Hi All,

Planning to kick the habit!
But have a couple of questions:

Looks easy to refill an E-lites Cartridge, but I am wondering if I should disconnect battery after use?
Will it help prolong the battery life if the cart. is disconnected after I use the E-lites ciggy?

TIA

I do not think disconnecting the battery would save any life...unless is is an automatic cigarette with no button. They tend to go off with air pressure changes. I would often have my pocket smoking (ghost vaping) at concerts. lol. A Joye 510 or joye e-roll may be a better choice. Even brands like panda cigs have been getting good reviews from reputable reviewers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=SptSjNRaNus.. really if you want to keep with the smaller form factor do some research. Try to find a brand that has a 510 connection. This will keep your options open in the future and refilling as easy as possible, while being cheap. The e-lites you mentioned are not 510 threaded and you will be at the mercy of only buying e-lites compatible products most likely.

I wasted a bit of time and money before I found something that worked for me. Now there is this forum where you can find all this useful info. Use it to your advantage.

Good luck!

If you're not concerned about it looking like a cig, I'd look into an ego kick or a twist that has variable voltage. Battery life will be a wholel lot better with those.

Hello & welcome John

I'm afraid nothing will help prolong the life of an e-lite battery They are way over priced & under perform. Plus you can't buy compatible parts elsewhere.

As Funkypunk says, you would do so much better buying an e-cig that is 510 threaded. And you would do even better if it's not a ciggie lookalike

Here is a list of good UK e-cig & e-liquid suppliers -

Thanks for that.
As a total newcomer to E-smoking, a friend of mine said he'd had found it easy to refill these e-Cigs, so decided to have a go!
I'd a feeling that it was on/off due to air pressure, but not too sure, your reply has confirmed this!

Thanks for the help . . . .

Agreed. I found the ego twist and vision batteries with any tank/cartomizer outperformed any blu cig or comparable third party company. Those lasted me a long while.

You can refill an E-Lites. It'll vape even worse and then you'll start smoking again, if you ever stopped in the first place.

I despair. They are simply terrible in every way. Lots of people say "they got me off the fags, so I won't hear bad words"...but I say "they never got me off tobacco and took my money with claims of nicotine and puffs comparable to "40" cigarettes.
