Will have my first E-Cig today!

[TheRealJ]

Hey all,

I'm a new member to these forums and this is my first post. I have never used an E cig and I was turned onto them by an ad for BLU. After doing some research I decided to buy a JOYE 510 from litecigus . I'm hoping with this tool I can finally quit real cigs. I am so excited!

I also smoke herb so I'm familiar with the concept of vaping (volcano cape ftw)

Good job on chosing a good e-cig. I love my 510!

You may want to chill on the "herb" talk. I'm sure a lot of us use non-tobacco combustables but it's against forum policy to talk about it. Soooo just looking out for you! Welcome to the forum and good luck on kicking the cigarettes to the side.

Got mine yesterday, I'm in love!

 

[TheRealJ]

Whoop sorry about that... I just find the transition from smoking to vaping devices to be interesting, from a technological standpoint.

I'm a smoker all around, but to me this is very exciting! if I can vape cigs instead! must try it! I would love to switch to just vaping. Plus, being able to mix flavors and stuff! sweet!

Can't believe I just now heard about this, and from a shaky company's marketing campaign.

Welcome to ECF, Jaster! You made a great choice for your first model and you also chose a great vendor. Well done! Let us know how it goes.

 

[Col. Gaunt]

Welcome to the forum!

Sounds like you made a good choice, I hope you enjoy it!

 

[TheRealJ]

thanks all for the welcome, I did some research before I went ahead... It was between the 510 and the KR8.

 

[Jackal3]

Jaster I think you chose wisely. I love my KR808's, and got them from litecig also. Shawn is a great guy. The top two starter e-cigs are the 510 and KR808 (3 and 2 piece systems respectively). I will say be prepared for battery usage. Have backups ready and some on the charger.

Once you start vaping, you won't want to go back to tobacco. You'll see how much cleaner it is, how much better you'll feel within days, how much more energy you'll have. It's hard to think that the 4000 chemicals in tobacco cigarettes were dragging me down that much... for the last 23 years. I'm 43 and I feel like I'm in my mid 30's (after only 3 weeks).

Welcome to a great forum, too. Any questions, just browse or ask. Tons of folks here from all over online at any time of day to answer.

 

[TheRealJ]

Oh yes I have already discovered I have high battery usage.

But yes got my unit!! First hit was amazing... I'm not dissapointed at all, feels so much cleaner. Still will be hooked to nico but at least I won't be smoking!

I'm just getting use to filling these carts... how long they last... and one thing I didn't know is these blank and filled carts I ordered have an atomizer in them (!) I had no idea...

Is it one solid piece you screw into your battery or is it two pieces with the cartridge, cart for short, sliding on top of the atomizer? My guess is it's one piece, which is a cartomizer, carto for short.

Glad it's working for you.

 

[TheRealJ]

Yeah I got a bunch of cartoMIZERS! some reg 2 piece ones too.

Man this is gonna be a hobby, so many flavors to try...

I think that the 16mg is a little weak for me too, maybe not but this stuff tastes like a litel cig to me. Still searching for a good guide on how to properly fill these... I keep overfillin I think....

 

[Jackal3]

Take the bottom rubber piece (condom), the one without the inner plug, and fill it 1/3 the way with juice. Gently slide your empty cartomizer into the condom with the atomizer side down (the metal threaded end). Slowly, the juice will fill the inside and most of it will get sucked up like water to a sponge. Gently blow (from the top/mouth side) into the cartomizer to get out any in the center. Wipe the threaded metal atomizer end clean from any juice. Then use!

 

[Jackal3]

Also, when vaping a freshly filled carto, you'll notice it may not "vaporize" well. It will, just give it a few long, slow drags. When the cartomizer begins to warm up on your lips, it should be producing decent vapor by then.

When I vape on the KRs, I take long, slow sips from it, rather than smoking it like a regular tobacco cig. It ends up producing lots of vapor that way.

For the 510 carts I highly recommend kristin's straw/ptb cart mod. I've only been doing this 4 days myself and at 1st was frustrated by the poor performance of the stock poly fill that comes in the carts. Once I did the cart mod, everything changed for the better. Give it a try.

Thanks, I'll try it.

 

[TheRealJ]

Well, still been using my 510 daily with no need for analogs! Really great little devices, especially for people that want to quit traditional smoking, a great alternative!

 

[dormouse]

Cool! Have fun!!! It's very exciting to receive your first PV, as well as any subsequent ones but that first one is most exciting!

With a PV, drag the vapor into your mouth first, then inhale. it may be a bit harsh at first (especially if prefilled carts or 100% PG juice which can get a bit harsh on you tongue). Drink plenty of fluids and order some more juices.

if you have a manual battery then try pushing in the button first, then 1/2-1 second later start your drag, and before the end of your drag let up the button and finish dragging out the remaining vapor for 1-2 seconds.

Oh and with 510 try to line up the juice cup and the atty
