Hi folks,

It's been quite a while since I've posted on here, as I fell off the wagon and went back to the dirty real cigarettes I've now decided that I want to quit the real ones again and go back to my trusty tasty e-cig but I'm having some issues now.. I'll try and explain and not bore you too much. I'm fully expecting I've done something wrong to cause this but I have no idea what, and I'm really hoping someone can tell me if there's a way I can fix this or if I just need to buy a new kit.

So the kit I have was bought quite a long time ago, and I believe it was called the Echo 510. When I decided to start using it again, I found that the cartomisers that came with it were no longer any good, so went looking for replacements. I popped onto the website I had used originally and decided I'd try a clearomiser this time, so I bought the Kanger T3D Dual Coil Clearomiser as I couldn't remember at the time whether that was the right fitting or not.

It arrived, and I tried it on the battery and it seemed to fit perfectly, so I filled it with juice but found I couldn't get it to produce any vapour.

Then I remembered that the battery is a 510 fitting, not an ego (I'm not sure what the difference is), so I went back onto the website thinking I'd buy a new battery, and instead found a 510 to ego-t adapter. I thought for a couple of quid, it's got to be worth a try. But it hasn't helped the situation

Basically, what's happening is, if I connect the clearomiser directly to the battery and push the button, the button lights up as normal but when releasing it, it stays on for a couple of seconds then shuts off. Whereas under normal operation with the cartomisers that came with it, when releasing the button it fades out, and it does it a bit quicker.

Then, when I add the adapter, on pushing the button it just flashes three times.

Unfortunately I don't know what these light sequences mean and I've lost the instructions to the kit. I'm fully expecting I've done something daft that's caused this, but I'm really hoping someone will be able to point me in the right direction so I can get it right this time.

Many thanks in advance.

Right!

First of all, apologies all for taking so long to get back on here, it's been a hectic week!

Thanks everyone for the welcoming messages, and I'm amazed my thread was so easy to find after almost a week away from the forum, so thanks HeadHunter for making the remarks that have kept the thread on the front page

So now to my experiences in the past week...

I think I ordered my kit on the Sundat night, and my kit arrived on Tuesday morning in a lovely presentation box with al the stuff I ordered, as well as a syringe for the first fill on the Echomisers, a free drip-tip and a free sample bottle of aniseed juice that Jason very kindly threw in for me (thanks Jason!)

He also put in a couple of pages of instructions and tips to get me started and continue successful vaping, so thanks for that too..

Turned out it was very sound advice to buy a separate atomiser and drip tip as the first juice I tried from my pickNmix (apples'n'pears) wasn't that nice IMO, so I was very glad I hadn't filled a 2ml Echomiser with the stuff.

Next one I tried was 666, which is awesome! I've been on that one all week and really like the taste. I think I had two pulls on the sampler kit before I'd decided to fill an Echomiser.

I had tried the kit and a couple of flavours on the Tuesday night after receiving the kit at the office, and had my first full day using the e-cig exclusively on Wednesday. I haven't had an analogue since. The e-cig has done the job perfectly, dealing with my cravings and giving me the peace of mind that I'm not filling my lungs with an undisclosed quantity of dangerous chemicals. It's also been really nice to not have to go outside to have a smoke.

The Echo has been so successful in my house that my wife (also a smoker) tried it on the night I brought it home, and immediately asked if she couold try it for a while too.

So she's stolen my second battery and one of the other Echomisers along with the Toffe Popcorn juice, and has also not had an analogue since Tuesday night. So I've converted another person to vaping within 10 minutes of my first try of it!

Also after my initial reservations after finding out the Echo is 6 inches long, I'm glad I bought it as it doesn't feel as big as I thought it would

Thanks all for the advice, tips and welcomes, now I must go and order some more 666 juice.

I'm about to try the chocolate tabac in a few minutes too..

Wow, really! That seems pretty big. Is that about normal for these devices?

Is that for extra battery life and/or the larger capacity for the juice?

Ok I think I'm getting the idea now...

So if I was to buy the Echo 510 mega kit:

A pick n mix of a few flavours, and an echomiser drip tip:

Would I be good to go for trying it out then?
