Vape Noob in TX sucking juice out :(

[MichaelO]

I’m a 3ish week Vape Noob J Been scouring the Internet for information as there’s a lot of terms and such that confuse me. Please forgive me if I’m not using the correct terminology.

Anyway – here’s my story. I had been a smoker for 20 or so years and I quit roughly 4 years ago when my twins were born. There wasn’t a day that went by where I didn’t want a cig – and there were some occasions when I would break down and have one or two but for the most part I stayed a ‘non-smoker’. I started noticing more and more of my smoker friends were switching to vaping – I researched it from time to time but never really pursued it beyond that. A few weeks ago I was at my inlaws house and broke out this thing that looked like a flash light and started toking on it – I started picking his brain and became very interested. He had a spare Ego-C Twist with a Clearomizer (I believe they are called) loaded me up with some juice and we all went out of the night. I have to say one of the things I missed the most, especially in a social setting – drinks food etc.., was smoking. After the night was over I was convinced and was ready to jump in. The Bro-In-Law went ahead and re-loaded my juice and let me have the Ego-C Twist and off I went.

This past weekend I went to a Brick and Mortar Vape shop and I picked up a bottle of juice as well as a tank with a cartomizer – brother in- law had one of those Cone Adapter things and away I went. I was taught how to ‘prime’ the cartomizer in the tank (again I hope I’m using the correct verbage). I loaded the tank up and I loved the amount of vape, throat hit and flavor I was happy with my purchase.

After using the new setup for a few hours the juice started coming out of the tip – talk about nasty! Is this a common issue using the tank? I did try a new cartomizer this morning which didn’t help (prompted me to create this post)

Am I doing something incorrect or any hints or tips? I’m debating on going back to the Clearomizer as I never experienced the issue with those.

Thanks!

If you're getting juice out of the cartomizer it sounds like you may have filled it up too much or you're just sucking to hard. If the clearomizer worked better for you i would stick with that.

Thanks for the response, I had already switched back to the clearomizer I had, just wanted to check to make sure I wasn't doing something silly before I considered the tank and such a 'loss' as I'm sure I overpaid for it.

Anyway - just ordered a eGo-C Twist 1100mah battery - will try the tank again when it arrives other wise I'll give it to the bro-in-law or trash it.
