Please help, no vapour from my 510

[Katfish]

Hi if anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it!! I have a 510 which arrived yesterday. I thought I was doing OK with it and have only smoked 1 roll up today, miracle.
Apart from having it on charge constantly the vapour has stopped! I have put in a new cart and topped up and changed the battery. The spare atomizer doesn't work either, what am I doing wrong? ???

[Chrissie]

Hello & welcome Katfish

Are neither of the atomisers working on neither of the batteries?

[Katfish]

Hi Chrissie, and thank you!
One of the atomizers is working, but with not much vapour and the other one gets hot but nothing happens! I have just poured that friday glass of wine and the baccy is calling! On a serious note I am a 40 a day cougher and I am delighted with the fact that I have only had 1 real fag and that was for breakfast!

[Chrissie]

Lol, sounds like you are doing so well so now we need to get it kicked in & working properly for you

If it's getting hot but no vapour, then that should mean that both that battery & attie are working. So it sounds like a juice issue to me. Are you keeping the cartridges nice & wet? Also try dripping a few drops of juice directly on the attie.

I'm going to have to go soon & feed the zoo (& then me) so hope someone can take over from me to help Katfish more.

[Katfish]

Thank you, I will try that now.
I would like to get the other half to e-smoke, he is a tramper, so I don't see him all week and his artic is 24 volt battery. Any suggestions as to which products are suitable and need less charging?
Sorry to ask so many questions, but It's all greek to me! lol

[Katfish]

Thanks Chrissie, it worked! Perhaps someone else could answer my questions, while you feed your Zoo, luckily I have fed mine!

It sounds like the atomizer could be flooded. Take off the atomizer and blow hard into the small hole in the battery end of it, shake it and see if any juice comes out. Repeat, until you have removed all of the excess juice.

There is a learning curve to these things, you will get the hang of it, soon enough.

I need to go and feed myself too.

[Katfish]

Thanks Jerryrm, I'm afraid I wasn't using enough juice, silly mistake, and you are so right about the learning curve, but hey the baccy is still in the cupboard, so panic over for this bird brain!!!!

[Chrissie]

Back from feeding the zoo (but not me - yet )

Jerry, I don't think it's flooded as Kat seems to have got it working now by dripping into the atty. Kat, as Jerry says, it is a learning curve to begin with. The main thing is keeping the atties/cartridges nice & moist but without flooding them.

Never apologies for asking questions, that's what we are here for

If your OH doesn't mind an e-cig that is more the size of a cigar, then a Riva would be a good bet to start with as they have longer battery life between recharges.

The light bundle @ £29.99 from Liberty Flights is a great price & there if you use the discount code ECR69 you get 15% off.

Here is a video review of the above (different name due to being sold by a different vendor)

On the first link that Chrissie has provided, they still have 22 Special Edition kits available... these come out at £30.88 delivered with the ECR69 code. They look real nice, vape well and are a great deal.

Thank you for all your help, i have watched the videos and think that I would like to buy a joye ego for my OH. If he doesn't like it I will have it, Ha Ha!

[Perpetua]

If your OH is on the road, I'd suggest it could be worthwhile investing a little more on a Tank kit . . . basically the same as the Ego, except it comes with a tank that you fill with eliquid.

It might be a little easier for him as he won't have to worry about topping cartridges up.

Forgive my manners . . . hello & a warm welcome from me Kat.

[Katfish]

Thank you for your kind welcome! I will try to convince the old smoker when he comes home tonight. He is dead against stopping smoking and doesn't believe me, when I tell him that he won't want a cigarette if he uses one of these. It's going to be a tough task, but thank you for all the info and help, and the tank sounds like the perfect thing for him!

[Perpetua]

I doubt that there is an ex-smoker here Kat, that ever thought they'd find something that could replace cigarettes for them . . . I know I certainly didn't.

If you can keep ecigs as faff free as possible for your OH, you'll stand a good chance, which is why I reckon the Tank could be an excellent choice for him . . . he could also charge the batteries using one of these.

Thank you Perpetua,
this indeed seems to be the best option for him! Or me, if he refuses to try it!
