New User Question - DSE901-B

[srusso]

My wife got me a DSE901-B for Christmas!! I love it and its really cool. There is a hole in the atty for air... I noticed that if I cover the hole, like say a "carb" and by covering it and uncovering it while pulling it... it makes more smoke!? Is that hole a carb or am i missing up my new toy?

Be careful covering the hole - your atomizer can get really hot and burn up if you do that. It needs the fresh air intake to work properly.

Like hot to the touch? How can I tell? For now I will take it easy.

The easiest way to get more vapor is to drip on the atty or top-off the cart with a 2 or 3 drops of liquid every 5 or 6 drags. Also, I started using the Blue Foam Cart mod yesterday. It's designed for the 510 but is working very well with my 901. I haven't needed to top-off but I'm using a lot more liquid. To produce more vapor and flavor, it takes more liquid.

yeah... I dont have any liquid yet, just these starter carts. I dont really care about the taste, could water be used?

easiest and fastest thing to do is get a bottle of vegetable glycerin USP and mix with some lorann's flavorings available at the pharmacy or market, read up in the DIY forum. Definitely get some e-juice ordered to refill your cartridges and keep you off the analogs. You will know if your atomizer is to hot by the heat above that hole, as stated it needs to be open for air flow. Plain water really won't vape. You can get most e-juice delivered within a few days, there's a lot of great vendors on this forum!

What type of stores carry this? Stop and Shop? GNC? Walgreens? Could I use only the vegetable glycerin? Could I "top-off" one of my carts with water without missing up my 901?

OMG, THANK YOU!!!

I got "Africare 100% Glycerin" Kosher, No Animal Fat. I am using it now, it is odder-less, tasteless, and creates loads of vapor!! I pulled out a filter, ran it under water untill it was clear/white. padded dry on a towel and dipped it in the glycerin, popped it back in cart! It creates 500% more smoke, then these damn starter carts. Thanks again!

Is that Africare .... 100% vegetable glycerin? It just says 'natural glycerin'
