Another newbie - help needed.... please

[wendy123]

thanks Jason, Am still soaking cartomiser - You're right its a bit trial and error to start with and I did expect that because its new to me.

Also, Doh! Have just realised I hadn't been pushing the drip tip right in - have now realised it actually clicks right in.......... so drip tip is fine.

So, if I get the cartomiser working correctly, one fill should last approx the same as 10 cigarettes? Is that right?

[Chrissie]

Wendy, hows about giving your atomisers & cartridges a go while you are waiting for your cartomisers to sit & soak up the juice?

7-10 yes, roughly.

Basically, as soon as the flavour/vapour start to diminish, take your drip tip off and add 6-8 drops into the wadding surrounding the centre tube, then off you go again (no need to use the condom method after the first fill, because you are then just 'topping off' the cartomiser).

Welcome to the tar-free ranks

If anyone does or has been to a quit clinic while starting out in the world of vaping, I and I'm sure a lot of others in here, would be very interested in hearing what they have to say about vaping.

[Chrissie]

Anne, the quit smoking clinics are mainly funded by Big Pharm, so will only promote patches,gums, inhalers, drugs made by them

[Anne (fuzzy)]

I'd just like to know their personal opinion Chrissie, if they have one - and would share it

[dave]

Great to hear you are getting the hang of it Wendy. I had some moments of panic when I first started, like many I guess, but you soon get the hang of it and you will be vaping like a good un in no time!
