I got the Janty Stick yesterday.. been about 24 hrs. It now has the burnt taste All the time And the leaking is on the sides, like the seams between the black and silver, both sides, however the side with the usb port is worse. I do realize that I'm putting way too much juice in, but I figured when it started tasting "dry" add more. The problem is, there's no "dry" warning... it just produces horrible taste. So I would drip more. I don't know. I'm starting to think because of all the leaking, not just inside the walls where the atty sits, that I should send it back. Maybe the vp would suit me better (?) I also apologize for posting in the wrong spot (I think) Probably should have went into the "help it broke" section.... Sorry!

LMAO! Not sure if having "blue lung" is a good trade-off to "smoker's lung!!"

one of my favs... 2.5 ml of 12mg tobacco juice 1.5 ml glycerine 1 ml total of butter rum, bavarian creme, and keoke coffee (Lorann's) makes 5 ml, 6mg strength... suuuper good! I add a few drops of each flavor, stir a bit, and smell it... if anything over-powers anything else, I add whatever I can't smell, or smells lighter.

Last week I ordered 3 new atty's for my 510. I have a total of 6 of them, and only one seems to work right. The other 5 work great for the first hit, and by the second or third hit it becomes Incredibly harsh/burnt tasting. Just like the "burning cart fiber" taste. The problem is, I haven't used any of the atty's with the fiber in them, I direct drip. Is this something wrong with them, or should I keep just burning juice on them to get that out? On the one that I use all the time, there's a point that it starts to taste slightly burnt, then I drip, and all is good. The other ones, there's absolutely No warning! I also ordered and received the Janty stick. I'm having the Exact same problem. I was thinking that this one must just use more juice, but I'm dripping so much, it's leaking. I Really love the vapor production and the taste on the Janty stick. For the first hit. It all goes down hill from there though! Another question for the stick... Could someone point me in the right direction for a wall charger for the battery, and also the car charger? I kinda think it's stupid that you have to plug the unit itself in to charge... so much for having an extra battery already charged!

hmmm, how to answer that... I started with using pg, but the nic content was too high. On day 2 I tried cutting 18 mg down. I didn't know that I needed to be Very careful with handling the nic juice. By day 3 I was sick! tummy troubles, headache, just didn't feel well. I thought it was the pg so I switched to vg. I vaped strictly that for a few days with a very low nic content. After reading some more, and as more posts came up, I started to wonder if I really was having trouble with the pg, or if I was just not careful and got too much juice on my hands. So now, as of about a week, I've been vaping 6mg pg based, and doing fine. I think my symptoms were nic overdose and not pg allergy. As far as sweet tasting, I was cutting my juice down so much that I was adding Loran's flavorings, so yeah, it was sweeter. But I think in my case, it was not the vg base but the added flavors. (I ordered 10mg from libertyecig, and it was still too high. It was making me dizzy/headachy.) I think every time that I experienced a headache (looking back), it was always because I was using too high nic content. I got one with both pg and vg, but since I've pretty much gotten my nic level right I haven't had one.

Hi Meecha- So far, these are the sites that I've found that carry VG- vermont vapor, juicy liquids, eliquid planet, libertyecig, ecigsmokestore, and liquidxpress. I've only ordered from libertyecig.com, he's got free shipping (if you check the "green" option) and does carry a selection of 10-12 mg. I can't really give you my opinion on quality because I have to cut mine down to around 6 mg. Also, I'm too new to know what a "good" juice is!

I just ordered one myself Saturday from libertyecig. It came in the mail Monday! So, Super fast shipping! He had the pcc by itself for around $25, and a kit for around $35. I got the kit, and it came with the pcc, usb charger, a battery, atomizer, and 3 empty carts. (not sure if the 3 carts are standard, or because I also ordered some juice) He also has a free shipping if you check on the "green" shipping option. I opted for that, and it was Very well wrapped in paper and bubble wrap, (looked like he just left out the boxes).. everything works great! I'm sure more members will chime in...

lol dumbass My term of endearment to hubby: Jack-***. say the Jack, like real fast, like Snap it! Jack-aaas! (only when the chiren aren't around tho ) Yeah, been drinkin... um, water, yeah, water. No seriously, really actually Have been drinking water. Good suggestion though. I don't think that's my prob, unfortunately. Tummy gets all gurgly within a half hour or so of vapin.. every time. Even with the lower amts of nic. The more I'm reading, the more I'm thinking it's the pg What a bummer, it's not very easy to get! (maybe it is easy to get, just not too many reviews on the stuff!) I've read that it's the pg leaving the weird coating feeling, does the vg based do the same thing? Weird about the Johnson Creek site. I Still can't get past that! Wonder why it doesn't even come up for you?

