New Vaper here needing some help getting started

[ovlov]

Hi everyone,
Last week I finally bit the bullet and decided to switch to vaping. I ordered a Joytech 510T starter kit and a few different juices.
I've reviewed a lot of how tos on this site and they've been really helpful. However I have a couple of questions I think haven't been answered yet because they are so simple. Unfortunately I'm useless with DIY stuff and following instructions.

Q1- The starter kit I ordered said it came with everything just order ejuice. Which I did. But when I received them found on the label is said "this is designed to eb mixed with a 1:1 ratio". So my question is do I NEED to be mixing this? I assumed it was advice for mixing with nicotine solution (which I plan not to use so didn't get any). In which case is it ok to load it up and use it straight or am I meant to be mixing this with something else? (water? or do i need to buy some special mixer?)

Q2- In my first attempt at setting up i misread the instructions. I tried using the syringe provided to add juice after connecting the cart to the atty. then noticed juice pouring out the end of the atty and realized I had put the juice in the wrong end! (Yeah I'm ......ed ). Sow hat happens now? is the atty busted? does it need to be cleaned? I assume i just have to through the cart and juice out but hope i haven't already broken one of my new toys already.

any advice on these issues would be appreciated. Thanks guys

Q1: 1:1 ratio, looks like you bought doubler, so you should buy blank VG and PG from Vape King | Electronic Cigarettes | E-liquids | Atomizers | Cartomizers and mix with what you have same amount. Thus you need to add example 10ml of blank VG to 10ml of the juice you already have.

Q2: You can't pop the atty, it is only full of juice, just blow the atty out to a tissue or something, put all back together, fill the tank (the right way) and put it on the atty then vape away mate.

Good luck!!!

I think more likely it is talking about a 50-50 mix VG-PG and if he has something else it will likely work but not as well. If he goes and mixes in VG or PG after the fact it will reduce the Nic content and the flavor. Your math on that is off. If he mixed 10ml of Pg or VG to 10 ml of premixed 70/30 he would overshoot. 70% of 10 ml is 7 ml. and so on. He'd have to add a percentage of the pre mixed to get the 50-50.

On the other question what kind of atty a carto, clearo or tank?

Thanks for the help guys. Here's a link to the kit that I got:

Joye 510-T Starter Kit Automatic - Vapebar

I went back and checked the info on the juices I ordered and noticed that the description on the site says it is "true doubler". I just glossed over that bit before I think cos I didn't know what it meant. The Joye Ejuice I got doesn't seem to be doubler so I guess I can use that for now. I guess the other juices will have to wait until i make another order for the mixer. In this case what is the diff between mixing doubler with VG or PG? Which would be a better mixer if i'm not adding nicotine (if that matters)?

The commonly held belief is that PG will provide more flavor, while VG will give more visible vapor. Most online stores will offer a blend of the two, providing different flavor/vapor ratios.
So, for your own personal mixture, it would probably be helpful to have a couple experiments, maybe one batch at 80/20, another at 50/50, and a third at 20/80, and you could figure out what mix ratio you personally like.
