Taking the plunge...please help me choose a unit

...Can the blank cartomizers be refilled with the same flavor of e-juice, or do they need to be tossed after one use? Also, I refrigerated my e-juice to preserve it's freshness....

Hi Scarlet, congrats on starting your vaping journey...it's gonna be fun!

Regarding lifespan and refilling of cartos, Buzzy gave a good capsule summary, and the particulars and quirks of each brand is part of the learning curve.

I believe the current concensus regarding refrigerating your juices is to not refrigerate but leave in a cool, dark environment. Many juices actually mellow and improve their flavor with age.

Happy vaping to you!

The kr808d-1 was my first 'real' e-cig, and after the learning curve, it is very easy to use. If you're as picky as I am, it's easy to keep a single carto goin for well over a week. I can proudly say I had one last almost 3 weeks... it just stopped working one day. eh. Anyway, I've found the trick to keeping the cartos alive for longer is in keeping it topped off. After taking about 3-4 good puffs, put a drop or two back in. Be sure to vape it down every now and then, but try not to burn the filler too badly

Also, keep one of the rubber carto-condoms and pop it on the carto end so lint or whatever won't get into it while in your pocket. If you have a manual battery or the newer auto battery, just pop that condom on the LED end and vape away. The older autos would activate with that on top...

I've upgraded to a 501, but I keep my 808's charged and ready for action. In my honest opinion, the 808's are right up there in every respect except for dripping. You can buy an atomizer for a 901 and drip but it's nowhere near the same.

go with revolver, you won't regret it. I tried a Blu and Volcano before I found revolver is the best product on the market.

Here's my 2 cents. Just received my first electronic cig from Deal Extreme yesterday. I was out smokin' when a guy I work with came out with an e-cig. I had heard about them and said I would like to try it out, but don't wanna kick out 60-100 bucks just to see. He showed me his and said the one he bought was only 10 bucks, but took a couple of weeks to arrive. I figured I could blow that so I ordered one. It is the one with the black case and I think it's called e-health cigarettes (or something, left the case at my friends house). FYI, there are at least 3 different 'packages' you can order. Mine was just a black plastic case with 6 cartridges, but it has a built in USB charger in the pack- pretty cool. I would however, suggest getting the one that has the wall charger and some other goodies with the case for around $14 - that way, you get a usb charger and some extra cables for dirt cheap. I'd recommend trying something like this, because it's so cheap and you can see if you like it. So far, in 1 day and a half, I've probably smoked 5 cigarettes less than I would have, so if this thing lasts me a week it's already paid for itself. Just wish I'd have gotten the pack with the charger, really could use that charger..... Oh, and if you care, that one has a red LED on it instead of the blue one on mine.....
