Questions about cartomizer/clearomizer/glassomizer

[Eskie]

Then they called them "APV's"

Now, everything is called a mod.

LOL

And here I thought APV was some sort of off road vehicle.

Thx a lot

Holy cow.......My Chinese lung could not sustain that amount of nicotine. I just vape 6mg LOL

I used 18mg/ml in my 1st e-Cigarette to try to Quit. It Didn't Work.

So I tried 28mg/ml. Better. But I couldn't get over the Hump. And Couldn't Beat Down the Cravings when they got Bad.

So I got some 36mg/ml and filled a Carto with it. I kept it in a Little Altoids Tin. I called it my "Break Glass in Case of Emergency" Cart. And when the Cravings got Bad, and I was about ready to go buy a Pack of Smokes to just have One, I would pull out the 36mg/ml Carto and chain Vape until the Crisis Passed.

But that was in Late 2009/Early 2010. And the Hardware of that Era didn't perform Anywhere Near what Hardware does today.

If I tried using 36mg/ml on what I use today, I would probably Throw Up. And have a Headache for the Rest of the Day.

Thx a lot , really help me a lot. Totally agree that the process of learning is a big part fun of E-cig. However, I still have one more question:If my atomizer uses a organic cotton wick or a ppl wick, can I simply categorize it as cartomizer? And glasso and clearo only use silica wick?

Here's the definition found on Learn About Vaping Here - Everything Ecigs - From Beginner To Advanced
A cartomizer is a device that contains a cotton or cotton-like filament within the tank that absorbs the e-liquid. The liquid is then fed to the coils through this material and evaporates when heated by the battery.

A clearomizer, on the other hand, does not possess any such filament. Rather, the coils used with clearomizers have wicks attached to them. These wicks then absorb the e-liquid and feed it to the atomizer coils. Clearomizers also have large plastic e-liquid reservoirs that can hold various volumes of e-liquid.

Glassomizers, The sole distinction between a clearomizer and a glassomizer is that the e-liquid reservoir of clearomizers is made of plastic, while that of a glassomizer is made of Pyrex glass.

That's a pretty good link to give beginner s over in the newcomers forum. Ty

Well, as you know, most e-cig are made here, however, people living here are not fully accepted. The common cig are still popular. On the other hand, the government still doesn't take out any laws or regulations on e-cig for complicated reasons, it's another important reason why it's not popular yet. Maybe the eGo for cig alternative is the mainstream.

I can gradually get used to 6mg. Hopefully, it won't rise up to 36mg.
