Advice needed

[fizzabelly]

Well thanks to all of you for your advice.. and to Sammy for asking the questions! Been using a fake mini cig for a couple of months , venturing into eliquids, but finally made the jump and ordered 3 of the blister packs.. Two for me, one for a present for a friend, who is vaping with me! Am sure I will be back with more questions.. but making progress!

Nice to meet you Fizzabelly

Welcome Fizzabelly, keep an eye on this thread because there will be many more questions I am sure, and maybe the answers will help you too.

Not been home long and guess what the postman has brought me this morning
Yep, my 2 blister packs, along with a bottle of free juice in hot chocolate flavour. Sounds yummy

Last night I finally managed to order the cartomisers from wizard, and a bottle of juice, and I am awaiting 3 bottles of liquid from somewhere else.
So shortly I will have everything.

So onto my - what should I call them? sticks??
Maybe that should be my first question today, what do you call these things?
My vaper, my stick, my e-cig, my thing or do you just call it a personal name . If you said to someone, I'm just going to get my x from my bag what word do you use ???

Hello & welcome fizzabelly As Karma says, please do start your own thread so others can come along & welcome you

Sammy, call it what you like I still call mine e-ciggies, but for instance my next door neighbours call theirs puffers. My next door but one neighbours (they are both in their mid 70's) call theirs thingymajigs

My thingies, I was sent one purple , one blue, and they look a lot better than I imagined, very nice indeed, but they are twice the size of a sky cig .
I will have quite a few questions as I don't want to break anything .
I have removed it from the packet good start lol.
It is now in three parts.
1- A black battery with a silver screw thread on, -
2 - a black mouthpiece,
3- a silver ring, a purple clearomiser, a plain silver ring, and a fancy silver bit.

I have not charged it yet, nor intending on filling it, I would like to get idiot proof instructions first.
First question-
I kinda thought the fluid would go in the fat end so I'm a little worried here.
Nothing wrong with my eyesight just cautious.
If I look into it I see what appears to be a white plastic bit holding a metal rod with a hole in it.
I know I have to tilt it 45 degrees to fill it, but have I got to get it between the purple plastic and the white plastic holder?
Does it matter if I hit the white plastic holder? There doesn't seem to be much of a gap between that and the clearomiser.

Second question
Once I have managed to get something in it do I just screw the mouthpiece back on straight away?

The charger seems straighforward so I think I am ok there.

Third question
When the battery is fully charged, will it stay fully charged until I use it, and then ony use charge as I use it.

For example if I was to charge it up, and not turn it on for 2 days while I am waiting for the rest of my things to come
will it still be fully charged ?

My skycig flashes on everytime you knock it, move it or touch it so the battery doesn't last long at all.
You never really have a full battery as a backup.
I fancy having a play with it as soon as I can

Have a look at this guide, it's not exactly the same kit as you have sammy13 but similar. Ignore the bit about cartomisers

Thanks Karma, I have read through that, and watched the videos.
When I first watched the vids a few days ago I was wandering around when it started and I heard some bloke talking about condoms. I faced the screen expecting to see him filling it up with a condom i.e durex, I think I'm going nuts.

[Chrissie]

Sammy, your batteries will come with a factory charge so you can use them straight away, do have a look at the link that Karma ha posted to help you further

The battery will more or less stay fully charged if you don't use it. However, like any battery, if left unused it will very slowly drain but should still be OK up to a couple of years or so

Lol Sammy

The kit you have bought comes with a clearomiser so no need to worry about condoms of any kind Just fill your clearomiser like this -

[sammy13]

Ok I've watched the vid a few times, but I can't see if he is getting any on the white tube, I know the aim is probably to get it straight down the side, and he does make it look easy, but do I have to miss the white tube?

Yes, but if you hold it at an angle it is quite easy, or you could get a needle topped bottle, like this one

Sammy, it really is very easy - honest

As Karma says, just hold it at an angle
