As I mentioned in my intro, I started with "A Better Healthy Way" brand. The starter kit was a gift from my wife. I quickly found they did not deliver a good dose of nicotine. I searched around and saw some sites that rated various e-cigs. Green Smoke seemed like a good bet, so I started using them. A little pricey, and I found the batteries varied in the delivery, but all-in-all they worked pretty well.
The cartomizers are one use disposable type. But, what I liked about them was that I found you could snap the white plug off the end of the cartomizer, pull the little soft plastic stopper from the unside and refill them with a stronger e-liquid drip, then replace the soft stopper and white plug on the end. The internal atomizer would last another four or five refills from dripping in about eight drops of e-liquid each time it ran dry.
Well, apparently the figured out folks were doing this and made adjustments. The white plug on the end of the cartomizer is now deeper into the cartomizer and glued in. Very hard to remove. It breaks up as you try to pry it out. Also they seem to have reduced the endurance of the internal atomizer, because it would only last for one drip in refill. Bastids!
Anyone else refilling and found the suppliers are getting crafty in preventing refills?
