My Dulcis Review
AimeeG reacted to mastiffmom for a topic
I received a generous sample of Dulcis today from VT and after trying it I'm glad Christopher was so generous. I am not a fan of tobacco flavors, I did like JC Tenn. Cured at first then as my taste returned and I discovered that sweet stuff is really good to vape I lost my taste for it. This being said I read all the reviews on this one and decided early on that I would not like it. Dulcis raves all over the place so I figured I was not going to be the outsider, the girl who never tried Dulcis. Well it's very good. Softly sweet, flavor is very full without any harshness on inhale, the tobacco kicks in very slightly on exhale but not in a heavy-handed way. TH is nice at 16mg and the vapor is very good for PG. I also noticed no aftertaste even after 2 1/2 hours. I'm very pleased with this, it hasn't overtaken White Zin or Midnight for me but is on my big bottle list. If I had one complaint about this it would be that I'm going through it too fast, this will not be in my emergency supply. Those are the ones I can tolerate while waiting for good stuff but not enough to use regularly. Shoo in for big bottle list.1 point -
I'm not sure whether you guys are the same, I read a lot of questions of what to buy first time and it brings back memories to when I first started. my priorities were: must be shaped like a real cigarette don't really care about battery life cause I can charge it must have lots of batteries reliable atomizer end colour doesn't matter now after almost a year my priorities are: doesn't matter about shape doesn't matter about size must look like anything but a cigarette battery must last all day holds loadsa juice nice throat hit who cares about attys, they are consumable nice big batteries have other vapers priorities changed over their vaping years ?1 point

I have used SmokeStik cartos. And still do sometimes. Since you said you are kind of new at refilling the SS carto.... Not that it matters... but what battery are you using (just curious) And I've used VT Grape in them and you should be getting clouds of vapor and flavor. First, did you refill it by pulling all of the little grommets and filter out? Just like Chris's video shows in the previous post. If not, you'll have a puddle of juice at the top and it'll take a long time for it to drain into the carto. You don't have to replace them if you don't want to. (so says the SS rep) but I do because I don't want any chance of juicy in the mouth. Second, when refilling, tilt the carto and let the juice run down the sides. And when you are finished, drip about 2 drips right down the center tube. Third. you should be able to get 20-30 drops in a pretty dry carto. But 17 drops should be OK but it may take it a minute to wick down to the elect. filiment (the atty). SS are made different than most. They have a horizontal attomizer at the bottom of the wicking material. It's very efficient and long lasting but takes a little time for new juice to reach it. Try holding it in your fingers, threads out, and shake it like an old style mercury thermometer. Flick your wrists. It's best not to let it run dry. refill once in a while before running dry. I hope you didn't pull out the wicking material. Some can get away with it but it's generally Not a good idea. You can wash it while it's still in the carto. They don't last forever and sometimes they just die. Although, I have to say... I've never had one die yet... but I'm a light vaper. Feel free to ask questions. I'll do what I can to help. PM me if you like.1 point

I'm stoked you like them as well as I do! That's great! Yeah, I tend to go a bit overboard maybe... but I just can't imagine why others wouldn't have the same great experience with them that I do! I'd hate for people to give up on cartos just because their first try was a bad experience. It seems like there are alot of people that don't think they put out good flavor or vapor... and I just wonder to myself what they are doing wrong! They just gotta try the good ones, learn a couple easy tips to make them perform well, and maybe then those folks that haven't given them the chance will see why Im such a 'fanboy' of them! I get MORE flavor and MORE vapor than a standard atty! By the way Schlitz... I'm sure you've read about the 'Taryn Spin' method to use with cartos? You can literally do this and change juices with very little cross contamination... and it also works great to just empty it so you can put fresh juice in one! I usually give each carto at least one REALLY GOOD spin during the time I'm using it... allowing me to use it twice as long as normal because of being able to clean it out and use fresh juice.1 point

Shocking Pass Through
noXious reacted to miatafrank for a topic
Electronic devices that give the user a shock is usually a faulty ground somewhere in the device, or a missing ground in the AC outlet where it is plugged into. Try plugging the computer into a different AC outlet to verify if it is a missing ground in the outlet, or you could also try a different computer power cable. If it proves to be the computer itself, I would have it repaired or replaced as soon as possible, as this type of problem could aso have negitive effects on the other computer devices connected to it (printers webcams, external drives, etc.)1 point -
Where To Get Liquid Nicotine?
ddavelarsen reacted to Brian for a topic
Here are links to three very good threads that will get you on your way. #1 #2 #3 These will give you lists of suppliers for nic and flavoring and supplies, tips and general mixing instructions. I would suggest starting out with mixing the flavors at 20% and go from there. I usually use 30-35% myself, but everyone is different. To get 24mg using 48mg nic as a base, use 5ml of nic, 2ml of flavoring and 3ml of PG or VG. To get 24mg using 36mg nic as a base, use 6.7ml of nic, 2ml of flavoring and 1.3ml of PG or VG. I think there's also links to a couple of different eliquid DIY calculators in those thread I posted. They are very helpful.1 point -
I Want The Ego
mastiffmom reacted to FTJoe for a topic
Really cheap but not sure with that gold band they are authentic. Have to give them a whirl and report back. Get a kit, then also get some juice, I recommend right here at vaportalk or wordupecig. Also get a few cartomizers. Try carts, direct dripping and cartos and report back. If something's wrong we'll help.1 point -

With that list your pretty much ready to go. Be sure you purchase a genuine Joye Tech eGo from some of the more well known suppliers. The cheap knock off models don't last very long before they start crapping out1 point -

I was wondering how the XL E2 V4 for 510 is? seems others have had issues but for a cartomzr with no filler/all ceramic that holds 2ml .......... doesn't seem to be a reason to make/buy a wetbox mod anymore since the little bottle used doesn't hold much more ....... I've seen them advertised $13-$18/5pk or $98/100 from manf. in China0 points
