1) How long do you vape b4 putting your appliance down (approx mins/second) and how long are you finding yourself able to in between vaping 'sessions'(don't know what to call this)?

an hour. If I am off though I will vape for hours on end and one new XL lasted me from 830AM till 10ish pm and that's heavy vaping.

2) How long should 1 new cartomizer last?

That depends on how much you vape and how long. I go through 2-4 a day depending if I'm off of work then its 3 or 4. If I'm working its 2.

3) Approx how long (in inches) is the King battery w/o the cartomizer on it and how long is it w/ it on?

The size of a 100 analog

4) Same as 3 but for the XL batteries.

I'd say 1.5x the size of a 100 analog

5) On manual batteries - Do you hear an internal click and bubble sort of sound when you pull? Is this normal and if so, what does the click sound mean?

Click comes from the battery and bubble might mean carto is over filled. A snap will come from the premmy carto also.

6) Also manuals - if you press the button during charging is the LED supposed to or not supposed to turn on?

Mine doesn't turn on.

7) Do V4L batteries have blue or other color (outside of red) LED's? If so, would you mind sharing a link to this info, if possible?

Yes they have blue green and orange that I know of. here is the proof.

YouTube - smilin/555 mix

8) How many times within 24 hrs, are you/have you found the need to change batteries?

I have XL's so far with the new ones its one.

9) In the one video about refilling cartos at the storefront, about halfway through, the person demonstrating how they are refilled, shows a black board of some sort, that stands the cartos upright. I couldn't make out what he said it was. Do you know what that thing is? Also, he's talking about refilling pre-filled cartos --- does this apply to blanks also and which do you get more use out of - the prefilled or the blank cartos?

10) How many different flavs do you vape on an average day? (just curious)

One-two a day.

and, finally...

11) Do you find vaping makes you slightly a) relaxed b) hyper or c) no difference. (for long-term vapor users - how long did it take for you to get your energy level back and did you notice any changes in your appearance(ie - more color in your face, etc.)??????

My battery is taking 1/2 as long to charge, lol!

Is that an improvement since you started vaping? (hope so!)

3) Approx how long (in inches) is the King battery w/o the cartomizer on it and how long is it w/ it on?

The size of a 100 analog

This is starting to make sense now....mine's slightly longer than 100 size but....

4) Same as 3 but for the XL batteries.

I'd say 1.5x the size of a 100 analog

not that long!

5) On manual batteries - Do you hear an internal click and bubble sort of sound when you pull? Is this normal and if so, what does the click sound mean?

Me=b - seriously b, lol!

You didn't tell us about your energy level, etc. Are you feeling better vaping?

Have a great evening, Kraziekid & thanks for posting to this!!!

 

[Adrenalynn]

A regular with regular cartomizer is ~117mm long. Approximately the same length as the 120's I used to smoke.

Lol no problem. I am always here for any questions you might have, if you have anymore please feel free to pm me.

My energy if im stressed and I vape is very relaxed and calm, I wish I can get hyper. My depression makes me very slow and relaxed. But when I get stressed or mad it will happen very fast. Once I vape I calm down.

 

[Stoked!]

I feel like there should be a warning on the top of every post from Adrenalynn:
"Hostile Forum Member: Take No Offense"

Adrenalynn, is your purpose to help people? I truly believe that it is!!! Could you go about it in a more tactful manner. You really just turn people's interest off and they don't even read what you have to say because of the attacking manner in which you say SOME things. ALSO, you did this to a brand new user which could cause them to shy away from this amazingly supportive forum, which would be really sad!!!

I agree completely that vaping while pregnant wouldn't be a good idea...unless using VG and no-nic....and then it still is VERY questionable at this date and time with the lacking research. I also agree that if a bunch of people started talking about vaping while pregnant that it would be a terrible thing for "the vaping movement". On the other hand, there are way more tactful methods of getting your point across without pointing fingers and individuals on this forum....which I've seen you do before. You could have said "Sounds good WOW, but getting pregnant and vaping may be VERY DANGEROUS and I would hate for you or anyone else to get the impression that this is the answer for smokers who want to get pregnant!...etc." That would have been accepted as a supportive and even caring comment that the forum is supposed to have.

WE LOVE YOUR INFORMATION Adrenalynn!!!! We just need a softer tone. Some of your posts make me want to QUICKLY close the page right after reading it because your posts are just so upsetting to me sometimes. I feel so bad for the person that you are attacking and also feel embarrassed to be a forum member with such meanies on here. I think I'm a blunt person like you! Sometimes I totally "shoot off at the mouth" and am proud of it!! On the other hand, I don't think that this forum is the place for it due to the natural purpose of the site.

Sorry if I stepped on your toes....but I'm hoping to stop seeing nasty posts by you with such helpful information in them. I want the info without the attitude please.

We are working on answering WOW's questions with compassion lets continue on that note!!!!!!!!!

Welcome WOW and keep the questions coming!!!

 

[Stoked!]

ABOUT REFILLING: Here is a video link to my favorite method of refilling....but the video is done with OLD SCHOOL cartos so once he is done putting drops in....you can stop watching the video. The rest of the instructions are below in this post: YouTube - Refilling a Cartomizer

I personally don't wear gloves but if I get juice on my hands at all I wash them ASAP...almost immediately (sometimes with wet wipes) so the nic doesn't soak into my skin.