Thanks, Karate! I did change to lower nic today, tummy is Really upset still It does seem to have fixed the headache issues though, and my head's not spinning. I'm going to wait for my vg juice and see what happens. I'm getting kinda disappointed though. *sigh* For good news.. got another e-mail from elibertycigs, my order shipped already! and there was a note at the top that said "manual batteries substituted for automatic, per customer request" Awesome! They had a deal for around $35 for the pcc, a batt, and an atty. Their juice is $8.99 for 15ml bottles... plus free shipping if you check the go green shipping (no special gift box packaging) so, all said and done, approx $65 for case, battery, atty, 3 bottles vg juice... I didn't think that was bad at all. Still can't get into the JC site, and I even tried to get some vaportalk pg this morning, when I clicked on the add to cart button it kept taking me to an error page.

hmmm, not sure where to start I spent most of the day yesterday Not vaping Was making my head spin and my tummy feels... weird. Among other things. So, I'm thinking it's possible that I'm having PG allergy issues, in addition to my "my juice is too high in nic content" issue. In my search for non PG juices, I was having a Really hard time finding a site that I could order from. Like, literally. First I tried JC, they seem to have overwhelming positive reviews, so that was my first stop. I can't get into the site! It comes up, it's there, then goes dim and into the background, and the "are you sure you're 18, enter/exit" screen. I click "enter." Background brightens up, I'm on for... a millisecond, enter/exit screen comes back. grrrrr. I can click that a hundred times, I can't get past it. Not sure what's up with that. Then I check out various other vg suppliers... most are having paypal issues. Now, I'm getting frustrated cuz the one that's in-stock, right strength, etc is in China... kinda leary of ordering from China. Don't know why, just am. I ended up ordering from libertyecig. We'll see. They had the pcc in stock so I ordered that too. Only downside to that is, it comes with auto batt. It wouldn't let me change it to manual. Hope my manual batts fit (?) They did have okay prices, but after I ordered I'm not seeing too many reviews on quality/taste. I also have been experimenting some with lowering the nic strength in my juices. So far, so good! So, that's a plus! I put about 1ml of 18mg cherry (from electronicstix), 2ml Wilton's glycerine, and about 1ml of distilled water. It made it much much smoother! Oh, and I think I put a few drops of 6mg vanilla in there too! Vaping today is a much happier experience! Edited to add: I just checked my e-mail. I sent them a question if the manual batts fit the pcc. They already sent a response! Their pcc has the cut out for the manual ones, AND their going to see if they can send me a manual one instead of the auto one that comes with it. Appears their response to email time is exceptional!

Thanks, Guys! All the advice and responses sure do help! As an update... I've been messing around with this off and on today. My troubles do seem to all be coming from the strength of the nic. I did, however, go out and get the Wilton's glycerine. What seems to taste much better and be alot smoother/easier to vape, I mixed the glycerine and just a bit of distilled water, took the fiber out of the cart, and stirred it in the glycerine... it kinda, sorta idk, watered down the horribleness of the pre-filled cart Now I can at least tolerate what's in there, and the glycerine that I put the fiber in smells like the juice that was in there to begin with. (bonus! I may have made myself a tobacco flavor that I can stand... downside: no clue what the nic content in there is!) After I already did that, I watched the rita video oh well, I still have 3 bottles of juice that I can experiment with lowering the nic. Question though, why do some put distilled water, and some are doing 50/50 with no water? Do you need the water? I'm planning on cutting my 18 mg cherry down to, idk, maybe like 6... if I just keep halfing it will it become to, uhhhhh, glycerine'ey (?) (what a ridiculous word!) I'm thinking I'd need to add some flavoring? and maybe the glycerine in that amount would... be.. too... thick..., Hence The Water! (did I just answer my own question?)

S'allll good! Now I'm just gonna need to get some different juice, try different suppliers. I'm definately liking the flavors from electronicstix that I ordered, but some are kinda harsh. The cherry one is pretty good, but for some reason I ordered the 18mg on that one, toooo strong for me! So far, I'm actually liking their capuccino one the best.. I saw other reviewers say it's a hit or miss flavor, this one tastes like a capuccino (imagine that!) Like I said before, I'm an ultra lights smoker, gonna do some researchin on smooth vs harsh flavors, suppliers... stuff. I'm finding it kinda weird to "smoke" in my house... sorta feels like I still need to "go outside"

sorry, being a newbie, I don't know how to quote ... but I was interested in the same thing, and have the same apprehensions about pm'ing someone. I think it looks an awful lot like a glue pen, too.. or a highlighter. Anyone try making their own yet? Looks like you could almost wash out the ink from one and refill it with juice (?) hmmmmm, might hafta try that

Well, they're not flat They actually look Just like the atomizer, just a little different finish, and no gold trim, and they have a hole in the end, and they.. j/k, no, they're not whistle tips, they're definately round. I suppose having a tight fit is not really a problem, would be more of a problem if the thing came apart too easily!

uhhhhh, ummmmm, I think I'm gonna say no on the whistle tips. I have whatever came with the starter kit. I'm assuming regular, plain-old 510 carts.

It's here, It came! ... kinda wishing I woulda went to the door when the dog was barking an hour ago! Anyway, this thing is COOOLLL! I'm likin it! Now for a question... is it normal, or is there a wear-in time for how tight the cart fits into the atomizer? This thing is freakin Hard to take apart! I would be tempted to find one of hubby's pliers, but I realllly like the black finish Edit to add: 510 (btw)
