Assumes position on diving board!!

Flynt is feeling encouraged by the warm and friendly welcome on the newbies area...so much so that Flynt has decided to visit the big boy's (& girls) territory...brave or what...

*clears throat*...said in best Max Bygraves voice...I wanna tell you a story...

(strange that I never could impersonate him till I started smoking e-cigs)...

Ok...have the V5T 510-T from V-Cig.com.

Charged batteries...loaded juice and proceeded to choke self...learned very quickly not to treat it as a normal coffin nail rollie...
Was out on job Thursday...ideal time to try it out properly methought...didn't go quite to plan...despite much sucking the lack of vapour was striking by it's absence...hmmm...check light up end...looked a tad weak on the glow...maybe the batteries were not fully charged as I thought...so plug it into car charger and carry on puffing rollies for the mo.

I decide to give it another go once home...suck...suck...suck...suck...nowt...not even a hint of vapour...change battery then...more sucking ...nope this one the same...no hint of taste or vapour...hmmm must be doing summat wrong methinks...will peruse Chrissies forum tomorrow for some hints and possible solution.

In meantime I order a small quantity of juices from Liberty Flights...just small taster types to see if I like or not.

So Friday dawns...new juices arrive in post and I log onto this outstanding fount of wisdom on all things e-cig related and begin to trawl through old threads...vids...tip & tricks et al...got a tad side tracked at times i must admit...some interesting stuff on here.
Anyway I find several references to dripping and a few that suggested putting a few drops of juice on the atomiser first..."I'll give that a try" I say to myself...(I talk to myself a lot...usually get good advice in reply)...
I digress...so I select a new juice (having sniffed them all and decided this one smelled not too bad)...and I put 3 or 4 drops into the atomiser...fit it all together and once again suck...gently don't want to choke my sen again...WooHoo...vapour and some faint crackling type noises from inside the atomiser...and this new juice aint half bad either...enjoyed a happy spell sucking and blowing

So my question to those of you who are still awake and far more experienced in the gentle art of e-cig usage is this.....
Is this the way (or best way) to get it to produce vapour...I am quite happy to be corrected if I have got it wrong and would be pleased to be advised by others more versed in the art than I

ps...I know I have waffled on but I'm sure Chrissie will agree that Flynt loves to play with words...the more the merrier...I don't do short if it can be avoided...

Nods head in total agreement to Flynt loving to play with words

Flynt, I've never used a T type e-cig. But it sounds to me like the juice isn't been fed properly from your tanks to your atomiser. A lot of folks have problems with the type of tanks you are using - usually problems with leaking. You would do far better to get yourself some cartomisers.

direct dripping is the best way to get the best out of e-juice
the tanks tend to take away some of the flavour but are convenient to use

[Chrissie]

Thanks Chrissie and everyone else.
Daughter has been using the same one as I for awhile...she said her V5T 510-T leaks a bit...I haven't had that problem yet...is it age related...

Cartomisers...ok I recognise the name but wouldn't know where to start...are they 1 size fit's all or do I need ones which are specific to the V5T 510-T and if so where do I look...by that I mean size/types/styles etc etc.

If they had an engine now...Motorbikes n Trikes and I know...cartomisers n e-cigs are a whole new world for me...

I didn't get on with those plastic tank thins either

These cartos will be fine

your e-cig is a 510 fitting so any with a 510 fitting will fit

Thank you very much Karma...

As a Pagan I have followed your guidance for many years

I do like the KISS method...it suits me very well...have just spent the day trying to decipher new motorbike licencing laws due in Jan 2013...still non the wiser except for a growing conviction that the DVLA do not subscribe to the "plain English" campaign...am awaiting a simplified reply...yes I know Pigs will fly 1st but I live in hope...LOL
