Q: Here you go mate... Vaporbreak. It's China. lol. We have just had a delivery of 930ml of RY4 & Virgin Tobacco e-liquid from here. Hangsen. I can recommend Vaporbreak. You have to wait for the delivery but that's okay with me. This last order should last my Mrs for a year and it cost me approx £100 including Fedex! As for the Aerotank, I will pass this info on to the Mrs. Thanks for that. dreamylittledream: Wow! Thanks for all that info. I like what you said about the 'work of the devil'. lol. About right I think. Janet's always got tissue handy on her desk cause of the leakage problems. I'm sure that any of your suggestions would help her no end. Cheers. Much appreciated. sammy13: Clearomizer? I get mixed up all the time. Seems that some websites say one thing and others say another. Don't take much to get me confused nowadays. Really appreciate your views on those you described. And thanks for the links too! I will bookmark those. Thanks all. Really great to have all your feedback on this. My Janet has been vaping now for a year and 8 months and I am really proud of her for dropping the smoking after 40+ years. I don't smoke or vape, but I want her to have the best so that she can enjoy her vaping experience. The leakage thing is the last thing to sort out. (for now. lol). Cheers!

Hi all. Having got my Mrs to move to vaping over a year ago, we have learnt about the variety of things vaping related. She's had various batteries including the Vamo and more recently a Vision Spinner. However one thing that constantly lets her down is the cartomizers. She generally goes for the standard CE4/CE5 carts, but a lot of the time they leak! Can anyone offer any suggestions of an alternative type of cartomizer that would fit her batteries? In fact, we don't even know if all these different carts have different screw threads!! So any advice would be appreciated. We usually shop from Vapourbreak, and they seem to have a wide selection of carts. Can maybe someone suggest one off there? Thanks.  |

My partner Janet has been vaping now for over a year and in that time we have learnt a fair bit on e-cigs etc. But one thing that I often wonder, does e-liquid have a lifespan while stored in a bottle that it comes in? I have yet to see a 'use by' date on any that we have purchased. Is there a general rule with e-liquid, i.e. must vape it all in 6 months etc?
One of the reasons for asking this, is that I might consider buying in a huge supply for her in advance, so she don't have to keep ordering all the time.
Any info on this would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Oh my God. Just come back online and wow!
Thanks to all your responses. (BEST support on a forum EVER!)
So many good recommendations and an offer too! I will report to the boss and see what she says. Really appreciate everyone's advise on this. I'm overwhelmed! lol.
Thank you all so much.
I will be back to let you all know what I get for her. Keeping this quiet from her at the mo. She deserves a nice pressie after quitting smoking baccy after 40 odd years. Never thought I'd see the day. And to be honest, it's all thanks to you guys for all your great info and help.
Thank you all.

Okay, being a relative noob to the scene I recently got my Jan in vaping and never looked back. She loves it, and I'm loving the non-SMOKING home.  Now I am so thrilled with how she has done after smoking for 40+ years that I am going to make sure that she has some really good setup for vaping. We started off with the TECC Titan Tank e-cigs, then went on to the Ego-T, now I'm looking at buying her a nice little Birthday present in June. I am looking at possibly buying her this new Vamo... Vamo 2
Do you think that she will like this? Being a non-smoker I value all of your opinions on this.  I obviously don't want to go spending too much on a product as I would rather spend on getting her plenty of different flavours to try etc first. Thanks. |

Sorry read it wrong conked out not gunked up lol. If you have wick already then why not get some wire and re wick/re coil the heads yourself? Sent from my Galaxy Note 2 I've just ordered earlier today a new head/coil for our ce5 rebuildable. In the meantime, this looks a good deal... www.e-smokeless.co.uk/#/shop/4570133690/Vivi-Nova-3ml-Tank-with-3-spare-heads/5566710What do you think? Just want something that lasts more than 2 weeks!  |

Thanks for that roscopecotrain. (Dukes of Hazzard? ...ahem..) We have got a 5m length of spare wick, but the coils themselves seem to be conking out rather than it being wick problems. I blame Jan for puffing away on it like mental. lol. Are these mini-nova's better quality then? |

My Jan has now been vaping for 10+ weeks and we are still really beginners at all this. So far she uses her TECC Titan Tank kit, and more recently the black-battery'd ego-t e-cigs. She prefers the latter due to the amount of vapour they produce. Unfortunately we seem to go through a ton of the carts with the ego-t. As we found that they don't last, we decided to go for the rebuildable ones so that we can replace the wick etc. But just like the non-rebuildable ones, these knacker up after a week or two too!
In the meantime, the original Titan Tank ones are working perfectly fine! At the time I actually considered these to be expensive, but now looking at the hassle with the ego-t carts, I would now say that we paid for better quality. Unfortunately the 'vapour satisfaction' is not as good.
Can anyone make any suggestions on what we should consider doing next?
If the ce4/ce5 carts are rubbish, then are there better ones that we can use with the ego-t batteries? Or should we be looking at buying a better device altogether?
Any help would be appreciated.

