I am asking for a little help being that I have already invested in 2 kits from Greensmoke, we have been disappointed of course because flavor is completely NOTHING, we even purchased some 3rd party juice to add to the cartridges and for the first hit we had some flavor but then nothing. Is this because of the Greensmoke e-cig or is this just the nature of the e-cig? Any help would be appreciated because we loved the idea of just quitting the analogs, and we still think this could work for us because we keep reading that people are enjoying the e-cig and we are wondering if we are not just because of the model we chose? Any serious help would greatly be appreciated.

Doots, thanks for the quick response, I have been smoking analog Marlboro Reds and Basic Full Flavor for over 15 yrs and as I knew these would be very different, I am taking that something is wrong because everyone would not be having such success as I am reading if there was no flavor and just the taste of PG or VG coming out of the unit. Ive tried as few as loading 4-5 drops into the cartomizer to the point of one just flooding it to get anything.

Hey Tfury

Be sure for one thing that your batteries are fully charged. Ive heard varying results from ppl using cartomizers, Ive never used them. I use 3 pc mods with much larger battery capacity. Vape much like analogs.

There is a difference for sure between analogs and ecigs but ecigs are very satisfying if you have the right set up. Again Im not familiar with greencigs cartos.

You might PM Drew at nhaler.com or send an email from his site and ask him what you need to do to get this to work for you..

good success!!!

Hi tfury, I use carts and although I have 2 different brands than you do they should work the same.
A couple of points to consider the nic level gives you the throat hit (higher nic mg =stronger TH). Don't flood your atty, it needs to heat up the e-juice and turn it into vapor for you to inhale. An e-cig needs a different draw than your analogs, slower and lighter.

It is hard to find a flavor e-juice that tastes exactly like the analogs your use to. Don't limit your juice to tobacco only try mixing a flavor with a tobacco flavor.

Look for videos on youtube that show the basic use and set up of your model and similar ones to make sure your set up ok.

The first model I bought came with different strengths of a basic tobacco flavor it didn't taste like an analog it tastes good but different. I smoked 40-60 camel lights and the wife smoked Basic light 100's 20 per day she liked the standard cart taste. I switched to flavors, like vanilla, orange and mixed my carts half marlboro/vanilla or half vanilla/orange and every so often I'll use a straight tobacco flavor.

Good luck

Hey tfury - I started out with a Red Dragon, which I understand is exactly the same e-cig as the greensmoke. And I had the same experience. No throat hit, no FLAVOR. At all. I found I was trying to fool myself into thinking I could taste something. But i wasn't.

1 week into it, I ordered a 510. It gives much better flavor, and a good throat hit too. Feels just like an analog when I get a good hit. But dang, it's a finicky device that takes a lot of babysitting. Seems like I'm always having to drip a little on the atomizer to keep from getting harsh tasting hits.

But still, all the babysitting is worth it for me, because it's close enough to an analog that so far, I haven't been missing tobacco at all. But maybe I speak too soon. I've only been vaping for 2 weeks, and finished my last analog 3 days ago...

First I used NJoy and was not satisfied. Then I used 510 for several months. 510 works great with flavor, throat hit and vapor. it is the one that is highly recomdented by most of the people on this foruml

Just recently I go a Litte Chuck. This has consident troat hit, alots of vapor. It does use a bit moe fluid. I love the Little Chuck.

A good tobacco flavoring is hard to fine, I have tried Marlboro, Camel. State Extess. 555 and I have mixed several other tobacco flavors. Recently I started mixing flavor like vanialla caramal. These have turned out pretty good.

Most of the tobacco eliquid does not have the right flavor we are looking for. I use tobaccp amd add other some of the other flavors out there.

I too am using a 510 and I ordered a chuck.(haven't gotten it yet) I always add a drop or two of a tobacco flavor to my carts when filling up on a flavor you get a hint of tobacco with your current choice. 510 for me is the way to go with a manual battery. IMHO
