The juice I have now is 50/50 US blend. I'm thinking the 2 menthol flavors I have may be worse on my stomach, dont know for sure. I really like the Ginsing flavor best of the 6 I've tried so far. I may try some mint flav next. The stomach irritation, I've felt with trying nic lozenges a few years ago, that was way too much nic for me.

Hi all, I've been vaping for 1 and a half weeks now. I used to smoke a pack a day, marlboro lights, for about 30 years. The first week I still smoked analogs but one pack lasted the whole week. I bought the joye 510 kit with some cartomizers and a passthrough. The e-juice is 50/50 pg/vg at 18 mg nic. I like the atty and cart with the 510, the cartomizer doesnt seem to have enough resistsance with the 510, I am using them on the passthrough now. The 510 is lasting all day and I add drops of juice to the cart a few times a day. So, I would say I dont vape a whole lot. I went through (and still am somewhat) a lot of nervousness at work, the first week was very tough. At home, it's not so bad. I am getting some dry throat, but I always drink lots of water, and am sucking on lifesavers when it gets too dry, that helps a lot. This week I'm getting some stomach irritation, when i vape, similar to a mild stomach virus feeling. I would quit vaping for a few hours and just smoke an analog, the irritation would go away. Then come back when I start vaping again. I am wondering if it's the pg making me feel that way or the level of nic? I plan on getting some juice with lower nic, and vg only, and try that. I dont want to go back to analogs, after just a week and a half, I can breathe better, and dont cough up stuff nearly as much. Any of you veteran vapers been through this? Or have suggestions? I woulda put this post in the other forum section, but i don't have enough posts yet. Rick

I just got a 510 kit , blank cartriges. Also some cartomizers. How often should I be refilling each? lets say in how many puffs, or draws? medium 2 second draws? I've used the carts so far, and after the initial 8-10 drops, I added a few drops after probably 30-40 puffs. Is that about right? I havent tasted the burnt taste yet, dont know what that taste is. I tried a cartomizer a few times, soaked it with tobacco 555 (18ml) and to me it tasted really bad, maybe just an initial taste from a new cartomizer? It tasted so bad I dont want to try that flavor any more. I think I'll stick with the carts to find flavors I like then move to cartos.
