Newbie with some questions

[TODSHO]

Hello all..

I just signed up on the site after finding alot of usefull info on here...but i still have a couple of questions that someone may be able to answer.
I just started vapeing a couple of weeks ago and did alot of research on e-liquids, e-cig mods, etc. Just started filling my own carts and still learning the tricks and such.
One of my questions is..what is best to use for thinning of e-liquid?
Also..most e-cigs claim that one cart is equal to 1 or more packs of analog cigs...do they mean nicotine content? Cause theres no way i've been getting 300 or so hits off of one cart...unless someone knows a secrete that i dont...if you do..please let me know! It would be nice to get 300 hits from one cart..i know its just not possible...so what do they actually mean?
Thanx for any info...tod

the 1 pack = 1 cartridge thing is pretty widely considered as bs. just some false advertising. the people i bought from actually dared say 1 cart = 2 packs. HAH. however, a cart does last me pretty long as long as i am not puffing the thing every 30 mins or so.

as for your liquid cutting question, i'm not sure.

300 hits on one Carts? i think Catomizers or the new eGo t should be able to do that.

It is just some advert to attract attention to u and others.

Maybe a 300 hits mean u slip in bit by bit like drinking hot coffee

When you say thinning e-liquid do you actually mean thinning or reducing the Nic content? If you do mean thinning the solution try diluting with about 5% vodka and it will thin the solution and make it more runny, if you wish to reduce the nic content you can do this by adding VG or PG in base form to the liquid you have. there are many tables on the net that will give you a formular in drops or mls for the right ratio. Hope this helps. Also you may like to have a go with one of the E2 R4 carts they hold a fair amount of liquid although not a full packets worth.
Have fun.

It also depends on how u press that Button and vape in how deep.
I seen people vaping like Drink water. 1 bottle of 10 ml can finish in 3 days.

I think the trick they use is that a cart will last for one pack, Not the juice in it.

As for carto's, I go through about 3-4 fills a day on the regular size ones. I'm looking into the XL's for less filling and more vaping.

Don't get hung up on the cart per smokes issue. carts usually hold about 6 drops and should be filled when vapor and flavor diminish. If you are talking cartomizers then the initial fill will be about 20-25 drops. A juice at 80%pg/20%vg should not need thinning. If you have a high VG juice and need to thin then use PGA. A few drops goes a long way so add, shake, test and repeat untill you find the viscosity you are looking for. If you can noty buy PGA in Ohio then a high proof vodka will work

The reason i'm asking is i just ordered some double flavor ry4 and when i ordered it there was a note saying " double flavor may need thinning". Just need to know what to thin it with if i have to.

I think that is if you find the flavour too strong you will need to cut it down by adding more PG or VG. (VG gives more vapour than PG but may add some sweetness to the taste) Some liquids are a mixture of both when you get them. just play around till you find what you like. Also Some people (very few) have alergy problems with PG if so change to VG and problem solved. I prefer all VG liquid but like walking round in a fog.

I agree with the fog....i like alot of fog..lol
