Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

heh, took so long to scroll down i was half expecting you to have added flames at the bottom in paint

bulli looks pretty nice on an ego

I will! I'm rather excited now! hopefully a good sign! I have been thinking about buying them for ages and I had bookmarked this page but once you read past the first page of posts (which I had thought made me 100% informed) it got really confusing! Now I am all set and I know what to do when crap needs replaced too! Thanks for all your help I probably would be still just toying with this idea in two months if you never replied I don't like buying stuff unless I know what its up to! I shall be back with an update! Ciara

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

i was the same way with this thread, posted it in all excited and curious soon after it was made


then actually bought one 10 months later

Why do the vapour store not stock cartomisers? Also, they seem to be out of a lot of stock I think. They are excellent to deal with although slightly expensive.

Got them! Tried out the Ry4 or whatever its called 11mg strength (even though i wasnt planning to until january!) and I quite like it! I am quite paranoid about the little coil cartomizer thing drying out when it makes the crackling noise when i'm puffing on it but I also know It doesnt need filled every ten minutes lol two main questions now I have are
1 how often should I top it up / refill it? Based on average usage (ill assume I am average)
2 the little jar of juice I got is 11mg - does this mean 11 mg in each dual cart thing or 11 in the whole jar? Im confused. I just dont want to be increasing my nicotine intake and i cant really find out any info on this....

I cant wait to try other flavours etc I have a few more here to try too and I am looking forward to buying apple lol the obsession is beginning (or in full swing....)

Thanks again for the help I managed to figure out how to charge it all by myself O_o

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

as for the nicotine strength thing.. I have no ****ing idea how that works

someone explained it to me last year, i understood it for about five minutes and then forgot it all again
but unless you smoked 1 cigarette a day, I doubt you'd be geting more nicotine than you're used to on 11mg. unless you drink the juice or something

the crackling is pretty normal, dont worry about it. as for how often to fill it.. it's a good idea to keep them wet (but not flooded. if you're confused about the distinction, don't worry about it. you'll get the hang of it shortly enough). if you're going to keep vaping the same flavour in a dual coil cartomizer then it's no harm to just drop a little bit in after a few hours. if you want to try out a new flavour then just keep vaping away until you get a sort of dry taste, or the vapour/flavour production drops off enough to be noticeable then add your new flavour

you'll recognise the taste of a cartomizer that needs juice. if you dont recognize it the first time, you'll *never* forget it again and unless you're an idiot like me you'll never let yourself taste it again.

11mg means 11 milligrams nicotine per milliliter of liquid; equals a 1.1% concentration of nicotine in the liquid.

11mg is the strength of the juice.
As an example, to get the same strength as B+H, the equivalent juice would be 16mg. I think silk cut light are comparable to 6mg (as a rough guide).

1ml volume of the juice (I think there's either 3 or 5 ml in the cartomiser? )
is supposed to have the same nicotine content as 20 cigs of that strength, according to the maths.
But, there are questions about how well nicotine is absorbed when vaping v. smoking.
Most vapers would say it's less than that.

Don't panic too much about the amount of nicotine to start off with, would be my advice. You'll know you're getting too much if you start feeling jittery, anyway.:D (very unlikely to happen at 11mg strength, anyway, unless, as Sir Digby said, you're used to smoking about 2 fags a day.)
Just get used to vaping v. smoking first, then start adjusting the nicotine content.

Hope this helps.

Placed an order with thebestshop.eu for 150ml of eliquid and a battery, 50ml of liquid has arrived with the battery, but the other 100ml is still missing. Has this happened to anyone before?

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

did you order them all in one order? or 50ml in one order and the other 100ml in the second?

if it's all in two orders wait a day or two (ugh, be next week then I guess) but if you ordered it all in the one order fire thebestshop an email

Ordered them all in one go 3 X 50ml bottles and a battery.

Invoice that came with the first order had ticked off the two items I received but not the other 2.

Might be a dry Christmas or I will have try and vape those terrible double shot eliquids

I have no idea, I'm always asking them to get them in and they always tell me they'll look into it but they still don't stock them

Strange. They are losing business because they don't stock them. Usually somebody would buy some juice at the same time. At this stage, I think the cartomisers are a must have for the eCig shops.

Found an interesting link well the table in it once you decipher it ! I'll try post it here though wondering if I am allowed to do so as s newbie

They don't seem to introduce new products very often. There aren't many still doing prefilled cartridges and they do seem to be a bit on the expensive side and no free shipping. Still, they do provide a very good service and next day delivery.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

aye I made a pretty big mistake on an order before and they were very helpful about it, didn't even call me an idiot once

Happy New Year! Hope everyone is doing good esp if this is your first full day off smoking! Good luck (in a non Liam Neeson 'Taken' tone)

Getting on good with these boyos so far actually like the chocolate vapor not too sweet but feels effective!

they may become much more accessable although in fairness my local chemist did have what seemed like a generic brand of ecigs for a while but they have stopped stocking them now which seems a little unfair to those who just need new carts who bought the rest of the components at the start.... Irrelevant thought!
