Hi Karen, I'm new to this too, and have the Riva that you have ordered. It's fab! I've never been on such a friendly forum as this, it's full of kind people who will help you with any queries you have, it was all double Dutch to me too and the lovely posters here helped me a great deal. I'm now down to 3 roll-ups a day, won't be long before I quit totally! Good luck with your Riva, you will love it I'm sure

Thanks romelee. I don't know what's just happened, but suddenly I seem to have no taste buds? ??? Where are my taste buds gone Being kicked off the iPad now by a disgruntled daughter. Apparently TMZ entertainment forum is more important than my missing taste buds. . Does she have no idea how bereft I am???

Thanks again all. Loving the new- look forum by the way! Right, it's come and I love it,! Few more questions though, sorry to keep asking but it's the only way to learn isn't it I have both batteries charged and running, with a clearo on one, and a carto on the other ( see, I know the lingo now! )' both with Grants Vanilla Custard in. I'm finding that although I prefer the look of the clearo ( I like to actually see the juice), the carto seems to taste better, because the clearo has a bit of a plasticky taste ??? Is that normal? I've also just ordered some lemon meringue juice to try, I've read that it seems popular on here, although G.V.C seems to be king, and I love it. Any other juice suggestions and help with clearo/carto stuff would be great. Thanks in advance.

I've ordered a riva deluxe kit, can't wait for it to come! And it's in PINK Now all I need to know is, what accessories can I buy for it, that are pretty and sparkly and girly-ish.? Can I get different mouth-bits and batteries and stuff in lovely colours? God, I'm spending more on this vaping lark than I did on smoking!!!

Thanks for all the advice. I do actually think I'm gonna get the Riva kit after all. should've listen to you all in the first place! I'm kind of getting a bit fed up constantly refilling the ecab, maybe I'm just vaping too much! Am I right in thinking the Riva will last a whole lot longer than the ecab between filling? Thanks again, good, speedy advice as always from fellow- forumites?

Hi all, it's me again! I'm having a few problems with my ecab that I'm hoping you can help with please. First off, I'm still LOVING vaping generally, and especially loving Grants Vanilla Custard! But here are the problems..... I'm finding that I'm having to recharge the batteries, like, A LOT! It seems that every few hours I have to change the battery? I've bought spares, so I always have 2 charging, but it seems a battery won't even last a night-out? But the biggest problem I'm having is that the Ecab seems to constantly leak a bit, I'm forever having to wipe it off? And it gets all over my hands? I'm making sure its done up properly but nothing seems to stop small bits leaking out? And going into my mouth. Also, every drag produces a horrible, loud gurgling sound, which is a bit embarrassing when in public I'm trying to make sure the mouth bit isn't full of condensation , but gradually it seems to fill up with condensation anyway, is that normal? It sounds like water going down a plug at times! ??? I really like the look of the ecab and want to try to persevere with it, but if I can't solve these little annoying problems I might have to get a different kit. I'm not totally off the stinkies ( look at me, using the terminology I've read on these brilliant forums! ) because of these little problems, although I'm still only smoking a couple a day. I'm sure if I get a handle on this, I will be off them for good though. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Well, 5 minutes after I posted earlier, Mr Postie very kindly brought me my Grants Vanilla Custard sample. SUch a fast delivery from ordering on Sunday, what a great service! Anyway....I've not stopped vaping since it arrived. I just can't stop! I LOVE IT Gorgeous , very moorish, not harsh at all, my e-cab may have to be surgically removed from my mouth! I'm even licking my lips in between vaping, just to taste vanilla custard on them. Will definitely be ordering a larger amount! I've still only had the one roll-up today too, is the nicotine content high in it, cuz I've had zero cravings? Will be ordering the Lemon Meringue one too, if I can only remember whereI saw it Also just ordered a carry-case and spare batteries for the e-cab. I can feel a bit of a spending addiction starting to take hold. Im thinking of filling a few mouth- bits (don't know what to call them, lol) with different juices, with a little label on them stating the flavour, so that I can swop them about when I want. Is it ok to store them like that, or will the flavours of the other juice come through when I swop it over? I'm just thinking, for example, that if I went to the village pub , I could have one juice before I eat, then swop it for Vanilla custard or some sweet juice, for dessert?

