Some Nembie Questions

[Legion242]

Hi all,
I ordered a Joyetch 510 starter kit yesterday and am expecting it tomorrow (local shipping). I have a few questions:
It says I am getting 5 pre-filled carts. What are they likely to be filled with?
Says it comes with and atty. What's the difference between carts and attys?
And what makes "manual" batteries "manual"?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
Looking forward to being smoke-free soon!!

filled with ejuice
cart fits into the atty
manual battery has a button you push to activate the atty

Thanks.
Another dumb question.
Are the carts then reusable with the juices that I bought, or do I need "blank" carts?

And what would an "automatic" battery mean?

 

[OgreLokon]

Probably a Dekang Tobacco flavor, at 18mg nic strength.
The atty vaporizes the juice, the cart holds and dispenses the juice into the atty.

Yes they're reusable. If the flavors are too different, you may want to clean the cart's fiber material.

Carts are reusable. You can clean them and use your own juice.

Auto batteries mean you do not need to press the button to vape. I never used one before, but I heard manual are better. I think they said on the auto batteries, there's a hole. And if your not too careful and flood the atomizer with e juice, you might kill the auto batteries. The atomizer screw onto the battery. So the juice will just go into the battery hole if your not careful.

Buy some ejuice now if you didn't order any!!! A cartridge aka cart does not hold much eliquid. You add eliquid to it whenever it starts making vapor less well. You could go through 5 carts in one day without ejuice.
Some good ejuices vendors
Backwoods Brew (70pg/30vg)
FreedomSmokeUSA (I choose 70pg/30vg when offered)
Velvet Vapors (I like their Velvet Blend PG/VG)

Manual batteries are recommended and used by most people here. Less work, more consistent drags, more sealed against death-by-juice-leak, and won't turn on by accident from wind or vibration. It makes vapor while the button is press. But for the best drags you shift your press and release a bit earlier in time than your drag. Press in... 1/2 to 1 second later start dragging.... let up.. then finish your drag

3 piece ecigarette: battery + atomizer + cartridge (aka cart)

You can also use a 510 as 2-piece with a cartomizer (a cart with a built in atomizer which should last for about a week of refilling): battery + cartomizer. A cartomizer holds more juice and you can vape longer without adding juice.
Blanks

Some prefilled ones

Yeah, I ordered 3 bottles of juice.
After a lot of reading, it sounds like an Ego might have been better for me.
I'll get started with the 510 and then see where I end up.
I'm most worried about battery life.

The attys are at least compatible, so all you'd really need is the ego batts and charger. Of course, it would most likely be cheaper to buy an entire kit, but knowing what's compatible is good so you know your options.

 

[Legion242]

Just got it in the mail!!
So, another probably dumb question:
It came packed with a flared inhalation piece, similiar to those things they used to sell to put on your cigs. What is that? I put the cart on and that seems to be what you vape through, right?

Also, I have the 5 pre-filled carts of unknown flavour (tastes like very generic tobacco). I assume I have to use them up before I can add my own juices? Right?

I have the 510 and am pondering the eGo kit for the longer battery life as well.
