SmokeSkins Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Hello all! I just switched my father over from the analog cigarette to an e-cigarette and I am very happy he is attempting to make the switch. He roughly smoked half a pack a day and he doesn't speak english or is very technical savvy and I am not home to monitor to when he should change cartridges due to the taste/smell/smoke. I told him to change the cartridge roughly every 2 days - do you think think thats too late? Any opinions would be very helpful
easilyamused Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 what device is he using? as for cartridges, back when i used them i used to use them for quite some time, until they got too gross to vape with, but there are cart mods like the lipton tea bags and other fillers, i havent tried them but it seems that if he is going to use cartridges that might be a cost effective way to reuse them...

I got him a VaporKing KR808 manual battery with a SmokeTip cartridge at 12mg.
easilyamused Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 ok, so i did some reading on that, it would seem they tend to burn so people do change them often, i hope someone with more experience with that model chimes in on this
BirdDog Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I would have several pre-filled on hand and ready to switch out when needed. Instead of explaining it to him in days, I would explain to him when the vapor drops off or decreases to change the cartridge for a new one. Is it really a cartridge or cartomizer? I thought KR808's only used a cartomizer. I don't know of a cartridge or cartomizer that will last 2 days before either being replaced or refilled.
CarolG Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I use KR808's and go through cartos like crazy. I only smoked a little over half a pack/day but vape way more than I smoked. Does your father do that, too? Either way, they usually don't last as long as a pack of cigarettes. Like BirdDog said, when the vapor drops (also check the battery to see if it's still charged) or when he gets a slight burnt taste, it's time to change or refill.
Christopher Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Tell him when it tastes like burnt toast or burnt plastic to switch. He'll know when it happens.
SmokeSkins Posted March 2, 2011 Author Posted March 2, 2011 Thanks for the replies, I will definitely let him know
