Newbie looking for advice with Fin cigs

[ercin13]

Hello to all. Love this site. I have been browsing over all the wonderful info here. I must say that i am overwhelmed a bit though. I never knew there were so many options in the ecig world. The wife and i have been on fin ecigs for about 3 months now. We both smoked cigarettes for over 20 years. With the help of fin cigs, we made the transition with no problems at all.

Buy Electronic Cigarettes Online | FIN E-Cigarettes

I purchased a large amount of cartridge refills when they had a sale and now the supply has run out , so i am trying to find out if there is a cheaper way to go with the refills. We have 4 full setups of fin cigs(charger,battery,atomizer). Right now the boxes of refills cost $20 which includes 25. I use one a day and the wife uses 1 1/2 a day.

• Each refill contains 400 mg of e-liquid
• 1.6% nicotine by volume equals 6.4 mg of nicotine in each refill

We like the style and taste of these type. Is there any other type of cartridges i can use with my battery and atomizer that would be more economical? Or could i use the liquid in blank cartridges from another company? I am definitely going to experiment with some new things i have seen here. For the time being we would like to stick with what we got because of the investment in our equipment , just want to find an alternative to the refills. Any help or suggestions would be great.

your in luck the info I can find says this battery is a standard 510 threading, which means there is a million options for this type, you can buy prefilled carts which cost the most but MANY companies sell them.

if the endcap on the ones you have come off you can simple order more juice from them or from any of the venders if they make something you like and refill the ones you have until they wear out(they dont want you to know that so you keep buying more) i have refilled these types of cart and had some last weeks before burning out.

or you can start to look for any of the other wonderful accessories that would screw onto these, you can even find those same threaded batteries in larger sizes and keep the acc's you have now.

just to be sure is this a 3 piece design or a 2 piece design for the cartridge? (batt,atomizer cart) vs (battery, cart) if it is the older 3 piece design i would say buy some new blank carts in the newer 2 piece design and fill them yourself as the 3 piece design is outdated and newer blanks are cheap and last a long time.

There are two types of 510.
One is thick and one is thin threaded.
I have both.
I am guessing that these are the thick threads which would mean that no other 510 accessories would work.

Thanks, that sounds great. I believe i want to try the juice method. The carts i have just slip onto the atomizer, i don't believe the end comes off. A new cartridge has a foil seal that the atomizer pierces through to open, then it looks like there is a cotton pack. Do i just use the old carts and refill them with juice or do i need to buy blanks? Any suggestions on a vendor?

Best bet to buy a pack of Boge cartomizers.

all of the reviewers of this product have stated:
"On to the actual e-cigarette. 306′s are fully 510 compatible (the battery is your basic 510 auto variety). so i would assume its a standard 510, dunno as this is the first i have ever even heard of it lol.

I just ordered a 5 pk of boge's and a couple bottles of juice. What is the lifespan of 1 boge? Should i use 1 flavor per each cart?

 

[Titanium]

Your choice.
I find a pack of Boges lasts me a month.
I don't vape TOO much though.

 

[ercin13]

Thanks again. I will update when i get my products.

Another topic i forgot to ask is about the nicotine levels. The cartridges i am currently using say 1.6% nicotine by volume = 6.4mg in each refill. I ordered 18mg in the juice , was that too much? I wasn't sure if the nicotine levels were the same in the cartridges and the juice. I probably screwed up.

the juice conversion is (cant remember off hand) i think in this case its 1.8 mg per ml of base carrier. so you were actually smoking something like 16. its actually best to have a few dif lvls around. lower like at night when its time to wind down, higher when the normal vap isnt cutting the sudden urges.

Okay cool. I just checked my order it was 16mg.

oh yea it would prolly be best to keep it one flav per cart, but if there close you can mix it youll notice a little of the old, a strange mix, then the new flavor, after a few puffs sometimes you find two that go great together this way lol
