Well, I been finding it rather easy to stick to the e-smoking instead of the normal cigs, bar my total blip last Saturady, where I decided to smoke the regular smokes during a works meal and alcholic beverage session :)

I have another slight blip on Tuesday night, was weekly poker game and all my the batteries went dud :( and ended up smoking a few cigarettes...

I really appreciate how important it now is to have a far more e-smoking paraphanalia than I first imagined.. The kits sold, in no way could keep you esmoking for a full day if you were a regular smoker 20ADAY Smoker...

I think minimum you really need:

2 Chargers
4-5 batteries
2 Running atomisers and a Spare

And loads of carts, I really find myself flying through the small carts of the DSE901 I have, doesnt help that they never seem to finish fully before a new one is required though. I also think Im going through more and more carts :oops: and am unsure how much nicotine Im consuming, I just hoping that if I went back to normal smoking I wouldnt be consuming 40ADAY :p
Also the carts just dont seem to taste as nice as they first did and I can see white blobs of melted whatever it is on my atomiser...

Also they seem to create quite a lot of interest, I have many friends interested to a degree in them all peaked by me walking around with my smoke belching blue LED pen....

Over all I quite happy with my e-smoking, but think it is more expensive than I imagined it first to be...

Anyways thanks again for a great board!

Yes I totally agree - you need at least that amount - LOL

As much as I use this thing as an "adult pacifier" - I would hate to think that my 20+ cigs per day went up even higher.

I can see white blobs of melted whatever it is on my atomiser...

It sounds like those are melted fibres - try to remove them with tweezers. I would check daily for any loose fibres in your atomizer, it will kill/clog your atomizer.

I seem to be flying through the carts, ordered some e-liquids from pillbox though, so hopefully that will make it cost less...

One of the ones I went for was lemon, his website has loads of flavours, trying to think of something I can stick into an empty cart to absorb the fluid so it not tainted by the flavour of the previous cartridge...

Was thinking of using these in some way

That is an interesting Idea! I am assuming you were thinking of putting the filter tips into the atomizer to absorb the remaining liquid? Although I dont think it will leach all of the liquid out of the atomizer, it will probably get a good portion of it out and that means that you will have to endure the hybrid e-liquid flavor situation for a shorter duration!!! There have been a few times when I have taken the cartridge out and taken several puffs to get rid of most of the liquid in the atomizer and that has helped a bit, but Im sure that is probably not the best method due to the overheating of the atomizer..

Let us know how that works out for you.

20aday what i do to stop mixing flavors is i have carts attached with elastic bands to each bottle.so there is a cart per bottle.
which ever bottle im using i use the cart attached to it.
this way the flavors don't ever get mixed.it seems to work well :)

I have noticed that if I switch flavors in an atomizer that I get a hybrid of the two flavors, sometimes its not bad like mixing vanilla with regular, but other times like when switching from one of the citrus flavors to vanilla, regular or apple it tastes horrible for quite a few puffs until the old juice is vaped out.... Of course that is mainly because I cant stand the lemon or orange flavors ;-)

you need to dry smoke it before you change carts this will help speed up the change of flavours with less mixing

gee lemon what disgusting smoke that would be anyway he he


Actually the lemony taste is ok, its the weird citrusy after taste that kills it for me... Im sure someone somewhere likes it though :)

So far I have to say that Apple is my favorite flavor... Which is odd since when I first started vaping I was sure that I was gonna hate all the fruity flavors!

Ah well, if the lemon is awful, I thankfully got some cherry as well. hopefully arrive today :)

I though I could use the filter tips in a cart to soak up the e-liquid in an old cart, instead of using the old material that was already used by another flavour..

And cheers kit, good idea to fix a cart with band, simple but saves getting them all mixed up!

what other flavours do you dude :)

Not quite sure what you mean?? If you are asking what other flavors am I finding myself in excess of, then I would have to say orange and rose... Im in the starting faze of my business here and I got a tone of samples, some of which I dont like and quite a few of which I do...

If you want a couple of the rose or orange let me know and Ill send them your way...
