Yea - I always have the drip tip on...you're using regular cartos on the joker though, right? These are true low resistance, 1.8. Man - put it on a mega 510 batt, still a punch in the face. I love LR attys on an ego, these are too much though I think.

These are unbelievable. Going to give it a while and see how long the juice lasts. But I can actually puff it like I would a cig and inhale it. Flavor seems to get a little lost with the heat, going to try some straight mentha, this is a mentha/dulcis mix. I'll report back in the review section.

So I got some low res cartos from provape. Took small condom and cap off mouth piece, and the small translucent piece inside out also. Left battery side condom on. I just started pouring the juice into the top. I'm doing this because no matter how careful I am slanting and shaking, and blowing out the hole, I seem to get juiced for the first several draws. This seems so much easier. Plus I think for better or worse, this material is more absorbent. I also need to make this easy for a few other people I'm starting up (I'm hoping the ego and low res carto will be almost perfect). Also, have the V4L cartos on an adapter, nice, but not a lot of vapor as an LR atty puts out. I guess I should have checked the number of drops, it's taking an insane amount of juice. I keep checking to make sure there isn't a stream of juice on the counter. Ooops - letting it sit now. I promised myself to do a quick check to make sure the carto is working before juicing. Fingers crossed!!

I forgot Christopher's excellent suggestion last time this came up. If you are afraid of lost/tampered luggage, mail some equipment ahead of you If going to a hotel, just tell them its coming and they will hold on to it until you get there. Here's the thread. http://www.vaportalk.com/forum/forum/topic/4974-traveling-with-ecigs/page__view__findpost__p__43640

Two issues, checked luggage and carry on. Checked really shouldn't be an issue but carry on really shouldn't either. Just respect the clear bottle of liquid, no more than 3ml. If it was me and I wanted to bring it on, push it into your pocket, as long as you're not searched, you're good, if you are, it's e-cig juice. Pull out the device and puff. My wife was in Spain and got nailed coming back, she showed them what is was, and it was cool. When I traveled last, I left my devices that looked like detonators at home (indulgence). I took my spade and my battery charger with me but no juice (I don't need to vape anymore, I do it more as a hobby). One checked bag had a kit with a PCC, juice, charger, attys and 510 batts. Another bag had more juice batts, attys and a charger as well. Third had more batteries, cartos, juice and another charger. No probs at all. I think Christopher has mentioned traveling with the devices and not having any issues. Again, I would NOT push the envelope and vape in the open. There is no wiggle room when it comes to planes these days, bathroom and make sure there is no vapor just in case, or under a blanky. If you have a spade, spin the battery around, turn the cool LED off.

The cartos should be good as well, if not better on an ego. They should fit nice, I recommend replacing the cap if soft with a drip tip to extend it a little and you can drip into it to keep it moist and going. If no drip tip even a regular tip just to extend it.

Good question!!!

Two options, one under the blanket, two in the bathroom. I think the jury is out on whether you can set off the detector or not. If you hold your breath, there should be no vapor. If you think the addiction is really nic, get some gum or lozenges before you go just to add some extra insurance. I would not vape openly, too many people will freak and if you have an air marshal, it could get ugly. Spread the fluid around. How soon you going? I have tons of 3ml bottles if you need. Or load up some cartos so its not obvious its fluid. If you have backups pack some in the luggage as well along with more fluid.

Many computers don't put out too much juice on their USB ports so it would be tough or even impossible to run the 5V passthru (the one without a battery) so I think most folks use a wall charger like the one nana pointed you to. I believe the 3.7V actually runs off the battery and the USB connection is purely to keep the battery charged, I think you can even unplug it and still use it. So that's fine to charge off a computer or even off the car charger (I think). These are just options to get a passthru out of the house and into a car. If you want a PCC for the car than you can pretty much ignore the car charger. Yes you can charge one battery while using the other on the PCC. They can be had for about $20 at various places. The PCCs usually re-charge via a USB connection so make sure it's charged before you leave or...get a car charger (hahahaha). nana said she liked madvapes, shipping is reasonable and they have PCCs. I sued a PCC for quite a while, very nice device. http://www.madvapes.com/PCCs_c_18.html

ya- not too worried. Lori, you area 510, right? If you're at the computer you can try some cheap passthrus. maybe like these: http://www.shop.wordupecig.com/Joye-510-520-Pass-Throughs-Joye-510-Pass-Throughs.htmhttp://www.shop.wordupecig.com/Joye-510-520-Pass-Throughs-Joye-510-Pass-Throughs.htm Some of these are 5V which means they won't work too good off the PC, but if you use something like this you should get a good jolt from it though it does depend on the output of the adapter. You'd have to see if someone here knows for sure or email wordup. There are plenty like this out there. http://www.shop.wordupecig.com/USB-AC-Wall-Charger-Adapter-with-US-plug-USB-AC-Adapter-with-US-plug.htm Now some of the passthrus are 3.7V which I think means there is a rechargeable battery in the line. I believe what is really happening is the battery drives the pcc and the USB recharges the battery. There was a discussion around here on that very item http://www.shop.wordupecig.com/USB-Cigarette-Lighter-Adapter-USB-Cigarette-Lighter-Adapter.htm I believe you could also use this with that setup, it says not to but I assume for charging the battery on the 3.7V models it would be fine but not okay for running the 5V passthru. http://www.shop.wordupecig.com/USB-Cigarette-Lighter-Adapter-USB-Cigarette-Lighter-Adapter.htm It could also be used to charge a PCC, battery, cell phone, etc. The PCCs are great, but if you have two batteries, you can always be charging one while using the other. I have 510 chargers that run off a USB like this http://www.shop.wordupecig.com/USB-Battery-Charger-USB-Battery-Charger.htm Too much info, hopefully it correct info? If it was me, I would look at an ego battery. About $40 for one for the battery/cone and a $10 charger (special fast USB charger just for the ego). Or you can use a little attachment that will let you charge it on a regular 510 charger. 510 attys work on it, battery lasts a long time.

