then put the filler back in....top it off by dripping onto the top...til the top kinda looks a little "slushy"...

the TH could be how you're inhaling too...until you're used to it...don't direct inhale to the lungs but to the mouth and then to the lungs.... this is one of those things that people lump into the e-cig learning curve... it could also be combined with the atty primer if you didnt blow out and prime the atty first...

hang on you'll get it soon...

so you want me to blow the juice through the atty? basically almost like infusing the addy with the juice?

you can remove the filter without hurting the cart? And when you said drop luquid into the cart like into the empty cart like the plastic part? will that hurt me any if luquid get near my mouth?

Since you did not blow out the primer first, you need to do that now. It should help to remove the nasty tasting primer and help ease up the massive throat hit your getting.

you can remove the filter without hurting the cart? Yes, use tweezers and reach down around either side of the white filler and pull it out. Place it on a plate.
And when you said drop luquid into the cart like into the empty cart like the plastic part? Yes, after removing the filler from the cart, drip juice into the cart till about 3/4 full. Use your tweezers to slowly replace the filler. Drip a drop of e-liquid down onto the mesh in the atomizer and replace the cart onto the atomizer.will that hurt me any if luquid get near my mouth? As long as you wipe everything down you should be fine, try not to get the e-liquid on your mouth by wiping everything down and wash your hands if some gets on them
Hope this helps.

If you have just stopped smoking - or if you are an elderly person - you may find that an e-juice that is very tasty to the average vapor you may have problems tasting at all.

If it is just that you have just stopped smoking - your sense of taste will revive in a couple of weeks. If you are elderly like me - your sense of taste will not revive completely. If that is the case you have a few choices. You can go and read the e-liquid reviews and pick e-liquids that others complain as being much too strong; or you can buy flavorings in flavors that compliment the e-liquids you have chosen to add some extra flavor; or you can start mixing you e-juice yourself and mix it a lot stronger then you can buy it. I am old enough where I am having to mix my e-juice at 40%-60% flavorings - while the average vaper vapes e-juice at with 5%-20% flavoring - but that is just the way it is.

As for taste and flavor, those only you can say what they are like to you. As everyone says taste are different.
Sounds, by the names that those are some easy going, light and airy type flavors. With the exception of Hyp. Mist.
Is the 40/60, 30/70 a mix of 40pg/60vg and 30pg/70vg? The more vg you add the more flavor that gets lost.
Keep working with what you have and order something that would be of a stronger taste set for you. When the new stuff gets there, put this up to sit for awhie and let your taste buds begin to heal from years of smoking.
You might really begin to tatse and like these more as time goes by. You definately will not feel like you are eating watermelon.
