I know, I know, there's plenty of threads about these already. I just wanted to say these things rock! They are the best thing I have ever tried on e-cigs. Easy to fill.... dead easy, no juice all over the place. fingers/desk etc No wastage, they don't go wrong and if they do, you just tip the juice back into the bottle. The flavour, my god the flavour, why can't other things taste like this. You see when they are empty, no guessing with cartos, no overfilling, I used to waste loads of juice with cartos trying to keep them wet and the juice overflowing. Dead easy to wash and dry burn. Once a day I take off the vision and clean the bottom of it, the 510-ego adaptor and the top of the LT and that's it. Bit of juice and moisture, easy. I've had no problems with wicking since I learnt not to do up the mouthpiece too tight. And I think they look cool and the flavour.... this is what those good juices are made for. Downsides? Maybe a slight death of throat hit, cracking so everyone says, although mine have been ok so far (the black smoked ones), I can't find anything else wrong with them, although I know some people have had problems with them. And some don't like the fact you need to keep the short wicks wet by lifting up the e-cig to the horizontal. I would ahve loved these to have been around when I started, although going through all the options I have, has taught me how good these really are. I wonder how the new long wicked versions will vape and if they will sort out the having to keep the pv at the horizontal thing. Did I mention the flavour?

Good post womble and it echoes my feelings as well.
It`s also reminded me i need to get a couple more ordered once i find out who`s the cheapest at the minute to see me through to the next GB.

I second everything you've said womble, but I'm surprised you didn't mention the flavour?? #icon_rofl#

I second everything you've said womble, but I'm surprised you didn't mention the flavour?? I didn't like to bang on about it too much The problem is, all my juices keep calling out for me to try them in a vision and I didn't order enough on the GB I thought 5 would be enough to find out if they worked. I got 25 cartos as well on the GB and it shows that all 25 are still unpacked and unused. The tanks they were going to be used in are clean and waiting. When I used carto tanks, back in the old days (last week) I was always annoyed at not being able to use different flavours without buying another expensive tank, or changing cartos. Now I can have a few different juices on the go at once! Relatively cheaply and they work! What I really like about these, is you can show someone in a few minutes how to do everything with them. No filling and leaving for a couple of hours to get the best out of them. It's all visible and obvious. And when I need to, it looks easy to rewick.

Agree with you womble, I've tried a few different carto's etc since taking up vaping 6 months ago and think these are the bees knees! Maybe a couple of extra holes at the bottom (battery end) would improve soaking...perhaps a vendor could have a word with the manufacturer?

Wish I had the same experience of these as you have womble. Trust me, me too. I'm sure if I was with you, you'd be vaping them well in 5 minutes. Not that I'm an expert on them yet. But just that they are so simple. When you open another new one, if you have one. When you screw on the mouthpiece just do it gently till it has a light seal on the silicon condom inside the top, I know I've repeated this a few times on this site. But it ruined my first experience when I tightened it up too much. If you have already tightened it up too much, I would make a tiny hook out of a paperclip, insert it into the top and gently pull up the condom a little, before gently replacing the mouthpiece.

That will probably be revision 47, knowing the manufacturers It's the longer wick versions next up.

I've used the paperclip method & hasn't made a difference. The SR one seems worse than the LR one.
I do think that maybe I just got a duff batch.

I have Womble, but only the LR ones up to now and only with 70/30 PG/VG.
They are definately an improvement for me, wicking wise.
But, I'll reserve judgement on the VG heavy mixes until I've tried them because I've found before that a longer wick doesn't necessarily mean an improvement with thicker liquids.

Do you want me to send you one of mine that I know is working? You can use one of your mouthpieces on it so you don't catch cooties. I'd hate for you to miss out.