When I was cutting down I did it at about 2mg/ml each week. Buy some lower level nic, you can mix low and high to get a middle ground. Change the percentage to drop or raise the levels. Many actually vape different leves at different times of the day, higher in the morning, lower during, etc. You can always cut it with straight VG or PG but then you cut the flavor as well. If you plan it out right you won't waste too much.

Nice...but there's really only one peppermint patty...Hot chocolate with Rumplemintz.

FYI - I think the v4l cartos are 901 style so stay away unless you get an adapter, its not real clear on the website. I should have them in my hands today. Sorry for not being clear (where are those experts?).

I just got these from wordupecig. The "A" one seems bigger.

We have people her doing 48mg so I ain't laughing. If you think its not enough, go a little stronger. If its too much (dizzy), then back off. It doesn't have to go to waste either, get 36, too much, get 12, mix evenly and you have 24 again. Oh by the way, I didn't answer one question. When I was doing the regular polyfill carts, I would drip the juice in to refill and if it puddled up, then it was too much. Either dab it off, or jam the cart back into the atty and vape that excess away. Also, long slow draws are what you want. This is not fire so you have to give the atomizer time to vaporize the juice and let more take its place. Speaking of juice, and I'm really stalling for the experts to show up, wordupecig has quite the selection depending on your taste preference. The absolute best is here in the vaportalk store (IMHO). There is a thread here onpeople calling out there favorite juice suppliers. I like wordup because for beginners they have free shipping and a pick five 5ml bottles for $21. http://www.shop.wordupecig.com/e-lquid-Variety-Pack-e-lquid-Variety-Pack.htm V4L has a great little fathersday sale going on as well and their juices and carts are pretty well priced. Premium Cartos http://store.vapor4life.com/Premium_Vapor_King_Electronic_Cigarette_Cartomizers_s/45.htm (nice throat hit, hold a ton of juice) Excellent Juices (I am told http://store.vapor4life.com/Nobacco_Smoke_Juice_s/35.htm especialy the wow juices... http://store.vapor4life.com/The_very_best_E_Liquid_in_the_vaping_business_s/49.htm This all according to dayvape who you met earlier If you go back and look at the link I posted to the store how to site, one clip explains how to direct drip, easiest.

Okay, dayvape is not helping. The joke is many of the mall places advertise that a cart is a pack of cigs. More like 2-3 as I stated. second, what strength juice did you get? That definitely sounds like not enough nic based on symptoms. You can get off it if you want, nicotine withdrawal only lasts a few days (approx 10) but you should always start out with what makes you comfortable and it sounds like you're low. Having said that, the goal of most folks here is to stop smoking, not to stop the nicotine and there are plenty of good arguments that nicotine in and of itself is not that bad. My rule is, unlike any other method to quit smoking, this one should be almost effortless (relatively speaking). So if you need to grab a smoke or three while you figure out what's not working, DO IT. One less cigarette is good, more better, none is the goal. Plenty of folks here still have a couple during the day and that is okay. I've tried every method of quitting out there, if you can have three cigs a day coming off two packs, how cool is that? in what other alternate reality could that have happened? Unlike a diet, there is no failure here, figure it out, ask for help and move on. Make sure its comfortable for you but that does take experimentation. And where is my help, noob vids, cartos, fluval, blue foam, direct dripping <-- in fact go to the store and look for this. Nice set of instructionals the founder (Christopher) put up. yeah - he's tough to look at, but worth while. hahahaha - just kidding Christopher. Site is here just in case you didn't realize the hotspot is under the word "this" http://www.vaportalkstore.com/pages/How-To!.html

I'm sorry - that was my evil twin posting while I wandered away for a minute!!!! I've locked him back up again, no more bathroom breaks for him!!!

Startup screen OSX - flawless I guess I should add I had a whole post on what I planned to do when I ordered this in November. Way too much fun for $200. This is actually a very useful machine. Use it to run my Logitech SqueezeboxServer and MySqueezeBox.com and any random search requests.

yuppers - you got it. meh - we're more of a battery/wire/switch kind of group. You want to design a new battery, have fun.

I don't know where to start, but the smart folks will be here soon A regular cart is only about 2-3 cigs. Then drip a bunch into the cart until it kind of puddles up on top. And that's too much. But if you flip it over and jam it home, and vape, you will get rid of the excess. The smart people will be here soon in regards to dripping, blue foam, fluvil, cartos, etc. I know it sounds confusing, but the good news is, you are starting when the options and the experience is just starting to really open up.

Old thread resurrected!! I love Mentha, been mixing with Dulcis. I have to say, I've ordered a bunch from v4l and am curious how they are and more importantly how the wife like em.

Grats!!! It'll stay good, I'm collecting ego/tornado batts now. Next up, low res attys, did you get one or no? Really make the ego/tornado shine!!!

I was going to go with the infamous..."can't we all just get along?"...

Slow down, you'll scare them away. I still have my ego/510 charger question still open you got such a kick out of...speaking of which, if there's a fireball in NJ, it was me. Hooking the 510 up now!!!!

One big happy family?
