Super-Mini and topping up...

[nicewon]

Having used the 901 for about a week, I've just received my brand new super mini from Smokester .. first impressions, not bad.

Quick question - is topping up with ejuice the same for the mini as it is with the 901? i.e. a few drops on the "spongey" part??? If so, I'll need a good aim!8-o

Cheers!

personally, don't even bother with cartridges. Drip 2 drops of liquid straight on the atomizer, and you'll get a good 12-14 puffs (just about equiv. to a standard tobacco cig)

agreed, the super mini carts are worthless

Will give it a go - will probably burn the lips off myself!

Spam, spam, spam, spam ...

Read the suppliers rules please.

suppliers should be banned from posting in the new members forum ....period.....

back to topic.

I find with my super mini that it's darn hard to pull the mouthpiece off without damaging it.

What i did last nite was get over friendly with the supermini atomizer and smear a little vasaline on it so the mouth piece was easier to pull off.

man ..that sounds sooo wrong in so many ways...

helpful advice should aways be welcome as long as it is not spammy in nature.

The whole spam thing has gone over my head
... but it has made me hungry!

Tried dripping the juice straight onto the cartridge - nice hit

Just wondering if you can top up the carts too? Or would the sponge not hold it (doesn't seem to be much there), and the last thing I want is a gob full of French Pipe.... (hmmm... maybe, I do )

 

[ApOsTle51]

ahh , it was a pesky supplier posting about "try my e-cig , it de best" type post...been deleted now so nvm.

You can top off the carts, that's what i do on the odd occasion i use the super. I also find it the super-mini is problematic with juice in the mouth though but that's a design issue because the cart, atomizer and your lips are all very close to each other.

Out of interest , if you already own a 901 , what made you go for the super-mini ?

I find the my dse103 cartridges task of plastic. Makes me feel sick after a while.

Apostle - thanks for the info., will try topping up the cart to see how it goes.

I'm vaping on the 901 as I type... I think it's fantastic. The only reason why I bought the super mini was because I feel a bit odd smoking it in public... a little bit too big (and the blue led doesn't help either!).

I thought the super mini would be a good compromise... have a quick vape at break, in the pub, etc, etc... then hit the 901 hard when I get home.

After a week smoking the 901, I have smoked zero real cigs in the evening time... but have smoked a few during the day (whilst at work).

This is my plan to banish the dreaded weed.

Plan b is to "grow a set" and smoke the 901 in public (albeit with a red led)

Next on the shopping list is one of those big ... cigars

I also found many super mini mouthpieces hard to remove. When I find one that slides on easily I keep it and just change the cart. About 1 in 5 seems to go on easier.

 

[ApOsTle51]

just for your info , using the super-mini in a pub will no doubt cause you grief , because the fact is it looks too much like a real ciggie, and will confuse other patrons into thinking it's ok to spark up. but in the end i guess it's down to the landlords discretion.

Most pubs will allow the use of the black 901 with a blue LED because it doesn't resemble a real cigarette.

Management reserves the right and all that

I just give the long brown cover ( The Mouth Piece ) a few tap's on my table to bring the cart up the mouth peice, then i drip in no more than 3 drops into the cart, but i also drip 2 drops into the automizer to stop it from over heating and burning out ....I almost always drip the automizer after the carts and never put my e-cig in my pocket with the led pointing downwards as the liquied will leak into the battery and kill it...If you follow a few simple rules the super mini is not a bad smoke indeed ....Hope this helps.... PS....Mine is still going after 3 months ...but i have 2 ecigs and swap between them, but evan though 3 months is not bad going.

 

[e-pipeman]

e-cigs work well in the pub as long as you ask for permission before you start vaping all over the shop. Once you have permission then it doesn't matter what colour it is imho. It's just basic courtesy really - and you'll find that the curiosity of bar staff and punters helps.

 

[KatyS]

Apostle your right about pubs that ban smoking. You don't want your cig to look like a cig. But here in USA there are still quite a few states that allow designated smoking in their bars. I like to take my super mini sometimes when I'm out with friends because it does look like an analog and therefore lots less attention and explanations about what it is.

thanks rustylug - the first thing I did notice is the atomiser on the super-mini gets hot, very quickly.
