I find it very eratic. Sometimes it's a real good hit with good vape. Then all the sudden it dies down to nothing.

First question: Somebody suggested that it is due to me using the prefilled carts. If I topped off the juice consistantly, I would get much better results.

Advice? Comments?

2) I'm still vaping with the Safecig that I started with. Not the exact flavor or TH that I want. But, it's consistant. But, I don't see much on this forum about safecig. Others thoughts/experiences?

3) I've seen plenty of warnings about the mall kiosks here. But, ran into one that was called "Smoke Free". Vape and TH was very good! A bit expensive though. Any oppinions on this one????

Thanks!!!

I always found carts + filler (or even cartos) to be less than consistent but I have no patience (lol) and went to dripping because it was easier. Sometimes with carts the filler wiggles a bit too far down so the juice sn't wicing up as it should (the bridge of the atty should make a little 'nest' or dent in the top of the filler); if its moved down too far wiggle it back up with a toothpick. The bridge needs to stay 'wet', if it dries out your vaping will be much harsher and acrid - you can drip a drop or two directly onto the atty bridge.
If you add juice to a prefilled (ie not blank) cart rememebr to use said toothpick to get any air out of the cart - jsut slide it down one side of the filler and push it slightly away from the cart side. You might be able to get more juice in now as well.
I havent heard of safecig btw but I havent heard of a lot of models so taht doesn't mean anything lol
Bottom line for ALL PV is that if YOu are happy with it then it doesn't matter if its popular or not - your only issue will be getting spares for it as you may be tied to the one company.

That was what happened to my 510 so I soaked my atty over night in some pure grain alcohol and it helped considerably, but I never got much vapor or TH from the pre-filled carts that came with mine so I've been topping them off with extra e-juice. How many drops do you use in your drip tips and and how long does it usually last? What about cartomizers any thoughts on those?
