Massive Noob with NO Manual!!

[Missa]

I've been reading and asking questions all day - waiting for my husband to get home so we can try this out together. So he gets home and asks me where is the manual?

8-o Yeah, I guess Cigtechs doesn't put one in with them. Sooo, I was wondering if anyone out there knows if there are manuals for the Joye 510 out there on the internet anywhere? I've done a search on this forum and on Google and all I get are results for manual battery not manual like a book. I was on another thread today talking about using the device for 20 minutes before charging, etc. and now I'm wondering how dumb we are witout a manual.

I'm actually batting zero with this whole thing today. I went out to get VG so we'd be prepared (no juice in the mail today) and no drug stores had it. So basically we're sitting here looking at this stuff dying to try it but feeling super dumb. Suggestions, cautions before we just go for it?

Follow the link below to Innovapor (it's the video section). You may have to sign in and/or register to their site to view the vids. Scroll down to where it says "Intro to 510". And then to "510 user guide". This will get you started painlessly. =)

Missa they do carry manuals form what i was told cigtechs last 510 kits came without them, due to shortage at the plant. There blackhawk and future kits will supply them as normal. it was just there last shipment that did not have them. You can email them, i think they have a pdf file of the manual if you like.

Are you kidding me? This forum is better than any manual. Please don't be shy, if you have a question, ask. I promise you will receive a plethora of information on the 510. Most of us actually own one.

BTW congrats on your decision to start a better life!

I don't have one yet, but those videos are very helpful. Took a lot of the mystery of the whole thing out of it for me. I can't wait to get one now!

Missa;
Check the sticky threads above your post in this Forum. Better than any manual.

 

[Missa]

Thanks I did get an email from Chris at Cigtechs saying that they do provide manuals but did not get them with their last shipment.

I just don't understand what to do with the thing - I mean do you just start toking away on it the way it comes out of the box? Do we have to put a cartridge in there or is there already one? I did watch a few videos that were helpful but none really adressed what to do straight out of the box.

 

[Nole1028]

The ultra-brief version....

1. Charge your battery.
2. Screw the atomizer onto the battery.
3. insert cartridge into atomizer.
4. Practice your vape. It's not like smoking an analog. It will take some time to learn. I always recommend a slow pull in a quiet room so you can hear your atty crackling.

Did you get cartridges with caps on them and yellow-ish looking filters inside? Most come with several prefilled carts to get you started. The standard package has 5. I would click on the search button and read on "aligning carts". This isn't something that is covered in any manual.

Oh and in the New Members section - click on: Helpful links and videos for a new user. It's the 7th thread from the top.

These videos show everything from start to finish as JD said.

 

[Missa]

Yeah they're little black end peices with clear caps on them.

I went to hobby lobby and picked up some Wilton's brand glycerin. It is food grade vegetable glycerin. I have heard that Walmart carries it, but I am yet to find it. If you have no juice but want to vape a good alternative (but no nicotine) is to mix about a 50/50 mix of Wilton's glycerin with distilled water. Kind of a sweet flavor but nothing great. You can still get your vape on this way. Hope this helps!

 

[Nole1028]

Those are your cartridges. They probably have a Marlboro flavor (which tastes nothing like them) at 18mg of nicotine. Take off the end cap and plug it together with your atomizer. When your battery is fully charged, screw the atomizer/cart combo onto your battery and you are ready to vape!

There are the instructions that come with the 510 verbatim. Just in case you're still curious about what you're missing out on.

 

[Missa]

Thank you!!!! You guys are great this helps a lot! It's probably my own fault, should have researched more before I bought. We'll give it a whirl here in a little while.

Thanks again!

That Wilton's glycerin must be some thick stuff...

I mix my generic glycerin about 90/10 with water or Everclear to get it down to PG consistency.

Yeah, it is super thick. Kind of like a thick syrup.

 

[Missa]

Well we're all go here!!! We both love it! I honestly can't believe it, totally satisfying. Like magic! Never found the VG anywhere tho not sure what to do about that. But the device and the cartidges are awesome already! I'm so happy!!

 

[kcr]

That's great! Have fun

Do you have a bakery supply or other cooking supply company? They should have glycerine.

Did you check the candy-making section of Walmart? I think they have it--or any hobby store that has candy-making supplies.

Lorann's also has it, if you are planning to order any flavoring.

I ordered a pint bottle of glycerin at my local pharmacy since they were out. I've also found it at Walmart in the hand cream area. You can ask the pharmacist if you can't find it and they can usually tell you where it is. Also can buy the Wilton's brand at craft stores in the cake icing section.
