Newbie needs advice....

Hi Cambo, sounds like you are dong really well

I'd have also thought the Nicolite cartos would have worked on the Sky cig.

[DiscoDes]

They're probably marginally too short so are not making contact with the battery.

I think DiscoDes is right....when you look at the Nicolite's the connection bit inside the thread end is not quite as long and is smaller and thinner in comparison, where as the skycig is longer and is completely flat so it would seem that the Nicolite is not quite making contact with the battery. Shame really as everywhere sells the Nicolites, i've even seen them in my local corner shop so that would have been handy knowing they are readily available. Oh well, i'll just have to make sure I plan in advance haha.

Yes cambo, one of the problems about vaping is that you can't just nip to the corner shop. it's always a good idea to have spares

You can use them so don't bin them.
I came across this obstacle with nicolites tips, some work some dont even on ther own batteries so poor quality control in my opinion.
All you need to do blue peter style is, Are you ready
Get a thin pointed knife or something similar in your hand and the cartomiser upside down that does not work in the other hand.
Now look at the inner connection, you looking at it, good gently lift the centre piece up, not a lot you probably wont even see it move.
Now try it, see it works.

baconandeggs, you are a flippin genius!
I only had 1 left as I managed to completely stuff the other 2 up swapping over the wadding inside to the skycig cartos (didn't work!) but at least I now have the last one, and I know I can use them in future should I need to.
Thank you.

Your welcome and well done.
When the nicolites give up you can refill them them aswell. Use a fork or something to remove the plastic piece and drip some juice into the wadding so it's soaked in well.
It will be of mixed flavouring, infact i am still using some of there tips i had month's ago with all sorts cross mixed in them and very pleasing they are too.
