So no water needed then, i will try that next time, how long are getting out of a V3 before needing to replace the head ? Did I put it that badly  Lots of water needed,always make sure the plugs in the sink lol,I am still on my first head on the V3,but only because I keep forgetting to buy some wick and wire,I got a good month and its still going,but just started using Novas instead as I got a LT My mistake, thought it would be a tough job with no water  I just got a kanger 5ml tank, its a bit of a lump but it does produce a load of vapour and its good for a few days vaping, im only a week in and ive got the kanger and four v3's on the go, cleaned a few up and left to dry overnight, good as new Think i'm hooked and not even wanting a ciggie, bloody brilliant  |

I tend to have mine apart and while like that,I just use some kitchen towel folded to an edge the push down onto the coil and top of the wicks,then gently squeeze the wick were it goes down the sides with the paper towel,then I re assemble add my juice,roll it around and let the clearo sit on its side for a couple of mins,within a few vapes they are off and running again,of course I am talking V3 and Novas,with the earlier visions you may want to give more drying time and dry burn each time So no water needed then, i will try that next time, how long are getting out of a V3 before needing to replace the head ? |

Is it really dry Captain? As it's surprising how much moisture the wicks can still hold, a quick blast with a hair dryer is an option, or if it's still a bit moist . . . the worst you'll find is that your vape is a bit watery/wimpy until it is properly dried out and juice replaces the possible dampness on the wicks. No don't think it was really dry, i wasn't sure if id damage it, risked it, like you say took a few vapes then away it went |

Cleaned one today for the first time, is it as simple as running under a hot tap, drying and away you go, i wasn't sure if i should leave it overnight to dry out ?

Vaping can dehydrate you a bit so up your water consumption! Some vendors will mix to a particular strength for you if you ask. alternatively you could buy 18mg and 8mg and use the 8mg to reduce the strength  Simple , thanks i will try that I did have 5 cans of lager last night as well , explains things |

Think ive been overdoing it a bit, is this something other people have experienced ?
Should i try some lower strength juice , i like the usa mix and i have been vaping the medium strength 18mg stuff.the lower strength is 8mg and i thought maybe something in the middle would be better, if i get usa mix from another vendor will it be the same ?
Or is this just because i am new to vaping ?
i need to order some more juice, so what do you think ?

3rd day for me,having a beer and feeling like a fag, been vapeing HS delight and loving it but that lager and fags thing was always going to be a challenge, filled a new clearomizer with some usa mix and am trying it for the first time, bit sweeter but its got me back on track.
Think i will get me some high nicotine HS delight for the pub, i so dont want to smoke

this is my first full day without a ciggie and i have to say its been great, just trying some 666 juice and its Lush, cant work out if its just me but does this juice leave an odour when you cape it, i thought juice is odourless ?
And cheers for the advice Dave, i came close today to running out of juice today , i thought i had plenty but it seemed to disappear pretty quickly , if you do burn the wick does it damage the cart ?

Well both really, i see the wick looks full of juice whilst the chamber has almost no juice in it, is it ok to continue t use it until it does dry up or does that damage it , i take it when the vapour drops off and its full of juice thats time to change the wick ?
Sorry if this is unclear, I'm not great at communicating via a keyboard about things i know nothing about, its probably gonna be obvious when it happens .

Well thanks again for all the warm welcomes, hopefully i have smoked my last fag. My Vision 1000 arrived today ( super quick delivery ) and i have been chuffing away on it for a couple of hours, very impressed with the amount of vapour it produces and loving the taste of the HS Delight . One thing i have noticed after about a half hours use is an almost sweet sticky residue feel to the mouthpiece , i hope this is just the result of burning the juice and not anything to worry about, i kind of like it  . Also how do you know when the cartomizer is done, is it a vapour loss or taste loss or both or what ? Glad so many of you like the Avatar, Pugwash is hero of mine |
