New member, just started using GreeSmartLiving

[sh_]

Hello everyone,

I looked at this forum and seems really interesting and have alot of people here willing to help and giving really good information.

I've read a few topic and decided to register.

I was doing some research on e-cigs and ended up buying one to know how it is and, surprise surprise, I liked!

I dont know about the best option for beginners but I bought a GreenSmartLiving (GSL) with Regular and Flavored cartridges. I really liked, specially the clove flavor.

I didnt see any other messages here for this brand and I would like to know if anyone know this brand or had any experiences with it.

Thanks everyone and happy "vapping"

Hi sh! Welcome. Hope to see your around more.

My coworker started with that exact kit, and good news is, it's a "510" threaded battery, meaning you have a bunch of options if you need supplies.

Mind you, the batteries are "automatic", so that little hole you see in there at the top of the battery is a weak point - if juice gets in there, it could kill your battery.

Anyhow, you could purchase blank cartomizers here and save yourself a lot of money just refilling them as opposed to buying the GSL prefilled cartos. (Don't forget to click the 20% off in the top left corner, and ensure that you get the "510 3ohm" cartos because anything less will burn out your battery.) There are a lot of well-reviewed clove flavors from various juice houses here on the forum. Search the juice reviews subforum for "clove" and you'll get a ton of great reviews and feedback.

You'll get a lot of good recommendations here as well I'm sure. Have fun!

Thanks for the prompt answer brianishiwa, I really appreciate it!

The only question is whats the specific model that I should get for the cartomizer, I was looking the link that you sent and theres a lot of options there.

Should I get the Boge 510 Cartomizer - LR (Black) - 5 Pack ?

Sorry the newbie question, but with this cartomizer I will only have to buy the e-liquid and I am good to go?

Is there any recommendation of what should and shouldnt be done to refill a cartomizer?

Thanks again for the help.

You have a 510. The threads on the battery are what makes it a 510. No, do not use LR stuff on it. LR means low resistance, and the small batteries can't handle them. The fat battery models, such as the eGo, Riva 510, Kgo, etc, can handle them. You want SR stuff. SR means standard resistance.

Welcome to the wonderful world of vaping! There's a bit of a learning curve to it...at least there was, and still, is for me. Read, research, listen and before you know it you'll have found a pgreat setup. You're on the right track. Anything to keep off the analogs.

Should I get the Boge 510 Cartomizer - LR (Black) - 5 Pack ?
Get these: "Boge 510 Cartomizer 2.7 Ohm (Steel) - 5 Pack" (anything lower resistance will fry your battery, unless you decide to buy a "fat batt" as mentioned above. If economy is an issue, but you don't mind having a bigger albeit much better battery, get this. You can even use your GSL charger to charge it!)

Sorry the newbie question, but with this cartomizer I will only have to buy the e-liquid and I am good to go?
Yes. There are a ton of great e-liquid options. BlueMistVaping & ParkesVaping have great prices and are well received, and you can't go wrong with the other steadfasts, like KickBassVapor, Mrs. T's, Backwoods Brew, Alien Visions, Tasty Vapor, etc.

Is there any recommendation of what should and shouldnt be done to refill a cartomizer?
Search the forum and you'll get tons of links, videos, etc. There's the condom method, Taryn spin, drip method, & Vapian's amazing cartomizerfillinator. You should keep the cartomizer moist. You shouldn't flood it, which is especially important if you keep using the stock GSL battery, because juice can leak into that hole.

Thanks again for the help.
No problem. Ask away, don't be shy. We're all here to help.

Sh_ welcome to ECF! I know you will find the answers to your questions, there are some very knowledgeable people here. Post often and let us know how you're doing.

Not quite cartomizers are part of your consumables. They may last anywhere from a few refills to many months. Depending on the type and how you treat them.

I agree with brianishiwa recommendations for cartomizers.

However we don't know what will work for you. This isn't like going to the store and buying a pack of cigarettes. There is an overwhelming number of choices and you have to try things and most likely make a few mistakes. Read the forums and ask questions.

Haven't heard of them, but a couple of websites to check out that have some affordable e cig supplies for newcomers are madvapes.com and altsmoke

Thanks guys
