Here, there, everywhere!
Wow!! Can you put four USB chargers on this at once and charge 4 batteries? Does it plug into the wall?

Yep - seven actually if you can fit three more on the side (I use that for my Ego cable)

Happy Friday everyone. :)

You too!

Happy Friday! :)

Drinking coffee and vaping blueberry cheescake. Ummm. Can't get much happier than this. lol

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM............................

Isn't it great to quit smoking and not gain weight? I am having chocolate with my coffee right now and there are no calories. Hah

Never quit smoking to know:)

I'm with you, Laura. I love snow.

It's very simple, or at least it can be.
If you use a full Volt cartomizer on a Volt battery with Volt brand juice you can expect not to have to top off longer than the length of the battery charge. The system is pure simplicity unless we choose to complicate it by changing any part of the equation. I usually use a fresh carto on a fully charged battery and top them off at night when I charge my batteries. The people who have told you this are probably not using the Volt system, or at least all of it. There are many different types and brands of cartos. Different ohms, vertical coils, dual coils etc., and many different types of juices. Pg/Vg content, flavorings etc. Some are using different juices at higher voltages etc. and painting all carto use with the same brush. I sometimes use juices with a higher vg content and it shortens my carto life. I also have put the cartos on hotter batteries using an adaptor and it uses more juice. ECF as a whole is a wealth of knowledge and information but unfortunatley the new members section is getting full of misinformation as well. Often by well meaning members who use advanced mods and such and haven't kept up with the rapidly advancing technology on this style of pv. They sometimes completley ignore the needs the newcommer expresses, like cig size, and recommend the larger styles, fillerless cartos, low resistance cartos, etc., that require more fiddling with. Rolygate, forum manager, said it best. 510s are for people who like to fiddle with things, 808s are for those who don't. If you're just trying to keep it simple and make a smoother transition to ecigs 808 is the way to go. It ain't no hobby. Later if some of the other stuff starts looking attractive you can always break out your credit card and go for it but the satisfaction of the vapor stays pretty much the same. Usually just a bigger cloud of it or hotter. It can indeed be a fun hobby but I believe you posted earlier that you sent one of the recommended larger pvs back? If not I apologize, I've got you mixed up with someone else. If so....case and point. You're more likely to find accurate information about using the Volt on this thread from the people who use them and have the experience and knowledge of the product. Only one of us is a SI rep. The rest of us are just satisfied user/customers. Plenty of excellent general knowledge almost anywhere on the forum. Hope the mailman comes to see you soon. I can't wait to see how you like it.

Here bloody here!!! /claps!! I'm so sick of watching the newbies asking for advice on what's the best small no fuss ECig and everyone starts telling this person they don't even know what's best for them and the bigger the better etc. I'm one who followed the advice and 3mths here I am twiddling my thumbs waiting for something I was looking for from the beginning to finally get here :/

Wow what a day of pier fishing did i have today. Got to finally take some wonderful photo's with the new camera and will link them here for you all to see in the next week or so.
I read this today but really didnt have the time to post it
So I ordered quite a nice starter set up last night from Volt. Starter kit pro with an extra usb charger and and extra battery, 2 lots of cartomizers a nice case etc... I spent around $120 and then opted for the express post which was around $40. I am wondering a few things since this investment is probably a total switch from what I have been using the past 3 months which were all 510 and Ego units. My problem with the510's hasnt been the batteries too much but finding good consistant cartomizers. How long does postage take when using the most expensive shipping option to Aust?

Megabee

I used the express shipping once and it took about two weeks to melb
Usually i just get the least expensive and get it in about 19days
i keep anywhere from 4-10 packets on hand and usually do once a month order unless there's an awesome sale.
I can usually get a good week out of a carto sometimes longer, sometimes not , it really depends on the juice i am using.
I found fsusa juices to lose quite a lot of flavour and the carto's not lasting as long for me ( all my fsusa at the time were 50/50) i have since found that more than 40vg mix in juices gives me blotchy red skin & breathing problems so now i only use si & kbv juice In higher pg mixes.

All in all today i used three batts and three carto's & the tank ,the 18mg ry4 juice that came in was the all day vape and used it it the teeny tank that Tgirl made for me, was a blast not having to fight the pilot lighter blowout with all that wind. Also the throat hit on the vanilla 24mg was like a kick in the head. Reaaly good to have on hand. This past week has seen me a bit xtra nervous and being on 12mg somethings have been a slight miss to the neuro paths, so now i've some 18mg & 24mg to handle those( ie. they are not cravings just need a bit of ommpff from time to time). Now goingto catch some zzzz's been up for 18hrs and about to crash. Happy good day to you all

Awesome another Aussie volt customer I was hoping there were some!! Thanks for your reply. For the sake of waiting a few more days I don't think I will use that shipping method again then. I ordered 2 packets initially and then put another order in later for 5 packets of cartomizers. I'm a bit disappointed my FSUSA juices might not be that great in them though as I have a LOT of FSUSA juices and more coming. Oh well I guess I will try it out and slowly move over to SI juices as well although I am not sure I will find all day vapes I will like with them. Thanks for jumping in with your experience much appreciated

Isn't it great to quit smoking and not gain weight? I am having chocolate with my coffee right now and there are no calories. Hah

I'm one of the unfortunates that gained weight :( My eating habits didn't change one bit, but right when I started vaping is when the pounds started to creep on. It totally sucks. Everything I read about weight gain from quitting smoking only talks about nicotine being an appetite suppressant and affects metabolism. Or people replacing their oral fixation with a cookie. But since I didn't give up nicotine or the act of smoking, there must be something else in cigarettes that kept my weight in check. I wonder how many calories are in 555 juice.

I use FSUSA (80/20 pre-mix) with no problems, but the 50/50 does shorten the live of my cartos. For the first fill (with 50/50) I use the "condom fill" method and then let them sit a day or two, or it they just don't wick well.

You're not alone. I've gained 15lbs or better since I started vaping.:( I blame it on food tasting better. Hopefully that novelty will wear off soon.

Hummm...wonder why? I stopped eating sugar (I have always had a huge sweet tooth) and animal fat in order to lower my cholesterol and lost 40 lbs. I didn't set out to lose, but that was a by product of the change in diet. I eat a lot of whole grain, which keeps you full a looong time.

Me too! I think there is something in analogs different than nic that prevents us from gaining weight! I also didn't change my eating habits but it's true I smell better now and everything tastes great!

Ha, I already have one of those! :)

got it from MicroCenter locally for $12.99.

Loved it! But we don't have MicroCenter here :grr: Can you please post the web page of that? Do you happen to know if they ship internationally?

I added a drop of Vodka in my newly filled cartos the other day and it helped immensely (I had already filled them before I thought about it) since I added 3 drops to my 10 ml bottle of juice.
