well as the title says i just got my joye 510 kit yesterday from cignot.com, and i also bought 6 5ml bottles with an assortment of flavors.
i got it around 3pm, and since then ive only smoked 4-5 analogs, which i think is pretty good considering my pack a day habit. when im vaping it seems to hold off the urge to smoke pretty good, but every once in a while i just get that urge for the 3,999 other chemicals other than nicotine. i was just wondering if anyone else is having, or has had this problem when they first started.
also im using 26mg redbull right now, and im direct dripping about two drops at a time, but i only get a few decent puffs, any way to solve this so i get more like 8-12 decent puffs? should i use a cart? modded/not?
im still waiting to try clove, 555, ry4, and vanilla. all 26mg
im trying to see what one delivers the best throat hit, well not the best but most similar to analogs.
any suggestions on flavors?

sorry for me just rambling on here, just need some help.

thanks in advance!

I got my 510 kit about 2 weeks ago and I love it! I am down from 40 analogs down to 2-10.... I want to quit completely and soon. I am just waiting on new attys because I burned my first one up. Then Im going to get serious again. Vaping is the first thing ever to help me cut down on my smoking, and I love it for that. Try some stronger juice if you need to at first. Im on 32 mg from bearjuiceweebly.com

Classic, give that Atty a little time to "break in".. You probably don't have all the primer burnt off, so what you think is just a couple of puffs of juice, is the juice get's diluted with the primer, and tastes terrible.

I get about an analogs worth of drags on 2 drops direct dripped. Most efficient use of juice, and best vapor/flavor, so just hang with it, and your Atty will begin responding!

PS - Are you making sure your drips are hitting the Atty bridge in the middle? :)

The impression I first got when I was vaping was that the e-cig was meeting my need for nicotine. The problem is with an analog, it's more like freebasing nicotine. And nicotine isn't the only addictive substance in there. So vape... A lot. It's funny becuase you feel withdrawls (nothing like going cold turkey because you're still getting nicotene) but you can't really put your finger on it. There's some underlying addictive element.

It's the same reason that when I'm vaping, if I get caught in a situation where I can't vape for an hour or two, that's alright. My craving for nicotene is kind of a minor thing now. Now I really crave the flavor and the action of vaping.

Those 4000 chemicals weren't put in there by accident!

It takes a while for reality to kick in. If you can cut your cigarette intake to 25% overnight, anything is possible. When I started I vaped at night and smoked during the day at work. Just to see if I could go 4-6 hours without a cigarette. It worked like a champ. Next thing you know you'll be giving your old cigarettes away. And you will NOT be missing the trek down to the gas station to pick up cigarettes either!

Definitely Daffy! Why would I throw good money away on analogs, that I could be spending on Juice! I did the cold turkey switch over. But, I was really ready, and vaping just happened to work out for me, to allow it. I've had a couple of mild cravings, well one or two heavy ones. They're usually when I'm having to deal with someone that is "high drama". I have no patience for self serving drama, but now I just tell them, that the mode of conversation isn't healthy for my analog free life, and I will talk to them later. Cut out the things that make you want an analog!

I also have a 510 and I use the blue foam mod...I got my blue foam from my supplier and I have to say it works so much better!!! I use PG base right now but I get great throat hit and great flavor too and lots of vapor. I recomend at least trying it out and seeing what you think. With this mod it holds a lot more juice and will last you a while. I hope this helps and congrats!!!

If you're only getting a few decent puffs from a couple of drops on a 510 atomizer, well then you can join my club since that's all I get too. You must be taking some monster drags, just like I do.

So yeah, you might want to consider using cartridges, but you will definitely need to use a new filler material at the rate you're going. The blue foam is an excellent choice to start with. Later you may want to look into some of the other more complicated choices.

Blue Foam mod thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/cartridge-mods/27723-eheim-filterpad-mod.html

Another thing you might consider is getting a 306 atomizer to use on your 510 batteries for dripping. It holds more drops and it is a pretty nice little atomizer. I use mine for dripping when I'm at home and use my 510 atomizer with cartridges when I'm on the road.
