The kit comes with 2 atomizers, so you don't need to buy any more of them. Just be aware of what they are for and get 510 sized drip tips. Drip tips are only $2-3. You need at least one, or you'll waste more cartomizers than the drip tip costs.

Damnit, AEliquids doesn't sell drip tips. Too late to try and call to change my e-power order.
Edit: And just ordering drip tips from Crystal Clear vaping is too small a $ amount to complete the order.

I would call them in the morning, or send them an email now, referencing your order number. They'll probably give you one for free if it's more trouble to re-charge your credit card. They might throw one in for free anyway. A lot of vendors toss stuff in for nothing, samples and stuff.
I'll tell you something else. It's 9PM where they are. If you called them right now, I wouldn't be particularly surprised if they answered. This is like a two man operation, maybe the wife and kids help out or something. But it's not a big impersonal store.

Are these drip tips: Joye 510 Electronic Cigarette Cartridges for your ECig - Buy Now!
And will those work with the e-power kit I ordered from Crystal Clear Vaping?

Email sent. The kit COMES with a 30ml bottle of liquid, and it said you get to pick flavor at checkout. I didn't get a chance to pick any flavor though!! So I put that in the email and also put in that I'd like, if any way possible, to add drip tips to the order.
I'm sure you'll hear back from them. Need to think about what nic level you want too.
I just read more closely. It said to specify strength and flavor in notes at checkout for the 30ml bottle.
However I don't know what the flavor and nictoine choices are!! Anyone know so I can send him a quick email?
Edit: Oh well sent him another email. I inspected the site closely, went almost through ordering another one, nowhere does it list nicotine or flavor choices. It comes with 5 pre-filled "tobacco" flavor, so I said if the choice was "menthol vs tobacco" I'll take menthol, but if there were other options closer to a pipe or cigar I'd take those, or anything fruity. And 16mg nicotine. *shrug*
THANK YOU to all who helped me today! I learned a lot, everyone was respectful, I did add $3 for priority mail so it should be here soon

If you're not happy with any of the juices you get with your starter kits you may want to give Bella Valente from halocigs.com a try. It's a pretty good match to a cigar, in my opinion. The vanilla isn't overpowering at all, in fact it's just a slight hint. I liked it. Good luck!
I've sent a lot of people to that site for that deal and this is the first time I've heard of that happening. I don't know what's going on. You'll hear from them tomorrow and they'll get you sorted out. All the juice names are goofy anyway and usually not a very good to determine what they taste like. Best thing is to tell them what kind of flavor you're looking for and let them recommend one.
Ok I did describe what I would like, hope they come up with something nice for me (and throw a few drip tips in
It IS weird that he says to write into the notes what you want but never gives you the "menu" he has. And if he has all these 30ml bottles of flavors, why isn't he selling them?
I'll check out halocigs, a vanilla cigar sounds nice!

This so true, I started out looking for an electronic equivalent of my Camel Crush. Bought a Blu (what a mistake), the cartridges are exspencive and the flavored are limited. Then got a 510-t, Much better product and the ability to try any e-juice I want, the battery's don't last that long. So I got a PCC, that solved the battery problem but I wanted something that I would not have to change the cartridges as often.......... I think you get the point.
I think the point I'm trying to make is that your vaping will evolve just as anything you do will. You will want better newer and different. Look for what will satisfy your need now if that means that you must have the form factor of a cigar than so be it.
Andrew already replied, said he'd throw a few tips in for me Also said "yes i got juices just ran outta bottles, got few flavors left at 18mg i'll still add juice." But not what kind. Can't wait to get this thing and stopping destroying my teeth and gums!
Also said "yes i got juices just ran outta bottles, got few flavors left at 18mg i'll still add juice." But not what kind. Can't wait to get this thing and stopping destroying my teeth and gums!I tracked it anxiously and it arrived! I'm a bit overwhelmed. I seem to have two batteries, a wall charger, and a PV case end for the battery. Check. I have the switch, connected to the battery. Check. Now the confusion. I got two atomizers, 5 atomizer cartridges, 5 cartomizers, a bottle of flavor ("Black-n-Mild" - I like!), and two drip tips. Now I am experimenting with how to combine everything. I tried putting an atomizer on, popping off the empty (totally empy, no cotton or anything) cartirdige, opening a new cartridge (touched it an confirmed the cotton was wet), screwing it onto the atomizer and taking a puff. I got a nice puff but a distinct burning taste and it hurt my lungs a little.
Next thing I tried: I dropped a few drops of the 30ml flavor jioce that came with it (Black-n-Mild) right onto the atomizer, then pput the drip tip into the atomizer and took a few puffs. Nice flavor, got a few solid hits. I'm hoping that was the correct way to test a flavor referred to in the forum thread.
Next on to the cartomizers, 1.7ohm "resurrectors," 5 of them. I'm *assuming* these are blank. So I watched a youtube vid and it said you pop off the back (the side going into your mouth) with a little pin to expose the cottton, then squirts around the edges with a syringe. I have no syringe. I just gently dapped around the edges, but within seconds liquid was dripping out the other end; I think I got some in the hole in the middle and wasn't supposed to. Then I thought to myself, is this where I am supposed to use the drip end? Plug it in in place of the rubber disk with the hole in it, and drip flavor throught it? And, am I then supposed to put the rubber disc back, or leave the drip tip in as a mouth piece? And, when filling the cartomizer, am I to disconnect it from the switch or leave it connected to it?
Thanks all! So far everything that came with the epower kit from CCV seems to be what I'm looking for now, I just need to figure out how to correctly use it and refill it and not burn anything. Can I refill the cartridges too? Looks easy enough to just drip my flavor onto the cotton.
TIA for the help and advice!

