A newly filled carto will last you as long as your current ones do, if not longer. I use cartos and with topping them up, I can get one to last me around a week before the taste and draw drops off to almost nothing.

I think when the guy says his lasts a couple of hours he means that the flavour is stronger and he gets a better draw on it in those 2 hours.

If you're really trying to save money you can actually clean them and re-use them by slow boiling them in a pan of clean water for around 15mins although it takes an age as you may have to re-boil them 6-8 times then dry them overnight, whereas you can pick up 5 boges Standard resistance for around £6.

You don't "need" a drip tip, they just make it easier than prying off the white cap when you want to top them up. To do this I just use the tip of a fork and they just pop off.

The first time I use a new cartomiser I use the condom method and then after that you can just top them off.

I top mine up just dripping the juice straight from the bottle on to the white filler inside drop by drop on a bit of kitchen paper, just try not to get the juice down the hole in the middle (you can blow this out anyway so don't worry too much about it). After I've topped it up (It'll start dripping through the carto on to the paper) I turn it over and blow through it from the threaded end to clear any bits that went down the tube, wipe the thread of any stray juice and pop the lid back on (or put a drip tip on).

For me it all sounded a bit daunting filling them up and I really couldn't be bothered with it but now it's something I enjoy doing as I know once I've done it is when it'll taste the nicest. Just think your prefilled ones are never going to taste as fresh as a newly filled one at home.

[edited to add the condom method and make a little more sense]

Kirsty, I much prefer your diagnosis. It's so much cheaper not having to change anything

I've gone back to my old stuff now and all seems reasonably well now.

Seriously, I'd not even thought that my body might at some point be angry with me for taking away something it's had every day for the last 20+ years.

no, corriander, cardomon and lemon grass.I love peppers &chillies.

Strange but from vaping 18 and 20mg content juice (and nearly chain-vaping in the mornings) I decided on some new flavours of 24mg juice to maybe get to the point where I vape less often, I'm having mild palpitations and feeling decidedly odd. Now could this be down to the strength or could it be that I'm having an allergic reaction to something in the juice? I'm allergic to coriander, cumin and tbh most aromatic flavours and the reaction I'm having is also like when I'm having a mild reaction to foods containing evil.
Any ideas if I could be having a reaction to the flavours or the extra 4mg nic content?

Disclaimer: I'm aware that these will be your opinions not vetted medical advice so I'm after your take on this.

Also, what mg of liquid would I need to add to this to take them down to 18mg? 24 + 16 = twice as much @ 20mg?

Not so far!
Blimey I'm always hungry now, I didn't realise quite how much I used the cigs as an appetite supressant until now.
I never used to have an issue about going without breakfast (and haven't had breakie for years) but I get to lunchtime and I'll eat someone's arm off if they get in between me and my food.
I do notice that mornings for me are when I tend to sit in a mist of vapour in the hope that it'll take my hunger away. Once I've eaten I can forget to pick up my e-cig for an hour or so.

Don't I know it
