Okay, I'll be the first to admit that I don't understand some of these postings
I've been out of commission for the past couple of days because of some strange stabbing eye headaches for the past couple of days...first one eye, then the next night the other eye. No idea what that's all about.
As I said earlier, I'm not your typical ecig user. I'm still smoking analogs because of my inability to make them work for meI'm on low nic and still cough up a lung on each and every "hit" if I inhale. I have done every kind of "inhale" suggested. Right now, it's a short hit and just hold it in my mouth and exhale....which turns it into a catch-22. Low nic, no inhale equals needing an analog...bummer.
Anyway, that being said, I LOVE the PB. It's beautiful! It feels good, and the carts that came with them work for me...the way I use them.
I've had zero problem with threading issues. Then again, I've only used one of the five I ordered. I haven't paid any attention at all to what the charger is doing because apparently everyone has a different experience.
When I got it, we briefly put it on the charger. When I read that it was fully charged we pulled it off and I started with it. I did not count "hits" because I didn't know if that would be a fair evaluation.
Now it's been fully charged and apparently I got a lot more hits than others because of the way I vape. I take only small hits, hold it in my mouth, and exhale through my nose/mouth because of my inability to totally inhale it.
The charge I'm currently on, I've had more than 180 hits off of...and considering I may have missed a few, possibly 190+ It's not dead yet, but seems as though it's slowing down. The next time I recharge I will probably do a cart change too....although for now it seems just as good as when I first screwed it on...with no problems.
To Bill and LK, I cannot thank you enough for the gift. It's the only "bling" I have and it's beautiful!
To LK's question as to whether I would pay for it, I'm not sure if you've said how much it would be? We are on fixed income, so it would depend upon that, but yes, indeed, I would pay for this bling!
Hubby (bigblue30) did remove a silicone ring and the "filter" which he said was soaked and probably causing it to not hit as easily, but I just love what I've got and I have no complaints.
For those of you removing the filter material, do you find it is dry or wet?
Again, thank you. I've been blessed to be part of this review and receipt of this gorgeous PB
Contrary to popular oppinion, the majority of vapor nic is absorbed in the mouth, rather than the lungs because of the fact that the mouth is wet, and the lungs are not(shouldn't be). Glycerin/PG are humectants, and there for absorb redily into water. With a cigarette, the tar is the primary nic transfere component, and the lungs absorb most of the nic as a result. If you can't inhale vapor, the best thing to do would be to go w/ the highest level nic you can tolerate, and just do mouth hits, nose exhale. The offactory will collect some nic also.
And the filter on the three I have inspected was wet(overfilling issue), if yours is wet(getting juice in mouth0, I believe LK would like the build number from the carto.