Firstly, I just want to congratulate my Mrs for passing three weeks without 'smoking'. And all because she started vaping instead! Well done Mrs. Proud of ya!  Now I first bought her a Titan Tank setup, which is still going perfectly fine, albeit, many charges. But in the last couple of weeks she has been using a CE4 ego-t e-cig. Which at the time seemed to be a load better. At least with the amount of vapour it produced. Unfortunately we have had problems. The battery is fine, couldn't complain at all. (Using a 1100mah). But it's the damned cartomizer thing. The first one clogged up bad so I attempted a clean with warm water, then doing that burn dry thing. But it just ended up hardly working after that. So I threw that one away and I bought her a rebuildable one with a 5m length of wick. Today I replaced the wick and while I did, I gave it a quick clean. Afterwards I ended up with the same problem. Not much vapour. She tells me that she still gets her 'hit' with it, but the vapour is almost nothing. I don't understand what is going on. There's hardly anything to these things and I've only followed the instructions laid out on videos/forum etc. So right now she is going back to the original Titan e-cig as that never has problems at all. (for the moment) Anyone else had this vapour problem with the CE4 ego-t? |

You could buy some wire / wick and rewick the head yourself. I tend to rewick about 10 heads in one go and then switch them out as and when required. Somehwhere on here there is a tutorial on rewicking heads. Yes, I think I need to get her some 'backups' on the ready. I noticed you can buy these in packs, so I think I will order a pack for her. In the meantime I am confident enough after everyone's help for me to give her current one a clean now. Thanks everyone. Very much appreciated. |

Unscrew the mouthpiece but be careful as it has a small silicon o-ring on it that is easily lost, half fill the tank with hand hot water and with your finger over the top, shake vigorously. Repeat until the wick has gone back to as near white as you can get it then leave it to air dry. You can then do a "dry burn" which is just pressing the fire button for 5 or 6 seconds then leave for 5 to 6 seconds and repeat until it stops smoking. Give it another rinse with warm water and let it air dry again, then you can refill, screw the mouthpiece back on and it should be like new again. If you do a search on Youtube you can find most of your questions answered Have a look here:- Hey, thanks for that. I've just watched the video too. Nice one. |

We recently purchased a CE4 e-cig, and my Mrs loved it. One of the things that she was really impressed by was the amount of vapour that it produced, as this added to the effect of smoking a 'real' cigarette. However I have noticed how after a week the vapour is not as prominent as before?  When I look at the bit that stores the liquid (can you tell I'm a noob? lol), the 'wicks' look clogged up. Or is this the normal look? If this needs cleaning out or whatever, what do I do? Can I simply push water through it with a syringe maybe? Please forgive my noobness on this but I'm still learning.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Just a quick update.. I can now report that after 11 days my Janet has STILL not touched a 'real' roll up. I went with some of your advice and purchased the CE4 from E-Smokerless and she loves it! She says it's much better than using the Titan e-cig thing. Much more satisfying and closer to real smoking. She is also on RY4 which she also likes. She says that she is going to try some different flavours shortly including Cappacino, Dentine etc.etc. lol. I can't thank you all enough. I never thought I'd see the day that I'd see my Janet finish with normal fags. I am bowled over. So much so, that I keep telling her that I'm going to get one myself and buy chocolate flavour (without the nicotine of course) as I'm feeling left out. lol. Incidentally, this CE4 e-cig (with 1100mah battery) lasts her pretty much all day on one charge. Amazing! Titan was just 2-3 hours, then it needed a charge. |

My 5ml samples came this morning from Paradise Vape. Benson Fences and Royal. With a free sample of 'Marshmallow'. 8D She is going to try out the Benson Fences one today to see how that is. As suggested by your good selves, I ordered the 38mg version. What she currently has is 18mg. I will get her signed up on here later herself. Super support from you all. I'm overwhelmed! |