DON'T LEAVE THE BOTTOM RUBBER CAP ON THE BATTERY END LIKE HE SAYS TO IN THE VIDEO! NO SPINNING IN BATTERY BAG NEEDED ON NEW CARTOS!

(they say 32 drops/empty premium and wow; 34-36 in empty coolcarts)
With premium, wow and cool carts: put drops in (as seen in the video link above...although I do like to twist the carto around while I'm dripping) until they start going in more slowly then you want drip slowly and stop when you think that it won't absorb any more. If you drip one or 2 drops over...no biggie...(you will see juice lying on the top of the batting) put the cap back on.... the extra juice will start to come out of the bottom end (battery end) of the carto. Just use something absorbent to soak up the juice that may drip out of the battery end and clean it all up before attaching to your batt for vaping. Make sure its done dripping before reattaching to battery especially when using auto batts because you don't want juice in your batt. Holding absorbent product to end of batt will cause this process to go quickly sort of pulling the extra out of the batt end of the carto. I use small pieces of bounty paper towels. ALL OF THIS GOES FOR EITHER EMPTY OR PARTIALLY FULL NEW CARTOS (Premium, WOW & Cool Carts)!!

HAPPY VAPING AND WELCOME WOW!!!!!!!!! STICK WITH US!!! THIS FORUM & V4L SAVED ME!!

1) How long do you vape b4 putting your appliance down (approx mins/second) and how long are you finding yourself able to in between vaping 'sessions'(don't know what to call this)?
During work hours I vape a little bit because I can't vape in front of the kids I work with. I would say I take 3-5 good drags at a time during work and do so every 45ish minutes. I go through 1.5 cartos at work...but I like very full cartos so I am most likely really vaping 1/day at work. I also vape 11mg at work and lower at home or when off work because I vape more. I vape 4mg during the 2 hours before bed or I can't fall asleep. I vape 8mg when I'm off work and not about to go to sleep. I vape almost constantly when not at work. RE Cartos: I go through maybe 4 half-fills or 2 full-fills/night between 5 &10:30PM. I may get distracted and forget for 30 mins here and there but I always have at least 2 batteries on me and 6 cartos all different flavors. On weekends I can't even imagine how much juice I may go through.

2) How long should 1 new cartomizer last?
answered in #1

5) On manual batteries - Do you hear an internal click and bubble sort of sound when you pull? Is this normal and if so, what does the click sound mean?
Button clicks and bubbles and popping are from the juice in the cartos. Love the popping. Not many cartos do it but enjoy it if you have some!!!

6) Also manuals - if you press the button during charging is the LED supposed to or not supposed to turn on?
No

8) How many times within 24 hrs, are you/have you found the need to change batteries?
Depends on how much you vape. I can go through 1 reg at work and 2 regs at night...or 4-5 on weekends.

9) In the one video about refilling cartos at the storefront, about halfway through, the person demonstrating how they are refilled, shows a black board of some sort, that stands the cartos upright. I couldn't make out what he said it was. Do you know what that thing is? Also, he's talking about refilling pre-filled cartos --- does this apply to blanks also and which do you get more use out of - the prefilled or the blank cartos?
See my post before this one to see my favorite refilling method.

10) How many different flavs do you vape on an average day? (just curious)
One primary flavor that I'm hooked on...but may have puffs of up to 10 different flavors per day if I have the supplies for that. I find it fun to mix it up!!

11) Do you find vaping makes you slightly a) relaxed b) hyper or c) no difference. (for long-term vapor users - how long did it take for you to get your energy level back and did you notice any changes in your appearance(ie - more color in your face, etc.)??????
When I first started vaping I was HYPER to no end!!!! It was sorta nuts actually!!!!
Now I feel normal. When I vape cause I need a fix it calms me down like an analog used to but when I'm vaping up a storm I do get a little hyper. I try to use 4mg if I'm REALLY VAPING UP A STORM so as to not overkill on the nic.
My chronic asthma is GONE!!! and has been since after the first week off analogs on vaping. My sense of smell and taste are both much improved. Morning cough is GONE and has been since the second week of vaping. My physical stamina is the COOLEST improvement. I was shocked. You won't know until you do some serious cardo and then you will be SHOCKED!....of course that's with the reduced asthma also....and after 18 years of smoking. If you are younger than me (37), or smoked for fewer years, maybe the difference won't be as noticeable???

I want the info without the attitude please.
[--- clip! ---]

I can appreciate that. And that is available as a commercial service. Let me know if you need an RFQ on that.

But what I can offer is some advice on that. It's what I do with several posters here, so you (and some others) may find my technique advantageous:

Hope that helps!

 

[Stoked!]

LOL!!! Touche! Thats good stuff!!!

 

[WOW]

Thanks Stoked.

Some people are good teachers, others good students and the rest, schoolyard heroes or bullies.

Nothing changes with age except, perhaps, the label adults identify themselves with.

Tired of the bs.



Take care.

WE LOVE YOUR INFORMATION Adrenalynn!!!!

But we don't love you? Your words are tactful but not your subtext. If you don't dig 'lynn's style, no big. People aren't required to like one another. But if you want to profit from her intelligence without interacting with the human being behind it, maybe some rethinking is in order.

 

[rocks82]

just back to the whole pregnancy/vaping 0 nic thing.

The only person you should be taking advice about this from is your OBGYN. Consult them on this topic before listening to anyone on a public forum.