Have ordered a sample of Grants Vanilla Custard to try, I've got a good feeling about it I've also bagged a free sample of something fruity, so will see what arrives. I've decided not to try the Baileys though. After some initial teething problems, I'm loving my e-cab . I discovered that if you put the batteries into the USB charger the RIGHT way round, they charge and make the e-cab more satisfying I've also mastered the vamping technique and found that if I drag slowly and smoothly, as opposed to a quick hard suck (quiet at the back there!), I don't get a mouthful of something I don't want. (this is your last warning at the back! > ) Subsequently I've only had one roll-up today so far, and three yesterday. I'm just waiting for my new juices to arrive, but in the meantime I've managed to dilute the Virginia juice a little. It's not ideal but better than it was. So, now I have a few little questions If I buy the adapter for the e-cab, what does this actually open up to me in terms of what I can buy? Do I still use the clear mouthpiece bit? Same battery's etc? Thanks again all.

Thanks so much for all your help, this is an amazing forum! Ron, that's a good idea, I will pop into boots tomorrow and buy some glycerine, give it a go, thanks. Chrissie thanks for the video, very informative. Yep I'm holding down the button while I inhail, although I wasn't at first , lol. It does help. Thanks Dave, I did as you said and it definitely is better, not any seeping into my mouth now, thank god, cuz it was NASTY! Karma, yep I admit I ordered the ecab purely because I liked the colour , but after all your help I think I'm getting on ok with it now, although I've still got to find a juice I like. I'm not keen on menthol, so maybe will add something else to the Virginia? Sarah, I'm starting to lean towards the fruity flavours already, which is a surprise to me as I only thought I'd ever want tobacco flavours. So if anyone has any recommendations, I will research and carefully consider any that are suggested. I know finding the right juice is the clincher as to whether I succeed or fail at giving up baccy for good. I've been reading all the sub-forums on here, and it's mind- boggling really ??? I like the sound of a lot of different ones. I've enquired about a melon one, a custard one, and a lemon pie one, I've seen a baileys Irish Cream one, (my favourite drink!) and a white chocolate one (my favourite food ) So many to consider, lol. I want something smooth and creamy, not harsh. I guess the only way to know is to try them? Suggestions great fully received .

hi all, and thanks for your advice, it's very appreciated. I've taken the advice about not sucking too hard ( cue sniggers) and it definitely is helping, but I really don't like the Virginia juice, I'm finding it very harsh. I stupidly bought a 30ml bottle too There's also a loud wet-guzzlingie sound when I draw on the mouthpiece, not a nice sound! I thought that because I smoked roll-ups, with no filter, that I'd need something strong, but obviously this is too strong. Is there anything I can mix with it to make it smoother? I've looked at the sampler bottles posted by Gilles, and may give them a go, but I've already spent such a lot of money so I'm wary of ending up with just 1 or 2 small bottles that I like and it being a waste? I can't believe I'm even considering different flavours, lol...when I first looked on here I thought " why have any other flavour than tobacco? It seems daft, all I want is to replicate baccy! ". Now here I am wanting nice flavours! I've read the juice reviews but I'm confused. ( not hard,,granted, lol). What juice do you recommend that's smooth, tasty, and gives a throat-hit without making me cough my guts up. I have a sweet tooth, if that helps? Dunno if that's the way it works though? I've read about Vanilla custard, which had a lot of good reviews, and lemon meringue , both those sound nice.? Oh, and I'm using the e- cab, in case that's a deciding factor.

I could kill my Daughter! An hour ago I mentioned that my parcel hasn't come, and she said "oh, 2 parcels came for you earlier today, I put them in my room & forgot!" !!! > I rushed to open them, both my orders had come! So I've been trying them out, but my initial excitement has been tempered a little cuz I'm having a few teething problems? I've been trying the ecab, with the juice I ordered (Virginia), and first of all I found it too strong, it kind of burns the back of my throat, so I took lighter puffs, which helped a little, but now I'm having problems with the juice leaking out of the mouth piece into my mouth, and it's VILE! I took it apart, cleaned it out, re-filled it, and it's a bit better but still happening a bit? What am I doing wrong? I also tried the other kit, from KiMTrading, the extra slim ecig, but all I can taste on that one is a horrible plasticky taste. So I'm putting that one away and concentrating on the ecab for now. I love the look of it, but how do I stop the juice seeping into my mouth? Is the Virginia one known to be strong? And are there any juices anyone can recommend please? I know it's personal taste, and I thought I only wanted Baccy flavours, but already I'm wishing I had ordered a few small ones of other flavours to try. Like I said, probably only teething problems but I'd like to sort this out. Thanks in advance.
