WOW I have been allowed to post!! My refills only last about 6 hours

[janscot]

Anyone got a suggestion how to get more than 6 hours per cartridge or capsule refill? I am buying a lot of refills. As a new person to e.cigs I would be grateful for some advice. I charge my battery regularly and clean everythin as advised, but not getting many puffs for my money.
Ta,
Janscot.

Hi, welcome to he forum. Could you tell us a little bit more about what type of ecig you have? Is it a two piece with prefilled cartridges or do you fill yourself?

A girl with a candy cigarette. The picture was used in an article about how candy cigs groom kids into smoking. It's very old.

Thanks! I knew I saw that somewhere before but I just couldn't place it. It was driving me nuts.

have you tried refilling the empty cartridges? you might find that is considerably more economical, with the bonus that you get to pick and or make your own flavors.

Buy the e-liquid and refill them. Simple as that. See youtube on "how to refill cartomizers". I order my juice from backwoodsbrew but there are many places to order them from. A 30ml bottle will cost you about $17 (from backwoods) and will last a long time. You should order 2 or 3 flavors at 5ml or 10ml then order the larger sizes of the ones that you really like. Good luck to you and happy vaping!!!

One more thing, when the performance of the cartomizer degrades you can either clean it which is a whole other process or you can just buy another 5 pack of blank ones. I just buy new cartomizers and don't mess with the cleaning process. You can get 5 of them for about $10 or so and each one lasts about a week or so depending on how much you vape. I'm a fairly heavy vaporer and each one lasts me about a week....

Hello & welcome to ECF Janscot

It's really hard to work out what e-cig you are using & whether it has a separate atomiser & cartridge or a cartomiser (atomiser built into the cartridge. However, both can be refilled with e-liquid but we could help you more with how best to refill if we knew which. My favourite e-liquid vendor Paradise Vapes (they are also in Scotland, the same as you )

Could you possibly give us the brand name or a link to where you purchased the ecig?

We're trying to work out what battery model you have to see what might be compatable with it so where can figure out a less expensive way for you to buy your own carts & juice. But to do that, we need to know the type of ecig you have.

Thank you for your replies all. To those who suggested I buy liquid and refill the empty cartridges, I will need to order them online as my newsagent who sells the intellicigs only carries refill cartridges and capsules . I wil check out the website. And to Rhinsen, I wil check out you tube about how to refill the cartomizers. I translated the 17 dollars to about 12 pounds sterling, which is fine and economical. I noticed that every time I charge the battery I have to use a refill, don't know why. Thanks all for replies.

Use a new refill on every charge? That's strange... which model do you have?

Mr Jaguar, sorry to plague you, but I don't know how to post a new thread, but I am sure you or the other kind people who helped me last week can provide an answer. Simply this, I have had a sore throat off and on and some mouth ulcers , mild ones, since I bought refills from my local newsagent. The first lot of ecigs I got online from VIP, and was fine, then the starter pack made by intellicig which I bought from my local shop was ok too. But the refills were not working well, not much vapour and difficult to get a draw. And, since then sore throat and ulcers. I am having to smoke real cigs just now in order to tell if it is the ecigs or not. Have you heard of this problem before? I am so disappointed as I so preferred the ecigs and hate going back to real fags. Thank you.
