Hello. Hope this post is appropriate for this category but I didn't see an NPro link. First time posting here so I'll give a short intro. I'm 25 and live in New Jersey, America. I've been smoking for five years. I usually smoke lights or full flavour nonmentholated cigarettes and prefer additive free, though I also enjoy Asos and George Karelias and Sons when I can get them. I'm a light smoker, four cigarettes in one day at the most and usually less. For me, it's not about the nicotine, which is probably why I can stop and start whenever. I enjoy the taste of good tobacco and smoking in general.
Anyway, I was curious about e-cigs so I bought an NPro, since I heard such good things about it. I've been totally blind since I was two-months-old, so the smoke did nothing for me but the taste was interesting. It took some getting used to. The trick was to think "this is not tobacco so it won't taste like it". So once I saw it as a new smoking experience I was fine. I only smoked it for maybe a week, using the 0-nicotine cartridges. Then, I forgot about it and got sick so didn't smoke anything for about a week and a half. When I returned to it, the taste was harsh and made my throat dry. This happened before but I was learning to live with it. But now, it was severe. It continued even after I changed the cartridge. I wasn't sure how long you can keep one open so I threw the old one out. Today, when I opened the ziplock bag where I keep the NPro, the cigarette and bag were wet so apparently, some of the sollution leaked out through the hole in the cartridge. I washed my hands but am unsure how to clean the cigarette or the atomiser with or without sighted assistance. Also, when I puff on it , it makes a buzzing sound like there's liquid in it, as if saliva got in there but I'm sure it's the sollution.
So how do I resolve these issues? Is that dry/harsh taste normal or is it dangerous to smoke it now? Should I buy a new atomiser? Thanks.
