What to buy first?

[Karma]

Well, mine last longer than that I recon around 10mls and they're past their best but probably still usable for another few ml

You're only gtting 3ml through them? are you letting them get dry and burning them?

[revhenry]

As I thought. Not sure if I'm burning them, trying not to!

[Karma]

Did you get a spikey thing to get the juice right into the wadding?

and condom fill the first fill

[revhenry]

No I didn't, and I've been drip tipping as the condoms that came with it seemed shorter than ones I'd seen on youtube, so it didn't seem like the juice was really going in.

[Chrissie]

Karma is right, they should be lasting longer than that. How many actual days are they lasting for?

[Chrissie]

Ah, if you've been filling them up via a drip tip, most of the juice will just be going down the centre tube rather than into the wadding.

[revhenry]

Er well this is the lot that came with the thing originally so in terms of days quite a while. Ah ok, I'll try condomifying again then...

Rev, from memory you bought a kit with pre-filled cartomisers. These often have different (shorter) condoms than the ones you'll have seen on youtube. Usually the condom method is only used for the first fill of a new carto, so you shouldn't need to do that. Try taking the tip off and dripping some juice into the wadding as Chrissie suggested... do it slowly until the wadding looks like a slushy. Avoid the centre tube.
If this doesn't work, it's time to splash out on a packet of boges or a couple of stardusts.

That's exactly what I have been doing. Hmmm..

[Chrissie]

Rev if they are the ones that came with your original kit & you have only used 15ml of juice since the 21st April, you are either a very light vaper or not refiling/topping up your cartos often enough

[revhenry]

Probably somewhere between the two. The cartos were prefilled so its a little more than that. I've now chucked a couple away that have had it, the remainder seem ok for now. Might order some clearomisers and more juice now though. Should I just go for normal resistance?

[revhenry]

I was about to buy some VH-star clearomizers, but spotted these which are cheaper and come with bits and pieces. What is the difference?
Thanks

[Chrissie]

Which ones Rev?

[revhenry]

SORRY! These:

compared to these:

[Chrissie]

The somkmisers arn't the same as the visions (VH Stars) I still mainly use Boge cartomisers, so will leave it up to others to explain the difference
