Hello From Confused Newbie

[beautycat]

Ask as many questions as you want and never think they are silly

[han78]

actually that's true beauty, the video I watched didn't tell you that just showed you how to take a pull on an e-cig, it was someone on AAEC that explained not to take it down in to your lungs! )

Taking a drag is more difficult than you think though, try not to take it down into your lungs like you would a cig at first as it tends to make you cough

You know, I've never even thought about it.

Now I'm getting paranoid... ???

Nothing to get paranoid about Djs

There is no problem with taking the vapour down into your lungs, but as Beautycat says, it can make folks cough to begin with, so it's just best to hold the vapour in your mouth for a few seconds before inhaling it.

Well, I just went outside and took some notice of what I was doing.
Safe to say, I'm not dragging it straight down.

Which is quite good, as I just lost a brand new carto filled 20 minutes ago. Half-a-dozen puffs then BANG, burnt out.

Something's not right with all this. I'd checked it, there was fluid on the top of the filler, and I'd filled this one from the bottom, for a change. It was 100% VG, I wonder if it's just too thick to soak in. ???

[Chrissie]

If it is 100% VG, that could easily be the problem.

Which is the answer. Just tested another two carts, one with PG and one VG. (both 100%)
Can't even get half as much in before pooling, so it's not soaking in well at all. Shall top up with PG, and re-try.

Yup. Just worked that out while our posts crossed.

Typical.

Vivi Novas work well with pure VG
