For that smooth hit you're referring to as Katya is pointing out, you have to remember your e-liquid is being vaporized off of a carrier material which is the silicia wick, it will only burn as much liquid as it holds and once it's done burning through that liquid you'll start getting that uncomfortable, scratchy hit that you're referring to, which is a dry hit. To rectify this, you have to remember that you're heating element is sitting at the top of your tank, even though the wicks are going downwards it doesn't always mean juice flows to the top as smooth as it should be or as fast. What you'd want to do is tilt it at a 45 degree angle when you're vaping all the way up to a 90 degree angle (sometimes more), as the level of the liquid decreases. What you're aiming to achieve is to get the liquid soaked into the wicks as smoothly and as quickly replacing whatever's been vaporized off quickly.

nice start out kit. should be sufficient for now. aa you go along, you'd find more things to buy and you'll build on that.

1) u can g mask it, or get a tiny RBA to pair it with
2) I believe it comes with a USB charger. I used my PC, iPhone charger and even my portable charging kit on it, no issues
3) u happy u on and off. switching off is basically to prevent accidental activation of the batt so it won't burn your atty
4) always blow out or clean with tissue. protects and makes your batt last longer.

lastly, don't do a benjabin please.

1) hmmm, g mask sounds interesting.. might ask&try.. whats a RBA.?
2) i'm asking cux i do have a portable charger i use for my various devices&was wondering if tt wld work..
3) yea, i've figured out my on/off routine..
4) ok, gotcha!

i knw benjabin's a member but i dont really get what u mean.?hahaha

I have a feeling that what you're describing is a 'dry hit.' Dry hits happen when you vape too fast and don't allow new juice to flow to the heating coil, resulting in a very unpleasant hot and dry hit--basically vaping hot air instead of moist vapor. Vaping is not like smoking. You have to take slower, longer puffs and then wait a bit. You'll figure it out. It takes time to learn the proper technique. Watch some Youtube videos and you'll get it in no time.

I don't quite understand what you mean by big brother. Eliquids are legal in this country.

hmm, tt sounds about right, i think.. here's what i currently do or have figured out.. i pressed e button for about a sec b4 taking a draw&e rest is pretty much like how i draw on a analog.. but thanks for e help!

not in my country, i think..

8 a day isn't that bad, I was a 2 pack a day smoker before I quit. But I didn't start out with an eGo, I went straight into variable voltage devices, that's probably the direction you'd want to be looking into for now. When you're more advanced you can start trying out rebuildables, but one step at a time. Deal with your device first, then your atomizer later.

got it! thanks, jett!

That's why I prefer the newer BCC (bottom coil changeable) clearomizers. Gravity works in your favor, as the coil sits on the bottom and it can be removed and replaced. Dirty coils can be cleaned easily by soaking them in a little vodka (or better yet, PGA--if you can get it). They can even be rebuilt, but I don't bother; they last a long time and they are cheap enough.

If you want to try them, I recommend Kanger T3 or Evod.

Ooops... You said locally, so I assumed you lived here.

you're actually in a sub forum called sg vapers, location "here" is actually in sg.: )

So sorry... I didn't realize. My mistake.

i actually just placed an order for a DCT with some cartos&a new drip tip with e recommendation frm a friend.

Ooops... You said locally, so I assumed you lived here.

So sorry... I didn't realize. My mistake.

no worries, mate!

 

[Jett1980s]

The DCT should be a good starter, although it won't look very nice on you eGo, but well, whatever works for now lol.

 

[chr0med.]

i got the 3.5ml one, so it may not be tt large..

 

[eyespan]

Mmmm. Dct. I like. Ultra smooth and heavy on the flavors. But i always "lao jui" if not careful.

 

[Jett1980s]

lol, it will overflood if you punch the hole too big, the carto itself holds about 1ml without the tank once the liquid fills. The thing about DCT is after filling it you pretty much have to let it sit for a little while, say 15-30min depending, so that the poly-filler material inside of it can soak up the e-liquid, during this process you will see that the liquid in your tank will start decreasing, that indicates that it's working. You would have to try and error on this one

Try it first with the pre-punched hole it comes with, if you find that you're getting dry hits, that means the liquid isn't flowing through the pre-punched hole fast enough, to rectify this, simply take a nail, one which tip fits the pre-punched hole and give it a few gentle hits with a hammer, once the hole is large enough then you should have no problem with it. Another method, or what some people like to do is that after they fill up the tank they start dripping liquid directly into the carto so they can vape on it right away, you can try that but it's prone to flooding if you're inexperienced and it will leak out through the bottom.

Also, do not be like me and take a drill to the carto lol, ah well... good times rofl. If you're experiencing juice flow issues, you only need to enlarge the hole slightly.

......
lastly, don't do a benjabin please.

LOL....everywhere i go, "Benjabin" become hot topic. haha.... soon it will be a "slang" for us to use.

aww… was just messing around…
I think…

 

[Hedgehog83]

lol....whatever it is, it quite interesting and at the same time intense to make me keep browsing n checkin the forum around 3.30 am in the morning to gain whatever i can get while i still can get it.

 

[chr0med.]

still have no idea on e benjabin thingy but wth..hahaha, shall search tmr..

wow, ok..i'll bear in mind about e holes in e carto.. haha, sounds quite x-rated e way some of u'll describe..lol!

Or you can be like me... drill through the poly-filler material and the heating coil... lol, but anyways just ask your friend what to do about it if he's the one the recommended it to you, there're many different brands out there, some with slit slots and some with pre-punched holes, so your friend will know best about what you're getting.

 

[chr0med.]

i'll be ordering e pre punch, dual hole carto in a set of 5s with a DCT. he mentioned tt should be sufficient but we'll see lorh.. waiting on e delivery&stuff..

 

[Jett1980s]

Sounds ok, I'm just digging up experience from the past lol, I haven't used a carto in forever, not since I went into rebuildables anyways.

 

[chr0med.]

haha, yea.. thanks for sharing!
