What to buy first?

[Karma]

Direct dripping - dripping e-liquid straight onto the atomiser (heating coil)

Topping up - dripping liquid around the wadding in a cartomiser

If you only have cartomisers, don't worry about direct dripping, just keep them topped up and moist

[revhenry]

Ah ok thanks. I wondered why very little was coming up on youtube searching for 'direct drip cartomiser'! So I should top up after each use? Also, what are dual coil and low resistance cartos and do I need to worry about them?

Don't worry about them this week, just enjoy your kit for the moment and work out for youself how often you need to top up

BTW, i didn't mean to sound rude, but you do have to work out yourself how often to top up. It depends on how long vapes you take etc. Just keep checking that the carto looks fairly moist and don't forget to avoid getting juice down the middle hole. If you do blow through it onto a tissue to clear it

Whatever happened to the bungacoctailstickdownthemiddleholeything method everyone got so excited about for a while??

Talking of carto's, they make me go really dizzy, don't laugh lol and it's like my whole head goes numb if i carry on, don't know if it's cos they are lr or extra nicoteine hit or what, but not what you would call pleasant, any thought's.

What strength are you vaping blue?

[Bluefish]

18- 20mg

[Bluefish]

I did think of trying a weaker solution, but haven'tgot any at the mo. In fact most of mine are 18mg.

[Karma]

It does sound like the nic content is too high for you

You could vape less until you get some lower nic juice

or, get a bottle of Vegetable Glycerine from Boots and dilute the liquids you have and see if that helps

[Bluefish]

Good idea Karma, does it have to be from boots, cos saw Glycerine in asda last week but not sure if it was the right stuff?

[Karma]

If it's pure VG it should be fine, i think

[Bluefish]

Ok cheers, i'll have another look/check befor buying.

[Perpetua]

It's pretty much bound to be ok Blue . . . it could even be the Dr. Oetker range if it's in a 38ml bottle . . . Boots is better value though, 99p for 200ml.

Back in the Dark Ages, before Vaping was even thought of, we used to use glycerine for making royal icing more flexible when cake decorating.

It can also be found in tooth paste
