I get my 801 carto's from Eastmall and have about 200 in all, of the 60 I've used already I've only had two dead ones.

I am a little concerned about some folk who have made the decision to try supermarket flavourings and so felt compelled to offer the following :
These flavourings are considerably weaker than than the ones associated with vaping i.e. F'art, LorAnn, DV, TPA, etc....
In my experience they also tend to lose their flavour in mixes quite quickly.
And finally can in most cases be quite harsh.
I would not recommend these for use myself. However, having said that I do use Asda Rum flavouring myself, but that is only because I can't find any decent Rum flavourings from the normal supliers.
So try at your own risk.

Yes but they are noobs searching for that ciggie taste. In a few months they'll soon change their minds. Or most will anyway.

You should give my Whiskey Cream recipe a go, that should put a smile on your face.

You must have very tiny hands if you think the Box 101 is too big. My hands are quite small for a bloke and it fits mine really well.

Yes LorAnn flavourings do come in what's known as Dram sizes, which is just over 3ml. I only use a few LorAnn flavourings myself, but I would'nt agree that they are weak, or at least not the ones I use anyway.

Being an exclusive 5v vaper I do love my Box 101, it's small, fits in the hand nicely has a good battery run time (10-12 hours fairly heavy vaping) and has an on/off switch.
Before aquiring my Box 101 I moded a Kensington Power pack which uses 2 X 7w lithium polymer batteries (the flat kind) and lasts a good 18 hours from full charge.

Skylla when you say "you can use food flavourings" I take it that your refering to Supermarket flavourings.
If so I'd just like to mention that all of the flavour vendors i.e. LorAnn, TPA, FF (faeries finest), etc where originally intended for foods. As far as I know only Flavourart brought out their flavouring range aimed at the e-cig market, although I'm not sure about the Decadent Vapours range from TW.

Be careful using Supermarket flavourings as they are quite a bit weaker than the flavourings used in mixing. If you do want to try them then just make sure they are either water or alcohol based and not extracts or oil based.
IF YOUR NOT SURE DO NOT USE THEM!

If you are going to add flavourings to your pre-mixed juices then I would advise caution, just use small ammounts to experiment with to start off or you could end up ruining the whole batch.
If you ever do want to have a go at mixing Drop me a PM and I'll take you through it step by step so you wont get it wrong.
GUARANTEED

You do'nt mention if your high nic juice is unflavoured or not.
If it is unflavoured then just dilute it with PG or VG to take down the nic strength.
However, as mentioned above if your juice is flavoured then you will indeed weaken the flavour.
When adding flavourings to juices, whether flavoured or unflavoured, it's a good idea to use only a few mls at a time as you do'nt want to ruin the whole batch of juice and end up having to throw it away.
If it is unflavoured juice your using you might want to take a look at my post on mixing in the Mixology section where I cover using flavourings.

I have come accross issues with juices and sore mouth/throat problems, for example if I vape Cinnamon for prolonged periods of time I get an inflamation on the inside of my lips. I love Cinnamon, but unfortunately it does'nt like me.
Then there is a friend of mine that gets a sore throat if he vapes Rum flavoured juices for too long.
In your case it would certainly seem that the juice is'nt at fault so maybe you should allow your atty to cool between vapes as that seems to be the culprit.

Yes it's the same with me Roachie, first thing in the morning and night time. Although there are folk who do'nt vape tobacco juices at all anymore and seem to manage with fruit or other non-tobacco flavoured juices.
Makes me wonder if this is dependent on length of time spent smoking ciggies.