Glad to hear! I leave my drip tip in the cartomizer as a mouthpiece, but I do remove it when filling the cartomizer. You are correct, you don't want to get liquid into the tube that goes down the middle. It will leak, it won't vape right, and you will get liquid in your mouth. It will also leak if you overfill it. I just drip around the edges onto the poly fill as you described. Syringes make it easier, but they can also be more time than what it's worth. Sounds like you are doing it right. It's usually around 20 drops for a new standard cartomizer to be filled. I can't speak to the atomizer and cartridge set-up, I don't use them. Hope that helps some.
Here's what to do with the cartridges. Gather them all up in your left hand. Go to your kitchen and, with your right hand, open your trash can. Insert cartridges. I'll never understand why they insist on sending those things with kits. It's a plot by the Chinese to unload 4 trillion of them that they made before cartomizers rendered them instantly obsolete. We struggled with them a few years ago and abandoned them ASAP. I suggest you ditch them immediately.
Pretty close. What you want to do first is blow into the mouth end of the cartomizer to get rid of any primer or liquid that might be left in there from the factory. Then, attach it to your battery and drop about 3 drops in and let it soak a few minutes. Now it is "primed". Then, drip 3 more drops in there and vape. You can drip straight through your drip tip or do it with the drip tip off if you want to see exactly where the drops are going. Try to hit the center "bridge" and not let it run down the sides. If you flood it and it starts to leak, no worries. Just take it off and blow through the mouth end into a paper towel and start over.
What you'll be doing here is "dripping". Some people vape this way all the time. When the vapor gets thin or burnt tasting, drip a few more drops in. It'll take a little practice to know just how much to drip in and how often without flooding. You should get about 5-6 good hits from each 3 drops. Some attys will take 4 or 5 drops. It just depends, so experiment.
When you want to change flavors, you can just "vape through" the old one until the new flavor takes over. Depending on the strength of the old flavor, it might take more or less before the new one comes through. Some people also use "flavor erasers" or straight unflavored juice to clear an atomizer between flavors.
REmove any rubber disc or washer. Tilt the carto so that the drops are running down the edge into the filler. Avoid getting juice in the center tube or hole. Drip 3 to 5 drops at a time and let it soak in for 15-30 seconds, then do it again. The regular sized carto should hold 50-55 drops. The XL's should hole about 70-80 drops. When it is thoroughly soaked, it will look slushy on top. Before you vape it, blow any excess out from the mouthpiece end into a paper towel (paper towels are a vapers best friend). Put the drip tip in the end. Don't replace the washer or rubber endcap that came on the carto.
I prefer filling them using the "condom method". It's a lot faster and you don't need a syringe. There are a million vids on Youtube showing how to do it. Search for "Pbusardo condom".
As you use a carto, you will need to top it off periodically. Tilt it and add some drops when the vapor starts to thin out. Don't let it get so dry that the filler burns. Once you've burned the filler, the carto is ruined. It takes a little practice to know exactly when to top off. Better to top off too frequently than not enough. If you flood the carto, you can always blow out the excess. If you burn it, it's history.
Don't waste your juice on the cartridges. They're a nightmare and we used to replace that filler material with everything from steel wool to aquarium foam to Lipton pyramid teabags to make them work. Trust me. They're garbage. Dump them.
